<p>We are celebrating her infectious song &#8220;Shaken.&#8221; It&#8217;s quite obvious to the ears that LP&#8217;s song &#8220;Shaken&#8221; is a hit from the first line of the first verse. The song is a true heartbreak anthem that can be easily danced to. It&#8217;s filled with extreme emotion in both the music and the compelling vocal delivery. It serves as a release for the artist and really showcases the power that heartbreak has on songwriting. The emotions are exploding in a tremendous way through the microphone. The breakdown of the song shows the true talent that LP possesses vocally allowing the listener to appreciate her artistry.</p>
