    The Album by BLACKPINK is one of the best Albums of 2020 so far, it has no skips at all. The songs can also have each Music Video because of it's Quality. I love the girls' exquisite voices specially Lisa's rap parts each song. Blackpink deserves more recognition and I'm hoping for them to snatch a grammys nomination next year. By the way, track 'You Never Know' is my favorite song from THE ALBUM.

    I’m not a kpop stan but this album is a masterpiece. Each and every song is catchy, flawless and show the girls’ amazing vocals. How You Like that is a song that does not get old and it’s an absolute bop. Ice Cream is a fun song that definitely cheers you up and makes you feel instantly happy. Pretty Savage was insanely good and well-produced; I can go on and on... I will never stopI’m not a kpop stan but this album is a masterpiece.

I will never stop praising the quality that this album carries. I was shocked at how good they sounded, because this is indeed their first full album. Even a song like You Never Know has the “it” factor and the representative colors of BLACKPINK. My only complain is that it was too short, but I’m sure 100000 people have said that before. I’ll definitely be checking their next album, this is god-tier material. These girls are one of a kind and so talented! No wonder why they’re taking over the world, they’re definitely breaking the language barrier. I’m so happy I get to experience this with them. Expand

    The collaboration with Cardi B was unnecessary and its the worst song on the album, they dont need that kind of generic songs anymore

    Absolutely amazing, it's only 8 songs but The production and combination of different rhythms make it an amazing album, with the classic sound of Blackpink.

    This is the most impactful by a girl group lately. The production, the vocal performance and the visual parts are just amazing.

    This is by far the best pop album released in recent years. In an age where hip-hop, r&b, and disco tracks are the trend right now, releasing an album like this is risk-taking yet refreshing. I applaud blackpink for bringing back pop nostalgia without it sounding outdated. I look forward to their next project which I believe will be better than this one. They always seem to outdo themselves.

    Here there is music for all tastes, it is a tremendous art made with surgical precision

    It is true that more songs would not have been bad, but it is what there is and art is appreciated and one like this will always be.

    Postscript: POWERFUL THAT COLLABORATION WITH SELENA GOMEZ, LA AME

    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.

    The Album showcases their signature style of blending genres and influences to create songs that are just as classically pop as they are identifiably BLACKPINK.

    Overflowing with confidence, Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa conquer each track on The Album with their vocal ability (both singing and rapping) and effortless charm, switching up styles to offer something for every type of fan.
