Película basada en la vida del cómico Rudy Ray Moore, quien a menudo incluía en sus monólogos rimas bastante explícitas sobre distintos asuntos sexuales como las prostitutas, los proxenetas y los gigolós.

Moore llegó a lo más alto en los años 70, cuando sus grabaciones poco conocidas empezaron a hacerse populares entre la comunidad negra.
