Marcel Theo Hall. 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.
