Dec 19, 2024It’s a record littered with towering pop peaks.
-
Dec 19, 2024It’s an album steeped in balladry and strummy, sad-girl pop, each track a soft unraveling of her inner world. And yet, coming from Rosé – an artist who has long had to keep her personal life under wraps – this stripped-back approach feels nothing short of bold.

Dec 19, 2024Despite all its angst, Rosie has a lightness that makes it an inviting listen. She’s disarmingly honest about any insecurities lurking within, but they’re packaged in charming songs that, at times, have flourishes signaling the fun Rosé had while figuring out her pop purpose.

Mar 12, 2025The firmness of Rosé’s voice shines through on this LP, which is the best and most consistent of these releases.
