The lyrics to Luke Bingham's song "Shut It Down" feature a collaboration with Krept and Konan. The first verse, rapped by Krept, talks about how he's drunk and faded but still able to impress women. He mentions how a girl opens up when he shuts down and that he has shots ready to load up. Krept also talks about how he can't sober up because of his current situation. He then brags about how he brings women home for the crew and compares himself to Ja Rule. Finally, he talks about a girl who had too much brandy and looked like Monica from the sitcom "Friends".
The second verse, rapped by Konan, talks about a girl named Grace who wants to be with him. He mentions how he's going to take her to the hills and get her out of her heels. Konan also mentions how she heard him on the cover of something and is now underneath his quilt. In short, the song is about how Luke Bingham "shuts down" every time he's around women and how he and his crew are taking over the game.
