Immersed in hip-hop culture since the age of 13, 8Two drew early inspiration from legends like Tupac, The Notorious B.I.G., N.W.A, and Wu-Tang Clan, as well as German rap pioneers such as Samy Deluxe, Savas, and the Berlin rap scene of the 2000s. His productions fuse hard-hitting drums with atmospheric melodies and meticulous mixing.

Under the Saa Recordz banner, he has collaborated with T-Ice, Namder, Stone Dee, Hirnspalt, Bakerz, and Lil Q. Releases such as Good Day, Hoodwalker, Reminder, Midnight Celebration, Die Nase und der Bart, Tigerhai, Phantom in the Mirror, and Saalutiert showcase his versatility – from uncompromising rap production to introspective lo-fi soundscapes.
