    people love to brainwash themselves into thinking this album is bad just because they don't like the group when is actually one of the best kpop albuns. i love yeah yeah yeah, tally, the happiest girl and hard to love. i love that the members have different vocals and each one of them stands out in their on way, something that lacks off a LOT in kpop. best group to come out of this ****people love to brainwash themselves into thinking this album is bad just because they don't like the group when is actually one of the best kpop albuns. i love yeah yeah yeah, tally, the happiest girl and hard to love. i love that the members have different vocals and each one of them stands out in their on way, something that lacks off a LOT in kpop. best group to come out of this **** industry with similar groups who don't have personality or charisma… Expand

    ‘Born Pink’ might have been the most accurate name for this project. Following the two year hiatus, this comeback has managed to give a new perspective on the groups artistry and future career interests. With the new sounds explored, although this are not technically new and rather reinterpreted, the songs feel fresh and challenging among the rest of the group’s discography.

    In comparison with The Album, this project feels more cohesive and has a clear rhythm. Despite being short, it develops different schemes with a more powerful and fierce first half, and in contrast a more personal and quiet second one.
    Finally, it ends with a neutral tone that keeps you asking for a next part but not in a eagerly way. Rather, it leaves you with a taste that more is on the way.    … Expand

    Every songs has different vibes. Too bad it's has less songs than average album, but the production the production is richer in creativity, they're really putting energy in every single song. I love it.

    The singles (Pink Venom & Shut Down) hit hard. The other tracks are easier to get at the first listen and the overall vibe is positive (except for the happiest girl; hard to love has a happy-nostalgic melody). Two more songs were needed, tho. hopefully they’ll release a deluxe ver or something

    Their vocals are much better than the previous album, the songs have a close connection with each other, and their production is pretty good tho. I mean, I would be totally satisfied if they filled up this album with more tracks. Anyway, this is still one of the best albums of 2022 so far. Congrats BLACKPINK.

    It's too bad for an album after 2 years, they jammed the song just for the full album and we already knew the 2 songs in the album

    BLACKPINK fez todo mundo chorar e festejar com esse maravilhoso presente dos anjos, apesar de ter Ready for love nesse álbum, ele não tem nenhum defeito, as musicas são maravilhosas juntamente com as vozes angelicais das meninas falando sobre depressão, putaria e humilhando os outros, simplesmente zero defeitos

    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.
