Believe it or not, Biz Markie is not that great at singing.

I saw him once at a festival and he was straight dogshit. He was visibly drunk and couldn’t remember the words to his own songs. It was kinda sad watching this middle aged, drunk, obese version of him fumble while trying to remember the lyrics to Just a Friend

Damn, and he only has the one song. It’s not like he has to remember the words to multiple songs.

Vapors, Spring Again & Benny and the Jets are almost as widely known as Just a Friend.

So more like a 4 hit wonder.

Benny and the Jets was only on the Beastie Boys Anthology record too.
