August 12, 1985 marked the birth date of Shayanne Andujar, formally known as “Clubz”, but now known to the world as Jonni Vegaz. Born and raised in the Bronx, NY, he was originally known for his skills on the basketball court and talent as a sketch artist throughout his early life into his teenage years, however, it was at the age of 9 that he began to grow a passion for Hip Hop when he began writing down the lyrics of songs by other artists, which enabled him to learn the format of writing songs. From then on his passion for music grew stronger and so he continued to write his own music. He began participating in numerous rap battles and talent shows and quickly became well known for his rap talent.

It wasn’t until the age of 15 that Jonni Vegaz decided creating music was one of his many gifts. He relocated to Paterson,N.J. in 1999 where his ambition grew even stronger, collaborating with other local artists from his neighborhood, being featured on mixtapes hosted by local d.js, and performing at night clubs, but that was only the beginning. In 2002, he and his family moved down to Tampa,FL, and in 2005, released his debut mixtape, ”Stop da Bank Vol.1”, following up with Vol. 2 in 2007 which quickly gained him local fame in the Tampa Bay area. As the release of music and music videos continued, he began performing in open mic shows and appearing on various mixtapes. While he continued to put his name out gaining more exposure releasing more  remarkable mixtapes including ”Life Is Good: The Mixtape” currently available on iTunes, he found employment to earn his financial backing to purchase beats, studio time, photo shoots, website, as well as take care of his family. In 2009, he put down the microphone for a while and founded Stop Da Bank Entertainment, specializing in filming, music videos, and event promotions.

Jonni Vegaz used his networking and business skills to his advantage by always staying on the scene and filming exclusive events, including live performances by Gucci Mane, Trina, Plies, Joe, Monica, Juelz Santana, Jadakiss, Montel jordan, Damien Marley, B.O.B, and many more growing his popularity in Tampa,F.L. Jonni Vegaz started a YouTube channel showcasing his work for the world to see that not only does Stop Da Bank produces music, they also provide video production services as well, it wasn’t long after Jonni Vegaz began shooting his own music videos (to avoid video producer cost) adding more material to his portfolio as well as pursuing a career as an actor, Jonni Vegaz continues to record music, song write multiple genres of music, film, and act to single handedly bring the Stop Da Bank Entertainment empire world wide. The sky is obviously not the limit for the self made entrepreneur Jonni Vegaz.
