They should really lower the retirement age for blacks. They never make it to that age.

It's funny because it's true

They should also lower the retirement age for men, in general. Women live WAY longer than men, and yet their legal retirement age is LOWER than men. How could that possibly make sense? Legally, women work WAY less years than men do, and yet, they draw WAY more money out of Social Security than men do. It's weird, and sexist, and nobody ever talks about it.

I am no fan of rap "music"...........but honestly, how can anyone NOT like The Biz?

In a genre dominated by thuggish braggards spewing crap about money, bling, b*tches, guns & the size of their dick, The Biz was NOT afraid to make fun of himself & get down right goofy & had a geuine gift for creating a memorable hook.......no matter how deliberately off key it was!!

No one like him before.....& there will never be anyone like him ever again

RIP Marcel Theo Hall, the Clown Prince of Rap

R.I.P. Biz! Do yourselves a favor and listen to Biz sing Elton John's Benny and the Jets on the Beastie Boys album The Sounds Of Science: Beastie Boys Anthology, if you haven't heard it before.

Todd In The Shadows on YouTube did a One Hit Wonderland on Just A Freind & showed a short clip of him performing it live w/ them. Gonna have to check out the full version now.🤩

Is he the guy who would come on "Yo Gabba Gabba" and make all these funny mouth sounds? My son used to get a big kick out of him when he was small. Sad to see the guy go so young if it's the same dude.

Not a single post about this man....until he died. His fans are clearly posers.

Just because someone doesn't post on a movie forum about a musician they respected doesn't mean people are posers. Yeah, I didn't follow Biz Markie very closely but I respected the man enough to say R.I.P. He definitely did some cool shit and I respect that!

Gilbert Gottfried has 2 posts on his page right now, let that sink in. You’re not actually a fan if you don’t acknowledge a person’s existence until after they die. That makes you a complete tool.

Don't talk to a girl that says she just 'has a friend'

This guy was as wise as Yoda
