In the late 90's Abe "A-Beatz" Delgado and Yobalni "Hazi" Puello got together to form the production duo "Illyjackz" and started making soulful but rugged Hip-Hop & R-n-B beats. With combined musical backgrounds and interests in Funk, Soul, Merengue, Salsa, House, Rock, Reggaeton, and classic Spanish R-n-B, Hazi and A-Beatz creations were influenced by many genres. A-Beatz says "It's so important to be open-minded to all different types of music. When you create beats like we do, it really does come out in the music you make".
Illyjackz credit many artists in ultimately inspiring and shaping the Illyjackz "sound". Nowadays you can look through their vast combined vinyl collection and find classic albums from iconic artists like Jimmy Hendrix, Julio Iglesias, La Lupe, Herb Alpert, Santana, Nina Simone, Public Enemy, The Jimmy Castor Bunch, RUN DMC and many more.
Together they’ve produced various released tracks including "Holla at the Kid" a song on independent Hip-Hop artist Rone's mix-tape which ended up moving roughly 6000 copies.
They also co-produced Universal Latino artist Krook Rock's song "All Night Long" and also provided 3 tracks for Krooks’ "Beats Mix-Tape" which to date has moved about 2500 copies. Currently Illyjackz continue to work on various Hip-Hop projects with unsigned artists but also submit tracks for movie, television, and commercial use.
