Wesley Johnson (born 1977), known by his stage name 2Play,[1] is a British musician, record producer, and former mixed martial artist.

Music career

2Play is a MOBO Award–winning record producer and musician.[2] He is best known for songs with the Canadian-Indian singer Raghav, as well as collaborations with a number of artists including Jucxi D, Naila Boss, Thomas Jules and Moni.

2Play first entered the music scene in 1997 as a UK garage producer under the alias Special T.[3]

He has had two UK Top 10 hit singles: "So Confused" (featuring Raghav and Jucxi) and "It Can't Be Right" (featuring Raghav and Naila Boss).[4] A cover of Kevin Lyttle's "Turn Me On" featuring Raghav and Jucxi appeared as a B-side to the single "So Confused". In 2005, "So Confused" also won "Best Single" at the UK Asian Music Awards.[5]
