December 12, 2011 The Biz !
This song is from 1993 when Rap was GOLDEN ! You know what I mean….the golden era of hip hop and rap music. Biz Markie is without a doubt one of the most funniest MC´s out there and did several incredible records. He was also the first rapper that got sued over an uncleared sample ! His song Alone Again (Naturally) was using a sample from Gilbert O´Sullivan original song with the same name. Biz Markies label Cold Chillin´Records was singned to Warner Music at that time (1991) and after this lawsuit all samples must be cleared with the original artist before being used. Biz responded in 1993 with the mischievously titled album All Samples Cleared!
