I tuned out after the opening line. When you start your rant with blatantly incorrect information, it completely derails your message and undermines anything that comes after.
Boombayah wasn't even their biggest song in debut; it was Whistle. And Whistle wasn't a top 5 girl group song that year, and of the top songs of 2016, it wasn't even top 30.
And if you look at it from a lens of longevity, it doesn't measure up to the biggest hits of the third generation girl groups.
But BLACKPINK did create a huge stir and their debut was an event in itself. That I agree with. The only time I can remember a debut being so sensational and industry changing happened 6 years later.
Internationally Boombayah did better than Whistle. And Whistle and PWF were among the biggest songs in 2016 with others top ggs and their impact was huge.
I never claimed they had the biggest hit, but they were always among the hits.

Oh yeah! Promo wise was terrible with 2022 taking the lead...
-
Their prime is 2018 and 2020 but then again YG flumbed in 2019 and 2022
2019 we can't say it was actually YGE fault tbh, Seungri did that himself with his trash character.... 2022 was still big big, but YGE was desperate to make them tour as they knew they weren't going to renew individually... In the end BP are still giving hits and great numbers.

Like since 2016 they never had a year where they didn't had hits and I'm counting even the solos
-
If majority of people think like this in allkpop, we have a great mass of people suffering from deep denial around.
BlackPink, from the beginning, did stir the pot like anyone else since SNSD. This very forum was in such a frenzy weeks before BP's debut and when it happened, omg, we knew the indutry had new queens.
Yeah, since the beginning they were extraordinary! A truly legendary group in the making!

It was love at first listening here! Lol
I've been intrigued by Asa since I paid attention to the group. She just has it!
At first I was like "oh, what is this?" It's so different from their others songs!
And Asa is an ace still underrated bc her talent and charisma is crazy!! Hope they hit bigger and bigger!

Never said BP solos are flops, but compared to Taeyeon who's the only active member as a soloist in Kpop, they're still rookies.
It's not even fair to compare them with SNSD, maybe with TWICE, because both are 3rd gen. Not to mention, they're still living off of BP's success. Not that I mind it, but it's not real success. IF they can do this for a decade or more, like Taeyeon, that will be impressive. Honestly, if they will do the same or just half of these numbers after 5-6 years (with frequent solo releases) I will say they're impressive, but not after when they just started their solo career. I mean, outside YG.
Don't forget, doesn't matter how big your group is, there's no lot of solo Kpop artist who can have a long (and successful) career in this industry. At least, not successful in terms of what most people talking about this nowadays: Charting and Streaming.
Lisa's career will be all about Thailand and the western market, I can't see her promoting herself in Korea or even Japan. The others will do that for sure, but the western market is not that easy, especially for a Kpop artist.
Oh, in this i totally agree with you in the sense of they still considered rookies solo wise. I also hope they get longevity like Taeyeon, but in a more global scale.
I know for Lisa this won't be easy, but tbf if being successful in SK is a big thing then Lisa being big in Thailand is too. And comparing isn't fair between gens, but it's something kpop fans do always regardless of common sense or not

Btw let me stay on topic!
I always liked Chiquita in baemon performances like it's visible how happy and grateful she is for debuting! Visually she is glowing this era
an era that started just today...but I'm loving the outfits she used in the MV and the concept match the girls so much! Glow, Chiquitaaaa! -
And the banana girl lover went full stupid in a matter of seconds. A new record.
You know, Jenchu is a troll sometimes, but she appreciating thai idols is something nice as she is thai.
You always calling Chiquita banana girl isn't nice specially when you are always so negative towards anything related to baemon. Maybe don't get so bothered by a teenager group.

