Rosé 'fights' Jennie, ousts teammates from China, BLACKPINK is in turmoil?

Rosé has just officially "surpassed" Jennie to become the female Kpop artist with the best-selling digital album in China with the solo song "rosie". This spectacular throne change also sparked mixed speculations about the underground competition between BLACKPINK girls.

The "usurpation" of history and the power of the Rosé empire

According to the latest data from China Music Data, Rosé's solo album titled rosie has officially set an unprecedented milestone with cumulative sales reaching 25.9 million yuan. This "huge" number directly broke the record of 25.2 million yuan that Jennie had previously set with the album RUBY. Rosé's "oust" of her close teammate to occupy a unique position in the Chinese market has shown the unstoppable attraction of BLACKPINK's main vocalist.

If in 2025, Jennie will be hailed as the "Queen of Revenue" with her unique R&B style, just a year later, Rosé has proven that her exquisite music and emotional voice are the ultimate "weapon" to conquer the hearts of mainland audiences. This change of throne took place so rapidly that it made the international media question: Is this a sublimation of art or a fierce race for personal power between members of the same global music group?

BLACKPINK's "turbidity" or solo power expansion strategy?

As soon as the information that Rosé surpassed Jennie spread, the social networks Weibo and X exploded with thousands of mixed opinions. The phrase "BLACKPINK is turbid" was suddenly pushed to the top of the search trend when a part of the audience thought that the members' continuous breaking of each other's records was creating invisible distances. However, looking at the overall picture, this is actually a healthy and proud "competition" of the world's top ladies.

Not only Rosé and Jennie, the other two pieces of the puzzle, Jisoo and Lisa, are also creating a solid "four-legged" position in China. Jisoo's album AMORTAGE currently holds the third position with 14.1 million yuan, closely followed by Lisa's Alter Ego with 8.3 million yuan. The fact that all four members have been among the top best-selling K-pop female artists in the last three years in China is the strongest proof that the BLACKPINK brand is still an invulnerable "empire", despite the fact that each is pursuing their own paths.

The bravery of the stars standing at the top of the world

Rosé's achievement in the Chinese market in 2026 is not merely a commercial victory, but also an affirmation of the right musical thinking. The careful investment from image to international orientation has helped her not to be mixed up in the mainstream of K-pop. Instead of creating a rift, this internal race is the catalyst that helps each member break their own limits, while keeping the group's fire burning in the hearts of fans.

Rosé's leading the sales charts in a fastidious market like China has sketched a well-rounded portrait of a solo artist capable of reshaping the standards of a global star. BLACKPINK is now no longer girls standing in the same frame to shine, but four independent individuals, capable of "claiming king" in any market they set foot in.

BLACKPINK has a member who wants to leave the group, Rosé speaks out and reveals a shocking secret. An Lâm22:32:18 29/01/2026After the DEADLINE world tour ended in tears, Rosé's latest comments about respecting the members' decisions to leave the group are causing a stir among fans worldwide.
