About Shake It Off
"Shake It Off" is a song by American singer Mariah Carey for her tenth studio album, The Emancipation of Mimi (2005). It was written by Carey along with Jermaine Dupri, Bryan-Michael Cox, and Johntá Austin, and produced by the former three. The song was serviced to radio on July 11, 2005, by Island and Mercury Records as the album's third single in the United States, while "Get Your Number" served as the album's third single elsewhere. Described by Dupri as "ghetto," the track is a R&B song that makes use of pop and hip hop influences and a simple, sparse production. Lyrically, the song follows Carey as she moves on from her relationship with an unfaithful lover, packing her things and breaking up with him over an answering machine.
