Marvin Bernard (born March 31, 1978), better known by his stage name Tony Yayo, is an American rapper. He is a founding member of G-Unit, a hip hop group he formed in 1999 with fellow New York City-based rappers 50 Cent and Lloyd Banks. Yayo signed with G-Unit Records and Interscope Records to release his debut studio album, Thoughts of a Predicate Felon (2005), which debuted at number two on the Billboard 200.

His stage name is derived from the 1983 film, Scarface, referencing the main character Tony Montana, and yayo, a slang word for cocaine.
