Rob Base & D.J. E-Z Rock - Get On The Dance Floor b/w Creativity (Profile Records - 1988)


MC Rob Base & D.J. E-Z Rock stormed the streets and the charts by surprise in 1988 with It Takes Two and its infectious funky drummer rythm. Get On The Dancefloor was their second single and an excellent hip house try. The baseline and the keyboards lines do perfectly well the work and consequently Get On The Dancefloor packed New York floors upon its release. For this French edition, the record label took Creativity as a b-side and used the It takes Two album cover graphics to illustrate the 7" cover. This complete lack of creativity sums up perfectly well how hip hop was considered back then by European records label heads: a passing fad adressed to illeterates and certainly not a legitimate culture. Creativity is an instrumental breakbeat that shouts out to Rob Base & D.J. E-Z Rock label, Profile Records. Rob Base & E-Z Rock, despite the success, vanished then into obscurity
