Production and release

"Shut Up and Drive" was produced by Carl Sturken and Evan Rogers, and its composition is credited to Sturken and Rogers as well as the members of New Order (Bernard Sumner, Peter Hook, Stephen Morris and Gillian Gilbert), whose 1983 song "Blue Monday" forms a partial basis for the song. [1] Al Hemberger recorded the song at Sunwatch in Saint James, Barbados and The Loft Recording Studios in Bronxville, New York. Hemberger also served as a mixing engineer and mixed "Shut Up and Drive" at The Loft Recording Studios, together with mixing assistant Roy Matthews. Sturken provided all of the instrumentation while Rihanna and Rogers sang the background vocals. The production manager of the song was Rob Heselden with Christie Moran serving as a production assistant. [2] "Shut Up and Drive" was released as the second single from the album, following the worldwide chart-topper "Umbrella" (2007). [3] The song premiered on Tuesday, May 22, 2007, on Rihanna's official website. [3] It was originally scheduled to be released to contemporary hit radio in the United States on June 5, 2007. [4] However, it was postponed to the next week. It was also sent to rhythmic contemporary radio on June 19, 2007. [5] The single was later released as a CD single on August 27, 2007, in the UK. [6]

"Shut Up and Drive" is a new wave song [8] that incorporates influences of the 1970s and 1980s musical styles. [7] It interpolates New Order's 1983 single "Blue Monday". [7] The song contains an upbeat opening sequence with a heavy guitar riff. [7] Tom Breihan from Pitchfork Media wrote that the song "begins with über-processed new wave guitars that sort of sound like the Cars". [9] The song's sheet music (which was published at Musicnotes.com by Sony/ATV Music Publishing) shows that "Shut Up and Drive" is written in the key of E major in common time with a moderately fast groove. [10] Rihanna's vocal range spans from the low note of F♯3 to the high note of B4 and the song follows a chord progression of E–B–C♯–F♯–B–C♯. [10] Lyrically, "Shut Up and Drive", as the title suggests, is about Rihanna looking for a "driver", having nothing to do with the cars' performance described being thinly veiled metaphors for her and the driver as for a lover capable to handle them. [11] The lyrics also contain multiple references to various cars and car parts, including 'class like a '57 Cadillac', all about her own attributes. [12]

Critical reception

"Shut Up and Drive" received mixed reviews from contemporary music critics. Bill Lamb from About.com commented that there are better songs on Good Girl Gone Bad, but "Shut Up and Drive" captures "the spirit of summer just as well as Rihanna's first hit 'Pon de Replay'". [13] Lamb further continued, "The lyrics are pure fluff, and the vocals have the now familiar thin and reedy quality common to many of Rihanna's efforts. However, like any successful sports car, the look, feel, and speed of 'Shut Up and Drive' pull you in despite the model's shortcomings." [13] Quentin B. Huff from PopMatters wrote that "Shut Up and Drive" is a sassier version of Aretha Franklin's "Freeway of Love" and Michael Jackson's "Speed Demon". [12] He also stated that the song would have fit comfortably on Gwen Stefani's first album. [12] Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine found that the song did not live up to its campy title, [14] while Rodney Dugue from The Village Voice described it as simultaneously "goofy and sexually daring". [15] Andy Kellman from AllMusic also referred to it as "a sleek, forthcoming proposition...as undeniable and rocking as Sugababes' 2002 UK smash 'Freak Like Me'". [7] "Shut Up and Drive" won Most Popular R&B Song at the People's Choice Music Awards. [16]

Chart performance

"Shut Up and Drive" debuted at number 88 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and peaked at number 15 several weeks later, failing to match the success of Rihanna's previous single "Umbrella". [17] The song reached number one on the US Dance Club Songs, becoming Rihanna's sixth number-one song on that chart. [18] "Shut Up and Drive" peaked at number 11 on the US Billboard Pop Songs and became Rihanna's seventh top 20 single on that chart. [19] The song was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipment of over 1,000,000 copies. [20] "Shut Up and Drive" reached the top 10 on the Canadian Hot 100, peaking at number six. [21] "Shut Up and Drive" debuted on the UK Singles Chart on July 28, 2007, at number 65. After six weeks, the song peaked at number five and became Rihanna's fifth UK top 10 single. It stayed on the UK Singles Chart for 31 weeks, becoming her sixth longest charting song there. "Shut Up and Drive" has sold more than 230,000 copies in the UK. [22]

In mainland Europe, the song achieved moderate success. It peaked in the top 10 in eight other countries including Hungary, the Republic of Ireland, Germany and Italy. In Switzerland and Sweden, the song reached number 14 and number 31, respectively.
