Marley Marl was hip-hop's first super producer. Growing up in the Queensbridge housing projects, he put together the Juice Crew—a crack team of golden era rappers that included Big Daddy Kane, MC Shan, Biz Markie, Kool G Rap, Roxanne Shante, Craig G, and Masta Ace. That's not to mention his work outside of the family with LL Cool J, Eric B & Rakim, Nas, and Noreaga. Salute a true master.
