Reel 2 Real was a house music duo with reggae influences that scored seven Top 10 hits on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in the nineties. The act's core member is producer and DJ Erick Morillo from New York City, who spent a portion of his childhood living in Colombia. The first release as Reel 2 Real was The New Anthem which spent a week at #1 in 1992. Although it peaked at #8 on the dance chart, Reel 2 Real is best known for the dancehall reggae-influenced house track I Like to Move It, which featured Trinidad and Tobago native and toaster Mark Quashie, also known as the Mad Stuntman. The song was an international smash and crossed over to the Hot 100 in 1994, peaking at #89. It was the most successful in the United Kingdom, where it peaked at #2 on the singles chart and in The Netherlands peaking at #1. The song would later be used in DreamWorks' CGI animated film Madagascar (2005), covered by comedian Sacha Baron Cohen bu
