Biography
Marcus first appears in the episode "Roomies". A former rapping sensation called Lil' Little, he comes aboard the SS Tipton to attend Seven Seas High School and is assigned as Zack Martin's roommate. Marcus lived in Atlanta, Georgia as mentioned on his sash in "The Beauty and the Fleeced" and unfortunately lost his fame and career after his voice deepened.
Marcus has a crush on London Tipton, and is shown to be quite gullible, often believing Woody Fink's tall tales. Like London, he also has many famous contacts, but he is sensitive about the loss of his fame because he believes that his celebrity friends won't like him. However, he is later proven wrong by Jordin Sparks in the episode "Crossing Jordin".
In "Breakup in Paris", Marcus gets a surprise by a boy named Dante who is posing as him at a CD signing. Marcus and Dante argue over who's the real Lil' Little, but the crowd believes Dante because of a nearby lifesize cut-out. Later Marcus and Dante both sing at a Lil' Little concert. Mr. Moseby recognizes Marcus as the real Lil' Little and gets recognized himself, ending up with the crowd beating him with a bicycle, as pointed out by London afterwards. Marcus tells Dante they should work together someday. Later in "My, Oh Maya", Dante comes back pointing out he is a stowaway that got on the boat with a rope.
In the Season 3 episode "Das Boots", it is revealed that Marcus has extremely poor gameplay towards chess (despite winning a match after Cody opts to help Zack who is trapped in a submarine with minutes of air left) and that his grandfather only talks about the bus schedule. Marcus makes his final appearance in "Bon Voyage". At the end of this episode, he leaves the ship after he discovers that he will make a rap opera inspired by his one-hit song. Marcus quotes that he and his family will move to New York City so that Marcus can perform in his Broadway musical Retainer Baby. [1]
