What's up with Biz?

I predict that in five or so years, when anything '80s will be cool, that a
lot of these early 80s hip-hop groups will
experience a surge in popularity again. Another artist will
sample/resurrect Run-DMC (much like how Run-DMC jump-started Aerosmith's
career), Melle Mel will come out of retirement and fat LinnDrums,
thundering Oberheim DMXs and human beat boxes will be the drum sounds of
choice again.
