"Wiggle It" is a song by American music duo 2 in a Room, released in 1990 by Cutting and Charisma Records as the second single from their second album, Wiggle It (1990). It is written by George Morel and Rafael Vargas, and produced by Morel. The song became the act's biggest hit in the United States and abroad, peaking at number one in Canada, number three in the United Kingdom, and number 15 in the United States.
Alex Henderson from AllMusic commented, "Hardcore rappers may have dismissed Wiggle It's hit title song as commercial frivolity, but there's no denying just how infectious the house-influenced jam is."[2] Bill Coleman from Billboard magazine remarked that this "deep-baked hip-house sports a muscular bassline and well-phrased rhymes."[3] James Hamilton from Music Week described it as "jauntily lurching hip house".[1]
