AccuRadio Song Of The Day-2 In A Room

Artist:2 In A Room
Song:Wiggle It
Album:Club Mix's Biggest Jams Vol. 1





Wiggle It was a top 20 hit and it topped the dance charts in 1990. It was the only big hit for 2 In A Room. Some of their other songs charted so they are not a one hit wonder. But Wiggle it is the only song most will remember. They were from New York City. And I guess the group name describes them perfectly. Rafael "Dose" Vargas is a rapper. Roger "Rog Nice" Pauletta is a remix guy. The third partner was Cutting Records owner Aldo Marin. Vargas released a single in 1988 as Dose Material. He wrote it and Marin and Pauletta produced it. Cutting released a 1989 CD as 2 In A Room called The Album Vol. 1. Vargas and Pauletta only appeared on one song. But that song Do What You Want was a top ten dance hit. So Marin let them record a whole album as 2 In A Room. Vargas wrote and produced most of the album and he did all the rapping. Pauletta and Marin produced. Wiggle It was the first single. It reached #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 and it topped the dance charts. When the record started to break, Marin sold the album to Charisma Records so it would get national distribution. The song had a great hook and that's what made it memorable. Vargas wrote it with George Morel who would later have success with a series of singles called Morel's Grooves. 2 In A Room would release a CD in 1995 but it was unsuccessful. Vargas produced that album minus Pauletta. Pauletta returned to remixing. Vargas has been in some other groups he has never reached the heights of Wiggle It. You can get Wiggle It on this various artists budget comp. Here's the video for Wiggle It by 2 In A Room.
