Young MC (Marvin Young) crashed the Hip Hop Top 40 charts in 1989 with his number one hit, "Bust A Move". He also wrote two hit songs for Ton Loc on the Delvinals label. They were "Wild Thing", and "Funky Cold Medina". He was then involved in a two year long law suit with his record company where he lost over $2, 000, 000 in revenue as a result of the brutal industry battle. After that, and three years later, he released another album that went no where. He also released a couple country flavored singles that received a bit of air play on country stations around the world, but went no where on the Billboard charts. After contracting Hepatitus C through an accidental blood transfusion as a result of an drive by shooting, he was hospitalized for over one year. The next few years he went through many years of trouble with the law including an incident where it was allegedly reported that he shot his father. He was then admitted to the Betty Ford Center, where he sobered up for less than two mounths, and was back on the street, and back into drugs. Since then, he has been in and out of jail, and most recently was reported to have gotten a job pumping gas at a Philadelphia gas station with Howard Stern Phony Phone Caller, Captain Janks.
