I shared this video in the Solarsido thread, but I think everyone have to see this video, not only because we need some positivity, but because it's funny as hell!

Only HYBE and YG can call a SINGLE with 2 songs an ALBUM! Madness. I mean, I'm happy GF is back, but SM using them as a shield, just like I said. Giving them 2 songs after many years is insane.

It’s way cheaper than paying 15-35 for an album plus the $35 shipping fee and having to wait2-3 months shipping time. Even on the low end I can get 5 or more months (especially if you get student pricing) of Spotify for the cost of 1 album. Inflation has killed sales all around, even for Taylor Swift in the US.
To be honest, I'm never gonna understand why some Kpop fans buying albums from Korea, when they can buy it in their own regions. I can still buy her album in Europe, and I only have to wait 2 weeks at max. And all of these webshops are included in Henteo.
Is this true? Why did she sell less or not even close to Jisoo? Jisoo released her album in 2023 (sold around 1M first week iirc) and Rose released her album 2024 so not that far apart. I really thought Rose was the dark horse of BP, quiet fans online but spends a lot on her and I thought she had the Chinese fans support too.
'cause Rose doesn't have a mass-buying Chinese fandom.
Blinks said I'm clueless when I said she's the most underrated member of the group, while not only her physical sales but her digital numbers proving my point, excluding the Bruno collab of course.
To really show fandom support, it has to be across more metrics than streaming.
Thr number of members does play a role but there are other factors such as general/casual listeners, time of release and how long it has been out and as others have said, music genre and language will also influence number of streams.
Exactly!
Blackpink is pretty much the only or one of the few groups that release the same type of songs as a group and as soloists. While others releasing different type of music. That's why most of them don't chart that well or don't have big streaming numbers.
I don't care if I hurt someone's feelings, the fact is, some people create art for themselves, and some create noise for the trends.
Not EVERYTHING has to be about Mamamoo, fam. Sometimes youmove like an anti.
Shut up Yama. The thread clearly states only BLINKS supporting BP equally, and it's not true. And learn to read my guy, because I mentioned multiple groups, not just Mamamoo.
Go create some new Blackpink thread or NJ. Stop trying to lecture me, it's not a good look on you.
But I thought sones supported all the members equally
And I thought you know how to read! Looks Iike I was wrong.
Supporting someone isn't just about charts, especially if they're not even soloists like Taeyeon. How can you support the other 8 members when only Taeyeon releasing songs? The others have their own businesses, actors, DJ's etc.
Jisoo is a pretty good example. She's pretty much nonexistent as a soloist with her 2 songs, she's doing more modeling and acting than the others. Her first Kdrama was a flop. So, where are your fandom? Why do they don't support her the same as the others?
Jennie appeared on a Variety Show, yet it was a flop, and they canceled it. Also, "HER" HBO show was also a massive flop.
NowLisa will be a guest in one of the biggest HBO show, at least she can choose a show that's not gonna be a flop, and she doesn't have to rely on BLINKS.😅
Again, don't talk about equal supporting when your fandom doesn't do that either. Your fandom only cares about streaming, and that's all!
No, like all people on social media, they do it for the likes they get from other people. And this case, it's a trend, so they are guaranteed to get a like from other toxic ARMY.
Exactly! They are not even real ARMY just a bunch of kids and only follow BTS because they're popular.
Even if BTS ask them to stop, they wouldn't care. The same idiots attacked JK or any member when they had just a tiny conversation with a woman or a girl.
A lot of the BTS stans that I've encountered (at least on here) are chill. They actually are more mature than same members on here who criticize the entire fandom for the actions of the loud minority.
First: I said "SOME", it's literally in the title of the thread!
Lastly: Even if these idiots are the minority, they are not just a couple of people. Saying you can find thousands of them online is not exaggerating. Good for you if you're only talking to Kpop fans here. I work on social media platforms, so I don't really have a choice to not see these idiots attacking other people. They're commenting the same "BTS paved the way" crap under every Kpop related post, and that's just the tip of the iceberg you can read from them.
Saying, that part of the fandom are actually INSANE is 100% true!
you just named random groups, some of them don't even have a single soloist
Who cares? We're talking about solo fandom support, not who released more songs. Most of them are not soloists, but actors, or Variety content creators. If you want to talk about who released more songs, Blackpink wouldn't be in this conversation at all. Till Rose's album, they had like 3 songs per member.
They are still rookies, let's talk about this after 10 years! Let's see if BLINKS will support them the same way after many years. Taeyeon is the one and only group member who is still dominating the charts after a decade, for a reason!
I don't want to discuss with you, but it's clear as day and nighthow all these groups have super popular members with the fandom supporting way more the solo activities and also super unpopular members that won't have a career big enough bc the fandom don't care about them. And Rosé sales are almost 1M for her first debut album, and 500k for this one she released last month.
Successful wise all the pinks have hits under their belt.
BUUUUUT you have your opinion and I have mine, let's end this tiring cycle for today
But we don't talk about success, because every Mamamoo is successful, they're literally the first ever girl group with all members charting on Billboard. So, successful wise, all MMM member had their own hits, some has multiple. Hwasa is still the most successful 3rd gen Idol, just so you know.
We're talking about solo fandom differences, and it's clear that BLINKS don't support every member equally. Numbers don't lie.

