The song debuted at Number One on Spotify’s global top songs chart and amassed more than 7.9million streams within the first 24 hours. On YouTube, the official music video reached 100million views faster than any video by a female group in history, with 90.4million views counted within the first 24 hours.

Earlier today (September 7) the band announced the title of their next single, ‘Shut Down’, along with sharing a poster for the new song.

In a statement to South Korean outlet Yonhap News Agency published shortly after the announcement was made, YG Entertainment described ‘Shut Down’ as “a title that is intuitive and creates a strange tension”.

“BLACKPINK will once again captivate music fans around the world with [their] unique charisma and girl-crush charm,” the statement read.

This week the band also shared details of their 2022 European and North American tour including two UK dates.
