DJ Marley Marl was an early innovator in the art of sampling, developing new techniques that resulted in some of the sharpest beats and hooks in rap’s Golden Age. He has worked with many artists and producers over the years that he personally invites for candid conversations on this podcast. 

In discussing the podcast, DJ Marley Marl says, “Legendize is about bringing people together, people that made history, we’re gonna talk about songs, we’re gonna tell stories, we’re going to bring you inside like you were there.”

“Music is the universal language, so we’re gonna speak to the entire world,” co-host DJ Callie Ban adds. “I’m a fan, I’m working alongside the legendary DJ Marley Marl…. One thing about the Legendize podcast, when it hits you, you’re not gonna feel no pain, you’re just gonna love the feeling that you get.”

Hailing from Queensbridge, DJ Marley Marl revolutionized hip-hop when he discovered the practice of sampling drum sounds and creating his own boom-bap rhythms which yielded gems such as “The Bridge” by MC Shan and the timeless hit, “The Symphony” by The Juice Crew. His production work for many artists generally boasted a bright, booming, and robust sound that along with his ear for a catchy sample, helped move street-level hip-hop into more accessible territory. The sonic architect of Cold Chillin’ Records and the Juice Crew, DJ Marley Marl was rap’s first super-producer, crafting mega hits for LL Cool J, Rakim, Biz Markie, Big Daddy Kane, Roxanne Shante, TLC  and countless others.
