- The Authority On All Things R&B !
On this week's episode of The R&B Money Podcast, Tank and J Valentine sit down with jack of all trades, Marques Houston. From a young age of just 9 years old, Marques was already dipping his toes into the entertainment industry, in the boy band Immature, later reimagined as IMX, which served as a springboard for many of today's biggest stars and was an inspiration to an entire generation of R&B.
Marques will take us on a journey spanning over 30 years in the entertainment industry, having learned every aspect of the business, from singing and acting to even ironing clothes for his co-creation, B2K. He will serve us with stories of his solo success, escaping the teenage typecast, and even his close call with the law for the Naked box. Listen and Enjoy, Marques Houston on The R&B Money Podcast

I want them to interview Jason Weaver. I would love to hear the story behind his music journey
Yes ,definitely need that
Love Jason Weaver. Definitely would love to see that happen
Did you see him on The 85 South Show?
You are so right ! I would love to hear his story too….
I would love for him to be on here
If Joe don't get on this show imma lose my mind. That man is the epitome of R&B. Every lyric... Every run.. Every riff. Every damn album
You know it 🔥 that mans vocals are severely underrated and have been for a very long time. Nothin but classics! Loved his chemistry with Tim & Bob especially. Absolute FIRE! An shawn stockman needs to be on here too, along with Nate & Wanya.
AGREED
Agree 2..truly a legend
I agree!
Don't yawl forget be CLEAN AS HELL when he step on dat stage!
Lord everybody has Brandy in their story get her on here now! 😂😂😂😂 She needs a part 1,2, and 3 sheesh
I am probably her biggest fan I need her on this podcast asapually!!!!!!!!
Who else so I can go listen ?
ASAP
Brandy was a problem in the 90s lol
@@awade2436she was mentioned in a few of them.. off the top I can remember Jojo, coco jones, Eric Dawkins
Tank we need Avant on the show. You & Avant have always been the underdogs in R & B music. Avant fans want to hear from him and what better way then on your podcast. Come on Tank bring on Avant...pretty please 😁
That's what I've been saying, Avant needs more recognition, that man is talented as hell
Let’s not forget Jaheim
YES! I’ve been thinking this!!!! 👏👏👏
Yessss
That's what I said. I want Avant on the show 😊
Tank is literally apart of everything I listened to in my Childhood,
Without even knowing he produced it,
without knowing he wrote it,
without knowing his backing vocals is on my favorite songs ,
and then Gravitating to him again, as an adult now.
It makes so much sense. Tank is The BLUEPRINT.
It makes sense! I feel this comment 💯💯💯 because I keep discovering more and more, and everything he’s touched is gold.
I remember learning he was doing the baclground on Aaliyah's come over and Omarion O
Wait R Kelly tho Goat 🐐 tho
Tank brandy and ray J seems like
I am 36, I grew up on Immature, IMX, Marques Houston and B2K! I loved this interview! Fun Fact, I also met Tank in Phoenix AZ when I was 15. It was at the Celebrity Pre show party at a hotel in Scottsdale, RIGHT after B2K broke up. The B2K members were all there ( minus O) and Tank seen my little 15 year old self holding an Apple Martini ( just to look cool because I Didn't drink) and he took it from me and handed me his Fiji Water bottle lol. Then he introduced me to the b2k members that night. Ill never forget it. Amazing time in my life. I still have pics with all of them and Tank! Love the pod
How the hell you get an apple martini at 15😂
S/o Tank for that. What a g.
Damn old lady
holding an apple martini to “look cool” at the age of 15 is absolutely insane 💀 like did you at least try to lie about your age? or were you telling ppl you were 15, holding an apple martini? 😭😭😭😭
@mrstatic156 you look 64 in that pfp, shutup cornball
To hear TANK say that MH doesn’t miss in the studio…..we have to respect that 💪🏾
I love how they stick to the music only, no gossip just music!
Does anyone else listen to all the songs that Tank and J.Valentine have vocals on and try to pin point their voices…it’s like a game for me😂🥰
I thought I was the only one that did this 🤣🤣
It’s literally a game for me now! 😂😂
Me for tank‼️
You have to listen to Vedo song called pull out, when I tell you TANK send chills thru your spine with that background vocals!!!
@@babysoll12191 oh my I just listened! You weren’t lying! 🔥🔥
One thing I love about @R&B Money Podcast is they are gonna stick to the artists career and not the mess! Bringing light to what these artists have done in the industry and the work they put in to be where they are is the point! Thank y’all for that!
Yes!!! Love and respect that.
Of course they are going to do that. It's good for business & the they have an understanding before they come on the show that they show artist in a positive light & not messy. Duh!!
