Rob Base "It Takes Two" Has Passed Away

Featured Replies

Starting back in 1988 up to present, this song has been played everywhere.

No party or cookout or gathering is complete without this song.

Rob Base born Robert Ginyard passed away from cancer @ 59 years old. RIP.😎



Don't forget "Joy (what else? what else?) and Pain".....lol.

May our good brother rest in peace and power.

Talk about a generation gap. I am unfamiliar with Rob Base. But I do join the music world in mourning the passing of legendary jazz saxophonist, Sonny Rollins, who just joined that celestial combo in the sky. He was in his 90s.

Wow! As @ProfD suggested this song was not only played everywhere it was guaranteed to people on the dance floor especially back in the day when men and women danced together.
