Jowell y Randy

Jowell & Randy are one of the most popular reggaeton artists that have arised since the mid 2000's. Jowell Munoz Marinez, born in Springfield, Massachusetts on March 3, 1982, and Randy Acevedo Ortiz, born in San Juan, Puerto Rico on January 15, 1983, formed their dynamic duo in the early 2000's after being introduced to one another by a producer the two were working with. The two both started their solo careers years before, but soon joined when they discovered eachothers' talent. Jowells recorded his first song in 1996 entitled "Los Fugitivos" and Randy came onto the reggaeton scene in 1998 working on a record that was being produced by In House Magazine. Individually, Jowell & Randy displayed their talent, but it was not until the duo came together and recorded their first single, Todavia Recuerdo, that they were truly recognized on the reggaeton scene. This song was highly recognized by many radio stations, leading Jowell y Randy to record more music, which would later be a huge success. They recorded music on records entitled Time to Kill Vol. 2, Zona de Perreo, and Ground Zero. They gained fame in the United States with the release of their song "No Voy a Parar" and have now been featured in songs with other popular reggaeton artists such as Tito "El Bambino" and De La Ghetto. Jowell y Randy also formed the group Casa de Leones with three other artists and released the song No Te Veo, which has been their most popular song thus far. Jowell y Randy decided to change labels, officially joining the artists under WY Records and will soon be releasing their second album entitled "El Momento" in March 2010.
