Yeah I don't get how it's not even written as 'Rose solo' in parenthesis, it's just Hard To Love -Blackpink. 

Rosé having to split the check of the streams of the best Born Pink bside :chick1:

for the arts and not the charts....

 

 

Thankfully they have both :clap3:

 

 

But KTRL told us they are streaming poison? organic streams without payola only s:wan:

I guess a better way to put it is that I believe APT has the potential to put Rose as a singer on the map in the west in a way that OOTB and Money didnt. But let me not speak so fast

Yeah I wouldn't make any assumptions based on 12 hours :skull: 

 

The Bruno Mars ft does help. Honestly surprised Jennie didn't have a ft on her single as a big western name brings attention. Maybe she does on other singles like Lisa for her second single. 
 

I feel like she could snatch a collab with Sabrina or something since she loves black pink.

How is Rose song doing in America?

 

In fact, what's Mantra's American numbers right now?

I mean it's a BP member song. the fans and the kpop casual fans will carry it initially but it will need payola and have to rely on Bruno's name to properly crossover to the GP.

 

I think mantra is l at like #150 something

I feel like Kpop is slowly shifting towards "the great era of soloists", especially with the way BP and BTS members are constantly releasing solo music now, that are outperforming 99 % of Kpop right now.
I don't see either BTS or BP focusing on group activities as much anymore with both groups probably having 1 comeback each in 2025 along with a world tour for both groups. Other than that I see both group mostly focusing on their solo careers.

 

Like BTS and BP alone makes 11 successful soloists:

 

  • Lisa
  • Jennie
  • Rosè
  • Jisoo
  • Jungkook
  • Jimin
  • V
  • Jin
  • Suga
  • J-Hope
  • RM

I'm curious how the competition is going unfold in the upcoming years.
Jennie, Lisa, Rosè, Jungkook and Jimin are probably the ones who have the biggest chances of going mainstream tho, but you never know.

Aespa entering their RBB/ Zimzalabim era

 

Red Flavor - Spicy: summer smash

PAB - Drama: winter smash

Power Up - Supernova: another summer smash

RBB - Whiplash: Halloween tank

 

Oh I'm seeing the parallel

 

:deadbanana4:

Honestly, it's such a kii that Aespa's label is willing to give up their digital streak so easily. Everyone is preparing for war with Jennie, Rose, ILLIT, G-Dragon, etc. releasing and SM's just throwing out a song they like but think will be polarizing and bomb :skull: 

 

Then again, they thought Supernova would underperform and Armageddon would be a massive smash, so maybe they don't really have their pulse on what will be a hit.

i'm happy that there are new solo acts that see success in sk, it's been a good few years since idols dominated the charts: sunmi, somi, chungha are releasing once in a blue moon (only iu and taeyeon left).

 

i'm excited to see the new generation of idols going solo (karina, wonyoung, chaewon..), and where tf is irene?? can sm do something

can we be serious

none of the BP (or BTS) members are making it in the west in the same way as an artist like sabrina or chappell or olivia did. like it's not just happening :rip:

they can get a hit if a song goes viral but that won't make them "mainstream" and i think that's OK

 

their albums will sell regardless and that's what matters the most to the labels

BIGGEST CHANCES of going mainstream ≠ will go mainstream

plus 3/4 of BP are doing amazing in korea

like every release went top 3 i think

 

also despite being called LaLoser, her solo debut debuted/peaked higher than some of her korean peers' debuts/comebacks :sistrens:

APT is actually the BP solo I have liked the most. 

Rose really did that and Bruno fits the song so well.

Is not like a lot of these western collabs that feel forced, weird or out of place. I'm very surprised. :clap3:

To be honest, none of the aespa title tracks feel safe with the exception of Spicy. 

The fact that songs like Next Level, Drama and Supernova became hits was a surprise imo.

tbh i know kpop acts have VERY slim chance of becoming a household name in the US, but people said the same thing about BTS and BLACKPINK becoming global.

It might not happen, but it can happen. I actually think with APT Rosé has a really nice chance of impacting the charts globally.

 

Unlikely but her interacting with Taylor Swift/Sabrina/Olivia can do wonders. I hope she can get invited to sing at their tour somehow.

Releasing this collab with Bruno was already a huge step for her.

Sometimes, I'm very surprised how popular the BP girls are. People who don't follow kpop and dont even give it  a minute to listen to it when you recommend it to them actually know them and it's always shocking to me. This is the advantage they have over other groups that came after them.

I'm screaming :dies: why do their fanchants always sound like raps @kendoll2001

 


also this song might be one of their few misses for me 

Babes, I was watching Music Bank last night and legit screamed when I heard the fanchant at the end of their performance :dies: they're legit such trolls

Spoiler

And I agree… the minute I saw the "DJ Khalid feature" I checked out… :fan:

 

But I'm willing to forgive them — for giving this Mingyu & Wonwoo moment in the music video :allears:

If anything, I think it'll make the race even more exciting. Hell, nobody would've predicted aespa demolishing IVE, NJ, Lim Y.W., and Idle earlier this year either. :gaycat4:
