  • Marvin Young better known by his stage name Young MC is a British born American rapper. He is best known for his 1989 hit "Bust a Move". In addition to producing the hit "Bust a Move", Young MC was also an accomplished songwriter, having co-written the hits "Wild Thing" and "Funky Cold Medina" for Tone Loc. Even though his follow-up to "Bust a Move", "Principal's Office", did not become a huge hit, it was still nominated for Best Rap Video at the 1990 MTV Video Music Awards. In the UK, the single 'Know How' (not released in the US) became a huge club hit on the rave scene, despite not charting. Due to creative differences, Young left Delicious Vinyl and signed with Capitol Records, which released Young's follow-up album, Brainstorm. The first single from the album, "That’s the Way Love Goes", received some play on MTV, but very little radio airplay.
  • Young MC es un rapero que alcanzó la fama en 1989 con el single "Bust a Move", ganador de un Grammy como la mejor canción de rap del año. Su primer álbum, Stone Cold Rhymin, fue visto como un brillante disco de pop-rap, siendo re-editado por Rhino Records. Tras abandonar Delicious Vinyl Records, su carrera cayó en picado y nunca la recuperó. Tras graduarse en Hunter College High School, en New York, se mudó a la costa oeste para ir a la Universidad de Southern California, donde se licenció en economía. También co-produjo los éxitos "Wild Thing" y "Funky Cold Medina" para Tone Loc y apareció en anuncios del restaurante de comida rápida Taco Bell. En 2005, apareció en Celebrity Fit Club 3 de VH1.
  • Debuttò nel 1989 con il grande successo "Bust a Move", che vinse il primo Grammy Award di sempre come Best Rap Recording. Il suo album d'esordio, Stone Cold Rhymin', è visto da molti come un ottimo disco pop rap.