How you know that, YT doesn't have any official stat from Thailand.
Jisoo's Flower might be the biggest on YT and Spotify, but on Kcharts, Flower was a hit, but she was out of TOP10 after 3 months or so. Same goes for Jennie.
Also, SPOT is Zico's song, not Jennie's. I don't care who are we talking about but if it's about a collab, it's only about the MAIN artist, not the other! And it's only a 2 month old song.
Taeyeon's "To X" was in the TOP10 for 5 months! That's the longevity! Like I said, BP has their Western market, SNSD still owns Asia (mainly Korea and Japan, of course)!
End of story!
Saying Asia and saying mainly Korea and Japan is wild when BP solos did amazing numbers in actually Asia.
But as I said BP are doing great as soloists and not just one member, they are doing great as 4 soloist something no gg could do so I'm happy with their dominance! Congrats Taeyeon too! Her solo career is amazing too!
Congrats to all!

I know some of you like to act as if they peaked in 2020~2022, but having a look overall they were fantastic since debut!
2016 BP had the biggest kpop female song ww with Boombayah and it was so big that even years later it was one of the most viewed mv in kpop and in 2016 they had two big hits in SK with Whistle and PWF.
2017 they only had a single that again was the biggest k female song ww and one of the biggest in SK.
2018 they had their real breakthrough in the ww market with D4 and again one of the biggest kpop songs in SK with their bside FY also becoming a hit!!
2019 they had KTL, again the biggest k female song ww reaching new peaks in Europe charts and one of the biggest kpop songs in SK.
2020 they had another big big year with the trio HYLT/IC/LSG ww and in SK.
2022 they had yet another incredible year with PV/SD and Typa Girl becoming hits ww and PV/SD still being big in SK.
Solo wise we had
2018 Jennie and her national hit Solo, a big song internationally
2021 Rosé and Lisa having the biggest female songs ww with Money becoming huge huge and OTG doing great numbers in SK
2023 was a surprise for everyone with how dominant and successful Jisoo solo was like she got a huge hit in SK and ww and she became a million seller like she was insane for this. Jennie Y&M did great too reaching 1 on Melon and doing great ww!
2024 we are starting a little late..
but Jennie and Zico spot is a hit in SK with good ww numbers and I'm excited about her first solo solo work outside YGE!! And Lisa that dropped Rockstar just 8 days ago and is already showing immense numbers that no other female act (maybe illit did it, but idk their numbers, sorry) did this year on Spotify and YouTube and she is starting her new solo era too so let's wait and see what 2024 has for BP!Overall since debut they are the biggest k female act ww and in SK they were always one of the top groups and always stayed on top with others ggs songs! This isn't an easy feat, but I'm proud of them and as now they are starting a new era I'm excited to see what's coming! Hope they stay healthy and give us a lot of good music to enjoy life!
Btw I'm making this thread just to show how great and present they still are in kpop. Idk if they'll ever tour again as a group or cb as a group, but even though YGE sucked managing their music career I'm a happy blink for being with them since 2016 and continuing so!
They were my first ult group alongside with BB so they'll always have a special place in my heart and I'll always be happy to see them achieving their dreams! They still have a lot of things they want to try so to the blinks that are choosing to stay with them! Welcome to our new era!

PS: I actually stayed off topic, but that was pretty much what I wanted to say! Blinks, our years with BP were great
now let's keep going with soloists pinks! -

Congrats to them for being streamed. At least they can do that. But where's Lisa in Korea?
YT in SK: 2.1M streams
US: 3.1M
UK: 697K
Global: 86M (that's every country if you don't know)
Melon: Still no TOP100
Daily: 112
HOT100: 86
And no Billboard chart yet!
Taeyeon on Melon TOP100: #56 (she released her latest album 7 months ago)
So, where's the dominance of BP and their solos, exactly?
Even Jennie's song (You & Me) is not in TOP100 anymore, she's basically the only member who has longevity! But don't worry, TWICE doesn't have much better stats than BP group or solo on charts.
Lisa is doing great in her home country
And Jisoo flower being the biggest female soloist song last year.
Jennie with Spot still in the top 10 on Melon is doing great! Thanks for showing how dominant they are in a ww scale and in SK with the 3 kr members
