In 2004, Charlie embarked upon a sold-out national comedy tour, the "I'm Rich Bitch" tour, featuring "Chappelle's Show" cast members Donnell Rawlings and Bill Burr. In 2005 his stand-up career continued to grow with a sold-out follow up tour, "Charlie Murphy and Friends" as well as a co-headlining tour with Mike Epps.
