  Marley Marl - Music Downloads - Online
Bio: One of hip-hop's first (and finest) superproducers, Marley Marl was an early innovator in the art of sampling, developing new techniques that resulted in some of the sharpest beats and hooks in rap's Golden Age.
Marl was born Marlon Williams on September 30, 1962, and grew up in the Queensbridge housing project in Queens, NY.
Marl trumped it by helming "The Bridge," an ode to Queensbridge by his cousin MC Shan that became the unofficial Queens rap anthem and inspired a spirited feud with Bronx native KRS-One.

In 1984, Marley Marl (Marlon Williams) accidentally produced the first sample of a drum-machine and began a career as producer of innovative electro-funk tracks, notably the Super Kids' The Tragedy (1985).
New York hip-hop producer Marley Marl (Marlon Williams), who made his reputation with Roxanne Shante's Roxanne's Revenge (1984), was largely responsible for creating the sound of "rap-party" based around the new sampling techniques, a skillful combination of James Brown grooves and drum loops.
Marl represented the new, professional face of hip-hop: whereas the early rappers were perfectly happy to make records with a turntable and a voice (and no instruments), now the dj had evolved into a producer, and the breakbeat had often been replaced by a band.

Simply put, Marley Marl is a legend and is not only the greatest producer to ever step behind the boards, but is without a shadow of a doubt one of the most influential figures in Hip Hop history.

At 39 years of age, veteran rap producer Marley Marl's return to recording came as part of the London-based BBE (Barely Breaking Even) label's Beat Generation series.
One would have thought that a super-producer of Marl's caliber would fetch a number of name MCs; this is unfortunately not the case, with the exception of Big Daddy Kane, Capone, and a couple of talented undergrounders.
Some of the old Marl magic does resurface on the thuggish "What U Hold Down," and the maestro even branches out on the jazz-funk exploration "Hummin'," which features hip-hop forefather Roy Ayers.

 TrouserPress.com :: Marley Marl
Old school rap producer Marley Marl (also, for a while, a New York radio DJ) was an early studio powerhouse, making solidly entertaining records with Heavy D., Biz Markie, Big Daddy Kane, Roxanne Shanté and others.
As would later become commonplace for mixmasters, he put his own name (but not his voice) on a couple of albums.
The album's diversity is to its credit, but Marl gives too much play to second-string rhymers, leaving the LP's few highlights (such as the Biz twigging Barry Manilow in "We Write the Songs" and Shanté playing cute word games in "Wack Itt") adrift on a sea of verbal boreplay.
