Biz Markie "Just A Friend" {Old School Clip Of The Day*} DOUBLE UP!
Markie's career began in the early 1980s. He established his reputation as a beat-box artist. He was one of the original artists who helped producer Marley Marl build Cold Chillin' Records. MC Shan and Roxanne Shante were Marley Marl's and Cold Chillin' Records first acts. Biz beatboxed on Roxanne Shante's underground hit "Def Fresh Crew" (1986), which lent credibility to his recording career and put Cold Chillin' on the map. In the same year, Biz Markie's 'coming out' single, "Make the Music With Your Mouth, Biz", was released on Prism Records. He released his debut album, Goin' Off, which attracted a fair amount of attention, largely due to the lead single, Make the Music With Your Mouth, Biz. The album also featured the underground hit singles Nobody Beats The Biz!, The Vapors and Pickin' Boogers.
