The singer touches on being a hot topic for pop culture fans and seemingly referenced the open marriage controversy with the Smiths. His followers have been showing him love on social media as Alsina has highlighted a few positive reactions to "Shake The World," but without a doubt, those critics have also reared their ugly heads.

Quotable Lyrics

I started my label, then shake the world (Then the world shook)
'Cause goddamn it, that's right, I shake the world (Shake the world)
I heard it's some sh*t that's bound to go down when you got a billion dollars on the elevator
Well, of course some sh*t was bound to go down when you tangled up with the world's favorite (Ah-ooh)
