Marc Wilson biography

Marc (or Mak) Wilson was born in Lagos. He started off his music career at an early age and was at a time in the high school the president of the musical society. After gettinig his diploma in a professional school in business administration, he left Nigeria to go to Germany. At first he had to do little jobs such as dish washing as kitchen help, then he worked himself up to an export manager in a computer company.

He signed a record deal with German label Town Records. He recorded Jack The City Boy which was finally not released. Single Locomotion included 2 tracks as B-side : Dance With Friends and Waltz Of Tekno. Songs were produced by Gene Coach (aka Günther Kutsch), recorded and mixed by Bernie Getz. The female vocals on Locomotion were recorded by Melanie Thornton, even if she was not credited on the sleeve.

This first single was followed by 2 others : Feel My Body (including a B-side, his very first song Jack The City Boy), C'est La Vie (written and composed by Markc Wilson himself, with Kurt Hierols and Marco Besler, featuring the background vocalists Kathryn Troyer and Andrea Kreis). Due to bad promotion, single did not sell well, so Marc quit the label.

Then he got signed under independent label Manifold/Compile music to release Make My Day (including a Radio Mix, a Original Club Mix, an Extended Dance Mix and a MMM-Mix). It was included on a Japanese compilation selling over 250000 copies. As for the song Taste Of Luv, it was only released on compilation from the famous Dancemania series. But this did not bring Marc the recognition he deserved, so he left the records company.

Then he released song Ezumbale under alias Lalit under a friend's independent records company Jakay Records. Song was rated # 8 in Mallorca international chart and rated with 5 stars by Bravo Magazine. Then Marc did a pause.

2010 : he was back with a new style, Afro Pop. His new song was entitled Isi Ebube and it was a collaboration with singer Charlotte Williams. He also recorded the dance song You Are My Fantasy

2014 : he was featured on God Bless the Children eponymous single, a charity song dedicated to the over 300 Chibok girls abducted by the Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram in Nigeria.

2024 : he was featured on his longtime friend DJ Rufus single Bi Ba Be Le.
