EZ Rock’s death was confirmed by Base, reported TMZ. His cause of death has not yet been revealed.

Born Rodney Bryce, the Harlem-native teamed up with Base in 1988 for “It Takes Two,” which went on to be a Top 40 hit and has been named by Rolling Stone as one of the 50 Greatest Hip-Hop Songs of All Time. Since it debuted in the 80s, “It Takes Two” has been sampled by a number of artists, including Snoop Dog. It’s also made its way onto a number of soundtracks – most recently 2009’s The Proposal, which starred Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds.

EZ Rock and Base also worked together on “DJ Interview” and “Joy and Pain,” which was also a chart hit.

Many in the hip-hop community have taken to Twitter to share their condolences in regard to EZ Rock’s passing, including rapper Biz Markie, DJ Red Alert and DJ Scratch.
