Say He's Just A Friend - Rapper, Singer & Yo Gabba Gabba Star Biz Markie Dies At 57

 "HEY KIDS! Gather around for Biz's Beat of the Day!"
- DJ Lance Robertson, August 2007

We are so saddened to report the death of famous actor, singer and rapper Biz Markie who has assed away last night at the age of 57 years old.

Biz is known better for his famed career as a hip-hop raper back in the 90s. But it wasn't until regular appearances on the 2007 Nick Jr/Noggin powerhouse Yo Gabba Gabba! which put Markie firmly on the national stage. Markie was known better on that show as a man who would teach kids how to do simple beatbox riffs

RIP Biz Marker the man who was a legend of music and television. Thank you for a great amount of love for music and beatboxing. You will be dearly missed.

RIP Biz Markie (Say He's Just A Friend)
April 8, 1964-July 16, 2021
