Marques Houston was ‘thee’ child star of the 90’s, R&B singer, songwriter, dancer, and actor was a member of the R&B group Immature/IMx from 1990 to 2002, before going solo in 2003. Now the legendary artist, actor, writer, director & producer Marques Houston brings us into his world in episode one of his documentary that pairs with his newly released album The Best, Worst Year Ever, in new two part docu-series, ‘The Best, Worst Year Ever: The World Of Marques Houston.’
Born in Los Angeles, Marques Barrett Houston made his singing and acting debut at the age of ten in 1992. He provided the voice of Kahlil in Robin Harris’ animated film Bebe’s Kids, the soundtrack of which was the platform for his first single with IMx (then known as Immature), “Tear It Up (On Our Worst Behavior).” From 1992 through 2001, IMx released six albums, most notably the platinum Playtyme Is Over, and placed over a dozen singles on the charts, peaking on the Billboard Hot 100 at number five with “Never Lie.” In tandem with his continued acting career — highlighted by five seasons as Roger Evans on the sitcom Sister, Sister — Houston began his solo career in 2003. Although nine years passed between Famous and Houston’s next LP, Houston continued to juggle music with acting and at the same time got more involved with writing and producing films, primarily for BET. Immature reunited to perform and record, and in 2017, amid work on small-screen projects, Houston wrote the screenplay for ‘Til Death Do Us Part, a Chris Stokes-directed theatrical thriller he also co-produced.
‘The Best, Worst Year Ever: The World Of Marques Houston.’ Part 1 & 2 are out now on Tubi & Amazon Prime.
