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."[1] Bill Coleman from Billboard remarked that this "deep-baked hip-house sports a muscular bassline and well-phrased rhymes."[2] James Hamilton from Music Week described it as "jauntily lurching hip house".[3]

Chart performance

The single reached the number-one position on the US Billboard Dance Club Play and 12-inch Singles Sales charts,[4][5] as well as number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1990.[6] It also reached number three in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Australia.[7][8][9] The single earned a gold certification in Australia and the US and a silver certification in the UK.[10][11][12]
