    To my opinion its their best work, we heard their signature style, on pink venom and shut down, awesome sample of paganini, very well fited, but after that they venture them selfs, "yea yeah yeah" takes us to the upbeat 80s with a topic we all strugle, to know if our feelings towards someone are correspended, then we move on to "hard to to love" becoming a solo for Rosé, where I can hearTo my opinion its their best work, we heard their signature style, on pink venom and shut down, awesome sample of paganini, very well fited, but after that they venture them selfs, "yea yeah yeah" takes us to the upbeat 80s with a topic we all strugle, to know if our feelings towards someone are correspended, then we move on to "hard to to love" becoming a solo for Rosé, where I can hear a mix between Taylor and avril, Rosé's voice its always a treat, "typa girl" had am incredible flow, with a hard base, with great cadebce, lets be honest, we all want to be a typa girl, next comes "Tally" although the beat is slow and pop, the topic is one of the most talked amor everyone, and its very eveident in the present day, we just want ppl to stop judging us for what we do and who we do it with. And last "Ready for love", this is a party song, the beat was made to dance to and just let go, and its about to be ready to plunge into falling inlove and wishing for your partner to plunge with you. All in all, for me its great album, the only complain I have is that is just too short, it feels a bit incomplete… Expand

    Big improvement from previous album. My favorite song is yeayeahyeah and hard to love. I like that they didn't rely on beat drops on this album except for yyy, but it was not the usual bp beatdrop. It was more free.

    Born Pink of BLACKPINK - "All in all, "Born Pink" is a perfect album for getting up and going out, joining Beyoncé's "Renaissance" in a pantheon of music that feels designed for celebrating yourself — whether you're single or looking for love or falling into or out of it — and tuning out anyone who wants to bring you down, especially if your greatest naysayers are the doubts in your head."Born Pink of BLACKPINK - "All in all, "Born Pink" is a perfect album for getting up and going out, joining Beyoncé's "Renaissance" in a pantheon of music that feels designed for celebrating yourself — whether you're single or looking for love or falling into or out of it — and tuning out anyone who wants to bring you down, especially if your greatest naysayers are the doubts in your head." from the Popsugar… Expand

    Born Pink représente une nouvelle marche pour blackpink. Et même si ce album semble étranger il nous donne un avant-goût de ce qui est a venir.

    Lo que mas amo del album es la increíble forma en la que las voces de las chicas destacan, realmente me enamoró cada vez mas cuando lo escucho. La letra de cada canción es completamente especial, este álbum es completamente diferente a lo que hemos escuchado durante su carrera

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Comencemos con la canción principal "pink venom" la instrumental es muy buena, sus sonidos e instrumentos que usaron al comienzo y construyen la canción son muy llamativos y buenos, el mensaje que quiere dar es lo mismo que vimos en canciones como "How you like that" algo un poco repetitivo, pero de allí no le puedo pedir más a una canción pop de un grupo pop, la escena de rose tocando la guitarra es muy icónica, la siguiente canción es "Shut Down" la instrumental otra vez encantando, muy bien diseñada, el mensaje es el mismo que en canciones anteriores, pero en esta canción son muy necesarias, dió el mensaje que se necesitaba dar, igual sigue siendo algo muy repetitivo del grupo, "Type Girl" la instrumental es genérica, no tuvo tanta experimentación, suena a la repetitiva formula de Teddy, el mensaje es muy bueno pero sigue siendo la parte dos de "Pretty Savage", la cuarta canción es "Yeah Yeah Yeah, el instrumental es algo básico y genérico, pero fresco y envolvente, te invita a bailar y alegrarte, el mensaje es simple, una canción de amor pop tradicional, en dónde describe los sentimientos y comportamientos que tiene por esa persona, y lo invita a decir si, si está enamorado, "Hard To Love" es la canción perfecta, la mejor del álbum diría yo, pero no me dejaré llevar por mis sentimientos, la instrumental es perfecta, no tan sorprendente pero perfecta, le da el toque que necesito la canción, ahora el mensaje que quiere dar es de desamor, una chica que advierte a esa persona que es difícil de amar y que puede salir herido, muy buena canción, ahora, "The Happiest Girl" una balada que se va construyendo según va avanzando la canción, muy buena, el mensaje es muy melancólico y a la vez motivador, recomendada si te rompieron el corazón, para mí la segunda mejor canción del álbum, "Tally" es perfecto, instrumental muy buena, algo simple pero buena, el mensaje es lo que se necesitaba decir, algo muy cierto y del cual se debe hacer protesta con canciones como está, ahora terminamos con "Ready For Love" básico y genérico, quizás algo muy disfrutable y bailable pero a comparación de las demás canciones, está queda por última, el mensaje básico pop de amor y la instrumental también algo muy básico y genérico, creo que la anterior canción debió cerrar el álbum, en general "Born Pink" es un álbum pop prometedor para un grupo como blackpink, trae cosas de anteriores álbum y experimenta con nuevas cosas, no tiene conceptualismo y en general no se encuentra el mensaje que quiere dar, igual sigue siendo disfrutable para pasarla bien.… Expand

    Their second best album to date, they have been preparing for two years and it was completely worth it! Loved it so much, with many different shades of their personality as a group, highly recommend!

    This album really breaks out of the typical BP sound, It Sound Fresh and new, I never thought they would release an album like this, and IT's GREAT
    The production is on point, the beat are well mixing, their vocal are improved, not much but that enough since they're not really focused on vocal, Jennie and Lisa Rap are great, Rose rock hard with 'hard to love', Jisoo and Lisa Vocal are on    This album really breaks out of the typical BP sound, It Sound Fresh and new, I never thought they would release an album like this, and IT's GREAT

    Blackpink's Born Pink is a very experimental album that brings a bit of everything, Korean sounds, pop sounds, a bit of rock, a melancholic sound, that violin that makes "Shut Down" perfect, it's a very experimental album which deserves Being more known to people, this album is made by the biggest girl group in the world, BLACKPINK.

    This album deserved more songs, more visuals and more cohesion, I would say. Born Pink isn't a bad album, but it's more of the same, it didn't have the same impact as The Album.

    Amo esse álbum mas temos que admitir, que trabalho preguiçoso. Com apenas 8 musicas e com tanto tempo sem lançar nada, a YG teve tempo de sobra para proporcionar um álbum de qualidade e recheado de hits, mas a preguiça falou mais alto e fizeram algo raso, porém, bom. EU como blink gostei das musicas mas senti muita falta de mais!

    The execution itself often falls frustratingly flat, lacking originality and a clear-cut focus. With its limited scope of musical conceptions, Born Pink, therefore, sounds strangely restricted, as if detained in a confined space wherein it longs to escape.

    On ‘Born Pink’, BLACKPINK tread familiar thematic territory for pop music, but the imagery – finding solace from heartbreak at the bottom of a bottle (‘The Happiest Girl’), boasting about being the type of girl you take to your “mama house” (‘Typa Girl’) – isn’t particularly novel, though they have effectively applied a personal touch in the past (see Jennie’s ‘Solo’).

    “Born Pink” is occasionally galvanic, and occasionally iterative. When the group does push into new territory — or more accurately, unshackles itself from familiar ground — it doesn’t leave much of an impact.
