Biography

Johnny B. and Kamal are caustic phone-pranksters whose debut effort was the best-selling comedy album of 1993. Their second album, Jerky Boys 2, was released in 1994. The Jerky Boys Movie arrived in theaters the following year; it received poor reviews and low ticket sales. Nevertheless, the duo kept cranking out material, breaking the string of eponymous numbered releases in 1999 with their fifth album, Stop Staring at Me.
