“It Takes Two” artist dies of cancer at 59

I was in eighth grade when the song came out, I remember it was all I ever heard at house parties, and school dances

Arguably one of the most recognizable songs of all time

Here is the song for those of you who have been living under a rock

I would have sworn the song itself was 59 years old.

The part of getting older that sucks is when badass music folks, athletes, and actors that were awesome to watch start passing away

Damn... back when rap was fun, and not about killing cops, dealing drugs and dropping n-bombs left and right

He wasn’t internationally known, but he was known to rock the microphone.

A dance club in Myrtle Beach played this all the time with the DJ dancing along with it
Circa 1989.

Oh, N.W.O and two live crew says hi. But I was more of a bestie boys fan. Was in highschool during all this. And nobody since had more vulger rap than two live crew.

Although not internationally known, he was certainly known to rock the microphone.

When it came on in clubs I was in it was all about singing along word for word. If a hot girl wanted to dance it was “I guess”.

Ladies loved him girls adored him

I mean even the ones that never saw him

They liked the way that he rhymed at the show

The reason why?

He didn’t know.
