shawna feat. ludacris Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maannn, these bitches is awfully nasty
And these bitches keep walking past me
Either way, I'm a pimp for today
Put your bootie in the way and shake that shit!
(Now these niggaz is bout they bank)
(And these niggaz keep buying dranks)
(Lips creep from my body on your lips)
[Verse 1 - Shawnna]
S-H-A to the W double N-A
Real bitch don't play
Your eyes can't hide what your lips won't say
You're acting like the Dukes of the Fifth won't spray
It's okay, they gon learn
Chi's most wanted bitch wait your turn!
Sac full of yum I'm a make that burn
why'all can't smoke none anyway
Wild ones, walk wit a bitch through wild slums
Trying to figure out if they're scared of the hips or the chips
Or they really can't talk to a bitch wit wild guns
No games, hat to the side wit low frame
Now I came in this industry killin em
Now they all feeling me, sipping on Henny wit an O and a gram!
[Chorus]
[Verse 2 - Shawnna]
see-H-I to the see-A, G-O
If you ain't been, don't go
My city's so fast, you react so slow
Your heart might stop and your blood won't flow
(That ain't right) I stomp through the hood
Wit a grand on my feet like that ain't tight
Diamonds on my neck like that ain't bright
I come through and shut down the Saturday Night!
(Hell yeah) You can kiss that and
(Feel there) bring it right back
Don't mess wit the frame if you don't know a thing
Six years in the game, I'm still here
Hold up! They mad cause the streets is sold up!
I'm back on my feet, so watch for the cops, we'll never stop
Just rep for ya block and throw it up!
[Chorus]
[Verse 3 - Shawnna]
M-I-D to the W-E-S-T
Better yet that's me
Most of why'all chicks gotta impress me
You say you got skills, put 'em up let's see
Show and prove, I hate to really see
What why'all goin through, put on any beat
We could spit it in the street
From the West to the East, or South to the house
Just showing love, go home
The body on the flo' is so grown
What cha gon' do, when you call to ya label
And ya gotta shed a tear, cause you hear ya career's
Been post-poned, back up
Smart mouth bitches, get slapped up
Take it to the trap, get clapped up
Put it in ya brain that the female game, been wrapped up
[Chorus x2]
[Outro - Shawnna]
Shorty said, shorty said
Shorty said, shorty said
Wait a minute, hold up
Wait a minute, hold up
Hold up, wait a minute
Hold up, now wait a minute
Shorty said, shorty said
Shorty said, shorty said
The song "Shake that Shit" by Shawna featuring Ludacris presents a typical representation of the hip-hop genre, emphasizing in themes like self-confidence, sexuality, and materialism. The chorus contains explicit language and sexual references, with Ludacris and Shawna singing about the promiscuous women walking past them, but they still want to use their body to shake and seduce them. The general message is that they are pimps, in control of the situation, and the women need to comply with their wishes.
In the first verse, Shawna presents herself as a confident and self-assured woman. She plays with words, boasting her skills and warning her enemies. She also talks about her experience and success as a rapper, something that gives her more power in the industry. In the second verse, she talks more about her hometown, Chicago, and how fast and dangerous it can be. She highlights her luxury tastes, like expensive sneakers and diamonds, and how she dominates the nightlife scene. The third verse is more aggressive, where Shawna challenges other female rappers to match her level of skill, saying that she has won the game. Overall, the song represents a masculine view of the world, where women are mere objects for male satisfaction and dominance.

You can't handle smoking weed like me
Wild ones, walk wit a bitch through wild slums
Rebels come with me into the ghetto
Trying to figure out if they're scared of the hips or the chips
They're unsure if they're intimidated by my curves or my power
No games, hat to the side wit low frame
I'm serious and dressed stylishly

Now everyone likes me, drinking Hennessy with a blunt

If you ain't been, don't go
Don't come to Chicago if you're not from here
My city's so fast, you react so slow
Things move quickly here, so you have to keep up
Your heart might stop and your blood won't flow
Chicago is dangerous, you might die
(That ain't right) I stomp through the hood
I walk through the ghetto with confidence
Wit a grand on my feet like that ain't tight
I'm wearing expensive shoes like it's nothing
Diamonds on my neck like that ain't bright
I'm wearing diamonds on my neck like it's normal
I come through and shut down the Saturday Night!
I'm so cool that I can make everyone stop and pay attention
(Hell yeah) You can kiss that and
You can forget about that

Don't mess with me if you're not prepared
Six years in the game, I'm still here
I've been successful in this industry for six years
Hold up! They mad cause the streets is sold up!
They're angry because I'm the queen of the streets
I'm back on my feet, so watch for the cops, we'll never stop
I'm back on top and I'll never be stopped by the police
Just rep for ya block and throw it up!
Represent your neighborhood and show your pride
M-I-D to the W-E-S-T
I'm from the Midwest
Better yet that's me
I'm the best from the Midwest
Most of why'all chicks gotta impress me
You other women need to impress me
You say you got skills, put 'em up let's see
If you think you're good, show me what you've got
Show and prove, I hate to really see
I'm serious about this and will be disappointed if you can't back it up
What why'all goin through, put on any beat
Whatever you're dealing with, make music about it
We could spit it in the street
We can perform in public
From the West to the East, or South to the house
We can perform anywhere
Just showing love, go home
We're performing out of love, not for profit
The body on the flo' is so grown
The dancing is very sexual
What cha gon' do, when you call to ya label
What will you do when you contact your record label
And ya gotta shed a tear, cause you hear ya career's
And you might cry when you hear your career is
Been post-poned, back up
Delayed, retreat
Smart mouth bitches, get slapped up
Rude women will be punished
Take it to the trap, get clapped up
Go to the ghetto and get shot
Put it in ya brain that the female game, been wrapped up
Understand that women have taken over the game
Shorty said, shorty said
Someone said something
Wait a minute, hold up
Wait a second
Hold up, wait a minute
Hold on
Hold up, now wait a minute
Wait a second
