Ridha worked as a resident DJ in the Hamburg house club La Cage in 1999 and in the same year teamed up with Meid as a producer duo. At that time he was already working on productions for artists such as Samy Deluxe , Absolute Beginner , Fettes Brot and Ferris MC .

A first major success came in 2003 with the piece Young Love (Topless) , which was also shown on music channels such as VIVA . This track was later remixed by Boris Dlugosch and was heard in a Coca Cola commercial in Scandinavia. Ridha contributed the vocals for the track rather involuntarily. The singer booked for the first release did not appear in the studio and so he sang the lyrics himself. The duo is also one of the acts in Microsoft's Brand New Artists campaign .

In 2004, the debut album Colorz appeared , which came up with some guest features such as the American Kimo Green or Ms Marx. Two years later the second album Restless was released . The duo broke up in 2007 because Rhida wanted to start a solo career. He is currently known under the pseudonym Boys Noize .
