Your 80s Hip Hop Trax: 'It Takes Two' by DJ EZ Rock and Rob Base (1988)

Your 80s Hip-Hop Trax is back, and this week we are featuring the epic 1988 hit hip-hop classic It Takes Two, by DJ EZ Rock and Rob Base. DJ E-Z Rock (Rodney "Skip" Bryce) and Rob Base (Robert Ginyard) are a hip-hop duo from Harlem, New York who formed back in 1985 and were best known for the multi-platinum single It Takes Two. The song It Takes Two was a single hit off of the duo's debut platinum-certified album of the same title, It Takes Two. The slowly climbed the Billboard Top 40 chart  to eventually peak at #36, and it hit #3 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. Previously, I hadn't even realized this was an 80s song as I would have guessed and early 90s sound, but it was indeed 1988. So there it is, and if you want to see what's next you will have to stay tuned, and we are getting close to finishing off the Top 100 80s Dance Countdown as well!
