    Amo esse álbum mas temos que admitir, que trabalho preguiçoso. Com apenas 8 musicas e com tanto tempo sem lançar nada, a YG teve tempo de sobra para proporcionar um álbum de qualidade e recheado de hits, mas a preguiça falou mais alto e fizeram algo raso, porém, bom. EU como blink gostei das musicas mas senti muita falta de mais!

    This album deserved more songs, more visuals and more cohesion, I would say. Born Pink isn't a bad album, but it's more of the same, it didn't have the same impact as The Album. I realized that this album is the closure From different eras. So, I hope that in the next era they innovate in style, in concept and manage to impact as they always have, they achieve this, it just needs YG toThis album deserved more songs, more visuals and more cohesion, I would say.

    Decepcionante. Sinceramente crei que las chicas nos tendrian algo nuevo para mostrar, lamentablemente solo hubo un par de cambios, mismos sonidos, temas iguales y no hay nada relevante que hayan escrito. Las interpretes pueden ser lindas pero no salvan el álbum que es de mala calidad.

    letras supérfluas, não condizem com as artistas, elas não são creditadas em nada do álbum e realmente só trabalham como intérpretes do trabalho alheio. além disso as performances são meia boca, não sabem fazer ao vivo

    Las canciones son como sonidos básicos q encuentras en línea, no tienen un significado ni mensaje positivo que demostrar, por lo que sé ni siquiera las 4 escriben sus canciones, entonces como van a transmitir algo q solo leen pero que nunca han sentido?

    The same sh*t as always. The lyrics are misogynistic. They seem to have been written by a pervert who doesn't know how a strong woman looks. They promote unrealistic beauty standards and toxic behaviours. The 4 members are like a Regina George wannabe cult. Honestly, it's simply terrible.

    It’s an ok album. Didn’t like 3 songs, but happiest girl really is beautifully written. I find this album similar to their previous one

    again, they take years to do an album and when realeased it's a full of nothing. taking the trash of American productions, changing three words to make a Korean album in english? why? even the sound doesn't help, just boring.

    Every song sounds exactly the same as every other album Blackpink have come out with. No creativity or versatility in this album just the same generic EDM beats covered with onomatopoeia lyrics none of which were written by the members themselves.

    Could be better, why aren’t they trying harder for this group. Might as well disband at this point.

    Literally mediocre album. Same old kind of vibe. I hate their I am better than other girls narrative. Some songs are bare able like, hard to love. But all the others are the same teddy formula. Such a disappointment. Waited 2 years for this mess. They for sure don't know how to make music. FREE THE GIRLS FOR TEDDY AND HIS MEDIOCURE MUSIC STYLE. THEY DESERVE BETTER.

    Some songs were alright, but overall a very boring album. I'm not a fan of the group, but all the girls are really beautiful and talented but they don't show any passion. It's kinda confusing to me how they have such dedicated fans because the group itself doesn't seem to care about the fans lol. Talented girls, but none of that talent was put into this album.

    Lack of creativity. Repetitive lyrics. Lyrics are not cohesive. The use of blaccent while being Asian needs to be studied. No originality..

    People who like the group will like the album, but I am not one or those people. Like Time said, “There’s no growth and no new sounds.” personally I think it’s trashy.

    My daughter enjoyed this album and even though I’ve never listened to Black Pink I decided to give it a try. It wasn’t terrible, just wasn’t that interesting to listen to and even though there were a few insightful lyrics overall it just didn’t grab me. Maybe the next album…

    Es como novedoso pero al mismo tiempo lo mismo, creo que no podría decir que me parece mejor que álbum anterior. O sea que no hubo mejora después de un tiempo, solo como para complacer a los fanáticos que necesitaban un comeback, en general, no me convenció

    The execution itself often falls frustratingly flat, lacking originality and a clear-cut focus. With its limited scope of musical conceptions, Born Pink, therefore, sounds strangely restricted, as if detained in a confined space wherein it longs to escape.

    On ‘Born Pink’, BLACKPINK tread familiar thematic territory for pop music, but the imagery – finding solace from heartbreak at the bottom of a bottle (‘The Happiest Girl’), boasting about being the type of girl you take to your “mama house” (‘Typa Girl’) – isn’t particularly novel, though they have effectively applied a personal touch in the past (see Jennie’s ‘Solo’).

    “Born Pink” is occasionally galvanic, and occasionally iterative. When the group does push into new territory — or more accurately, unshackles itself from familiar ground — it doesn’t leave much of an impact.
