Is “Shut Down” BLACKPINK’S Worst Edit? | Pro Editor Reaction

[@JordanOrme]

Here's a Simple Video Editor with AI tech: bit.ly/3KKu7rf

[@sanderssanderska3547]

Now you should see NCT 127 New Video :)

[@garretburrow]

The reason the song feels monotonous in relation to the editing(I think) is because of the time signature. This is the first time that I'm aware of that BLACKPINK has ever done a song that _wasn't_ in the typical "4 on the floor" time signature. For this song, it's actually in 6/8, not 4/4. That's why you can count it in groups of 6... "one two three four five six, one two three four five six." 6/8 is a type of waltz time. It has this rolling characteristic to it, like it's unending and eternal...like a locomotive chugging along.

Jordan is so kind for not criticizing much about this MV editing. He is not as excited as for other MVs he reacted to before.

[@cheekyboomboom8973]

I think it's cool that Pink Venom was released first, as if they knew what a lot of the reaction would be. A lot of the hate or criticism of Pink Venom was in comparison to their old stuff, either that it was too much like D4, KTL, and HYLT, or oppositely, because the chorus was an anti-drop it actually wasn't enough like the banger chorus' of D4, KTL, or HYLT. The hate went both ways, funnily enough. And this, almost in direct answer to that, is saying like it's lame to hate on us just by comparing us to our older stuff. They shut that down.

[@shinigamis_like_apples4797]

Oh, that could be it yeah. I was just thinking the opposite. I thought this would have been a great pre-release because it creates anticipation for that new sound they are talking about, but you're right. Pink venom is different compared to what blinks were used to and thats what the ‘‘keep talking, we shut you down'' is referring to. Now I realise, it was like a pre-emptative strike before delivering the ‘‘we are back/we've grown and we're better than ever'' message. It's a good marketing strategy too, now that I think about it. Blackpink basically rebranded themselves and their sound lmao 😂

[@dajab.7331]

oooooh that makes sense, mainly because when you listen to the album, all the songs that come after shut down doesn't sound like any other song of theirs. like, the only one that i think that has a vibe that is slightly similar to their older songs is ready to love, but that one also sounds completely different. i feel like shut down is them making a change of genre/music because even that song sounds NOTHING like what they've done before. this album is so well done, i love it

[@whatasillybilly]

That makes sense

[@elvillivle]

Lol I love Blackpink and made some of the criticisms cited above. It's not hate. Every work can be praised or criticized. Just because we thought it could be better doesn't mean we're hating on Blackpink. Shut Down joined my Spotify playlist as soon as I heard the violins, not a big fan of the MV though. Pink Venom does sound a lot like the other stuff mentioned, not the chorus, more like the bg sounds used, I'm kinda tired of hearing them. Shut down is refreshing to the ears.

[@cheekyboomboom8973]

@@elvillivle Sure, obviously it's fine to criticize -- I also said after my first few listens that I wasn't a fan of Pink Venom's chorus mostly due to the cadence/voice they use (it has since grown on me). But if your complaints are mostly in comparison to D4, KTL, or HYLT, that's less solid criticism and more about unfair personal wishes. Especially if as my original post stated, the complaints go both ways -- complain that Pink Venom is too much like D/K/H, but then also complain that the chorus isn't enough like them. When it gets into that territory, it starts to sound more like hate because... ... Comparisons are fine when it comes to personal taste -- everyone has their own fave songs and styles from BP and other artists. But it's far less fair to use as criticism. Just imagine a critic going "This song is bad because I wanted this part to sound exactly like D4 and this chorus to sound like HYLT, but I didn't want this verse to sound like KTL, and not for this bridge to sound like Pretty Savage, and this pre-chorus sounds new but I wanted it to be like Playing With Fire..." and so on and so on. For personal tastes that's fine, but that's not a decent criticism of music at all. Imagine you're the artist and that's the kinda stuff you hear after a new song, you'd 100% think of it as whiny/lame/silly hate because it's not actual criticism.

[@KatBlaque]

hahha. I also noticed the slight editing things. There really aren't any rules, but I agree that it could have been more satisfying. I think it's because they were trying to match the scenes that felt satisfying in their original videos exactly, but it's out of sequence and more referential. Those medium shots are more satisfying when aligned with the choreography.

