The hip hop artist known as Rob Base was born Robert Ginyard in 1967. Base rose to prominence as one half of a duo, performing alongside DJ E-Z Rock in the the late 1980’s. Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock met in Harlem, New York, in the 1980’s. The duo first hit the scene with the song “DJ Interview,” an independent release which garnered the act a recording contract with Profile Records.
After signing with Profile, Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock released the major label debut “It Takes Two,” which also became their breakthrough hit, reaching multi-platinum status and rising into the top five on the dance charts. The album of the same name also spawned the hits “Joy and Pain” and “Get On the Dance Floor,” the latter of which rose to the number one spot on the dance charts and became an iconic single for the 1980’s.
Unfortunately, the duo’s success was short lived, and the group disbanded in 1989, leaving Rob Base to launch a solo career. Base released his debut album The Incredible Base in 1989, and although it did not fare quite as well as It Takes Two, it did rise into the dance charts and spawned the single “Turn It Out (Go Base.”
Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock reunited briefly in the early 1990’s for the release of the album Break of Dawn, but the album was only moderately successful. Since the untimely passing of DJ E-Z Rock in 2014, Rob Base has continued to perform occasionally, often for private and corporate parties.
