He has worked with DJs such as Luny Tunes, Naldo, Urba & Monserrate, Notty, and Noriega. He appeared as a guest in the album Pa'l Mundo, in a song with Wisin & Yandel called "Sensación". The song was a minor hit.

Tony Dize broke through with the song "Quizás", on the album Los Vaqueros. The official remix of the song features Ken-Y. He was signed to WY Records and his first production, La Melodía De La Calle, was released on April 22, 2008.

He was a member of Pina Records, after leaving WY Records over disputes with Wisin. After disputes with Raphy Pina (owner of Pina Records) he left the record company. A few years later, he is working as an independent artist.
