Two Tone/Bio/November 2015

Rachid Ben Messaoud, known as Two Tone, is a talented, versatile, resourceful and charismatic Moroccan Hip Hop artist who raps in both a low and high pitched voice. With 7 Number One Singles across the globe, Two Tone has also lent his talents to many collaborations featuring globally-recognised names in the music industry.

Born to Moroccan parents, Messaoud grew up in the Netherlands. During his younger years he had many brushes with the law, later reflecting that he was a "Thugged out Moroccan roaming the Dutch streets looking for a purpose in life."  In the 90's, Two Tone ran with underground street crew 252 Maindrive and it was during this time that he began to MC with famous names such as Ice-T, Waka Flocka and Krayzie Bones of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.

Two Tone's first visit to Dubai in 2007 had a lasting impact on the artist. The dramatic cityscapes and luxurious cars of Dubai feature heavily in his visually stunning music videos, celebrating all the elements that he loves most about the city. 

International recognition came swiftly for Two Tone in 2014 with the launch of Senorita - a monster hit in Morocco and Dubai. This collaboration with Erick Machado and Nengo Flow was to be the first of many with artists from all around the world.  

Since the massive success of 'Senorita', Two Tone has built Selfmade Entertainment DXB in his new home base in Dubai.  2014 and 2015 has seen 7 Number One Singles for Two Tone, including Senorita, Keep On Going (feat Tony Lenta and Erick Machado), Mektab/Destiny (feat Rhany),  Mind on Me and the recent collaboration Moroccan vocalist and Star Academy winner Ibtissam Tiskat on 'Weli Liya' (Coming Home), as well as two hit singles with Award winning Virgin Radio host Kris Fade, ‘In It For Love’ and the current Number One hit ‘I Woke Up Like This’. He has also been broadcast across the Middle East, Europe and South America on CNN, Fox Worldwide MBC and Super Canal, as well as featuring in many high profile newspapers and magazines.  

2016 will continue to see Two Tone produce lots of new music, as well as performances at major concerts and festivals across Europe and The Middle East. New collaborations with industry heavyweights across the globe are also on the way and a single on the soundtrack for upcoming animated film Bilal, featuring Will Smith and Queen Latifah.

A young Shaun Harriott learned at a very early age how to entertain his family. He watched his Mother and Father’s delight when their favourite songs were played on the family’s record player. So one day, at a family gathering at his East London home, the young boy reached into his Parent’s reggae collection and played his first selection to please his awaiting family. “ I had a passion to play for people as a child, I always had a good ear for music because there was so much good music playing in my home growing up, I still love Pat Kelly, John Holt and Gregory Isaacs to this day.” Be it prematurely, this was the beginning of Shaun’s love of dj'ing.

This is no coincidence, as Shaun’s musical heritage is as
solid as it is inspiring. His Grandfather is the great jazz legend Joe Harriott, (A pioneer of free form Jazz and the first black artist to play at Ronnie Scotts in London). His cousin is reggae singer Derrick Harriott and renowned music manager Winston Harriott is also a cousin.
“I’m extremely proud of my Granddad, his determination and focus took him to a place in which he could touch many with his gift. When I watch his videos on You Tube I listen in awe.”

At the age of 11 Shaun got his first musical epiphany when he heard Tyrone Brunson’s electro classic The Smurf, this track not only lead him into body popping within the local B-boy ensemble Techno Rock, but laid a foundation for his journey into the rave scene in the late 1980’s. It was in this crew that he received the name that would christen his dj career Sharkeye. But popping wasn’t enough to engage him, experiencing his first acid house rave and hearing the inspirational DJ Mix Master Max. Shaun left his B boy dance moves, for the record shop and turntables and started practicing, he honed his deejay circuit skills in a small sound system called Smooth Intentions,with his partner Mc WONDER (Roland Ovid) who was also an inspiration to him , shaun says we bounced off each other makin it easy and  loving the music more as were best of friends playing Soul and Rare groove. However the hypnotic pumping bass of this new music scene kept pulling Sharkeye back. He was then obsessively emulating the then pirate radio dj’s of the day.

In a chance meeting with two other pioneering figures in rave music. Dj Apache and Mc Fearless of the Brainkillers who were then playing on legendary hardcore/jungle radio station Weekend Rush fm, who said they would pass on his tape to the management of Rush. Subsequently, the following week Dj Sharkeye and MC Wonder  started their Sunday slot on the station. For the next few years Sharkeye played the circuit of clubs and raves.

As years went by Sharkeye, looked back to the genre that introduced him into the rave scene, House music.
Sharkeye started collecting and mixing different styles of the music. However the bumpy tech styles of house music is what he loves the most and is more similar to the thumping rhythms of early acid house in London.

Dj Sharkeye is resident  on unknown fm
