I'm so so pleased by Lisa solo career so far that even then she surpassed all my expectations and gave me the biggest bop of the year!

I loved Rockstar, it was her re introduction! It was her in BP which I loved, a solid 8.5/10 then she gave us the even more amazing New Woman that is a solid 10/10 and the one I thought it wouldn't be surpassed by its excellence!! Then we got cute Moonlight Floor, 8/10, and now when I thought she would go an obvious way, nope, she said BOW DOWN!!! Born again is by far her best solo and wow, 10000/10!

I'm beyond proud of Lisa! Her versatility, creativity, her desire to try new things, her mind!! I'm just happy she is out of YGE bc just now I'm seeing her real potential!! I wish her all the luck and give me more, queen! I'm ready!!

Stream!!

versatility, creativity is good but essence and identity are necessary if you want to build a career.

And for the moment only Rosé has found her identity. If someone asked me now what type of songs Lisa and Jennie are doing now... I wouldn't even be able to say it.

Like, we can only recognize Jennie by her voice, and honestly, if I didn’t know Born Again was coming out and it randomly played on the radio, I would never guess it was Lisa.

It’s their first album, and they want to experiment. They might even be searching for their own style, which I totally understand, but I hope they find it asap rather than just trying random things here and there.

I want to listen to a song and say, “Yeah, that’s Jennie,” “That’s Lisa.”

Now about Born Again, I agree, it's a good song better than Moonlight and Rockstar

Identity is good, Rosé identity is known since debut, but I appreciate every different sound the others are giving to us. Rosé most not Rosé song was the one that blew up the way it did so why stay in your comfort zone just bc it matches you when you can also be considered a diversity artist and be unpredictable?

As long as you release good songs I don't see how this is bad imo. And BP case is so weird like YGE held them back for 7 years, I don't think it's wrong for them to experiment new things and see what they like more. We have yet to see their albums and maybe there it'll be songs that have their "image". And again, what image? Not like they had a solo career enough to stick. Their image in the group is different from their image as soloists, Lisa is by far not just the "tomboy/rapper" blinks like.

I found out that Lisa’s label bought this song from Raye’s because her stupid company didn’t allow to release this masterpiece(which she coproduced and cowrote).

What a hit was hidden from us.

To say the least I’m obsessed with this song

It is simply pop perfection

Impressed!! See? Lisa can see bops from afar!!!

I'm just so glad they released this masterpiece!!

Well, that’s exactly what I said… they’re still in the “finding what works for me” phase, and it shows in their album.

You don’t need to lose your essence or style to be versatile. It has nothing to do with image. Image is superficial—anyone can change their image.

Anyway, I’m curious to see their second album and whether it will still be experimental.

And no, I’m not expecting the BP formula. I just thought Jenlisa already had a clear idea of their style before going solo, but apparently, they’re still figuring it out.

Tbh they have potential to so many genres, if they stayed in their Money/Solo style even blinks would complain bc "oh, this again" when that were songs YGE wanted them to release, they never gave the girls opportunity to try more so while it's a surprise bc even I'm surprised by how different and amazing it sounds, it's still nice seeing them finding their own image and what they want to show for us!

all these thoughts that i have are projected on the future but not now.

For now, I'm enjoying the roller coaster ride and the feeling of surprise these girls give me.

And hey!! I think in the future they'll surprise us even more bc they'll have an image and explore it!! Let's just enjoy for now bc blinks never were so well treated like now kkkk
