Shamir Shine (Shineomite 2020) is an electronica/hip hop/lo-fi/broken beat/dnb producer, composer, vocalist, and DJ based in Pittsburgh, PA, US.
His recording career began in Pittsburgh PA in 1994 as an artist on the now defunct indie label Native Soul, performing under the name of BamTwice.  

Once part of the mega-group, the Massive (10-11 emcees) he  later would take on the alias of Shamir Shine when a faction of that collective began break off to record music under the name of called RXC (Reality Unknown Complex) or just RX, for short. With 5% teaching infused in the lyrics and subject matter the music rode the borderline between conscious music and lyricism. 

RXC also had many groups under the umbrella of Classic 1824 Music including  Afro-Cinema (Shamir Shine and CI (MCI)), Foreign Nationals, Sha-King, Nabri Savior, I-Asia, Goldenseal, and later in 2000's  Gneticz, Angel-Eye, and Living Proofe. 

RXC was responsible for throwing a monthly hip hop showcase in the late 90's called THERAPUTIX which gave the city an outlet to perform and gave a whole list of the cities noted hip hop performers and DJ their proverbial wings. 

RX, Shamir or factions thereof have opened for many national acts that came to the city of steel including, KillArmy, the Roots, Camp-Lo, Eminem and the Outsidaz, and more. 

Shamir Shine now performs mainly as a producer/beatmaker under the name of SHINEOMITE 2020 and WaveSlicer MK-1 and has used many other monikers since. The eclectic nature of this artist has him re-inventing himself as he explores his musicality. You never know if he has a complex or is just complex. He's a Gemini and it's simply complicated.
