I still remember the day 4Mothers released this COLLAPSE and everyone lost their ****...the fact that it didn't go #1 BLEW my mind at the time. What happened?

 

The hype was there...this was everywhere!

 

And we don't have to talk about Jihyun's Shuhua-like transformation...

G-idle surpassed 4minute all the way back at Tomboy imo. 4minute have a few fun bops but they are very forgotten in comparison to other 2nd gen groups like Kara, Wonder Girls, SNSD etc :skull: Also unlike many 2nd gen groups, their discography is terrible especially earlier on. I say this as a typical defender of 2nd gen legacy.

 

For 4mothers I fear their main legacy was how overshadowed they were by Hyunallah's solo career and celebrity :skull:

4Minute is like, definition "you had to be there."

this is so true...their career was such a kii to watch. When they randomly went #1 with Watcha Doin Today and beat SNSD and 2NE1 on that music show, which originated that CLASSIQUE Sunny gif. Ugh...I miss those times.

I feel like BP will all renew :michael: They are from the biggest gg, so they will do well for some time but I really can't see Jisoo or Rosé ever outdoing BP numbers on their own. Jennie, it depends (on what she wants and how much she wants to do it :rip:). The only one who would really benefit from going solo is Lisa, her talent/star power is wasted in that group, I swear :rip: 

Lisa is a Rihanna-lite in the making for reallll

 

Shes not a strong vocalist but she has a very distinct vocal color that I think would eat in pop radio. Plus shes like 99% a better performer than all of western music :deadbanana2:

also the only one who could safely leave YG would be lisa (since she doesn’t need korea)

i feel like the company could try to blacklist the pinks in korea or sumn

Jennie could still do her fanmeets and cute lil moments in Korea a la Jessica she's always striked me more as a talented Selena Gomez :toofunny3: Korea would waste her, give her to a US label fr shes a Hollywood star in the making

 

Rosé would flop without BP I fear, shes too boring.

 

Jisoo can stay being a local icon/socialite/part time actress if she wants.

In reality tho they'll all probably renew with iron clad benefits that allow them to pursue international ventures without being held back (like Interscope will probably handle all their non-Asia promo or smth)

Where do you think Blackpink will sign with?

 

Jennie - WME 

Lisa - RCA

Jisoo - BH Entertainment

Rose - Columbia

Lisa and Jennie would make sense in Warner or Republic. Those labels know how to put on a SHOW. Though I fear Warner historically struggles with juggling more than one A list male and female. Lisa/Jennie would get all the budget and Dua... :toofunny3:

 

Taylor's hit records are gonna fund L1 :fan:

Honestly I hope BP disbands tbh. It’s clear the girlies don’t want anything to do with the group anymore. And I don’t blame them. They can just thrive individually to do whatever. They’ve been done with the kpop idol routine/lifestyle for a while now.

They clearly are tight knit and genuine friends but yeah ur right they probably are too entrenched in Western media and they operate like a western music act already anyways, the Kpop routine is probably too taxing for them already.

 

Jisoo will probably stay in Korea obvs and pursue full time acting.

The way the 9muses comeback that was supposed to happen suddenly became N/A :monkey: we need them to call Sera back so Gyeongree and friends can slay, even if it’s just a white backdrop and some lewks again

 

 

One of my favorite $10 budget MVs of all time btw :cm:

Im seriously starting to think there’s something going on behind the scenes. It’s been over a year since Heartburn. She usually doesn’t take this long between cbs. I swear if it’s the company playing stupid **** then imma burn the building