I still remember the time when Red Velvet girls were shocked when Mamamoo said on Immortal Songs 2 that they're doing 4 concert almost every day! No other Kpop group did more concert than Mamamoo till this day. They did more than 700 concert, all-around the world. No one has 700 schedules if people don't care about them anymore.
MMM where Moonbyul is yet to have a hit song bc not even the fandom helped her in her strongest market aka sk, SNSD where just Taeyeon and Yoona exist for 70% of the fandom, RV where their popularity and fandom support is super obvious with pre scandal Irene being the top1, Twice where just Nayeon got streaming support in Pop era, Idle where there is also a clear difference in popularity, Aespa where just Karina song charted and 70% of mys act like just Karina and Winter exist. Ok.
It's these streams that makes BP solos near each other, even their sales is similar so nope, I don't see a group where all 4 are SUCCESSFUL solo wise without looking like 50% of the fandom forgot they released music.
Moonbyul is not a good example, because she's a rapper, and after all these years most people still think she's just a rapper. Also, she's not a digital monster, BUT she has the best-selling albums in Mamamoo by a mile! All 4 member of Mamamoo are successful.
Yet again, you're talking about streams and charting, but what does have to do with support? Moonbyul just finished her first solo World Tour. Name one Kpop girl group member other than a Mamamoo members who had a successful and a sold-out World Tour. They're literally paving the way for girl groups as a group and as soloists, because even after 10 years, they're still doing things that others never did. Yes, they're not digital monsters like your gals, but no other soloists release more music than them. And we're only talking about music. I didn't mention other contents. They're the hardest working Idols in this industry, and I'm not even exaggerating! Just read this list from 2024! Writing down this is an insane amount of work, let alone doing it. They released more than 40 songs last year. So yeah, it's not that easy for Moos to "support" everyone because no other group put out this many contents. We had to stream 40 songs and buy albums almost every month or go to a World Tour concert.

How can these people call themselves ARMY, I don't know. They don't even know the most basic things about BTS. These brainless kids belong in a mental hospital.
I'm not surprised seeing these comments, btw, because I'm doing a LOT of promoting on Insta, and all I see is ARMY commenting the same sentence everywhere. Wonder if they ever gonna get bored saying this nonsense. This time, they messed with the wrong fandom. 😂

You can say all 4 members of Blackpink has massive streaming numbers, but that has nothing to do with supporting them. That's like the bare minimum! Supporting someone isn't just about streaming!
All I see on SNS is BP solo stans fighting with each other calling XYZ member a sl-t, ugly etc. I don'tsee that with any other girl group solo stans, btw.
