At this period Houston went by the nickname "Batman". The group released four albums under the name Immature.

In 1999, the group underwent a name change but continued on to release two albums under the name IMx: Introducing IMx (1999) and IMx (2001). The group also branched out into film (such as House Party 4: Down to the Last Minute) and television (such as A Different World) before disbanding in 2002.

Although many videos have already been released the first official single is still set to be "I Love Her", to be followed by "Sunset" (due to the album being pushed back[by whom?] in 2009).
[edit] Mattress Music and IMx reunion (2010–present)

On September 14, 2010, Houston released his fifth studio album, Mattress Music, which contained his two singles "Kickin' & Screamin' and "Pullin' on Her Hair". Houston announced on 106 & Park that IMx planned to record another group album together for 2011.[citation needed]
[edit] Other music work

Houston continues to work with former bandmate Jerome "Romeo" Jones (as of 2010[update] known as Young Rome). Houston made guest appearances on Jones' album Food for Thought (2004) on songs entitled "Sexapade" and "What Cha Doin' Tonight" while Jones made a guest appearance on Houston's album Naked on the song entitled "All Because of You". The two also collaborated on "For Your Love", a song from an unreleased album by Young Rome.

Houston made guest appearances on fellow TUG Entertainment artist Mila J's single "Good Lookin' Out" and Yung Joc's single "1st Time"; he made appearances in both music videos.

Houston featured on 50 Cent's remix to the hit single "Candy Shop", which also featured Dame Four.
[edit] Acting career

Houston made his acting debut in the animated comedy film Bébé's Kids (1992) in which he was the voice of Khalil, the leader and oldest child of the titular "Bébé's Kids".

Houston later appeared in House Party 3 (1994), where he played a fictional version of himself along with fellow Immature bandmates Jerome "Romeo" Jones and Don "Half Pint" Santos. In the film, they portrayed Kid's trouble-making younger cousins who aspire to become musicians.

Houston's breakthrough role came when he won the part of Roger Evans in the television comedy show Sister, Sister, playing the next-door neighbor of identical twin sisters Tia Landry and Tamera Campbell (Tia and Tamera Mowry). Marques played the role for five of the show's six seasons. The show wrote his character out of the script during the fifth season, but he made a guest appearance in the series finale.

In 1999, shortly after Houston's lengthy yet valiant run on the Sister, Sister program, Marques dipped his toes into the choppy waters of the hip-hop film industry with a brief cameo in Destiny Child's video rendition of the The Writing's on the Wall single Jumpin', Jumpin' directed by Joseph Kahn. [9]

He also played the character Elgin Barrett Eugene Smith III in the 2004 film You Got Served. Following You Got Served, in both live-action and voiceover, he portrayed Dumb Donald in the film adaptation of Fat Albert, based on Bill Cosby's popular cartoon series Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids.

In 2005 Houston starred in his own television series, Cuts, which was a spin-off of One on One. Despite good ratings, the show only lasted one season due to UPN merging with The WB to become The CW which caused Cuts along with many other UPN shows to get cancelled.

In 2007 Houston starred in the horror film Somebody Help Me. He then starred in the sequel, Somebody Help Me 2, in 2010. He announced in an interview[citation needed] that there will be a Somebody Help Me 3 and Somebody Help Me 4. Somebody Help Me 3 is supposed to premiere 2011 Halloween on BET with Somebody Help Me 4 in theaters probably in 2012.[citation needed]
