    BLACKPINK is a group that never fails to impress. The Album has songs that perfectly showcase the group's style, whilst simultaneously proving to their listeners how versatile their group is. My only complaint is the amount of songs because I wish they had more. Although, I did watch an interview where they emphasized how this album focuses more on the quality rather than quantity; AndBLACKPINK is a group that never fails to impress.

    BLACKPINK is a group that makes you fall in love with them and keep you wanting more. This Album portrays the different styles BLACKPINK is capable of pulling off. Each and every song is so catchy, and I can't wait for their next release. KPOP Titans indeed.    … Expand

    I am beyond impressed with all the tracks on The Album! Blackpink has definitely tapped into something different than what they are used to. The lyrics definitely have meaning behind them that even a child can understand are meant to empower someone. It's an album that anyone can enjoy if they want uplifting beats.

    I’m not surprised it took 4 years for them to have a full album. They really said quality over quantity. I know the moment I decided to stan these girls, I will not be disappointed with whatever they released. This album is everything we (blinks) been asking for and Blackpink gave us all. Their vocals and rap parts were perfect. Literally no skip.

They always make it better. Jennie and Jisoo as the co-writter of the title track is something that stands out in Lovesick Girls, is just a song with such quality. The other tracks does not fall behind, this is a no-skio Album… Expand

    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.
