Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock “It Takes Two” Hoodie

“I wanna rock right now!”

Released in 1988, “It Takes Two” by Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock brought hip hop to the dancefloor in a whole new way. With explosive energy, call-and-response rhymes, and an unstoppable sample of Lynn Collins’ “Think (About It),” the track became one of the most recognizable — and most played — hip hop songs of all time.

A staple at every party, club night, and old-school set, “It Takes Two” blurred the lines between rap and pop, becoming a breakout hit that helped bring hip hop into the mainstream. Its infectious hook, hard-hitting beat, and chant-ready lyrics made it a certified gold single and a forever classic.

Released on Profile Records, one of the leading indie hip hop labels of the 1980s (also home to Run-D.M.C.), the 12-inch single came with extended mixes and edits DJs couldn’t get enough of. This tee features the original Profile label artwork — a piece of hip hop history that still gets the crowd hyped.

From block parties to global charts — this was the jam that made it all move. Wear “It Takes Two” and bring the hype with you.
