"Get Huh!"[1] (also simply "Get Huh"[2] and "Get Her"[3]) is a 1993 house song by The Ride Committee,[a] featuring vocals by Roxy.[b] It was written by Louie Guzman and Steven A. Jones[8] and produced by Guzman.[4] E-Legal Records issued the song on a 12-inch single in 1993,[9] with a remix by Junior Vasquez.[3] It reached number 40 on the UK Dance Singles Chart in September 1994.[5]

Composition

"Get Huh!" set a spoken-word monologue of snide insults delivered by Roxy over a house beat, in the genre of the "bitch track" or "drag disco" releases that emerged in New York in the early 1990s.[2][3] The track is built around "hysterically catty comments" such as "she's got really dreadful skin", "she's got Ethel Merman's chins",[2] and "I'll rip out her eyes and put them in the punchbowl!"[3]

Release

In a February 1993 Billboard roundup of new "drag disco" records, dance editor Larry Flick called "Get Her" "easily the best of the bunch" and reported that "several majors are sniffing around" the record for a deal.[3] Although bootleg copies had circulated ahead of the track's official release, the label had maintained interest in it.[10]

Critical reception

Flick named "Get Her" the fifth-best dance record of 1993 in Billboard's year-end critics' list,[11] and German magazine Spex included it among the top house tracks of the year.[12] In 2021, The Guardian's Alexis Petridis identified "Get Huh!" and "Walk for Me" by Tronco Traxx as part of "the fierce strain of 90s New York house".[1]
