We don’t talk enough about Roscoe Lee Browne’s outstanding performance of Kingpin in the 1994 Spider Man cartoon series.
I believe that Roscoe Lee Browne gave Kingpin a such a classy, sophisticated villain voice that could never be replicated. We don’t talk enough about how Roscoe gave Kingpin such a distinct and powerful voice for such an iconic villain.

She was born in Washington, D.C. and studied ballet, jazz, and tap dance as a child. Her career began in television as a dance posse member on BET's Teen Summit. She signed with University Records, an imprint of Interscope Records to release her first album Mya(1998). The album was led by her first single, "It's All About Me" (featuring Sisqó), which peaked within the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100. Her subsequent collaborative singles, "Ghetto Supastar (That Is What You Are)" (with Pras and Ol' Dirty Bastard) and "Take Me There" (with Blackstreet and Mase), were also met with commercial success.
Mya Harrison, a native of Washington, D.C., is the eldest of three children. Her father Sherman "Hajji" Harrison is a singer and performs in an R&B band, Jump Street[13] and her mother Theresa worked as an accountant. She grew up in Prince George's County with her two younger brothers Chaz and Nijel.[14] In her youth, Mýa dealt with bullying growing up as a biracial young person with a Black father and a white mother.[15]

Mýa studied tapes of Tony Award winner Savion Glover until she learned his routines and then joined the group T.W.A. (Tappers With Attitude). She was solo before heading to New York to study with Glover in a residency with the Dance Theater of Harlem.

Mýa subsequently appeared on BET's Teen Summitand began to teach dance to children when she was 14. She also had taken violin lessons since the fourth grade. Her strict upbringing emphasized the value of school and working hard to get good grades. When her father first heard her sing, he had her record demo tapes and took them to a club where he was playing. There he met A. Haqq Islam, President and CEO of University Music. Islam agreed to come to Mýa's home, where she sang him two En Voguesongs. Impressed with her audition, Islam signed her to a deal via his label and negotiated a distribution deal through Interscope Records.[14][16]
