Career[edit]

Los Jetz[edit]

Peña first achieved notoriety after performing at the Astrodome in Houston, Texas during a Selena tribute concert in 1995 while under management with Q-Productions and Abraham Quintanilla II, who was Selena's father and former manager.

Peña's first studio album Dulzura released in May 1996 as part of Jennifer y Los Jetz was produced by Abraham Quintanilla III and introduced her to the music scene officially at the age of 12 with the title track and 'Ven a mí' (a Spanish-language cover of The Drifters^[1]' 'Dance with Me') garnered her a loyal fanbase. The album sold quite well in the Latin market, certified gold and winning several Tejano Music Awards. At the time Tejano Music was in its prime and Peña was another staple act in the scene. Her introduction was both praised and criticized mainly in part due to the artistic similarities between Selena and she. The comparisons came and went, but Peña managed to continue winning over fans. The year 1997 saw the release of her second album, Jennifer Y Los Jetz , with the singles 'Tu Castigo' and 'Yo Te Vi', being promoted and drawing the same level of success Dulzura had achieved winning another gold certification.

In 1998, she released Mariposa with 'Tengo Miedo' as the lead single, another hit in the Latin market, and in Mexico where she toured extensively, the album became Peña's third album to be certified gold. By 2000 Peña was the most prominent female Tejano singer for which had been long dubbed La Princesa De La Musica Tejano ( The Princess Of Tejano Music) her most commercially and critically acclaimed album while under Q's management was 2000's Abrázame y Bésame, for which Peña was now billed as a solo act but still with band Los Jetz the album was produced by A.B. Quintanilla. Showcasing a more mature sound for Peña, the title track, a duet with former Kumbia Kings frontman DJ Kane, was the most successful single. Other hits - 'Si Tú Te Vas', 'Contigo Otra Vez', and 'No Te Voy a Perdonar' - hit strong again in the US and in Mexico, garnering her a 2001 Grammy nomination and multiple Tejano Music Awards. Peña continued to promote and tour extensively after the release of every album under Q's management and with Label EMI Latin.

Univision Music Group and Latin pop venture[edit]

In 2002, Peña released Libre, produced by Rudy Pérez and Kike Santander. Rudy Pérez wrote the album's biggest hits: 'Vamos al Mundial', which was chosen as the anthem for the 2002 FIFA World Cup on Univision; and 'El Dolor de Tu Presencia', which catapulted Peña's popularity, spending eight consecutive weeks at #1 on Billboard's Hot Latin Tracks. 'Entre el Delirio y la Locura' soon followed. Libre sold over 300,000 units. In 2003, Libre was nominated for a Grammy.

Since the release, both the album and single have garnered only a lukewarm reception, despite cracking the Top 25 positions on Billboard and selling out the initial shipment of 80,000 units. Peña is on hiatus after having promoted the album all across the US and Puerto Rico with TV slots on MTV Tr3s as the artist of the month and extensive radio promotion.
