Charlie Murphy shirt

WANNA STAY UP ON ALL THE FREE SHIRTS WE GIVE OUT LIKE THIS CHARLIE MURPHY SHIRT? MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW ON INSTAGRAM!

Well, we did a lot of these tribute shirts in 2016 because well…lots of absolute legends died. We lost, among others, David Bowie, Phife, Lemmy, Prince, Muhammad Ali, Gene Wilder, Leonard Cohen, and Carrie Fisher. It’s like half the people I loved (but never new) growing up have died last year.

If you’ve noticed, we like to give out free shirts. We did this first with the I Still Heart SF shirt, then the Broke As Fuck shirt, the Prince shirt, the Muhammad Ali shirt, the Fuck Donald Trump shirt, the Leonard Cohen shirt, the Carrie Fisher shirt. All folks gotta do is pay for shipping and handling.

We do this because it’s awesome to literally put a shirt on someone’s back. But we also do it because we figure, if you get one shirt for free, maybe you’ll buy one of the other great things from the store as well. This helps us keep the site running. That said, regardless of whether or not folks end up buying other stuff, it feels really good to be able to give something to people that they really love.

And that’s why we’re giving out this Charlie Murphy shirtJust use the code Darkness when you check out. (Ladies’ cut is here and the code is also Darkness).

Charlie Murphy was a comedic legend for anyone who came up watching the Chappelle Show. Sure he was Eddie Murphy’s little brother, but he came into his own in the early 2000s and his stories about Prince and Rick James were quite possibly the best sketches in the entire show. This shirt is obviously a reference to his famous “I’m Rick James Bitch!” sketch.

Enjoy your free shirt fellow broke-asses.
