Dutch rapper Ray Slijngaard was one half of one of the biggest European dance acts of the 1990s. Between 1991 to 1996, 2 Unlimited scored 13 Top 40 hits, including Get Ready For This, Twilight Zone and the irresistible 1993 earworm No Limit. Now 2 Unlimited are returning to the UK for a massive We Love The 90s arena tour this December alongside Whigfield, Snap!, Haddaway, Vengaboys and many more. Classic Pop caught up with Ray to discuss nostalgia, groupies and whether there ever were any limits to their popularity.
This is a big tour, it feels like there’s now more love for the 90s than ever.
We did a couple of one-offs in the UK and it started to get bigger. We have worked on these shows for almost 20 years and done them in France and Germany where we were playing in 15,000-capacity venues.
