“It Takes Two” by Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock
Manage episode 500052477 series 2974490
HIT IT! Few tracks ignite a dance floor like Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock’s 1988 classic, “It Takes Two.” Built around an infectious sample from Lyn Collins’ “Think (About It),” this platinum-certified anthem didn’t just dominate clubs—it helped hip-hop cross over into the mainstream. Despite the duo’s explosive debut, follow-up efforts like Rob Base’s solo album The Incredible Base and their 1994 reunion Break of Dawn failed to recapture that magic. This week, we dig into the legacy of “It Takes Two” and ask: is it fair to call the duo known for “It Takes Two” a ONE hit wonder?
