L-interess tiegħu fil-mużika kien ipprontat fl-età ta 'seba 'snin minn rapper Puertorikan Vico C. Is-sessjoni ta 'reġistrazzjoni l-ewwel ta 'Jowell saret fl-1996 għal Los Fugitivos f'studjo f'Levittown, Puerto Rico, fejn hu kkollabora ma 'rappers oħra bħal Nicky Jam, Master Joe & O.G. Black, Camaleón, u Buru Fat Z.

Randy Ortiz, min-naħa l-oħra, twieled f'ambjent mużikali li jinkludi rhythm u blues, blues, u mużika soul. Hu wkoll ħa sehem f'kor fi knisja Puertorikana matul is-snin formativi tiegħu.

Il-duett iltaqgħu waqt laqgħa f'dar Jowell fl-aħħar tas-snin 90 u ddeċidew li jikkollaboraw, ispirati minn atti reggaeton oħra bħal Baby Rasta & Gringo u Wisin & Yandel. Is-snin bikrija tagħhom kienu markati mill-ġlieda, inkluż fażi ta 'qrib ir-ritir fl-2005.

L-ewwel singlu tagħhom taħt l-etichetta l-ġdida, "Agresivo," sar hit, u marka l-entry tagħhom fil-reggaeton mainstream.

Their career trajectory took another turn with the formation of Casa de Leones, a reggaeton quintet that also included J King & Maximan and Guelo Star. The group's single "No Te Veo" became a major hit, but the group disbanded in 2008, allowing Jowell & Randy to focus on their duo career. Their debut studio album, "Los Más Sueltos del Reggaetón," was released in 2007, followed by "El Momento" in 2010.

Between 2010 and 2013, the duo went through a phase of experimentation and transformation. They initially planned to release "El Momento 2," a re-issue of their previous album with remix versions. However, this idea was scrapped, and they focused on their next studio album, "Sobredoxis," released in 2013. During this period, they also collaborated with various artists and were featured in mixtapes. They took a detour into underground reggaeton with their mixtape "Pre-Doxis," released in late 2012, which became popular in Puerto Rico.