[@buberrycrunch]

When you were talking about Jisoo (7:51) IDKY but I legit started to cry. I'm literally so proud of her. Jisoo was always the "least favorite member", people called her a visual hole, and etc. I'm literally so happy, on what she overcame. She's the queen Jisoo. She has such a pretty voice, her visuals no no joke, she's an incredible actress, she's honest, she's funny, and so much more. I'm so glad she's at the top now. Also I really like pink venom and this whole album! All songs are incredible. But guys, don't be disrespectful just because someone likes/dislikes a song you don't/do like. That's just stupid. Everyone as a different taste in music. If you don't want people to tell you your taste in music is bad, that you're lying when a song you like is good, or whatever. Then don't do it to other people. People can dislike/like songs. So let people do that. Stop thinking you have to have it your way.

[@karlamedina856]

Something extra I want to add is I find it very interesting how they chose to sample from Paganini’s la Campanella, now I normally dislike when modern producers use classical pieces for their music but I feel like this adds to the story of the MV even more. Paganini surpassed many great violinist in his time and even changed classical music due to his untraditional way of playing and performing, they said he even sold his soul to the devil due to his immense talent, so I feel like the producer knew that and most likely got inspiration from Paganini to make this song for black pink cause they to broke many records and in a way changed Modern pop music

[@zpt.denisse]

This comment needs to be pinned to bring more attention to the poetry of Shut Down through the references, including Paganini.

[@codexone2194]

I'm a classical violinist. I personally find the sample a bit repetitive because they essentially only use like 4 bars or sth. I can understand using a sample, but hey, at least it's getting represented?

So I have listened to their "Born Pink" album a few times and I must say that their English tracks just blew me away. Especially, "Typa Girl," "Hard to Love," and "The Happiest Girl". The lyrics are so much more personal and relatable, rather than fillers like Ra-ta-ta-ta. Maybe due to their global success, the group seems a bit more distant to me, but with this album I am in love with BP all over again.

[@randomrandom7963]

[@TTTDianne]

I think that this video was also very badass of them because it’s like they were taking a jab at all the haters. A lot of people have been criticizing their music, because each big release have been fairly similar, and it’s true. Their formula/template works and they’ve produced major bops (ddu du ddu du, kill this love, how you like that, and now pink venom). However, many people have been wanting them to do something new. Hence, they gave us shut down. What’s ironic is that even though it’s a completely new vibe/flow or whatever, they still made references to their old music videos by recreating iconic scene. So basically, you’re getting something new, but something old too. They’re giving people what they want, but not completely giving them what they want. Almost like they’re taunting/mocking/teasing/playing with you, and I honestly love it. But I also think that this music video is a good segue to introducing new music to their fans. Just like what Jordan said “say goodbye to the past and welcome in a new era.”

[@maria_2350]

I don't know if you noticed but every reference is a little bit updated . The tank has lights. The track from boombaya has black and pink cargo... Rose is sitting on a black and pink earth. Jisso's rain in ddd is now money. Jennie's tub is black but she sits on it too which gives the scene a lot more confidence. The platform from playing with fire, it's raining and Lisa is dancing on it and contrast of her just looking out and the platform being on fire. And the katana she closes it whereas in ddd she was opening it up. You noticed jisso being more confident is the selfie scene... Oh and the scene where Rose and jisso are in a Lamborghini is a level up from their scene in as if it's your last car. Also! Them being in a car while the boombaya intro is playing on the walls, they were on bikes before BUT NOW they are is this big car all together. Idk maybe I'm thinking too much into it but yeah...

[@tiagomateus1845]

2:04 istg that part of closing the garage's door is so satisfying to me ahhhhhh

[@holasoyyo1848]

8:12 here is As if it's you last

[@MegaLuckyLeafy]

I haven’t watched all your videos for awhile but coming back and seeing your amazing reaction and the dance therapy which helped me whilst I have a bad cough I laughed without coughing in a good way thank you!

[@LostWillow8]

I've been waiting for this reaction!!

[@MagnitudeReviews]

The set with all of the posters with references basically every single title track and b-side the group has ever released either together, but also as a solo artist. I couldn't find everything there, but it's almost everything they've ever produced.

