    The 4 new songs are so good and the remix too. I really like the lyrics of the songs, especially 'Kick it' and 'Kill this love', and the harmony that 'Dont know what to do' and 'Hope not' have. And about DDDD, we know it's a total bop and the remix is ​​too

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Blackpink showed with this ep that their production is amazing
    kill this love has an amazing production, in the drop the trumpets going up an octave and then returning one octave below and dropping the rest of the drop makes you want to jump from how epic it sounds and how excited it makes you
    blackpink proves that with each launch they are exceeded.
    this ep has an edm style that can perfectly be put on at a party and dance until dawn to end with a ballad like hope not while holding your girlfriend's hand
    I really loved this ep    … Expand

    Aunque a algunos haters le duela aceptarlo, el álbum es muy bueno, mejora la distribución de lineas entre las 4, muestra unos ritmos diferentes y apasionados, además tiene una gran canción sentimental, lo único negativo seria poner un remix de alguien ajeno al grupo, no es bueno para la producción y para el álbum en si.

    I really liked it, each song is so different in its meaning but at the same time they have harmony with each other. Everything they do is art

    La calidad lo vale, siempre se tardan en sacar nuevo material , pero es porque exigen calidad. De nada sirve tener comebacks 2 veces al año y sacar puro mugrero. Blackpink ha hecho un buen trabajo y espero sus futuras canciones.

    Blackpink is one of the more refreshing girls group of today. Their sound is a kind of mix between the nowadays american pop and the corean pop. Both have a different style and development.

    They indeed have the best sounds and lyrics of their generation. Seems like all girl groups are doing the same but then BLACKPINK comes to change the game

    Siendo completamente sincera, no entiendo que trataron de hacer, su álbum anterior estaba mucho mejor, en este parece que intentaron seguir con el EDM pero no les salio y lo dejaron como música para tocar en las fiestas de niños en hora loca, no le encuentro sentido ni al ritmo ni a la letra, para mi su mayor error fue intentar replicar su anterior single y no intentar nada nuevo, todasSiendo completamente sincera, no entiendo que trataron de hacer, su álbum anterior estaba mucho mejor, en este parece que intentaron seguir con el EDM pero no les salio y lo dejaron como música para tocar en las fiestas de niños en hora loca, no le encuentro sentido ni al ritmo ni a la letra, para mi su mayor error fue intentar replicar su anterior single y no intentar nada nuevo, todas las canciones suenan igual, espero para la próxima vengan con algo nuevo, no solo un intento de EDM.… Expand

    On their US debut, BLACKPINK offers nothing new musically. Due to the hype, I enjoyed this EP a lot at the time of its release and would have given it an 8 or 9 back then. As time passed, I realized how dated it is musically. The Coachella performance probably did make this extended play more enjoyable, though.

Due to the hype, I enjoyed this EP a lot at the time of its release and would have given it an 8 or 9 back then. As time passed, I realized how dated it is musically. The Coachella performance probably did make this extended play more enjoyable, though. As catchy as the title track is, it's not immune to aging and probably needed one last chorus. "Don't Know What to Do" is another dated EDM offering, although their vocals manage to bring some life to it. "Kick It" might sound like another "Really", but it's probably the only track that gives us something slightly different here, with Lisa getting more singing parts than usual. However, it keeps the fast rap BLACKPINK has in almost every song. Initially, the song might not have a great impact on the listener but once you discover the background vocals, the vocal chops and such, it's quite refreshing. "Hope Not" on the other hand is a rework of "Stay", and not an intriguing one.… Expand

    Not good as I expected. Their previous songs are way better in my opinion! The lyrics is also not good.

    Album stupendo, pieno di canzoni forti e grinta. Hope Not dà quella tranquillità che serve in ogni album e kill this love fa scatenare chiunque quando parte, album ben bilanciato e kick it una delle loro migliori canzoni. Complimenti Blackpink!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The music is a recycle bin. Most of the instrumentals are exact same from there previous mini album. Even the synchronizing of the vocalists is just horrible. When putting it on pause, it’s the best part of the mini album. The way its presence hunts your playlist no one should dare to do that themselves. The only thing good about the songs is the endings. You’ve reached the state of no return after wasting your full 35 minutes to go through the songs. In comparison to Loona the girl group, this is too much of a reach into the western music market. It’s a no from here.… Expand

    The fact that they have something big, and also something so basic of the simple EP and maddening. I see a lot of flaws in their totally basic productions and compositions, except the single music, which draws attention strongly. I hope they have more space, to make something less commercial and totally mature, there are good things within all this but needs to be reviewed when it makes better.

    first of all, who putts a remix on an album? and second, this album is so generic, seems like all songs are the same, nothing artistic

    Le BLACKPINK ritornano nel 2019, finalmente, con un nuovo EP. Quattro sono le canzoni, come il numero dei membri del gruppo, che compongono l'album: esse mettono in luce i loro due colori, il rosa e il nero. KTL e Kick It rappresentano il nero: due track potenti, una accompagnata da tamburi e trombe, l'altra da influenze trap ed hip-hop, nelle quali mostrano un lato di sé più agguerrito.Le BLACKPINK ritornano nel 2019, finalmente, con un nuovo EP.

    DNWTD (edm) e Hope Not (pop, ballad), invece, richiamano il colore rosa: track diverse fra di loro, ma che mettono in risalto le loro abilità canore ed il loro aspetto più dolce e da girl-crush.
    In quest'album le BLACKPINK ci mostrano che possono fare la qualunque.

    Aspettiamo il full album.    … Expand

    With hits this tailored and successfully executed, the group’s roof-shattering popularity comes as no surprise in the least.

    Kill This Love ... showcases a band who are certainly talented but perhaps not quite ready for the next upward arc in the ride they’re currently on.

    Though BLACKPINK can sing and dance with precision, the production of Kill This Love is also weirdly dated, like it was crafted earlier in the decade and then forgotten in a time capsule for five years.
