J.J. Fad formed in 1985 in Rialto, California, rising as a standout act on Ruthless Records with DJ Train spinning the decks. The group earned early acclaim for their high-energy, dance-floor-friendly hip-hop, helping to shape the late-80s West Coast sound. Their breakthrough came with the 1988 album Supersonic, featuring the title track and dance-floor staples that carried the group to the top of US charts and earned a Grammy nomination. Since reuniting in 2021, J.J. Fad has re-emerged at retro events and freestyle showcases, while expanding into new material and performance opportunities in 2025.
