Biz Markie
Marcel Theo Hall, known professionally as Biz Markie, was an American rapper, singer, songwriter, DJ, and record producer who gained prominence during hip-hop's golden age. He was known for his comedic style and often called the "Clown Prince of Hip-Hop". Markie achieved mainstream success with his 1989 single "Just a Friend", which reached No. 9 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and became a platinum-certified hit. The song is widely regarded as a classic, featuring prominently in pop culture and recognized on VH1's list of the greatest hip-hop songs. During his career, Markie was associated with such influential hip-hop groups and labels as the Juice Crew collective and Cold Chillin' Records. Beyond his music, Biz Markie had an extensive presence in television and film, appearing in various roles and voiceovers in popular shows, movies, and commercials, including Men in Black II, Yo Gabba Gabba!, Empire, and SpongeBob SquarePants. He also appeared as himself in numerous television and radio broadcasts, and became a cultural personality beyond the music industry. From Wikipedia (
