    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Feels like the album was made in a rush. Was expecting so much more for their first full album, turned out it only has 8 songs with 2 of them being pre-released singles. The songs are pretty generic, the only song i think is good is Pretty Savage. I looked up the lyrics and DEFINITELY not sth I expect, given that I rmb their fans said Blackpink has sth to do with woman empowerment...… Expand

    Song after song and nothing new. All their songs sound the same. Boring! Ice cream is atrocious. Lab created and no personality, I wonder if the girls even like these songs. Atleast they look beautiful

    This album is amazing, every single track has it's own flavor, every track differs from each other and the whole album represents blackpink on it's own.
    The Album is literally a masterpiece and no wonder everyone's drooling over it. Blackpink really brought something new and fresh to the table.

    The album is very good. The concepts of the songs are varied and complete. You can have strength and feel the sincere love in its lyrics. During my analysis of the mum, I found wonderful things and meanings concealed in it. Rap ​​was perfect. The vocals line was calm and strong. Blackpink demonstrated their universality and fame this week.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The album is good. Its amazing but for the 4 years of waiting an album i can’t really say its truly worth my wait. Maybe i expected too much. But each track brings their own coolness and fun. ‘Pretty savage’ did sound like something they would do. The intro and the first verse was lit. A fan of more rap sure will like it. And then ‘you never know’ reminded me of ‘hope not’. The vibe was chill and emotional. Im not a fan of ‘bet you wanna’ its the song that i’ll probably listen less. ‘Love to hate me’ brings something new to the table. Other than that the rest were pretty good. To be honest i don’t see myself repeating any other songs than lovesick girls and love to hate me. Before even saying anything about the album you should check it out first.

    Cuatro años después de su debut con BOOMBAYAH, BLACKPINK finalmente lanza su primer álbum. Se disfruta tanto que en serio lastima que sólo tenga 8 canciones. Ojalá YG escuche a BLINK y decidan sacar una versión deluxe para hacerle justicia al talento que nos mostraron las chicas.

Their songs never have much variety in sound, and this album didn't change a thing in how I feel for them. I used to be a fan when they debuted, it was a fresh concept and their visuals were amazing (still are btw), but now I feel tired of the "strong bad ass girls" visuals and the songs don't make me interested enough to ignore the repetition of the visual. Also the feats on this album don't look organic, but more of a thing YG got for them to up the sales and visibility of the songs, Cardi doesn't add anything to the song she's in and Selena also does not feel "fresh" like I expected to.… Expand

But it's good too see Blackpink change their vibe and mood in their music, the alternation of the Black vibe tracks with the Pink vibe tracks are great too, and their some worthy-hearing tracks, like Pretty Savage (it's like 뚜두뚜두) with more perfection in the producion and more quiet in the outro, Lovesick Girls is just likd a club banger which they did it in 2019 with track Don't Know What To Do in their Korean EP Kill This Love but giving us a longer chorus with the brige and the outro looks great, Love To Hate Me reminds me a little bit about In & Out by Red Velvet but with a deep mood beat in the chorus, You Better Know is kinda good song but the autotune in Jisoo post-chorus is weird (?), Crady Over You giving us an Indian-Chinese music vibe, worth to hear too. About Bet You Wanna, just like Cardi B has spoiled, it's a sweet Pop-R&B song, but the autotune has ruined some parts of the song. Overall, The Album is a good start for them to make an official global Studio Album, we can believe that their releases in the future would be more better, giving us quality songs just like they do when their first time apperance in 2016-2017, congrats Blackpink!I give you my 7 (literally I want give them 6.5-6.8 points)… Expand

    Every song is good, no skips. BLACKPINK stepped up their game in terms of vocals and rapping. The songs are different from their previous releases, definitely their best one.

    This is not an album, is THE ALBUM, and it deserves to be called like that: every song represents all the hard work, the dedication and passion the girls have and the album itself is a gift for their fans

    I love the light crisp feel of this album. This album is not like any Kpop that I know, which is refreshing—a bit of Electropop with R&B and EDM. Indeed fresh and new sound!

    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.
