"'Move Shake Drop'" is a song by American disc jockey DJ Laz, released as the first single from his 2008 studio album 'Category 6'. It featured vocals from fellow Americans Flo Rida, Casely and Pitbull. The backing track was composed by production duo the Diaz Brothers, who helped to write the song alongside DJ Laz and Pitbull.

Composition



The song samples the synth hook of Benny Benassi's track "Satisfaction", used as the main basis for the song.[http://www.beatking.com/forums/blog/beatfactory/index.php?showentry=248 BeatKing.com] Following some disputes, another version with a similar but different melody in the hook was also produced.
