and three hours.[18] A scene in the music video where Jennie raps while sitting on a diamond-encrusted tank, referencing “Ddu-Du Ddu-Du”. The video references previous music videos released by Blackpink.[19][20] In the opening shot of the video, Lisa stands on a deck against a dark sky ("Playing with Fire") before taking the wheel for a group car ride, mirroring a scene from "Whistle" in which Rosé drove. The scene in "Ddu-Du Ddu-Du" of Jennie rapping while sitting on a military tank with pink shopping bags is also recreated. Lisa raps sitting among black bags full of pink cash and speakers ("Boombayah"). Jisoo protects herself from raining money with a pink umbrella ("Ddu-Du Ddu-Du"). Just as in "Whistle", Rosé sits on top of the Earth, except the globe in "Shut Down" is black and pink. In another scene, she drives a car alone ("Kill This Love"). In "Playing with Fire", Jennie plays with a match with orange flame in a white bathtub; in "Shut Down", she does the same in an onyx bathtub and with a pink flame. Lisa wields a sword with the word "Blackpink" written on it, and Rosé swings on a chandelier ("Ddu-Du Ddu-Du"). Jisoo trips and falls in front of paparazzi filming her every move in "Ddu-Du Ddu-Du" but confidently takes pictures of herself without the glaring eyes of the photographers in "Shut Down". During the chorus, the members dance in an alley lined with posters referencing the titles of their solo and group songs
"Shut Down" talks about Blackpink's success as a musical act. When the pop princesses pull up in a city, they take up so much attention, all other activity grinds to a halt and the city shuts down. The girls also employ a second meaning of the title phrase when they threaten to shut down their naysayers and haters around the world. Jennie starts off the confrontational hip-hop track with the battle cry: Blackpink in your area This is Blackpink's signature line that they use to start their songs. First employed on their 2016 debut single, "Boombayah," it has since become the group's most recognized intro. "When we say 'Blackpink in your area,'" Jennie said to Elle of their catch phrase, "we're literally saying we're in your area with good music, with good energy, we're here for you." The feisty song samples Italian composer and violinist Niccolò Paganini's "La Campanella." The third and final movement of his 1826 Violin Concerto No. 2 in B minor, Op. 7, it owes its "La Campanella" nickname to the little handbell that reinforces the tune metaphorically. YG Entertainment's in-house producer Teddy Park wrote "Shut Down" with Danny Chung (Blackpink's "Lovesick Girls" and "Pink Venom"), Vince (Blackpink's "Love To Hate Me," Lisa's "Money"), and the song's arranger, 24. YG Entertainment released "Shut Down" as the second single from Born Pink on September 16, 2022. According to the label, the album title "portrays Blackpink's confidence and self-esteem for being born different." In the glossy video we see the four girls strut their stuff with various visual references to scenes from the group's past clips. They include Lisa surrounded by speakers and black bags full of pink cash ("Boombayah"), Jennie on top of a crystal tank with pink shopping bags hanging by her ("Ddu-Du Ddu-Du"), and Rosé driving alone ("Kill This Love").
