Biography
Formed in Mobile, Alabama in the late 1980s, hip-hop act B-Rock and the Business Boyzz â later shortened to B-Rock and the Bizz â enjoyed a short-lived period in the spotlight with the release of their 1997 single âMyBabyDaddyâ, an RIAA Gold-certified novelty track which peaked at number ten on the Billboard Hot 100. Originally comprised of frontman and producer Baron âB-Rockâ Agee, his brother Leevirt Agee, Thaddeus âT-Birdâ Maye and Paul Costict, the group inked a deal with LaFace Records ahead of the hit singleâs release, although would ultimately part ways with the label, causing them to postpone the release of their debut album, Porkinâ Beans and Wienes. The LP eventually arrived in 1999 via Rawcast Entertainment, a label co-founded by B-Rock himself, and did not chart. A Ludacris-assisted remix of the album cut âMymamanemâ, retitled âMamanimâ, landed in 2002, as did an eighteen-track LP of the same name, which featured contributions from future hitmaker and GRAMMY Award-winner The-Dream in place of former member T-Bird. Although they disbanded soon thereafter, B-Rock would go on to have a fruitful career as a producer. His more high-profile credits included Lisa âLeft Eyeâ Lopesâs posthumous 2009 track âCrank Itâ; a collaboration with Rick Ross, Gunplay and The Game the same year entitled âGangsta Shitâ; and a 2010 remix of Usherâs âNice & Slowâ featuring guest vocals from Twista.
