Jocelyn Enríquez is a dance singer from San Francisco (born December 28, 1974). She is of Filipino descent: her parents are from the province of Pangasinan.
Her debut album, Lovely was released in 1994 on Classified Records. In 1996, she moved to Tommy Boy Records, where she released her debut single, "Do You Miss Me" in late 1996 and her sophomore album, Jocelyn in early 1997. Jocelyn peaked at #182 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and at #11 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers chart. Jocelyn Enriquez graduated from Pinole Valley High School in 1993.
"Do You Miss Me" became a top 40 hit at dance and pop radio (#17 and #38 peaks, respectively), and peaked at #49 on the Hot 100. Its follow up, "A Little Bit Of Ecstasy" was not quite as big a radio hit, failing to cross over to the pop stations and peaking at #25 at dance radio. However, it had stronger sales than "Do You Miss Me" (peaking at #1 on the Hot Dance Music/Maxi-Singles Sales chart, as opposed to #8), which enabled it to reach #55 on the Hot 100. "A Little Bit Of Ecstasy" is remembered to this day, due to its recent inclusion on the DDRMAX2 PlayStation 2 game. Pop punk band Lucky Boys Confusion later covered "Do You Miss Me" on their 2001 album .
Since 1997, Enriquez has had several club hits in America such as "Big Love", but has not received radio support or gotten sales support from the mainstream public. However, she did score another pop hit in 1999, as part of a supergroup called Stars on 54, which consisted of Enriquez, Dutch Eurodance performer Amber, and house diva Ultra Nate; the three women joined forces to cover the disco tune "If You Could Read My Mind" for the movie Studio 54.
In 2000/1, She appeared on the Cindy Margolis show performing her hit "When I Get Close To You" which topped the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart.
In 2003, Enriquez released her third album, All My Life, and started her own record label, JEM Entertainment. Two singles were released from the album: "No Way No How" and "Why". The albums lead single "No Way No How" became a surprise hit faring well on Rhythmic/Dance format radio and at Discoteques. It peaked at #1 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart.
She is credited as a guest vocalist on Thunderpuss's track "So Fabulous So Fierce," which also appears in the Dance Dance Revolution video game series.
Also credited with helping launch her career is the talented Glenn Gutierrez, a well known music producer from the Bay Area who also produced for Stevie B in the early 1980s.
