"Here Comes the Hotstepper" by Ini Kamoze, (covered by The Hit Crew in-game) was featured on Just Dance 2 as a downloadable track but became unavailable for purchase following the shutdown of the Wii Shop Channel on January 30, 2019. The song remains playable on Just Dance: Summer Party, Just Dance Unlimited, Just Dance Now, and 舞力无限.

Appearance of the Dancer[]

Hotstep coach 1

Original[]

The dancer is a man with dark blue hair, who dresses up as a farmer. He wears a dark blue straw hat over his head and has a Fu Manchu mustache. He also wears a blue and orange-yellow checkered polo shirt, a pair of blue overalls with the right suspender strapped on, a pair of bright orange socks, and white and dark blue boots tied with bright orange laces. A bright orange handkerchief hangs in the back pocket of his overall. He has a light blue outline. His glove is colored orange, specifically gamboge.

Remake[]

In the remake, the excess neon in his outline is removed and his color gradient is slightly darker. Otherwise, the coach is the exact same.

Background[]

The background is styled as a farm. There is a barn, chickens, and some sheaves of hay. For almost the entirety of the routine, there is a Rabbid annoying the dancer. In the end, the front wall of the barn falls, revealing numerous Rabbids. In the remake, the screen fades to black at the end.

Gold Moves[]

There are 4 Gold Moves in this routine:

Gold Move 1: Swipe your right hand upwards from right to left, as if you were throwing something.
Gold Move 2: Swipe your right hand downwards as if you were trying to catch something.
Gold Move 3: Swing your right arm to the left.
Gold Move 4: Put your hands up with your thumbs up.

Trivia[]

General[]

  • Here Comes the Hotstepper is the third cover by The Hit Crew in the series.
  • The cover replaces the line "Murderer" with "Word ‘em up!".
  • In the Winter Wonderland video, in-game notifications, and the Nintendo Switch news notification, Ini Kamoze (the original artist) is mistakenly credited instead of The Hit Crew.
  • In Ubisoft Music’s "Just Dance Summer Playlist" on Spotify, the original version is featured instead of The Hit Crew’s cover, despite the latter being available on Spotify.[2]
  • The song samples Land Of 1000 Dances.

Routine[]

  • The Raving Rabbid is featured in this song to celebrate the Raving Rabbid games’ fifth anniversary.
    • This is the second routine with a Raving Rabbid’s cameo, after When I Grow Up.
  • The DLC used to be free along with Crazy Christmas for a short time but then went on to cost 300 Wii Points.[citation needed]
  • The coach’s avatar on Just Dance 2014 is unlocked upon reaching Level 100 on the World Dancefloor.
  • The menu icon of the song on Just Dance 2 did not originally include a Raving Rabbid upon its debut in the game. The Rabbid was added after the song was no longer free.
  • In Rabbids Land, the Rabbids’ dance moves are reused from this song when playing the jukebox mode. They can also be seen in the loading screen for that game.
  • In the Winter Wonderland trailer, the pictograms have default colors.
  • The Just Dance Unlimited cover uses the coach selection image instead of the album coach.
  • A placeholder menu banner can be found in the Just Dance Unlimited servers.[3]
  • In the Just Dance Now preview, the original pictograms are used instead of the new ones, and the pictogram bar is from Just Dance 2018 and 2019.
  • The routine was initially placed in the "All Songs S-Z" playlist on Just Dance Now.
    • This was fixed the day after its release.
