There is a 12/4 (swingy, but really uses triplets, so not really a shuffle) track by DJ Kid and/or MC Love on Skyywalker records from Florida. I think it is called "Rockin Robin" and it is very 50's pop sounding in a silly way. The rapper sounds like he is 15 or something. Seems like it is from '91 or so. solenoid