@@ricosanchez202 your duh was really not necessary
I love how they give the artists their flowers and let them talk and never over shine them.
Yes!
What I appreciate most about this podcast is that you keep it r&b. Even with guest that may have controversy tied to their name, it allows us to hear their story and humanize them, I love that.
Exactly I love that strictly rnb and they journey❤
Humanizing pedophiles. Girl goodnight. You supposed women are sad in these comments. The children know you are too. Look at the news.
The Bended Knee harmony...💞
MH unexpectedly and personally presenting Tank with the album plaque was a moment. And a moment recognized and appreciated by his peer. 👏🏾
That was a really good moment! Brothers showing respect, appreciation and love for one another!!
I watched the harmony at least 20x…
That was truly beautiful, like Marques said its sad that this business now hardly want to give credit to the greats.
With all of the negative press out about Marques Houston, I did not know what to expect from this interview.. but this was So Enjoyable! Thanks to Tank and J for allowing fans to get a glimpse inside of the person behind the artist. Thank you for highlighting his humanity! Marques Houston seems like a good dude 💯
Yes, I was always thought he was good guy
Absolutely! You captured my thoughts in your post! This was a great interview and strictly about the music, the art!!! His personal life is his.
So you enjoyed a pedophile speaking ?
He is my friend!!! He is amazing.. Don't believe the negative talk.
@@honeybeeful1 who gives a fuck. What happened to Raz b and Quindon tarver. Tf you talking about ??
Can I just say “Ain’t never been a man want anything as much as I want you!” Is still the COLDEST line I have EVER heard in a song! Thank you Tank❤
Prince-level lyrics.
The intro to the Top 5 gets crazier and sillier each guest 😅😅😅 love it
Y’all don’t even know how much I love Marques “Batman” Houston. This man and Romeo and LDB were plastered all over my walls, my folders at school! I am a fan FAN! This took me back to childhood. I’m so glad y’all did this one! Tell me that Brandy is up NEXT!!!! ❤️
You are not alone ✊🏽
Yes and yes
I know I still have some of the magazines, some of the magazines I had to cut them up to get rid of space so I made a binder with all of Immature pin up posters from magazines. I still have the binder.
@@lateshiachilds3640 nice !
Same! I lived & breathed EVERYTHING Batman/Immature!
We need Lloyd, Brandy, Ginuwine, Joe & Dru Hill on the Podcast Tank & J
Lloyd…? Nah😂
@@Mr.Wayne.1 Who asked you?
Just Sisqo or the Original Dru Hill ion know these new negroes....
@@MzDrizzy30 right, like what’s wrong wit Lloyd ? 😂
@@tac497 Exactly!! He threw me off with that bs lbs.
There's nothing wrong with Lloyd. He's a legend as well.
Please get Ray J on the podcast because that man is comedy. I feel like we would laugh the whole time. 😂
Omg 🤣
Can he sing though
You right!!!?? I'd be ready to laugh🤣🤣
No no no no was the debut single, actually
Yessss get Ray J
I don't see MH in a lot of podcast or interviews so it was awesome he got r&b recognition, he's still making great R&B albums. I love his music!
Never knew Tank wrote Naked! That dude is dope!🔥🔥🔥
This podcast has made me appreciate r&b and the real side of the industry.
I’ve been saying for years, how instrumental Immature, MH is to the entertainment industry. It’s so good to see him finally get his just due!
We need Joe, Brandy, Kandi and Monica on the podcast
We need his homie Ginuwine
I agree
Missy Elliott, tweet, Kelly Rowland, sisqo, Bobby brown, Mary j, faith Evan, etc the real vets
NEYO USHER T PAIN
Not Kandi though 😂
The Naked album came out when I was newly grown and you couldn't tell me he wasn't singing to my 'sexy' self 😂❤
Lol facts
"Y'all was lying at 12??" 🤣🤣🤣 But yes Immature has some classics songs. Those songs from then still hit hard today. I Don't Mind, Pay You Black, 24/7 , Sweetest Love still hit so hard 🔥🔥🔥🔥
😂😂😂Tank is soooo funny. MH asked if I believe I can fly is RnB and Tank say “dame right! Don't give that to nobody else😂😂😂” a TRUE RnB warrior. This we a really good interview the engagement was good and laid back.
😂😂😂😂😂
he is hilarious 😂😂
You know who needs to be brought on this podcast? Amerie, Amerie that girl.
Yessss. I agree with that. I love her sound.
Can I just say that every time j valentine sings I get goosebumps!!!
Marques is such a stand up guy. A true legend and what a nice gesture to bring Tank that plaque. Really enjoyed this interview.
