  Rudy Ray Moore - Biography - Moviefone
Moore began incorporating "Dolemite" and other toasts into his act, as well as expanding on the suggestive humor of Redd Foxx with explicit profanity and crude jokes about life on the ghetto streets.
Moore followed with a number of X-rated comedy platters, all recorded in his own home with friends as the audience (which led them to be dubbed "party records").
With Moore as the titular pimp-hero (wearing a dazzling array of funky outfits), a harem of kung fu-fighting prostitutes, corrupt white politicians, and plenty of excuses for Moore to perform snippets of his nightclub act, the film was an outlandish, ridiculous vehicle for the comedian that successfully brought his vision to the screen.

The sexually explicit rhymes of Rudy Ray Moore (aka Dolemite), considered the predecessor of rap, had to be sold from behind the counters of record stores brave enough to carry them.
Sadly, Moore is more adept with sleaze than soul, and only the rumbling lesbian lament "Willa Mae" gets the juices flowing in that old-fashioned Dolemite way.
Thankfully, Moore has musically minded fans who, inspired by his lowbrow career, are determined to keep the X-rated party-album legacy alive.

 RUDY RAY MOORE
Rudy Ray Moore, a stand up comedian, created the "mack" character of Dolemite, a crafty, foul-mouthed crime boss stud who raps stories to the masses and kicks serious butt whenever he gets the urge.
Put simply, this is one great party movie: Moore's nasty rap numbers, his nonsensical and profane putdowns, and heavy doses of comical sex and violence make for one seriously fun and highly bizarre ride.
Moore explains that the film is one of his favorites, then vanishes completely for 99% of the film.

 Shaolin Dolemite | The A.V. Club
For one thing, the vast majority of the soundtrack consists solely of fighting sounds that might as well have been left over from the original film, and the new footage of the way-past-middle-age Moore cursing up a storm is beyond clumsily integrated.
It would be nice to report that it's a hilarious campfest along the lines of Moore's earlier films, but it's not; it's just lazy, exploitative, and devoid of laughs.
Those still jonesing for Moore's comic stylings are probably better off waiting for his next film, in which (God help us) he reprises his Dolemite character alongside Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J in the upcoming Insane Clown Posse film.

 Barnes & Noble.com - Music: 21st Century Dolemite, Rudy Ray Moore, CD
Eat out More Often (1970), the album that made Moore an underground star, was X-rated party humor that would have made Redd Foxx blanch, and Moore's first album of the millennium, the appropriately named 21st Century Dolemite, leaves no doubt that he hasn't mellowed a bit with the passing of time.
Moore revived his long-dormant career as an R&B singer, and 21st Century Dolemite is divided between dizzying rude standup comedy and equally raunchy songs that document Moore's continuing obsession with sex.
As a singer, Moore isn't going to make anyone forget Wilson Pickett or Bobby Womack, but he's not bad, and he has the good sense to talk over the notes he can't hit.
