Biz Markie - This Is Something For The Radio
Review by Juanta R Marpaung
Biz Markie's album "This Is Something For The Radio" is a classic hip-hop masterpiece that showcases the rapper's unique style and talent. Featuring catchy beats, witty lyrics, and memorable hooks, this album is a must-have for any hip-hop fan.
The album opens with the infectious title track, which sets the tone for the rest of the album. From there, Biz Markie takes listeners on a journey through his world of humor, storytelling, and social commentary.
Standout tracks include "The Dragon", which features a funky beat and hilarious lyrics about a mythical creature, and "Mudd Foot", which has a catchy chorus and a message about staying true to oneself.

About Biz Markie
Biz Markie (born Marcel Hall 8th April 1964 in Brooklyn, New York ; died 16 July 2021) was an American rapper best known for humorous singles like "Just a Friend".
Markie's career began in the early 1980s as a performer, then a human beatbox for MC Shan and Roxanne Shante, among others. He signed to the Cold Chillin' record label in 1988 and released Goin' Off, an underground hit. "Just a Friend" (from The Biz Never Sleeps) was released the following year, and it became a mainstream hit in the United States.
As one of hip hop's biggest stars of the time, Biz had a lot of pressure for his third album, I Need a Haircut. The album was a commercial disaster, exacerbated by a lawsuit from Gilbert O'Sullivan for sampling "Alone Again (Naturally)" in the song "Alone Again". The lawsuit, Grand Upright Music, Ltd. v. Warner Brothers Records, Inc., changed hip hop forever, as afterwards, all samples were cleared with the original artist before they could be used.
Biz continued his career in 1993, releasing All Samples Cleared!, but the record was another commercial disappointment. For the next few years, Biz worked with the Beastie Boys occasionally, began DJing and kept a low profile.
In 2002, Biz appeared in Men in Black II with Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones.
In 2005, Biz was featured on the VH1 television reality show, "Celebrity Fit Club
