Tone Loc was born to James and Margaret Smith, and was raised in Compton, where he became a member of the Crip’s gang, as he was troublemaker in his teens. However, before the beginning of the 1990s, he managed to launch his career as a rapper, and later as an actor. His debut album was released in 1989, entitled “Lōc-ed After Dark”, topping the US charts and achieving double platinum status, which certainly increased his net worth by a large degree. Tone Loc released his second and last studio album so far in 1991, under the title “Cool Hand Lōc”, but it was a major bust compared to his previous release, as it failed even to chart, not to mention poor sales.

He also featured in Spy Hard” (1996), and “Freedom Strike” (1998), among others, all of which added to his net worth.

With the beginning of the 2000s, he has become more dedicated to voice acting, but has also appeared in several film and TV productions. Some of voice acting credits in the 2000s, include “Whispers: An Elephant’s Tale” (2000), “King of the Hill” (2005), “Chowder” (2008), “White T” (2013), and “Uncle Grandpa” (2014).
