but he wasn't a one hit wonder. he actually had more than 7 or 8 top ten hits from his first album. I believe he was born in the UK, but actually lived in the USA during his teens, and started his music when he came back to the UK. the first album is actually quite good. Better than any shitty so called r&b these days. Plenty of excellent songs on there. he had a second EP called Who's the mack, that was ok, but more of a rehash of the first album. His last album, he had a pretty decent song on it, called "just a man", a pretty damn good soulful track. It's a pity it went unnoticed, as it was a decent return for him. he's got another album coming out, so maybe he might have some more decent songs on there, who knows. [Edited 10/31/09 6:42am] Mark was not big here in the States. Here, he was definitely a one-hit-wonder. I assume that was only because they only released one album for him in the States. I've heard some of his other material, but wasn't impressed by any of the songs. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

"Return of the Mack" was a top ten hit all over Europe and Australia in 1996 before it became a big hit in the states the following year. | |

At least Akon did write some good songs for other people. The one thing they have in common is that they are both as ugly as hell! **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

I didn't know this man was British until he got arrested. This is a nice jam from the past. The message you are about to hear are not meant for transmission.

I kinda knew... the video was shot from those bright flashing cameras and I knew it was shot in London. | |

Not long after this song broke huge he went down for trying to bring a gun onto an aircraft. May have perpetuated his 'gangster' image but didn't help the career. | |

Nar, he'd definitely be in one-hit wonder territory in the uk too. Further publicity was only on his brushes with the law. | |
