So I have spent actual hours going through every sample CD and other sources trying to find the crash cymbal used on beat one of the bar - its from Tone Loc - Funky Cold Media from 1989.
Because it was made in 1989 the crash cym is most likely a sample or a drum machine and I have gone through the usual like the TR 909 and 808 but you gng may hear something I could not.
I cant find it so I thought if anyone could it would be you guys n gals!
In the audio sample the first bar is from the song and the second bar I have removed the guitar as best I could in Spectralayers...

I have just found that I have the CD Single and it has a "Beats" track where the Crash Cymbal can be heard clearly.... It is certainly from a Drum Machine.

Trying to find this specific Crash Cymbal?

It sounds incredibly pitched up. So maybe take another crash that is similar and pitch it up. It also sounds more like a ride cymbal rather than a crash to me. Maybe try layering a ride cymbal with a very quiet crash and adding pitch/eq till you're satisfied

Can't say for sure but it sounds like a medium size cymbal sampled and effects added. Probably 20 inch to 26 inch size cymbal recorded.
