Think break

It comes from the 1972 song "Think (About It)" by the American soul singer Lyn Collins, written and produced by James Brown.

The drum break was performed by John "Jabo" Starks.

[4] While "Females" was a minor hit in the UK, the break did not receive major airplay and attention until the following year, when it was used as the backing loop for the 1988 song "It Takes Two" by MC Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock.

[5] The song, which is almost entirely composed of sampled parts from "Think (About It)", became a platinum-selling hit.

[1] It became almost ubiquitous in dance and hip hop records during the late 1980s and early 1990s and continues to see use.
