Hip hop music is a perfect companion for Zumba, the dance-fitness program that helps participants burn calories by moving to their favorite tunes. Be it Missy or Yeezy’s tunes, these lively tracks will surely get your blood pumping and your legs moving!
Zumba began by chance in the 1990s when fitness instructor Alberto “Beto” Perez misplaced his regular aerobics music for one of his classes he was teaching, so instead used salsa and merengue cassettes from his collection as improvised accompaniment instead.

Ice Ice Baby
Ice Ice Baby was an instant classic of hip hop music when it hit number one on the charts in 1990, becoming the first single by a white rapper to do so and popularizing hip hop to mainstream audiences. While some criticize its one-hit wonder status, others appreciate its significance for helping popularize hip hop culture more broadly. Notably memorable lyrics and catchy melody make Ice Ice Baby easy to remember and its cover by Backstreet Boys was popular enough that many still use it at events and weddings today.
Vanilla Ice’s success with “Vanilla Ice” made him a household name among young people and earned him widespread respect from industry insiders. Since then, he has embarked on an impressive entertainment career including musical projects and television shows as well as real estate development, motorcycle racing and hosting his own DIY home improvement show!
Vanilla Ice is often misunderstood as being black; in this instance, however, “VIP” refers to his status in society rather than race – yet another nod to his pre-rap career as a breakdancer with Vanilla Ice Posse! Additionally, this song pays a nod to Shay, who worked alongside Vanilla Ice on this record project.
Some have taken issue with Vanilla Ice’s song due to its use of sampling. Though once common in hip-hop music, sampling is now seen as controversial and Vanilla Ice was widely criticized for his appropriation of black culture – as he was seen using music, dance moves, and fashion invented by black artists in his performance.
This song originally served as the B-side to “Play That Funky Music,” but quickly rose in prominence when DJ played it on air. As a result, it became the first hip-hop song ever to reach #1 in US charts; and became an international phenomenon. Additionally, its music video featuring an iconic image of a naked man running through an urban area became famous worldwide.
Luis Guisao
Zumba has become an international phenomenon thanks to its diverse music. From Latin salsa and reggae to old-school hip hop and reggae, the variety of beats ensure that participants feel the rhythm. Workout sessions become dance parties rather than exercise sessions! Zumba’s easygoing music also makes it suitable for newcomers or casual fitness enthusiasts who appreciate a casual workout session.
“Ice Ice Baby” is an incredible example of how popular hip hop music can be transformed into an effective Zumba workout. First released as a hit single by Vanilla Ice in 1990, Zumba Fitness transformed it into a dance routine for instructors to use during classes; eventually leading to an infectious music video and workout session on YouTube that went viral.
Zumba provides more than just music; it also offers various dance styles like hip-hop. Hip-hop offers people looking to challenge themselves by learning complex moves the opportunity to discover complex movements like locking and popping – an engaging form of street dance which helps burn calories while strengthening muscles.
One of the most beloved songs for Zumba fitness classes worldwide is Luis Guisao’s “Fiesta Buena.” Although this song wasn’t originally created for Zumba Fitness classes, its catchy lyrics and irresistible beat will get everyone moving and sweating!
