Why do people making a big deal about blackpink not doing music when most idols don't do music once the group activity is over?

  • Blackpink ia said to not care about music. But it's same for other idols who go into acting, modeling after group is over. They too don't care about music. Is it a issue because blackpink is successful?

  • Most idols aren't even involved in the process at all like rv, aespa, itzy, snsd etc but none of those groups got the level of popularity bp has so nobody gives a fuck


    people praise rv discography to heavens and none members is involved in writing or composing their songs and nobody cares

  • BP barely do music as a group that's supposed to be active. They only have 2 full albums and a couple minis after 6 years. They spent more time going to fashion shows and parties than actually release music.

    You answered the question yourself OP, groups do it AFTER their groups are OVER. Did bp disband after The Album?

    tbf sm and jyp are quite misognityistic and quite controlling.


    esp jyp with his obsession of sticking his hands in everything

  • The difference is that Blackpink did very little music, even when they were active as a group.

    7 years and what 60 songs?


    BLINKs can assuage themselves with excuses like "Quality over quantity" - but that excuse can apply if BP were self producing idols. They are not, they are still only performing idols.


    The other excuse is blame the agency, but when the credit of the success is taken by the idols/group, the discredit alone can't be pushed upon the agency.


    YGE proved with Blackpink, that music is not that critical to the success of a group, popularity and profits can be achieved in other ways. So in that sense, BP is a trendsetter.


    But BP & Music, that is just a hobby.

    The groups are doing it to get the bp life afterwards. If given a opportunity they'll leave it as soon as they can. They care about music and performance as much as bp.

    Exactly. Red velvet never pens any of their songs but are given a free pass because they aren't popular

  • OP is embarrassing the rest of us blinks...

  • Even if the comebacks end, other groups often do covers or for example sing a little in livestreams or post clips of them singing. Let alone if they didn’t have comebacks. Why does blackpink not do that?

  • I’m wondering if all the dumb asses in here say about 2ne1 cause those girls got even les Sonny’s than bp and barely had any credit sin their albums either yet you never see anyone coming for them for not loving music


    Blackpink cares about their music, end of story


  • 60 songs, what? Try 29 songs and a couple features with Lady Gaga and Dualipa.

  • Exactly. Red velvet never pens any of their songs but are given a free pass because they aren't popular

    What has writing songs got to do with a fee passor not? The main aim at the end of the day is music charts and sales, self written songs mean fuck all to the fans who will buy anything regardless and public who likely won't even be aware who wrote what.


    99% of groups don't produce their own music (I mean actually produce, not just write lyrics) and yet there still able to top charts. That includes RV and BP. So does that mean both a shit because they don't write?

    2ne1 weren't going to fashion shows or parties instead of promoting though. Hell even SNSD when they had super packed schedules in different countries still regularly performed on Korean music shows when they had a CB.

  • +100.

    Their discography was still 2 albums and 2 minis in 6 years

  • It's not 2010 anymore. Promoting doesn't mean just going to music and variety shows that don't get eng subs for worldwide audience until much later if ever


    Fashion and endorsement work keeps them in news in between release and getting paid so what's not to like?


    As for music, Rosé did gave blinks those covers on her birthday and sea of hope.


    Or perhaps what folks really meant was fan service. Yeah, they're not really big on that except for the occasional vlogs.

  • Y'all making up stuff like "quality over quantity".


    IVE is as busy as anyone in the industry, but they can still pump out quality music and comebacks. Hell, they just had 3 consecutive HUGE hits in a row.


    You can have the quantity in music as well as quality at the same time. One shouldn't affect the other.
