Movies:
Way too many to mention, although here is a link to his site with his entire biography including his filmography.

Although Richard Pryor obviously was not involved in hip hop, I grew up watching Richard Pryor movies and judging by the amount of references to Pryor by so many rappers from Dre Dog to K Rino and the countless tracks over the years to use Pryor samples in their hooks It's obvious that alot of rappers were also huge fans of him, so I decided to give him the respect he deserves.

Here is just one of hundreds of tracks to use a Pryor sample for the hook.

MP3:
King Tee - Super Nigga