[@lovelala7654]

That’s why I like your videos! I notice those little things, but I know absolutely nothing about editing. Then I see your videos, and it all makes sense to me, and you really make it fun to watch.

[@nirabhasa.]

Blackpink never disappoints us!

[@leyyley3463]

The group is making the ideal comeback at this time. The team put forth a lot of effort. They have developed and excelled. The designation of "World's Biggest Girl Group" is well deserved by them. Please respect the other members, even if you don't like them. We love it. You have no right to harm those Blackpink's members love.

[@fatmakhan847]

Actually the real meaning is they are shutting down their old selfs... And just being themselves even though if they get hate for what they are doing... They are they... No one can compete BLACKPINK!

[@elina2463]

This reaction was fire and i think soon you'll be on a professional level of dancing thanks to your dance therapies!🔥🔥🔥

[@AwesomeBoysJPTV]

I think the meaning of the Music Video is they are close to "Shut Down" Blackpink, considering it's their last year of contract. And with all the controversies about YG, and maybe pursuing their solo careers. Maybe it's the end of an era, a "Shut Down"

[@BibbleUniverse]

It makes sense. They have only 11 months left of their contract so I think YG would give Jisoo a solo comeback. And that's it.

[@ye0nerve]

Thank you. I really thought the meaning of this mv was something like they are disbanding. This really changed my perspective of that.

[@neroneverjt]

i really agree with your opnions about this Mv, i was saw alot of reaction and i really love your reaction about the hints in BP Shut Down MV🎉

[@cats_97]

Yeah finally you drop it 😍

[@roselutions]

always love how you discover the meaning of every scene that i cant see just by my eyes!

[@jussandherliliesofthevalley]

This is the only reaction video channel I enjoyed, and also I'm learning something about editing! Thank you Jordan!

[@lavuzeez]

YASSSS I WAITED FOR YOUR REACTION ❤❤

[@aaishafxll]

SAME

[@baekhyunee04]

This is gonna stay in my faves for a very long time 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@azureinferno9546]

10:20 we really need that dance therapy as of this moment, thank you 🤣🤣

[@cocozy852]

To be honest, your content is very satisfying. Always describe every smallest to greatest point in the MV, that's very good, bro!

[@alhafidz6655]

the most i really waiting for, from this channel is the dance theraphy, that's so freaking funny but in the same time very very satisfying

[@ธนกฤตแสนรัตนวงษ์]

Queen Lisa is beyond perfection her powerful and charismatic, her vocals, her swag and her beautiful fashion looks. Amazing wow 😁

[@itsjoshuamusic]

LOVE this interpretation! If this means we're getting more MVs for this era, I'm in

[@eduardommqs]

In 9:19 references As If It's Your Last.

[@doreensarco1734]

I love how you put in the reference to their previous videos when my head tries to put them all together but failed. Thanks man.

[@AshleyXiao]

Love seeing you break down the videos, especially BTS and Blackpink. You make me see things from different angles and perspectives.

[@graceful1537]

They used props from older MVs in this one, and your analyzations of those other music videos express the message of how everyone expects the group to be perfect, controlling their moves. I think they are now trying to escape from their limits and want to tell us to 'shut down' the negative feedback. The garage thing closing or 'shutting down' is also representing that.

[@laura777selena]

Also I realized that even Jisso or Rose are singing their parts, both appear on the scene meanwhile Jennie and Lisa are alone. Even if I enjoy this song and MV, it's obvious how they treat each one, and THAT is not fault of the members. Definitely, that is gonna cause controverse. Great video!

[@skii9404]

And is it just me or Rosé and Jisoo didn't pull down the shutter like jennie and Lisa 🤔

[@mynameisstolen]

@@skii9404 yeah, pretty obvious that they didn’t.

[@AwkwardAvii]

@@mynameisstolen why didnt they do that tho?

[@AwkwardAvii]

@PING Interesting

[@swapnagupta370]

In pink venom, we had a jenlisa scene, so I don't think this was malicious

[@md_shareef_69]

You missed a Shake effect, Rose fulling her hands to down 06:12

[@sydney6946]

love you jordan ! thank you for bringing joy in our lives :)

[@shifazainal]

I love your explanation abt what this mv is all about! At first I thought they just using references bcos well, they love doing it haha. But actually there's a meaning behind it all 😍
