Music Review: Blackpink K-pop star Rosé's debut solo album ‘Rosie’ is heartfelt, but slightly sleepy.

Rosé, the nightingale of the massively popular Korean girl group Blackpink, has flown the nest and launched her first solo album “Rosie.” She’s the first of the awesome foursome to release a full-length solo record, and in English at that. Members Jisoo and Jennie have previously released singles, and Lisa is gearing up for her own studio album in 2025.

Across “Rosie,” titled after Rosé's nickname to communicate a kind of personal intimacy, the singer goes to great lengths to detach herself sonically from her band. Unlike Blackpink’s high energy electro-pop output, Rosé’s solo material is that of a coffee-house dweller with a sideline in romantic drama. But don’t expect finger-plucked acoustic guitar balladry exclusively — “Rosie” is reserved in some moments, full of life in others.

The album starts off chipper, with the soaring piano ballad “Number One Girl,” the cool synth-pop track “Two Years,” the dynamic, catchy Bruno Mars collaboration “Apt.,” and the contemporary, Taylor Swift-indebted pop of “Toxic Till the End.” But it invariably slows down, preferring fairly stripped back production throughout. She’s got the voice and she’s flaunting it; it’s her prerogative to showcase her range at the expense of a more energetic beat.

Across 12-tracks, the album studies heartache over lost loves (“It’s been two years and you’re still not gone/It doesn’t make sense that I can’t move on,” she sings on “Two Years”), missed chances (“Are we lovers or friends/'Cause it’s as good as it gets” in “Call it the End”) and ambivalence over situationships that probably should’ve been nipped in the bud but staggered along, strung by the power of lust and not much else. (That one is everywhere — particularly in the dubious boyfriends of “Toxic Till the End” and “Gameboy.”) Who can’t relate?

The album is an emotional rollercoaster easy to empathize with, stuffed with songs that articulate the trials and tribulations of early adult years — the search for connection and getting dragged into romances that lead nowhere. But throughout, fans of both Blackpink and Rosé might miss the spirited songs of her group. After all — your 20s are for partying, too — not just heartbreak.

That's why this is a Rosé album, not a BP one

Their solos being different from their group songs is the right decision imo. They are still a group and will cb with their own BP sound, they are so right to explore others genres they love!

I'm anticipating even more. If I want to listen to BP kinda like songs I will listen to BP

gameboy

toxic till the end

dance all night

3 am and 2 years

I'm really liking toxic till the end

and giving the rest of the album a listen in due course

Loved all the songs, but Toxic till the end is tittle track for reason

just gave toxic til the end a listen...is pretty much a taylor swift song

still waiting for toxic till the end...I want to listen with music video.

for now my fav is stay a little longer.

The first half is really strong, second gets weaker but stay a little longer is the song to highlight the album for me. Her new vocals just eat and I hope she used them for the group cb cause she sounds just mature and powerful

I mean dance all night is a freaking bop. Straight to playlist.

This is not k-pop, more like pop. I'm glad that Rosé decided to leave k-pop to realize her own talent.

It's okay. A bit boring, meh and generic in some parts, but there's a few highlights:

two years

drinks or coffee

stay a little longer

Stay little longer is definitely the best B side

Overall it's a nice debut album, and cohesive. It does get a bit samey and boring to me but no song stands out as bad, and it has a few I love. She sounds great, and I like some of the lyrics.

APT. is easily the best on the album, but gameboy, drinks or coffee and stay a little longer are also good.

Gameboy, Stay a little longer and toxic till the end are the outlier among the new songs

Her voice makes me feel things

whole album is great but my favorite are:

Stay a little longer

Toxic til the end

Gameboy

Dance all night

and of course APT and Number One Girl

Out of the bsides I like Gameboy the most from first listen !

It's decent, but I don't think it compares to the other pop artists albums. I think it gets repetitive, but I did like the stretch between toxic till the end to gameboy. I felt she did better with the songs that were supposed to be fun like apt, drink or coffee, and gameboy. Happy for her, and I saved some songs to my playlist

This album somewhat gives Taylor Swift vibes. I'm all in for it :)

Yes

after a couple listens, toxic till the end grew on me. like it a lot.

it's a good album. a few snoozes here and there, but I'm satisfied with it overall. her vocals have improved very much, especially in tracks like stay a little longer and call it the end, you can hear that quite well.

In her interview she mentioned even teddy was impressed how much she improved vocally, especially using her natural tone. She must took some kind of vocal lessons in the past year.

It's ok. Nothing outstanding or extraordinary.
