Rosé 'overthrew' BLACKPINK's efforts in a decade, breaking the 'curse' with 3 words?

BLACKPINK, YG's 3rd generation girl group, has been active for nearly 10 years (about to enter their 9th year), with less than 50 songs released, 2 full albums, and an unprecedentedly small comeback.

Up to now, BLACKPINK has been "on hiatus" for nearly 3 years, with the group's last product being the album Born Pink released in September 2022. Notably, BLACKPINK has not won any Daesang (the highest award of Korean award ceremonies) in their career, but is still the most successful girl group in the world today. For many fans, this is not very important to BLACKPINK. Because without Daesang, the group still "broke" a series of international records. But somewhere, missing an important achievement shows that recognition in their home country of Korea is still a regrettable low note.

2024 is the year that BLACKPINK members build their own careers. The oldest member Jisoo focuses on acting and preparing her own album. The three members Lisa, Jennie and Rosé have released their personal projects one after another. Rosé is currently the most explosive name after the success of the super hit APT. (collaboration with international superstar Bruno Mars) and her debut album rosie.

On December 27, Rosé officially broke the "Daesang curse" with the Song of the Year award at AAA 2024 for APT.. BLACKPINK's main vocalist reached a new milestone in her career, becoming the first solo artist in history to win the Song of the Year Daesang at AAA. And for BLINKs, this achievement is even more impressive as Rosé brought home her first Daesang, as well as the first Daesang among BLACKPINK members.

Releasing APT. in October 2024, Rosé created some incredible "firsts". The Australian rose did what BLACKPINK couldn't do in the past 8 years, after only 3 months of managing her own personal career. Looking at Rosé's achievements with the album rosie, fans are even more proud.

The album "rosie" includes 12 tracks, composed and produced by Rosé herself, inserting her own story into the music. Before releasing the full album, Rosé released 2 singles APT. (featuring Bruno Mars) and number one girl - a heartbreaking ballad. The main vocalist of BLACKPINK conquered the world with the super hit APT., the unexpected success of this song laid a solid foundation for the entire album "rosie".

As the first member of BLACKPINK to release her debut album, Rosé has made the entire music industry look forward to it. After "rosie" was released, the Australian rose received a storm of compliments from music listeners for her meticulousness from lyrics to melody. Rosé also showed her strong artistry by controlling every step from music production to MV ideas, images, and album concepts. The media used many beautiful adjectives to talk about Rosé's solo.

However, Rosé still cannot satisfy all the demanding audiences. Pitchfork - the world's most demanding music site reviewed the album "rosie". This site gave Rosé's debut album a mere 5.5 points - a low average score with many harsh reviews.

Pitchfork commented that Rosé's album lacked identity. The most prominent part was the track APT., but Bruno Mars participated. Rosé broke the Kpop barrier, but she still had a long way to go to reach pop star status. "Even with the support of a major record label, an all-star team of songwriters and producers, and Rosé's eight years of experience in BLACKPINK, Rosie didn't bring anything interesting or interesting. Its writing style paled when compared to other great breakup albums...", Pitchfork continued. Reading the full review of this site, it can be seen that Rosé could not satisfy the difficult music site.

In addition, Forbes - a prestigious newspaper in the US commented that "Rosé is disappointing" when looking at what the album "rosie" achieved on the music charts. Besides APT. causing a storm, the remaining tracks were all out of breath.
