    O primeiro álbum do Blackpink é um grande acerto! Representa tudo que elas são boas em fazer, mostra a personalidade e os talentos de cada uma de forma completa, tem vários estilos diferentes através das músicas e flerta entre os conceitos "black" e "pink" que estruturam o grupo. As parcerias são um acréscimo importante, embora não sejam o ponto forte. A duração do álbum deixa a genteO primeiro álbum do Blackpink é um grande acerto!

As parcerias são um acréscimo importante, embora não sejam o ponto forte. A duração do álbum deixa a gente querendo mais e como demorou a chegar o álbum, esperávamos mais algumas músicas. A tittle também é uma ótima decisão e a participação de David Guetta pode ser talvez a mais interessante para a sonoridade do grupo. É um excelente álbum pop e apresenta e representa muito bem o grupo! E vamos de: Aclamação!… Expand

    This Album show how versatile Blackpink as group. The Quality of their song keep getting better. In this album you can see their black and pink side but that doesn't make this album less cohesive at all, this a solid album.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. BLACKPINK just keeps outdoing themselves with each release, always bringing something new to the table. As a musician, I love noticing every aspect of a song. I hope my thoughts help you appreciate the songs more or at least make you be more self-aware of all the elements.

    1. How You Like That: I admit that when I first heard the single, I hadn't liked it because I was still new to Korean music and I'm normally put off by trap elements, but after a few more listens, the song grew on me. It's really interesting melody-wise and the off-key "that" part in the chorus is so smart. As a vocalist, I love little things like that. Lisa's rap is definitely a scene-stealer, the instrument in the background has such a unique sound and I would've never imagined it on a rap part. Even though I can't speak Korean, I can't stop singing this song.

    2. Ice Cream: This song was really hard to get into for me. It has silly but fun lyrics and it's raw bubblegum pop, I had only liked Lisa's rap when I first heard it. I came around to appreciate the other rap parts in between the verses and the high notes during the pre-chorus. Selena's voice fits perfectly with BLACKPINK though, it was cool to hear someone from my childhood sing with a group I currently admire. Even though it's my least favorite in the album, it's really fun to sing along to because of its silliness.

    3. Pretty Savage: The title says it all. BLACKPINK didn't come to play around. You could say this is close to a diss track, but it's a really good one. While this song is really hip-hop/trap, it has pop-y elements that actually work pretty well. I'm not too fond of parts like the "oh-oh-oh-oh" because it's been overused, but I think it helps to build up to the badass chorus and give listeners a break from the amount of spicy lyrics. Also, Jisoo finally said "BLACKPINK in your area"!

    4. Bet You Wanna: This bubblegum pop/rap song has a lot of interesting factors. Rosé's voice stands out the most for me, she pulls off some amazing Ariana Grande-like melodies and harmonies, especially by the end. It's a really catchy song, I love the chorus and bridge. I really wanted to hear Jennie and Lisa rap with Cardi though.

    5. Lovesick Girls: I will say I thought I'd hate the song because of the teasers, but I was wrong. The song kicks off with an amazing beat and guitar that generate such a great mood already. I'm personally in love with Lisa's and Jennie's rap, the lyrics are perfect and the electronic notes playing in the background bring me back to the good ol' mainstream pop days. While the chorus IS as pop-y as I had expected, it doesn't bother me because the lyrics are good and it surprisingly fits the song really well. Shout out to the Rosé rap-like bridge, and congrats to Jennie and Jisoo for finally getting writing credits!

    Side story: A friend asked me what the song was about because he got confused over "We were born to be alone, but why we still looking for love?" So I analyzed it for a few seconds and I realized it could be interpreted as searching for self-love as well, which I think is very clever.

    6. Crazy Over You: Jennie starts off strongly on this one. I can't get "I've been known to kiss and tell, send girls to wishing wells" out of my head, haha. It's such a badass verse. Can we talk about the flute (or whatever instrument that is)? It's really impressive how well it goes with the electronic elements. Overall, it's a really sexy song and I dig it so much, I wanna dance along to it!

    7. Love To Hate Me: This is my favorite of the album. It was really hard to come to this conclusion because all the songs are good, but damn, this one, the vocals and melodies are from another world. The verses have such a nice flow going on with its fun lyrics and soft vocals, I'm obsessed. They're followed by powerful high notes and then sassy rap breaks to finish it off with a cool chorus. When Lisa's rap comes off later, it just takes your breath away. Like, how did this song get even better?

    8. You Never Know: Jisoo starts off this song so beautifully with sweet piano chords playing beside her. Then we get to hear Lisa's soft voice right after, I honestly love hearing her sing since she mostly gets rap verses. This song feels emotional from the start, it feels personal, whether or not you know BLACKPINK's story and what they go through every day. Usually, ballads tend to be last on my rankings because I simply would rather jam to something fun, but this is one of my favorites from the album. Side note: I love how Lisa starts off the second verse, such a cool melody.

    If I had to rank the tracks, it would be something like this. I judge songs based on lyrics, instrumental and vocal melodies, and the level of freshness, I don't like listening to things I've heard before.

This is isn’t even KPop anymore. Lisa’s raps definitely gave this album more flavor adding it with the soulful vocals of Jisoo and the power of Rosé vocal color, Jennie did well as well.

    I loved all the songs, so yes, I will give it a high score. A super eclectic album, but despite that, the songs complement each other. BLACKPINK IN YOUR AREA!

    As a big BLACKPINK fan, I can say that they delivered absolutely EVERYTHING on their first full studio album. It's like a Bible em forma de música. Each song completes the other. It shows their vulnerable side, questions why we keep looking for a love that hurts us, talks about how people always see what they want. Jennie and Jisoo showcase their talent for songwriting on the titleAs a big BLACKPINK fan, I can say that they delivered absolutely EVERYTHING on their first full studio album. It's like a Bible em forma de música. Each song completes the other. It shows their vulnerable side, questions why we keep looking for a love that hurts us, talks about how people always see what they want. Jennie and Jisoo showcase their talent for songwriting on the title track, "lovesick girls", just as Jennie produced the song. The songs deliver a sexy, vulnerable, baddass and relaxing air. I am very happy that blackpink finally delivered his album, with exciting and dancing beats, that make you always want more… Expand

    This is such a amazing album. The girls worked over a year on it, to make it as prefect as it could be. All the songs are bops and there is zero skips.

    It is their debut album and definitely sounds greats. Every song has different and unique elements that makes you wanna hear more. However, it is too short :(

    The álbum es un álbum muy completo, sin canciones de relleno permitiendo que cada canción ocupe un lugar en el álbum que permite al oyente disfrutar el álbum, es divertido, poderoso y original y se puede sentir genuinamente a BLACKPINK en cada canción.

    Crammed chockfull of crowd-pleasing EDM pyrotechnics and cheeky one-liners, The Album is undeniably a product of a well-oiled, state-of-the-art pop machine, but it feels stuck looking back to tried and true trends in both K-pop and Western pop music.

    The Album showcases their signature style of blending genres and influences to create songs that are just as classically pop as they are identifiably BLACKPINK.

    Overflowing with confidence, Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa conquer each track on The Album with their vocal ability (both singing and rapping) and effortless charm, switching up styles to offer something for every type of fan.
