FIRST TIME HEARING Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock - It Takes Two REACTION 

Fun fact: Everyone my age (including me) knows every single word to this song. (I'll be 46 next month.)

This was THE song of that summer. In every house party, park jam, club. This song rang out in the streets everywhere. Seriously.

In 1988 I was 19 here I am 51 and this song still makes me get up and dance 💃🏽 I can’t remember what I had for lunch yesterday lol but I know every lyric to this song. Love it!!!

I am 57 years old and still can't sit still when this song plays...

I just can’t believe y’all never heard these songs before. I need to speak with your parents for not sharing all these awesome songs with y’all. 😂😂 I love y’all reactions.

I hollered when you guys said, "Hold up! I wasn't expecting THIS! They were JAMMIN' back in the day!" LOL! Yesss, we were! 😄🔥💯

Remember dancing moving your whole body not just a tik tok video or standing in vip section at a club! Who remembers leaving a club nasty and sweaty from dancing all night

"Stay away from me if you're contagious." That's my mantra for this year.

"Stay away from me if you're contagious" -Rob Base 1988 and Me, 2020.

Rob Bass and DJ Easy Rock's "Joy and Pain"

As an official old person it's just so unexpectedly gratifying to see young people listening to the music of my adolescence. Love this channel

Y'all don't understand. When this song was huge, that opening tone made EVERYONE jump up and yell and run to the dance floor. It was about to be lit. "Right about now-now-now..." It was on!

I'm "I had that joint on cassette tape" years old 🤣🤣🤣

This is Pioneer rap right here. It's a staple, like the Sugarhill gang. If you don't know.....you need to.

My feelings were hurt when he said “back in the day” sheesh... that was my day. 🤷🏾‍♀️

It amazes me that there are people on this planet that never heard this song, at least 1 million times.

You gotta do “The Humpty Dance” by Digital Underground!!

I hear this song and immediately want to hear Young MC - Bust A Move.

The funny things is. The ladies dancing in this video are now somebody’s grandmama. 😂

Okay...now it's time for Tribe Called Quest

Check out the other hit by Rob Base & EZ Rock: "JOY AND PAIN"

I'm reading all the comments and I think that all these people that love all these songs should get together and have a big party. Then all us old people can show all of you young people how people of all Races can get together and have a absolute blast, fun, no drama just dancing laughing and having a great time!

Gotta listen to Slick Rick “Childrens Story” and “Mona Lisa”

There was always one friend whose job it was to always do the “woo! Yass!” part.

I was 12 when this dropped! I’m 45, Everyone is South London has this blaring from their houses, cars etc... oh my god! This tunes rattles my DNA!

If you like this, check out Young MC- "Bust a Move"

I was in the army stationed in Germany when this song came out. My barracks were across from the NCO club and every Friday night this was played multiple times. It was in every club in town too - such fun party memories to this.

80's and 90's is prob the best decade for music with dance music techno, dnb, garage and rap

80's rap brought everyone together...LL Cool J "mamma gonna knock u out, Run DMC "Its Tricky", Naughty By Nature " OPP "and "Uptown Anthem", and so many more. Also check out The Beastie Boys...Shes Crafty, no sleep til Brooklyn, etc.! SIR Mix a lot "Baby Got Back" is also a good one and pretty funny!

God this takes me back to my 20's. I'm 64 now. Thanks for bringing this up. Many good times back then.

Old school...but timeless! For all of us who know this, 1:16 is all we have to hear to start the party!

The 80s good times!!!! Shout out to my generation for starting this hip hop journey! Generation X represent. You can't help but smile and rock with this classic 😎

We definitely had it going on back in da day with real music and beats!! Glad you guys enjoyed it!!

I was listening to this song in 1989 😂

This is when dancing was the thing and having a good time was a thing. That was it. No frontin - just vibing.

I am 60 and I was jamming to this in the early 90, I was in the club!😂

GUYS! You have to listen to Beatie Boys "Intergalactic" You would LOVE it!

I love this song. You can't sit still when it plays. It's just so fun

1987!!!! I'm back in high school, just turned 16. I'm 50 now, and this STILL rocks!

Black Sheep “This or That” Legendary song!!!

"Goin' Back 2 Cali" LL Cool J. damnnn I'm old.

"Skating Rink Memories"...and "Teen Clubs"...and this Song has a DANCE...LOVELY REACTION GUYS...🤣👍

Give Heavy D a listen, We Got Our Own Thang. Actually, anything by Heavy D.

Pump up the jam by Technotronic is where its at. Also Buffalo stance by Neneh Cherry. Don't miss out on these 2 even if you don't video it. Love your channel.

This song is from August 1988 Still rocking....👍💯💯

Oran "Juice" Jones. Walking in the Rain!!

Seeing kids that have never heard this makes me feel so old.

I'm 63 and it still makes me pop. Used to rock to this in the clubs. Yeah !!!

The best hip hop came outta the 80’s and 90’s.

For the first half of the 90s, knowing the lyrics to this song was pretty much a guarantee that you'd be making out at parties.

