Thank you so much Marquis! That was more honesty and courage than I've ever heard in a music business interview. Your music is tops, and your testimony is too.
Growing up in Miami as a teen and going to their shows, whenever I crossed paths with Brother Marquis we would glance and exchange smiles. He was different from the other 2. I was a hot mama but somehow he knew I was too young so he would just smile back. I was definitely crushing on him back then. He is a stand up guy ❤️💪
It's funny how we could get into their shows as teenagers (they came to Nashville when I was 13 years old in 1987). They were so underground our parents didn't get wind of 2 Live Crew till the free speech debates came out. If my folks knew about them it would have been a different story. Hip Hop was real organic back then!
Brother Marquis! Legend of the game! I'm still pumping Two Live Crew in my car from time to time. Their music gives off warm weather, freaky chicks, and party vibes!
I was a founder and member of a local DJ crew in in my city in Florida and they came and performed in the city. After the show me and one of my group members and road dog followed brother Marquis to the ATM and ask for his autograph he signed a five dollar bill for my road dog. I mean we trailed this man after his show to the ATM. We could have been trying to rob him or something. But he didn't blow us off or seam fazed at all. In the we hours of that morning. It had to be around 2 or 3 am. He just signed the auto- graph. Held a brief conversation with us and we parted ways. I always and still am a fan of the 2Live Crew. If I held the office of book em and they will come. You know they would head line that ticket. May you have good fortune where ever you step brother. You are a stand up man. Me and my crew would roll with you any time. But I'm going to close this comment session with this to Brother Marquis. (WHAT REWARD CAN THERE BE FOR GOOD? OTHER THAN GOOD. ✌🏿B UPON U. And with that being said, I'm 5000 G
Having interviewed many people on mic I want to give you props for 1) being a class act and 2) letting the man tell his story. Most interviewers would have steered it and you let him do it in his time and it is a far better conversation for it. I’m impressed.
This brother is clearly too nice for the industry. He wasn't built for it. How do you get fkd tht many times and still not learn? Hopefuly he gets what he's owed
Some people just have more respect and morals then usual and in this industry that will get you screwed up but he's not perfect but he was very humble from what I could here on this interview
Brother Marquis was my fav rapper from 2Live Crew my fav song is Hoochie Mama he was the voice meant to be the lead cant believe they are all close to 60s and Luke is in his 60s thats crazy but a lot of us that even grew up during the Miami bass era are late 40s/50s lol we were just teenagers time flies
Germany checking in....Childhood Hero and Legend up in this Mutha . Soundtrack of my youth ,Bro Marquis I wish you nothing but the best, God bless U and the 2Live Crew. RIP Fresh Kid Ice
Mind blowing interview. Sad man. Sad. I used to want to be these guys when I was a kid. Love his frankness because knowing the stuff behind the curtains help all us musicians make better business decisions. Shout out to BMQ for keeping it 💯
A true legend...I remember trying to push their music back in the day as a dj uptown in philly...the first hip hop group to make a live concert album! (No..it wasn't krs one.)
I was in my mid teens when they came out....and me and my friends would listen to their "tape" over and over again. When we had two tens in the trunk....and not a care in the world. Brings back some awesome memories.
If they only knew how big was The 2 Live Crew in Mexico City back then. "The Fuck Shop" "If You Believe In Having Sex" and all Mr. Mixx's megamixest were in everybody's car sound systems. Salute to the homie Brother Marquis!
I got mad love for the 2 Live Crew. It makes me proud to be from Florida and we got a rap group that changed the rap industry forever. But they never get talked about like that. Watching this interview, we need a 2 Live Crew biopic, cause they are a huge part of the music industry. Without them, nobody in today’s game would rap about getting p*ssy or f*cking a female in their records.
100 % true my friend; as a fellow SoFlorian , so happy I grew up where I did and experience so much that I have . So proud of my Miami memories and history!!!!!
Growing up in Florida in the 80's . I use to go to Pittsburgh Pa in the summer . One year i took that music to Pittsburgh and they had never heard any music like that before . Shoutout to DJ Styles from Braddock PA for playing the Miami sound of music that i grew up with Those was some great summers in Penn.