J and Tank, keep it up. Best podcast in the world.
I completely forgot he was called Batman at one point 😩. Lol. Bringing it back. Good episode fellas 🙏🏽
This was another great episode!!! Marques has stories for days!!! I'm a fan of singers who have vocals outside of the studio, so I'm glad y'all let him cut up a little bit!!!
Growing up, I loved Immature, and to see how connected they were to so many of the groups after them...there's layers to this R&B thing!
I can’t get over that nobody has mentioned MH being 41. He still looks just as young as Tank said. I love it
'Playtime is Over' is a freaking classic album 🔥, 'I don't mind,' 'Sweetest love', and 'Just a Little Bit', Damn I miss the 90s R&B✨
Sweetest love !!! When that beat dropped!!! That was classic album!!! .. first cassette I ever brought
I was 2 when it came out but my sisters was 10. It was their favorite album. It was always my favorite album too
Period!!!
Yea album fire
Yes!!!!!!! You listed my favs. I still play these jams to this day!!
This is one of those “sneak up on you” interviews. You’re not sure what to expect but I loved it. Just a classy interview thanks to Tank & J. These two have me laughing every single time. Would love to see Brandy, Jodeci, Keith Sweat, Ronald Isley, Avant, Tevin Campbell…
Chris Brown and D'Angelo would be my dream interview! Make it happen guys please! This was a great interview!
✊🏽
Now you done said a WHOLE WORD!!! #sustained
This right here! YES!!!
Great interview !!! Please tell J Valentine to give us his skincare regimen ASAP ! It’s giving moisture and shea butter
Growing up Marques Houston was everything!!!❤ I was a big Immature fan!!
X a
me too
The shades and baggy clothes talmbout they will NEVER TELL A LIE AGAIN 😩😩😩😭😭😭
🔥🔥🔥♥️♥️♥️
Listen!! I wrote immature (mainly Batman) 😂 a letter in 1995..I got their address out of a Right on Magazine that had a poster of him in the middle 😩
J valentine and tank are some down to earth dudes. I love how you all gracefully so much love to others ❤
Need Sisqo on the podcast. He was a Game changer
I cosign this!!
Fan
YES PLEASE
Hell yeah
Yessss!!!
Immature/IMX is legendary.. they had HITZ!
Lol they're not legendary stop. Not one number one song or album.
@@Tino44954 cultural songs >>>> billboard songs
Facts
That's crazy how many hits Tank and J wrote, and background vocals and solo and regular artist career they helped start. When Tank was on the 85 South Show I did understand what he meant.
Brandy comes up on ALL things RnB Part 1 and 2...I think she might need an old and new testament 😅❤
They should find a way to incorporate more singing on this podcast. I got excited when they started harmonizing "On Bended Knee"
Me tooooo! Every time they sing I be like Cmoooon
@@speaksakia I know! The keyboard is RIGHT THERE🤣I'd watch just to hear the "Top 5" song. lol
I'd love to see Maxwell, Brandy, & Jazmine Sullivan. This podcast is sooo good.
I just came here to say I was at the Louisville concert last night and Tank/J. Valentine did an AMAZING job! Whew!! I was already a fan and subscribed to the podcast but honey….that definitely just changed the game a little for me. Ultimate fan for life!!! 🥰🥰🥰
I would Luv to see India Arie, Chante Moore and Tevin Campbell on the R&B Money Podcast.
That was so entertaining. MH is mad talented across the board. I agree now it's time for Brandy. She has been connected vocally or as a good friend to a couple of artists that have been on the podcast. I would love to hear her story.
Marques first solo album is 🔥 to me TO THIS DAY!!!
Yessss I still listen to
Facts
This was so fun to watch. Tank & J are great hosts!
Please get Ray J on this show. He needs a two part episode at least!😅
Crazy thing is his 1st solo album is a CLASSIC in my eyes; I play that album to this day frfr!!!!
Same here❤
One of my favorite episodes !!! MAXWELL, DONELL JONES & JOE
I’ll cry if they get Maxwell!!!! Donell Jones and Joe are R&B royalty as well!!
Throughly enjoyed this interview. No one even touching MH first three albums, straight plays, no skips!!!
Loved this interview!! MH is definitely a huge part of our childhoods! We need Lloyd, Tamia😍 Ciara, brandy! So many more we would love to see!!
Why do yah love pedophiles ?
so no problem with pedophilia at all?
Second person to say Lloyd in the comments and I'm here for it.😂 His music is so good.
