Lirik lagu tersebut menyiratkan peningkatan kepercayaan diri anggota BLACKPINK terhadap karakter dan warna musik yang mereka tunjukkan.
Sejak awal lagu "Shut Down", BLACKPINK langsung menunjukkan karakter dan warna musik yang unik untuk bisa menandai eranya mereka saat itu, seperti dengan sampel melodi biola populer bertajuk "La Campanella" karya komposer Italia Niccolò Paganini tahun 1826.
Kemudian di awal lagu "Shut Down" pun terdapat seruan khas, "Blackpink in your area" yang ditujukan untuk mengajak siapapun mau bergabung dan menyimak karya mereka. Seruan itu pertama kali terdapat pada lagu debut BLACKPINK "Boombayah" yang dirilis tahun 2016.
Produser internal YG Entertainment, Teddy Park, menulis lagu "Shut Down" bersama Danny Chung, Lee Junseok alias Vince, dan Jeong Hun-seo alias 24.
