Moore, who started his career as a stand-up comedian in the late 1960s, heard around that time a rhymed toast by a local homeless man about an urban hero named Dolemite, and decided to adopt the persona of Dolemite as an alter-ego in his act.

In 1975, Moore decided to create a film about Dolemite, using many of his friends and fellow comedians as cast and crew.
