T2 (born Tafadzwa Tawonezvi)[1] (born May 1988)[2] is an English record producer. His single "Heartbroken", featuring Jodie Aysha, hit No. 2 on the UK Singles Chart.[3] The song became popular among football fans because its video, which has had over three million hits on YouTube, featured stars Micah Richards and Anton Ferdinand.[4] T2 rewrote the lyrics of the tune late in 2007, in support of Ricky Hatton's boxing match against Floyd Mayweather.[5]

In 2008, T2 teamed up with Addictive to release "Gonna Be Mine".

He has also worked with Dizzee Rascal, Craig David and Rebecca Ferguson.
