    "The Album" is the great collaboration between the K-pop world and the western music wolrd. The line distribution in this album is just amazing, beacuse allows all the girls to have their moment to shine and show us new things about each one; there is no song to skip and this can only be done by: Jennie, Jisoo, Rosé and Lisa.

    ¡BLACKPINK IN YOUR AREA!

    The Album is a masterpiece that encompasses the essence of Blackpink from its lyrics, down to its production. Blackpink has certainly outdone themselves from the song How You Like that until the lyrical and last piece of The Album-You never Know. The Album truly deserves the name of “The Album”. I look forward to more projects that Blackpink will do in the future.

    Crammed chockfull of crowd-pleasing EDM pyrotechnics and cheeky one-liners, The Album is undeniably a product of a well-oiled, state-of-the-art pop machine, but it feels stuck looking back to tried and true trends in both K-pop and Western pop music.
