"'Wiggle It'" is a song by American music duo 2 in a Room, released as their second single from their second album, 'Wiggle It' (1990). It is to date the act's biggest hit in the United States and abroad, peaking at number three in Australia, Ireland and the United Kingdom as well as number 15 in the United States.

Critical reception



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." Bill Coleman from 'Billboard' stated that this "deep-baked hip-house sports a muscular bassline and well-phrased rhymes."

Chart performance



The single reached the number-one position on the US 'Billboard' Dance Club Play chart and number 15 on the 'Billboard' Hot 100 in 1990. It also reached number three in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Australia. The single earned a gold certification in Australia and the US and a silver certification in the UK.
