"Knockin' da Boots" is a song by American R&B vocal group H-Town, released in March 1993, by Luke Records, as the debut single from their first album, Fever for da Flavor (1993). The song became one of the biggest R&B singles of 1993 according to the US Billboard charts, where it peaked at number three on the Hot 100 for seven weeks, and also topped the Hot R&B chart for four weeks,[1] helping win the band a Soul Train Music Award for Best R&B/Soul or Rap New Artist. The song was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America and sold over 1.1 million copies.[2][3] The song contains replayed elements of "Be Alright" by Zapp. The term "Knockin' da Boots" means to have "sexual intercourse" with one another. In a profile of distinguished lawyer Kristine A. Huskey, Marie Claire magazine reported that Huskey had appeared as a dancer in the song's music video while attending law school.[4]
