This man was the closest thing to a white LL cool J when he was marky mark.He diversified music as we know it today.I mean yea Beastie Boys Vanilla Ice and Serch will always get the credit for influencing eminem but Marky Mark def played a huge role in Eminems mainstream success in hip hop.A true pioneer.Without mark being the first white rapper to break into acting and show biz eminem would never have been able to make 8 mile and thats a fact.I think even Eminem knows that.
Man he is the real deal. Talented, humble, guy-next-door. And damn wouldn't i love to see him do Good Vibrations with his shirt off just one more time :)
Holy crap best observation ive made, mark still uses the same hand gestures he did back when he was 'marky mark' look up his interview with donnie on Jay Leno
I met Mark back then as part of the funky bunch and had him sign the book with him on the cover. I threw it out like a dope. What I would not give just to see him come out and be with his brother Donnie acting or singing!
it's not true there are several rappers that came back a s a reunion from hiphop rap so its not a far stretch sugar hill and the gang still do concerts and fugees came back with a one off reunion performance, mc hammer did it. it's not like people are asking him to come out with an album, but i guess mark just is too serious and GROWN to let his hair down and have fun.
Mark did nice hip hop - I like it anyway - and he's a gifted actor. I really can understand why he doesn't wanna go back. Why should he? It's done and now new things are on the horizon. ;-)
Mark is right when he says hip hop is a young mans thing because that is a part of his life he is done with...and he probably doesn't even mean all those things he was saying (rasist remarks) back when he was young and crazy and stupid :))) I like this new Mark much better :)
Thatd be hilarious if Mark Wahlberg went out and did the whole Marky Mark thing itd just would be so funny stick to acting Mark we love you more as Mark Whalberg the actor in the good movies than Marky Mark leave him in the 90s
Hip Hop isn't Rap. And I agree with Mark that hip hop is a young man thing, that's how some singers like Usher, Ne-Yo, Chris Brown, etc...get women. Rappers like Dr.Dre and Snoop are still in the rap game.
How can one say Hip Hop is a young man's game with cats like KRS-One, and Rakim still around and still releasing albums! You know why he's not going back to Marky Mark? Cause he knew he sucked and was doing it just for the money all the way from the beginning. Its the monkey factor, its where you get really buff, make some songs about fucking women, make a shitload of money and call it a day. He made money, became a notable actor, and is now happy. Let the man be.
Well exactly, that's obvious. Mark wahlberg didnt rap about deep lyrical shit like KRS-one/rakim. He was mainstream, party music for the young people. it's that reason why he doesn't feel right going back.
@bob333336 because the category he fell in to was the pop/hip hop infusion of the day and i mean even to this day we still have that kind of hip hop. thing is though that a 30 or 40 year old male coming out and doing it as a "reunion" type thing isn't the same as a rapper like jay-z or some one else in the same category doing it since it's a lot more serious. imagine flow rida doing what he does now in 30 years... I'd imagine he would probably be a little embarrassed to say the least lol
No, this is all wrong. He never started his music career only for the money. You never listened to songs, when you say those had no deeper meaning. A lot of them had and it was great music, one of the best Hip Hop! He made me becoming Hip Hop-Fan with his music. Before I only heard pop music, the New Kids were my favorite group. Because he was so great I also wished to hear his raps again. He could do some soundtrack-music and release singles for a movie, that would be a good deal!
I love BOTH Mark Wahlberg thee actor ANDD Marky Mark the rapper! IIII think he suceeded in both! however marky mark was fucking the sexiestt rapper ALIVE! plus, he wuz free spirited n wuznt as uptight as Mark thee actor. however, DONNIE WILL NEVER CHANGE! Funny, cool, calm, collective, SWEET ANNNND SEXII! buh dnt get me wrong, Theyre both DELICIOUS! buh Mark can loosen up a bit. Id say he still sweet, buh not as sweet as donnie! BUH I LOVE MARK A BIT MORE! WAHLBERGS=SEXIII!!!
he is such a gifted actor.. it is so strange to even remember him from the rapping days.. he wasn't bad..but he is a far better actor i love his work..
IT WOUDNT destroy HIS CREDIBILITY AS AN ACTOR!!, ? ITS 2 DIFFERENT PROFESSIONS!, IF YOUr 25 AND OLDER, U DONT REMEMBER MARK WALHBERG THE ACTOR, U KNOW HIM AS MARKY MARK!, REMEMBER NOW, SAME THING WIT WILL SMITH, B4 HE DID ALL HIS MOVIES, HE WAS A GRAMMY AWARD WINNING RAPPER!!..HE WAS SUCCESFULL IN BOTH!..
I'm glad he's not bringing back the Funky Bunch...Marky Mark was so cheesy...if he brings back Marky Mark, it will destroy his credibility as an actor.
Ladies, I know ya'll liked Marky Mark, but I think it's way more easier to take Mr. Wahlberg seriously now that he's just....well, Mark Wahlberg. He's cooler this way, and so is his bro.
i love his eyes ,when he smile ,i loose the concentration, and i dont listen the interview ,to see him,i wont a men like mark he looks so elegant so fit.
Why are some interviewers such dufussess- Hes asking him childish amusing questions not about his movie and you can tell mark is just wanting to put his middle finger up lol
the guy with the pink shirt is an idiot. mark looks annoyed by him. come on! he has a new movie coming out and the other jackass keeps taking about nkotb and marky mark? that guy should be fired
maybe we will see a new colaboration between him and the funk b's on the the funk bs new album because he made some visits to them in their studio.i saw the photos with them on the funk bs myspace page.so i don't think mark just go there to see his former fellows i think he recorded at least a song with em.and maybe if he will perform with em in some shows like he promised and he will perform well maybe we will see marky mark and the funky bunch again or the funk bs feat mark wahlberg
i like both walhbergs and new kids. I also loved FEAR which mark starred and have the honour of recommendin it to all my friends. That is a great movie that is not well known. Check it out. i think its marks first film.
Aah Marky! I don't blame him really but then never say never!!! Would be nice to have him make an appearance on NKOTB concert...I'm in Boston on 26th so will look out for you Marky :)
and me 20 years younger...lol