I was a Junior/Senior in High School when this came out. It was and still a jam!

This was a jam back in the day.

Jump Around by House of Pain is next then if you liked Rob Base

When I was a teenager I saw Rob Base in concert when he opened for DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince. And now I feel old as hell lol.

Joy and Pain extended version by Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock

These guys, Furious Five & Grandmaster Flash with their songs like "The Message" & "White Lines" and The Sugarhill Gang before then with their famous track "Rappers Delight" all paved the way for all rappers that came out after.

Oh and a reaction show on "The Show", Doug E. Fresh. How have your parents not shared this treasure with you two?

More old school to check out: DJ Kool Herc (credited with originating Hip Hop in the Bronx) “Let Me Clear My Throat” and Grandmaster Flash “The Message”

Naughty By Nature is a must. Start with guaranteed bangers “Feel Me Flow” and “OPP” and “Hip Hop Hooray”

Can you do a reaction show on "Me, Myself, and I" from De La Soul? You need to know what good music was like.

I wish I could take these two young cats to the 80’s. They’d have fun.

Compare this rap to today’s mumble rap, you will know the lyrics faster than the mumble rap guaranteed! It’s a Blessing to see two young brothers enjoying and reacting the same my generation did we first heard this jam.

FYI the sample in the chorus is by a James Brown protege named Lynn Collins. The song is called “It takes two”.

There's a LOT of old-school Hip-Hop songs that have stood the test of time quite well!

Was dancing in the clubs in the late 80s to this. Should take a listen to the Sugarhill Gang - "Rappers Delight". Basically the first rap group in late 70s to really make it big.

I love this song, it still rockin today and I’m 54. One of my favorite songs

This song was everything that summer. My 16 year old knows to watch out when this comes on the radio now. Cuz his mom about to sing ALL the words.

She's the pioneer for female rappers. Mc Lyte- Lyte as a rock Mc Lyte- Poor Georgie Mc Lyte- Paper thin

"I hope it's a banger." Yup, it sure is.

Now listen to Eric B and Rakim "paid in full". This era is full of straight up jams.

"Take it off the rack, if it's wack put it back." Lyrical perfection

I got chills, I haven't heard this in so long. Still slaps! And I remember all the words! 🙌

Love this please react to Free your mind by En Vogue!!!😊😊😊still relevant today

Every 40+ year old knows all the lyrics to this song. Classic.

Still wakes my soul up to this day!!!!!!

New recommendation: L.L. Cool J's "Rock the Bells" if you get a chance.

*Heavy D....WE GOT OUR OWN THANG. Now that’s a banger!!!

yup 1982 I grew up with this song luv it :-)

check out Kid N' Play - Ain't Gonna Hurt Nobody

BACK IN DAY THIS WAS JAM!!!! Lisa Lisa Rob Base Fat Boys Sky Etc....

"It was jammin back in the day!" Hilarious!!

Old School Jamz!!!! Us old folks still dance to this in "the club"

Man, they make me feel old! I'm 48 lol. This was my JAM and yes I know all the words!

Now y’all gotta pull up EPMD “You Gots To Chill”

Hey guys, I just found your channel about 3.5 hours ago and have been watching it since. I'm a 64 year old white guy and I'm truly enjoying watching you experience some of the music I was so lucky to have grown up with. My favorite was when you heard the Rolling Stones doing "Gimme Shelter". Awesome song and awesome reaction. I just subscribed to your channel. When I started watching earlier you guys had 227K subscribers and in just over 3 hours you've gotten 10K new ones since you're now at 237K. Congratulations. If you ever get the chance I'd love to get your reaction to a song by Jane Child called "Don't Wanna Fall in Love". I think you both would enjoy it. Also N'SYNC's "Tearin Up My Heart". Thanks.

Omgawd... we used to roller skate to this at the roller rink... good times♡♡

I have been a dj for 35 years now! I have to say, this Jam packed the floor in every Club I spun the steels of wheels! You know what! I love these guys! Bringing back da old skool!

If you like story telling rap, you got to listen to Slick Rick's Lottie Dottie.

Have ya'll listened to Eric B. and Rakim? I'd recommend "I ain't no joke" "microphone fiend" or "paid in full"

Y'all throwin out those hits from back in my days.... Love seeing reactions to older music. Y'all keep on twinning!!

Can’t believe I still remembered every word. Haha

This is a timeless classic... It coulda easily came out this year!!! Fun fact: the screaming in the back is James Brown's voice on a loop

We know every single word, this song the shit!! Was everything on the dance floor!!

How have you never heard this song? Man I'm old😂😂😂

Good GAWD, y'all. This track was the TRUTH when it came out. "I like the Whopper, F*** the Big Mac."

this song was one of the biggest hits in late 80s

This was the most revolutionary, most incredible song I’d ever heard when it was first released. Was such a fresh sound and such an immediate instant classic.

Lol you youngsters don’t even know. I remember this being dropped on radio for its first play 😂

It's good to see young kids today discovering great old school Hip-Hop.

funkmaster flash, original rap funk from the beginning, the 70s!
