Biography

San Diegan bass music artist Jonny Z. began performing in the early '90s and scored his first hit in 1993 with "Shake-Shake," which was released by Quality Records and reached the Top 40 of Billboard's dance chart. He repeated this success with his 1996 self-titled debut album, which included three other Top 40 dance chart hits, "No Señor," "Mamacita," and "Latin Swing." Two years later, his follow-up, Z 1 N Only, appeared; he then switched to the One Love imprint for his third album, 1999's Sancho Villa. The following year, Jonny Z. moved to Thump Records and released his fourth full-length, Bass Balla, which featured contributions from Tequila Mission, the South Park Mexican, and ODM from a Lighter Shade of Brown and other like-minded artists. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide

Jonny Z is a hip hop artist.

Z first began working with eventual Grammy-winning producer Doug Rasheed in the mid 1990's. He scored his first Billboard Top 40 Dance Single with "Shake Shake (Shake Your Culo)". In 1996 came his hit "Latin Swing". His debut album featured "No Senor (Drop Your Chonas)" and "Mamacita". He made a Latino version of Rodney O and Joe Cooley's classic "Everlasting Bass" featuring South Park Mexican a.k.a. SPM, which led to him starting his own label "One Lil Vato". A few marginal hits followed including "Ku-Ku" and "Te La Pongo". Besides bass music, he also recorded some funk-influenced hip hop on his earlier albums. Among those early tracks, the Chicano anthem "Orale".