What a great conversation! Loved how Marques joined in the the closing segments’ songs and gifted Tank. I didn’t know just how vast MH’s talent is
Great Interview! I love seeing the people in grew up watching tell their stories, Marques Houston is a legend. I also appreciate that y'all stick to the career, unless they bring up personal lives yall stay out if it and THAT IS HOW AN INTERVIEW SHOULD BE CONDUCTED... Now I'm going be singing "NAKED" all weekend lol that was my jam and I don't know how I couldn't hear Uncle Tanks voice all over it until now... Also, I love when y'all sing in between, that's what I like to hear the stories accompanied by the VOCALS lol
We had LSG and TGT. Maybe we can get Omarion, Mario and Marques as a group, for their generation of fans. Every guest has been so excited about the music. It’s all about the music
I can see it...I'm feeling it.
Sitcoms, music, style, movies, dancing. For over 2 decades…that’s legendary.
Would love to see Sisqo, K-Ci & Jo-Jo, John Legend, Jill Scott, The Dream, Guy, Raheem Devaugn, Boys 2 Men, & New Edition as well. Just a few of my favs...❤🔥
I’d love to see Jagged Edge, Kelis, or Sevyn Streeter on the show !!❤️😍❤️
Yess
I’d love to see sevyn 😍
Jagged edge would be hard too
Yessss JE
Tank be into with the B-Boxing sound as SOON as someone start Singing. I Love it. It’s like him & JV got pump this thing where they make the Singers want to sing… Keep this R&B Podcast GOING…. DON’T STOP. It is SO much History come on this Podcast to give Is History❤
Tank has always been an amazing yet humble artist. I see now a lot of these young men owe him a huge thank you.
The fact they didn’t yell out “Elgin Barrett Eugene Smith the THIRD!” 🤣🤣🤣
It’s literally Tank and these songs for me 🤣🤣 my favorite Immature songs growing up was Constantly, Never Lie, Lovers Groove, Extra Extra….I was a fan of course….this was so good!
Constantly, Never Lie and Please Don’t Go is my jams
Tank is hilaaaaarious on that keyboard
It's my 34 year old ass in tears watching this because I was In Love with Batman ! Literally shaped my taste in men looks Lol😂❤ he had to look similar ....thank you for timeless music
Constantly still on REPEAT ❤
First of all “walk away” by MH made me want to be in love at 9!! Second of all, he looks like he’s younger than I am! And third of all, this podcast makes it so clear to set your kids up around the right people to get them in the right rooms! So many people in the industry are connected!
Marques stay humble sir! That's how you get to to the top!! Great lesson taught here today Tank snd J! Love you brothers for being a light in this space! Giving a voice to those we have loved in there careers! Nice!!!!!
MH always has been one of my favorite singers right along with O and the rest of the group members. Wish it wasn’t so much bad energy and crazy accusations surrounding them because they made some impactful music on my generation.
This was a very interesting interview! Surprisingly for me. I didn’t realize how much work MH had put in.
I have to add when Marques was talking about You Got Served and the names of the characters and who the movie was actually meant for made me tear up. I remember how Honey was also supposed to be for Aaliyah. I know Ginuwine real name is Elgin I didn't pay that close attention. I always wanted to see Aaliyah and Ginuwine do a dance movie.
I didn't know honey was meant for Aaliyah😢
That would’ve been so epic to see Aaliyah and Ginufine in a dance movie
@Alwayzblessed36 yeah I learned that back in 2003.
A HUGE shout out to J, Tank and the production team of R&B Money for yet another stellar installment of the hottest podcast on the PLANET!!
Especially for keeping things on track and remaining focused on what is truly important.
Whether it is MH or any of the preceeding artists that have graced your set, let us be reminded that ALL ARTISTS are human and have received press (verifiable or not) that can be categorized as less than positive.
Thank you for reminding us that profound and insightful convo regarding artistic endeavor and development is the reason we gather to observe and absorb the content that is provided.....rather than making room for the negative...of which there is already too much of....
A Priceless Education!! Beautiful!
THANK YOU!!
