Is this the quality vs quantity Blinks harp upon?

Approved the thread. -
Black pink were never know for artistic or meaningful music, the fans will be fine

"Eight song is probably quite enough"
Exactly, why need more songs when only 8 can show how mediocre your group can be
"Bring the rum pum pum noise and flash"
There Teddy should copy those new onomatopoeia and blend them into another 2ne1 reject.
New title track incoming in 2 years lol
The reviews understood BP music very well, it seems...

There’s a review by Time Magazine that kind of drags the group as well

personality, expression, and style. Each new musical release offers greater insight, newer stories, more dramatic highs and lows. Pitted against those expectations, Born Pink falls flat.
But what if evolution isn’t the point? On the back of less than three dozen songs, Blackpink has risen to become style icons and superstars, the most popular girl group in the world. Why, some might argue, would they change what they’re doing?
Still, I found myself listening to the album thinking, “After so much time, how do they still sound the same?” Lisa, Jisoo, Jennie, and Rosé have traveled the world and have surely experienced their share of pain, loss, joy, and melancholy. It’s hard to believe that things wouldn’t have shifted inside them, that new love wouldn’t have bloomed in their hearts, that challenging thoughts wouldn’t have troubled their minds. They don’t owe us anything, but they do have their own stories to tell. Blackpink may have been born pink, but the world is still waiting to hear all the new colors they’ve grown into.

Tbh BP music sounds different because it’s compared to other ggs promoting so people go wow this group is so unique and different. But if actually listen to the songs, they’re mostly kinda boring and generic.
People say groups like Aespa and Nct prioritize noise music but BP is just as guilty if not more. Wtf was PV ending Ratata. Listening to a chorus and it’s very clear BP don’t even sing much, it’s mostly instrumental or if they are it’s extremely simple borderline talking. PV was literally talking and now shut down is slightly faster talking. Their lives are FULLY carried by their stage sets (backing dancers, lighting etc) because if you leave them alone to do their songs it will be very boring.
Lyrically it’s nothing groundbreaking, it’s normal “we are the best” type lyrics we’ve seen hundreds of times in Kpop. 2NE1 was famous for it and did it better.
Honestly it’s good it’s only 8 songs, couldn’t take anymore of the horrible music

Hahah bp antis are so mad and pathetic. Cute how anons is yall safe place since in the real world bp are smashing.

This review was actually good why is it being lumped with others. They made good points which would fall true for a lot of k-pop groups.

The cuter part is that while they may be "smashing" all their success and you're still a person who has no identity other then blink lmao Get a life.

The album was just decent. No growth , no maturity though. They sound like 15 year olds bragging to the other girls in the school yard.
They are not like the other girls.
I am sure these women in their mid 20s will have more things to sing about but the concept is above all. And this will be one of the reasons they will decline.
Their fans are growing but they are staying stagnant.

I’m glad someone mentioned the fake patois. It’s so offensive Jennie does this — is she trying to be Rihanna?
I’ve literally been complaining about the accent since the song first dropped. The second I heard it the song was ruined. maybe bc I’m Caribbean, but it was 10x more cringy for me to hear a full Korea person trying to imitate our accent just for a track where they are already imitating black culture for profit. It’s already so annoying when ppl try to copy Jamaican accents and think it sounds good when to natives it just sounds tacky af. But since she was trying to copy Rihanna I would say it was more like a Barbados accent.
-
What Jamaican accent? What they seem to be referring to is Jennie's first rap in Pink Venom. That's literally her own Korean accent. And then Lisa follows - also with her own accent. Yes Lisa has pulled a blaccent before, but she seems to have taken that criticism onboard. Both of them rap in their own voices this time.
If westerners can't differentiate Korean and Thai from Jamaican, that is problematic...
-
On point with the appropriation comment. I think they're the worst offenders in all of K-Pop.

Blackpink’s 'Born Pink' Is More of Their Signature FormulaThe girl group's sophomore album hits all the right notes. The only thing missing is evolution toward the potential they've always hadtime.comGood Lord. The Time Magazine review aint difficult to find. Time.com under their entertainment section. Does anyone need their ass wiped?
Basically Time reviewer says Black Pink are running in circles with the music they release, not trying anything new. Been there, done that

This person thinks they write their own songs. That's funny. What's not funny is that no matter how bad their actual song-writing efforts could potentially prove to be, it can't be any worse than the vapid, snobbish dreck YG gives them to sing. I don't think their fans realize just how immature and soulless their lyrics really are, even by kpop standards.

Listening to a chorus and it’s very clear BP don’t even sing much, it’s mostly instrumental or if they are it’s extremely simple borderline talking. PV was literally talking and now shut down is slightly faster talking.

it's obvious you haven't listened to the happiest girl yet. Always generalizing BP's discography. I could also claim bts only makes kidzbops like dynamite and permission to dance.

The copium
The Metacritic score shows 79 for Born Pink. Grammys gave a nice review for it as well. But that site
-
Don't care about what you quoted but this is a laughable claim. Half of blackpink's discography filled with songs having lyrics as dumb as dynamite means that it's not generalizing.
The only and really the only songs you can pull from BTS for having dumb lyrics are 3.
Why are people even defending claims that can't be defended here.
