"I'm originally from Chicago, but I've spent a little time in Indianapolis, St. Louis, a few years in Ohio for school, but I'm in B-more holdin' it down!"An integral part of the success of that show was the parodys produced by the world famous "Breakfast Flakes"...Marc and Troy produced parody songs in honor of the last 7 season of the Baltimore Ravens...win or loose!

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 14/11/2006
Band Members: Troy Johnson, and Marc Clarke. Not only do we do songs together we also pen solo parodys too.
Influences: "Weird Al" Yancovic, Russ Parr, and any R&B or Hip Hop artist with songs that have appeal...those songs are perfect for that "Breakfast Flakes" remix! I'd like to meet people in the radio/television/communications industry. By the way, I'd love to network with people in the U.S. and U.K; who may have some insight on how to connect with media outlets that would be interested in a highly skilled person...who can announce, do prodution and voiceovers, and even character voices, and obvoiusly parody songs!
Record Label: Unsigned
