"Stand Up" was a 2003 hit single for Ludacris featuring Shawnna, taken from his fourth album Chicken & Beer. It was produced by Kanye West.
The chorus consists of three repetitions of Ludacris rapping "When I move you move!" and Shawnna responding "Just like that?". After three repetitions, Ludacris says "Hell yeah! Hey, DJ bring that back!" Then Shawnna says "When I move you move!" and Ludacris says "Just like that?" and they trade parts of the chorus.
Kanye West has stated that he wrote the first two lines of Ludacris' first verse. (How you ain't gon' FUCK! Bitch I'm me! I'm the GOD DAMN reason you in VIP)
A remix version has also been recorded. Ludacris' third verse was removed and replaced with a verse from Kanye West. It appeared on the Akademiks: JeaniusLevelMusikKanye West Vol. 2 mixtape. It is also available on the internet.
It topped the Billboard Hot 100 for the week of December 6, 2003.
Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine covered this as a Lounge style version on his 2004 album "I'd Like a Virgin".
Ludacris also made a remix of the song for the Atlanta Falcons. This is Ludacris's first #1 single.