29:30 “Yeah yeah …you niggas wanna sell drugs” 😂😂😂 I be waiting for that “yeah yeah” from J every episode
Valentines skin! 😭My goodness. Flawless! 😍
This was the story I never knew I needed! Thank u Batman,Tank , Valentine ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wooowww you hit the Batman😩😩🔥🔥Immature for life. My first J5 poster😢😢
I love how these amazing, talented men in the music industry can show genuine love and respect each other as people and artists. I love the way they express their admiration for each other's art and inspiration they may have received from each other ❤❤❤
JUST AS I EXPECTED ‼️ MARQUES HOUSTON IS PHENOMENAL‼️. HE LOOKS GOOD‼️ SOUNDS GOOD‼️And IS DOWN TO EARTH GOOD‼️ I loved him giving Tank his flowers! Yes! Yes! tear it up at Barclays! I will be watching NO WAY OUT and SUPPORTING ALL THE MOVIES MH DOES! I WISH HIM MUCH CONTINUED HUMBLE SUCCESS‼️✝️🙏🏿👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾💥💥💥💯🥰🥳🥳🥳
"I Will Never Lie Again" definitely takes me back to 1993, being 11 years old in Camp Springs, Maryland. I had a friend who wanted to start a group after watching Immature's video on "The Box". I was like...."but...n!@# we can't sing". lmao
😂😂😂Tank said “i didn’t even know to lie to girls” 😭💀
The one thing Marcus Houston didn't touch on and don't get credit for is "Somebody Help Me" it was such a good black horror movie series. There wasn't much black horror and him and Omarion, and others really did something at that time 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
And still is. Love it. I think it’s on tubi right now
1 and 2 ❤❤
The second one was hilarious. O got buff and beat the killer up 😂
Ok, I keep skipping over it on Tubi, but now I'll go watch it lol.
I almost forgot about that series😂
MH is definitely a legendary dude he deserves all the respect and glory blessings to him for sure !💯….great interview too!
I’m at work watching this and when J. Valentine told the story about him taking the girls to the scream tour was so hilarious. I’m at my desk drinking my water and as he telling the story I almost spit my water out because of me laughing so hard so I had to turn my head so my coworker next to me wouldn’t see me🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I so loved watching this interview with all of you. Truly amazing and funny.
This man is a legend, and so deep in the game. Great Episode and im glad MH was able to speak whatever he wanted to speak!
I have mad respect for M. Houston. 👍
❤ Thanks for continuing to deliver greatness @R&B Money Podcast. MH has been around for three decades and that’s huge in this business! Big part of our history. Loved seeing him tell hiStory today. See y’all next week fam 💸💸💸🥰
Another great interview for the books! MH had that falsetto ready. On a side note I really hope Chris Brown is hearing about all the positive energy and respect his peers have for him. In a sea of negativity sometimes the positive gets lost.
I loveeee the naked album, still bump heavy all these years later 🔥🔥🔥
Omg all I can say is this was needed !! More singing on the show. Please 💋💋💋🙌🏾🙌🏾😮💨😮💨 All three raw TALENT !
I just love the keyboard 😂😂😂. The way I LOL every time is sickening 😂😂😂.
Tank is really a heavy hitter my boy sang background vocals and wrote half my playlist ❤😂
This was absolutely nothing but amazing! I got my entire life through this episode. I am 40 so I grew up with MH. Till this day, Naked is still my song. B2M is still my favorite group and I love me some Wanya! One man and Slowdown will forever be in my playlist and this pod cast is and will be one of the best thing ever created all things RNB!
I'd love to see Teddy Riley on here. Not only did he produce a lot of great artists like MJ, Janet, Whitney, ect but he also did some great projects as well - Guy, BlackSTREET.
Add Keith Sweat, Doug E. Fresh/Slick Rick, Kool Moe Dee, Hi Five, Heavy D and some others I can’t think of at the moment. Teddy Riley definitely has a Resume in the Production game
Love me some Teddy.
Love how MH gave Tank his flowers! Naked is one of my favorite sensual songs.
Batman looking TOASTED in the thumbnail 😂
Ok, I was not the only one who noticed something off about his look.
They look beyond fried here, even got J Val looking like the lightskin J Prince
What's crazy to me is to hear him refer to their very first album as a flop. I was in Belgium on an army base at the time when that came out (as well as Bebe's Kids). It was the only album they had at the PX (iykyk) that had kids my age that looked like me and I was so excited. If it wasn't for that first album, I would have never became a huge Immature fan. I love this podcast for those reasons. This pieced together so many portions of my musical childhood.
My respect level for this man is renewed… wish him eternal happiness and success
Tank: "I believe that Immature was Midgets"
J V: little people
Tank: "little people"
JV: "get yo terms right"
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That was a very good interview. You guys have class. This has been one of the best ones. MH is singing for real. Can't wait for the Ginuwine interview!!!
I’m a DC native, and I really do appreciate the radio stations here and Chris Stokes for bringing immature to DC often. I enjoyed every bit of their concerts. I almost wrote him to thank him! Lol
Loved this episode!!! Idk whose idea it was to have the segments in the podcast but it flows perfectly.
That Naked album was on heavy rotation in my CD player. Great album ❤
Perfect album from start to finish
J Valentine is hilarious 😂..Great dynamic! Great Podcast!