I would like to set the record straight. As the one who represents Brother Marquis, Uncle Luke and Chris Wong Won in their termination case, I would like it to be known Chris Wong Won did not die broke. He died without having his rights to the 2 Live Crew albums, having others assume that he did. Before his passing Chinaman broke away from Lil Joe and ventured on to mentor upcoming artists under his label Chinaman records. He was negotiating million dollar deals right before his death and getting his business right. In fact he was getting his business so right it was because of HIM that I was able to locate the contracts for the 2 Live Crew members that are 35 years old. If he didn't save these contracts we would not be at the end of our termination case about to take back his music. He passed not having all he should have but far from broke. He was the wealthiest of them all in regards to the love respect he has from the music community. R.I.P Chinaman Know am fighting for you all.
I saw a video of you and bmq talking shop about getting the music back. You obviously know bmq so why is he saying chinaman died broke if he didnt? Since youre commenting, clarify some more because this whole ordeal is a big clusterfk.
@@jimmyjump8335 that's how he perceived it. He wasn't fully aware of Chinaman's business nor was it my right to tell him. If he would of asked he might of been told. If anyone took a small amount of time they would of found out what Chinaman was doing in his last days. People are so quick to take what others say without researching. That's why it's important people don't speak on others unless they have The hard facts
@@BENWORKIN89 honestly there is so much. All of it doesn't need to be understood or told. Consequences of all the mistakes falls on the members. The fans should want to celebrate them for all the brought to their lives and the historic acheivements they accomplished together. They should support their mission on taking back ownership of the music. All the rest should be left to them to heal from since they were the ones who suffered.
I remember this brother. It was fun to watch them. It look like they where simply having fun. I never took anything negative from their music. I always felt it was just music and nothing else. You have to have a mind of your own.
2 days ago I asked Vlad to please release this interview and u came through! Thank u so much for that broski! Im a 41yr old white man from Florida and Im one of the biggest fans of Luke and The 2 Live Crew! The end segment Brother M. went HAM on Luke. He needed to get that out. Soooo, now get Mr. Mixx and get ahold of JT Money to bring this full circle. I have faith in u Vlad! 🍺😉👍
If you didn't notice Vlad was taken back just as much as most of you were. He tried to remind Marquis of the historic acheivements they obtained as a group and what they meant to their fans. Vlad was crushed as you all were. Remember he had a childhood full of memories of 2 Live Crew. I can tell he didn't want to hear all he heard
The 90s was the best decade for music but it’s just unfortunate that a lot of talented artists (especially groups) were not properly compensated for their work. Don’t forget the R&B group H Town (Knockin The Boots) was signed to Luke as well. They had a dope catalog, but probably could of been MUCH bigger had they not signed to him.
Bro the t shirts in the hood with h town back in the day knocking the boots in the back, or hammer time bro 90s we’re a great time to grow up good and bad, The last generation to have to figure it out yourself and get your ass whooped and live and learn shit go outside lol
Throw that D local hit?! Bruh that was one of the dopest beats of all time! 808s everything- if you got some 10s 12s in your ride- put that in there and crank it up… tell me I’m lying!!!
Rest in peace Brother Marquis.. He was always my favorite 😢 Well, he definitely poured out his feelings in this interview. I believe he did so, so there will be no misunderstanding how he felt.
brother Marquis is real - he use to not only rock the mic at the Park - Boardwell Park in Riverside the brotha was Sharp - a real role model , kool Geed Up, drinkin on a 40ty, We looked up to Brother Marquis he was a Star before he even blew Up
Uncle Luke already responded to this... Sad... I was such a fan until the truth came out. BMQ seems like a real gentleman. Thanks for giving this interview. Him and Mr Mixx should do a show online.
