The fact that they managed to do that with 8 SONGS! 

Proof literally has 35 songs :rip:

Everyone trying to bring up BP album total versions when comparing album sales, but  I think a tweet comparing number of songs and total streams won't be as popularly retweets or liked lol

You're looking at it from a Western pov :deadbanana: BP are huge and have a big following globally but at the end of the day they're still a K-Pop group and as previously mentioned this album had 0 high profile collabs with western artists and one of the 8 tracks leaked ages ago + one has been out for weeks.

 

To put it into perspective, Born Pink's first day outdid all the other GG albums's first weeks. Its the 3rd biggest debut overall for a Kpop album only after 2 BTS albums (BE had their English songs on it and Proof was a compilation album with lots of songs :skull:).

So no it's not really "average", it's an amazing debut and comparing it to solo artists in Western Pop is not fair.

I mean, most of the album is in english and considering how big they became, not sure why I should act like they're a sort of local kpop group. They literally have two songs above 100M playlisting reach including the new single and them releasing super short songs isn't for art.

 

By the way, why am I on the BP album thread? I'm sure I posted on a Spotify thread :huh:

Some songs are sung in English or have English lines but at the end of the day it is still K-Pop especially for the average Spotify listener. Not really sure why you're expecting them to pull like 50M+ debuts with the amount of tracks their albums have (which are considered EPs/mini albums for other companies) when not even BTS did that with their Western pandering songs. Pink Venom served good longevity on the charts so far and Shut Down just had a history making #1 debut too, we'll see how it goes, but anything else is a plus at this point for them. :michael:

Yes its because rosé starring in live music tv series kind of thing, and have the most covers out there. Even doing it live on Instagram 

Yes and that’s great. But then we have Lisa working and invest times for months for her last lili film. If it isn’t being PASSIONATE idk what it is

the numbers are great and expected, they have two less songs, one solo and another (leaked) song that was already released on youtube before :lmao:

RFL shouldve been kept off. It's truly horrible.

 

Tally shouldnt been changed less. The guitar riffs in the demo was the best part of the song but they removed it.

 

Happiest Girl shouldve remained in the same key.

 

Overall a very fun record. Kinda pop perfection but obviously very basic. 6.5-7/10

Massively agree, the Natalia demo is much better than the final result, the song only takes off toward the end

Hard to love is such a banger i hope they'll fix it and release the group version.. or that it eventually leaks. 

Imagine giving rose a solo song on the Album when she already has a 2 songs mini and a big feature (before bp but still :rip:) and jisoo has literally NOTHING. YG is absolute garbage and i hope they'll disband atp so jisoo is free to release music herself.

 

 

How so, there is no way that a group version would sound better than Rosé solo on this track, it's what the song needed.

Lisa is passionate with her dancing, rosé with music

So far I definitely love Shut Down the most, it’s probably my fav single since DDU :heart:

 

Yeahx3 is good, I love the instrumental the most. 
 

THG is my second fav song although I liked Natalia’s vocals better. They still delivered tho. 
 

Pink Venom I originally didn’t like at all when it was out but as opener for the album it’s actually amazing and I’ve bopped to it more than ever before. :WAP:
 

The other songs are cute girls but they haven’t really catched me so far. I think RFL will def grow on me though.

The outro on YYY is so good :loki: But whyyyyy did it need to fade out and why couldnt it be 20 sec longer.. if they added another hook over that beat :loki: Now it feels imcomplete and i get why they didnt make it a single.. but if they reworked it a bit it would be such a hit

No, that’s not just "dancing"! It’s performing, which is what also define an artist. She’s passionate about performing

:deadbanana4:

well honestly if there's more songs why not release them? I seriously Hate YG the album is not even 25 min :deadbanana4:

even if the songs are not A+ material at least is better having an album of 10 tracks than 8 :deadbanana4:

Idk why you differentiate it. Both are important for idols. People says rosé seems more passionate about music doesn't mean others aren't passionate about it plus other things too. it's not a slight to other members,because each have different set of skills. It's also the sentiment that being talked about after LUTS, when she spoke honestly about her music journey too, you should watch it cause that scene is saddening.
