Drake – Shut It Down Lyrics ft The Dream

[Drake]
These girls ain’t got nothing on you
uhh, say baby I had the mansion
but if you were a star you’d be the one I’m searching for
all the girls they got attention
but I just always feel like there in need of something you got
(?) is she pretty
heard that you’re a student working weekends in the city
trying to take you out girl, hope your not too busy
and if there’s nothing wrong, got this little song
for you to get ready to
put those fucking heels on and work it girl
let that mirror show you what you’re doing
put that fucking dress on and work it kind of (?)
like somebody’s taking pictures

[Chorus]
shut it down down down
you would shut it down down down
you’d be the baddest girl around round round
and they notice they notice
you would shut it down down down
you’d be the baddest girl around round round
and they notice they notice
you would shut it, hey oh
these girls ain’t got nothing on you nothing on you

What you need
I can be (I can be)
your everything
(who knew)
them other niggas
just wanna hit it but if they had it
wouldn’t know what to do with it
(and together)

[Drake & The Dream]
we shut it down down down
they know we shut it down down down
your the baddest girl around…

[The Dream]
(?)
you shut that motherfucker down down
ice cream conversations they all want the scoop
you shut that motherfucker down down down
oh yeah,
yes indeed, you shut it down down
Drizzy, The American Dream

You shut that shit down
(down down down)
you shut it down
you shut it down
you shut it down
you shut it down
you shut it, ohh

you looking good girl
go go go get ‘em girl,
go go go go hit ‘em girl
go go go go go go
you shut it down

Drake Teams Up With The Dream For “Shut It Down”

Drake’s long-awaited debut, “Thank Me Later,” was recently pushed from a fall release to early 2010. But one of the album’s producers, Harlem-based Omen, says the Toronto MC is ready to release first single, “Shut It Down” featuring The-Dream, in the coming weeks.

“We’re filming a video for it soon helmed by Hype Williams. The track will be serviced just a few weeks after,” Omen tells Billboard.

The song came about when Omen teamed up with Drake’s longtime musical collaborator, 40, and together they came up with the production. “I was working on some drum patterns and 40 had the melody going. 40 is very skilled and has a crazy ear for obscure sounds and chords,” says Omen. “It took us the whole night to come up with the track, but we finished it and played it for Drake the next day, who already had the song’s concept.”

The idea for the track, which Omen describes as a “Prince-like, powerful song,” is about “empowering females. Drake said he had a song idea called ‘Shut It Down’ aimed at club-going females. When they go out and they get dressed up and put their makeup on and get their hair done, they have the capacity to shut the club down,” Omen recalls.

The-Dream eventually got on the track; as of now, he has a verse and appears on the last two choruses and on the bridge.

But Omen’s working relationship with Drake started years before this track came into fruition. Omen, an up-and-coming producer then, met 40 in Toronto back in 2003 while working on Canadian artist Jellystone’s album. A few years later, during another visit to Canada, Omen was introduced to a new artist 40 was working with named Drake. “He told me he needed my insight on Drake’s direction,” says Omen. “I heard Drake, and immediately thought, ‘this kid is crazy!’”
