== History ==
The group consisted of Samoan-New Zealand school friends rapper Jerry Tala Brown and beatboxer Jeremy Toomata who originally met at Otahuhu College. The pair started performing in 1988 as JJ and the Jammers, and the Double Jays.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://soundcloud.com/mike-chunn/02-a-fire-in-happy-land-mp3 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G-Wb7q1-PM )〕 They won two battle of the bands competitions, which brought them to the attention of Mike Chunn who signed them to his Definitv Records label, an imprint of EMI Music New Zealand.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://dubdotdash.blogspot.co.nz/2012/05/joel-and-nathan-haines-talking-all-that.html )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.aucklandcity.govt.nz/dbtw-wpd/exec/dbtwpub.dll?AC=QBE_QUERY&QF0=Record_ID&TN=LocHAM&RF=Displayweb&NP=2&QI0=65250 )〕
It was Chunn who suggested the duo perform a rap cover of "She's A Mod", inspired by the Fat Boys hit reworking of "Wipe Out" with The Beach Boys. Their four charting singles were co-written with Stanley Manthyng of World Gone Wild, another Definitiv Records act.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.amplifier.co.nz/artist/78122/manthyng.html?full=1 )〕 At the 1989 New Zealand Music Awards, the duo were nominated for three awards including Most Promising Group.〔 Their debut album ''All Wrapped Up'' was released in 1989, but did not chart. The group enjoyed three top-ten singles and released two more singles before breaking up in 1991.〔
In 1994 Jeremy Toomata teamed up with Herman Loto to form the hip hop duo Radio Backstab & DJ Payback. Their song "Bassed on a Lost Cause" appeared on the iconic New Zealand compilation album ''Proud: An Urban-Pacific Streetsoul Compilation''.
