RIP. In addition to being a genuinely funny unforgettable character, Biz is a legit tremendous party DJ and his ear for beats made his initial three/four album run one of the most consistent in the genre's history.

(slight language warning)
If you're only familiar with "Just a Friend," check out his 'I Need a Haircut' album.
Or track down the "The Essential Biz Markie" collection.

According to a couple of accounts on Twitter, he hasn't passed away yet but is in hospice care and they don't expect him to survive past the weekend. Regardless, this sucks. Between "Just A Friend" and his work with Beastie Boys, he was a huge part of my teenage years.

This story was broken by Diddy's REVOLT TV, an actual music cable channel with a social media presence, and when word got out that Biz was still alive, they just deleted all their Biz-related posts.
No corrections. No accountability. Just vibes.

And since he is alive, going to go ahead and lock this thread.
