* {{Glurge}}: His hippy-soul album, ''Love's Alright'', is about as sappy as it gets. Hearing a foul-mouthed comedian singing about world peace and the racial equality is near-impossible to take seriously.

* ValuesDissonance: ''Delirious'' features a lot of jokes about "AIDS spreading homosexuals," this being [[ScienceMarchesOn when it was believed that the disease only affected LGBT people]], and is now considered both [[DudeNotFunny deeply unfunny and extremely offensive]]. During his CareerResurrection in 2019, Murphy talked frankly about how ignorant he and so many others were about the subject back then, and [[OldShame he’d never do jokes like that now]].
