The Cha-Cha Slide was also a very popular dance in the 90’s. I would did it at parties, weddings and even once at the circus.

Thank you for giving Digital Underground some props. They have never been given the love and respect they deserve.

It depends on the era to imo:
1. Early 90s-hip hop/rap, ice ice baby and you can't touch this
2. Mid 90s-grunge, nirvana and green day say it all
3. Late 90s-pop and boy bands

Can we all agree that we knew the Macarena would top the list? my hunches are never wrong

MC Hammer for "Can't touch me" all time favorite.

Nearly all of these dances come directly from African American/Hip Hop culture. My people so influential

[captainbryce]

With as many Fresh Prince references...how on Earth did the Carlton Dance NOT make this list?

As I watch this video all I hear and can visualize is that lady in the blue jogging suit.. "Now that's hip hop." LOL
The Bart Simpson/Creep is my go to!

The original Harlem Shake was one of my favorites to do growing up…the new “Harlem shake” would thoroughly piss me off

Running man is the goat of nineties dance moves and the electric slide

I went to Mexico in college for spring break. It was March 1994. The Macarena was played in every club, usually more than once a night. We learned the dance, and it was fun for a few days. But, by the end of the week, we had heard it enough and were over it. Over a year later, it blew up in the USA. I tried telling people that they would hate themselves for getting sucked into the craze. They didn’t believe me until about a month later.

Not me wondering why the Electric Slide got left out, only to discover that it dates from the 70s 😱 We were definitely still dancing that in the 80s/90s! Also, you know you're old when your kids learn the Macarena in gym class at school 😂

[KP-nxlo]

Anyone else feel old for not only knowing these dances but remembering when they first came out!

[vibewithshae]

Anyone who is reading this I pray that whatever you are consistently stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts and overthinking, the doubt exit your mind right now. May replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill in your life. 🙏

Macrena is my dance...!! Watta about the Vogue inspired by Madonna..??

[charristicks]

Don’t forget the Pee Wee Herman and the Spider!

[cmccarthy]

How you gonna show anybody other than The Fresh Prince doing the Alf? That's his signature move!

[cadeevans]

Loved mc hammer and milli vanilli dances