I always felt that Luke didn't belong for some reason and it seemed like he would do what he actually did to his group members. I knew it and I felt it in my heart
@@martymart42 he was a great hype man... His voice is as near iconic as flavor flavs... but yeah he was always suspect. Being in Fl in the early 90s and getting the bug for that miami sound, the deep bass and 808s i absolutly fell in love with the Crew... So sad to hear how BMQ got screwed over so badly
Yeh, BMQ did an interview with Doggie Diamonds last year. I guess it wasn’t a big enough platform for Luke to respond, but BMQ called him out on there big time too.
I Seen 2 Live Crew like Luke was the Eazy E Brother Marquis was the Ice Cube MINUS the Business Sense China Man was the Mc Ren and Mr Mixx was the Dr Dre.
Yes!!! I love my old school legends I grew up listening to on VladTV now. Just watched the Too $hort segment, it was dope! Absolutely have to get Rodney O and Joe Cooley on this!!!!
Love Brother Marquis! I saw the 2Live Crew live in Detroit, MI back in about 1990 and they were amazing! Luike, Fresh Kid Ice, Brother Marquis and Mr. Mixx were the absolute best ever! Sooooooo funny I still can't stop laughing! Brother Marquis and Fresh Kid Ice worked together as a team back and forth and it made it really unique. Not only did they have great lyrics but their music and beat were phenomenal. Dick Almighty is my favorite - OMG LOL!. All the best to Brother Marquis!
Luke was grimey but trick daddy called him out on his first album then H-Town came out about him and that female group he had called him out but I never knew this about 2 live crew but I should have known
he was on in RIVERSIDE CA - AT THE PARK ROCKIN THE MIC, WIT RODNEY-O they influenced me i use to see them everyday then they BLOW UP AND LEFT RIVERSIDE and blow up on Mtv
Respect Brother Marquis! He is truely poorin his heart out. You can tell that thats his purpose of this whole interview. Word 100%! The truth must be told! I can understand that. He has no respect for Luke ..what so ever, and he's right. It shines a whole other light on the 2 live crew as a band. Its a dirty story but it is what it is. Peace Brother Marquis for telling us fans the truth!
I believe that's around the time the parental guidance sticker came out. That particular 2 Live Crew album definitely had it on it. I was able to purchase it anyway too.
The women’s body’s was nothing new in the Black community. Kim Kardashian couldn’t make something popular that comes natural to women of color. Love Brother Marquis. Legend!
I REMEMBER MEETING BRO MARQUIS AND 🙏🏿FRESH KID ICE 🙏🏿WHEN THEY CAME TO GRAMBLING.. HE WAS THE MOST COOLEST DUDE YOU WOULD EVER COME ACROSS.. HAD THE EXTREME PLEASURE OF SHAKING BOTH THEIR HANDS… R I P FRESH KID ICE🙏🏿
the fact that i had so much love and respect for Luke and what he did for the south and now to hear this coming from one of the horses mouth about this whole ordeal is saddening. like we heard in the streets how F'd up Luke was but nobody wanted to believe it. now seeing this interview is disheartening to realize that was what was really going on behind the scenes. much love to BMQ and the rest of the REAL 2live crew.
And the fact that bruh saying Luke was fooling with him and shot an AR 15 at him blanks made me change my point of view of Luke. And Brother Marquis saying that 2 Live Crew was touring with NWA, yet Luke dissed their hometown. Like wtf? Luke seems grimy af bruh. I always had respect for the homies out there in California and I always wanted to see their artists collaborate with Florida artists back then but I guess it never happened because of Luke. 🤦🏾♂️
Dope Interview! Brother Marquis Salute!! Was always my favorite from the group! Crazy how things are, but when you see it on tv you think everything is GREAT, Smh!
As one of those white guys that bought every album you made, 2 Live crew defined the 80s and early 90s for me. I dont think BMQ understands just how big of an impact they had on everyone from our generation.
R.I. P MY BROTHER!
Excellent, this has got to be one of the best interviews I've seen on VladTV!
Salute to Brother Marquis he’s a true legend & survivor. Wish him the best.
he is
W I will let Yuit 2 live Crew
All that happened you still stayed loyal and helped out your friend. God Bless you Brother Marquis.
Brother Marquis tells the classic record industry story!
Yes true they got robbed but they became famous and legends
You can tell he's been holding all this in for a long time
Thank you so much Marquis! That was more honesty and courage than I've ever heard in a music business interview. Your music is tops, and your testimony is too.
This was the realist interview ever.... Brother Marquis.. Marquis your brother 👍

