Marley Marl早期是著名團體Juice Crew的製作人，Juice Crew的成員包括了Big Daddy Kane，Biz Markie，Roxanne Shanté，Kool G Rap，MC Shan，Masta Ace，這段時期內最出名的無非就是和Boogie Down Productions的“橋之戰”了，Marley Marl早期合作過的藝人還有King Tee和LL Cool J，Eric B & Rakim等等。
眾所周知，採樣是Hip-Hop製作的重要手段，Marley Marl更是採樣的先驅，最早的時候他是一位電子製作人，而後轉型，電子的元素越來越少，他幫那時紅得發紫的MC Shan就曾製作過“Down By Law（1987）”，“Born to be Wild（1988）”，他本人自己1985年的時候在Tuff City唱片公司下發行的個人的單曲“DJ Cuttin”奠定了他的地位，Marley Marl至今為止依然是最具傳奇性的DJ之一，同時也還是世界DJ組織“The Core DJ's”的成員之一。
如果你不了解Old School可能就很難知道Marley Marl，更別提他製作過的單曲，由於患有心臟病，Marley Marl近幾年的動作非常地少，也許如今美國的Hip-Hop大勢所趨，這些老製作人都很難再混口飯了，不管是Pete Rock，Premier，還是RZA，情況也不見得好到哪去。如果你想了解Mar ley Marl，07年他和KRS-One合作的專輯《Hip-Hop Lives》，還有08年和Craig G合作的《Operation：Take Back Hip-Hop》都值得你去聽聽。