It is cool to hear a woman say that she was hot as a youngster and a brother did not take advantage.
Hot Mama that honesty to the fullest. I don't know if Luke would've had the morals to just Smile 😁
What do you look like
Thanks for this interview, VLAD. Marquis is a legend in his own right!

I like these older ground breaking hip hop heads should be given royalties for the work they put in by every artist that comes after.

The way he tells the story sounds similar to NWA's if you imagine Luke = Eazy, Mr. Mixx = Dre, Brother Marquis = Cube, China Man = Ren.
Put some respect on Fresh Kid Ice’s name

When I first heard them in high school around 1990 that changed my world lol..... we ALL loved them beats.... guys and girls equally!

You can tell that thats his purpose of this whole interview. Word 100%!
The truth must be told!
I can understand that.
He has no respect for Luke ..what so ever, and he's right.
It shines a whole other light on the 2 live crew as a band.
Its a dirty story but it is what it is.
Peace Brother Marquis for telling us fans the truth!
I am 46 now. I bought that Band in the USA album at 11 years old.
Me too!
I believe that's around the time the parental guidance sticker came out. That particular 2 Live Crew album definitely had it on it. I was able to purchase it anyway too.
Love 2live crew. Grew up on these guys. Remember all of those x rated videos on THE BOX
I play Miami bass music in my car to this very day. Love the 2 Live Crew. I hop VLADTV do one on JAM PONY EXPRESS, and Kizzy Rock.
Fosho....
you still be booty shaking!!!!!

Moral of the story is, there was a whole lot of fuckery going on 🤦🏾♀️
HEY,VLAD. YOU FORGOT SHY-D'S FIRST ALBUM "GOTTA BE TOUGH". The song "Shake It" came out around '87-'88. on his second album.

I’m from the Bottom, and when I was growin up this was my man right here…RIP 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾 Brother Marquis , Marquis ya Brother.
We need Mr Mix story of 2 live crew !
Had to see this b4 the Hulu Freaknik documentary come out… this was them aunties soundtrack 😂😂👀🍿
that is a good interview ,, bring part 2
And the fact that bruh saying Luke was fooling with him and shot an AR 15 at him blanks made me change my point of view of Luke. And Brother Marquis saying that 2 Live Crew was touring with NWA, yet Luke dissed their hometown. Like wtf? Luke seems grimy af bruh. I always had respect for the homies out there in California and I always wanted to see their artists collaborate with Florida artists back then but I guess it never happened because of Luke. 🤦🏾♂️
Luke a good Man U don’t know facts
And u do@@mikedee9759
True legend. RIP Brother Marquis
Who here in 2024 listen to this interview RIP
“You can call me Brother Marquis, Marquis your brother/The T-E-S-T I pass with flying colors”
2 Live is what we are! WORD!!!
That song is still one of my favorite of all time!
@@rayfromdabay3735 me too bro! It’s the opening track to their first album so they started out with a banger!
“The New York born who’s sharp as a thorn/ I came here tonight just to get it on”
@@savagelychill2858 “So listen up close and listen up well
Cause the Brother Marquis has a story to tell”
Great Interview! 💯
Dope Interview! Brother Marquis Salute!! Was always my favorite from the group! Crazy how things are, but when you see it on tv you think everything is GREAT, Smh!
I just saw @ TMZ .. marquis died today ...R.I.P 😔
I'm glad to have met them when I was living in Florida when the first album came.
As one of those white guys that bought every album you made, 2 Live crew defined the 80s and early 90s for me. I dont think BMQ understands just how big of an impact they had on everyone from our generation.
