Going by the success of “Pink Venom” and the buzz already created for Born Pink, this album is sure to set some new records for the band. “Shut Down” is a hip-hop song which has the band catchphrase, BLACKPINK in your area, along with some stunning visuals and upbeat music. The most popular all-girl K-pop group, BLACKPINK, finally released their much-awaited album, Born Pink, along with a music video of the song “Shut Down” on 16 September.

The Blackpink girls are well and truly the most admired and loved K-pop female entertainment squad that we have in the world at present.

All of them are seen jamming and feeling the happy vibe in their new video and we love it for real.

It is their first record in two years — and faces the arduous task of following hit debut 'The Album'

Although the shows are not until January, the new album has given fans plenty of new material to get excited over until then. The Happiest Girl, the sixth song, is an emotional ballad that’s in English and features a soulful chord structure with light piano backing — something much different from the Blackpink fans are used to hearing. In the video, Blackpink make references to other music videos while singing: “When we pull up you know it’s a shutdown.” The song shows off her powerful vocals that prove why she was able to also have a successful solo career while the group took a hiatus between albums. It is the highest-selling album by a Korean girl group and the first to sell more than one million copies. Many fans have commented on social media that the track makes them nostalgic for an earlier time with its light but upbeat vibes, different from the more athematic tunes we’re used to hearing.

The tour will start in Seoul, South Korea, before bringing the group to the U.S. Through November and December, BLACKPINK will be in Europe, and in January, the band will go do several concerts in Asia before heading to the UAE, Australia and New Zealand. Their constant support always inspires me to aim for the better," she said. "We try to bring out the best outcomes by discussing our thoughts on music videos, outfits, choreography, and even the littlest details such as hair colors." Overall, the K-pop group's newest album is widely received, and fans and music critics are wondering if it has the chance to set a new record on Billboard's Main Album Chart "Billboard 200." As of now, only male K-pop groups have reached the number one spot, including

BLACKPINK spotlight vocals, bite at haters and flex over innovative productions on second full album 'Born Pink.'

The track represents not only the group, but personally connects with people from across the world. The production also blends hip-hop sounds with a traditional Korean instrumental geomungo (played in the accompanying music video) that sees the quartet representing their home country in multiple ways. We want to hear more from songwriter Jisoo and anticipate that anything she writes for her forthcoming solo project will be equally dynamic. What is it that I keep remembering?”) but ultimately want a crush to “just say yeah yeah yeah.” The bouncy, soaring dance breakdown in the chorus has us expecting this one to be a true highlight if the girls perform it on tour. Their beauty isn’t for the pleasure of anyone but themselves. Rosé opens up with the chorus, “I say f–k it when I feel it / Cause no one’s keepin’ ‘tally / I do what I want with who I like / I ain’t gon’ conceal it,” which feels comparatively revolutionary in the ever-safe K-pop scape. Six years into their careers, the ever-innovative BLACKPINK knew they needed to deliver something to shock an increasingly expanding and demanding fanbase. A reminder of the star’s true vocal prowess was previously seen in her excellent two singles, “On the Ground” and “Gone,” released last year, making us hungry for her next solo album. Instead, what stands out here are some of the group’s iciest lines to date: “I bring money to the table, not your dinner/ Both my body and my bank account could figure,” Jennie purrs on the first verse. Listen up for… Still, we know the girls have more in them than “Ready for Love” shows. Quickly, the quartet consisting of Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa created a global buzz among music fans wondering what they would come up with this time.

Blackpink Are Bold & Self-Referential On 'Born Pink'. The Pinks make the most of a scarce eight-song tracklist — but do they owe fans more?

For that reason, "Hard to Love" — a surprise solo entry from Rosé — is also a cathartic standout. Pop-rock hybrid "Yeah Yeah Yeah" is one of the album's high points. The earworm is a torrent of different melodies and sounds, from West Coast rap (the opening chant of the group's name mimics the drawl on Snoop Dogg's "I Wanna Rock") to anarchic EDM to the hypnotic plucking of the geomungo, a traditional Korean zither. The previously-released PUBG Mobile promotional song "Ready For Love" feels like a throwaway, as does the snoozy "The Happiest Girl," though that track provides the album with its sole piano ballad. That brand is best conveyed on the album's pre-release single, "Pink Venom." In the time since, the fierce foursome from YG Entertainment — Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa — have quite literally taken over the world, so much so that in the visual for the group's latest single "Shut Down," off their sophomore album Born Pink, Rosé finds herself back atop the globe in the same relaxed position.

Nearly two whole years after their first full album The Album, K-pop sensation Blackpink is back with another LP, titled Born Pink.

As tracks tend to blend in with one another, there’s just not enough to keep the listener well-fed and satisfied. They stay true to themselves in all facets of the record, showcasing both their pink and their black sides with grace. With each having merely eight songs, both records are over in the blink of an eye, and do not give listeners enough to go on. Last for the new tracks is Tally, a pop song with hip hop elements and a crisp guitar tone that gives it a more rock feel. Having Born Pink sign off with that out of all songs feels disappointing and anti-climactic, almost like receiving socks as a Christmas gift – it’s not bad per-se, but in your heart you expected something better. The gloomy and dark nature of the song is nicely complemented by the members’ brilliant vocals, who manage to well-translate the sentiments displayed in the lyrics. However, the refreshing guitar tone mixed with the bright vocals brings the production to a more refined and interesting climax, making it one of the stand-outs on Born Pink. And if you ask me, that’s where it should have stayed – on PUBG, away from the albums and away from us all. Switching gears in the record’s sound-lanes, we have a pop moment infused with retro synths and with a production reminiscent of 80’s music – Yeah Yeah Yeah. It doesn’t overpower the track, but creates a conspicuous underpin that keeps the main body of the song moving in the right direction. Continuing the saga of Blackpink songs that feel extremely Blackpink, we have Typa Girl, a trap/hip hop b-side on a unique organ motif with strong lyrics and an even stronger beat. But even aside from its catchy quality, the track is very interesting and intriguing, particularly production-wise.

The girl group's sophomore album hits all the right notes. The only thing missing is evolution toward the potential they've always had.

The scenes have been drained of color and recast in black and pink, to underscore them as key iconography of Blackpink’s visual universe. Blackpink has not been given the agency to evolve in nearly the same way, though they are more than capable of it. Still, I found myself listening to the album thinking, “After so much time, how do they still sound the same?” Lisa, Jisoo, Jennie, and Rosé have traveled the world and have surely experienced their share of pain, loss, joy, and melancholy. As Blackpink has become more of a brand than a band, their [musical evolution](https://time.com/5859277/blackpink-how-you-like-that/) has stalled. The track “Ready for Love,” for example, was released as a collaboration with gaming heavyweight PUBG before appearing on Born Pink, and a Los Angeles pop-up store celebrating the album is co-branded with Spotify. “Ready for Love,” the PUBG collaboration, rounds out the album as a straightforward dance track without adornment. [Blackpink](https://time.com/5562946/blackpink-k-pop-everything-to-know/), glitters with all the beguiling elements that made the quartet the [biggest girl group in the world](https://time.com/collection/time-100-next-2019/5718842/blackpink/). Rosé’s “Hard to Love,” a strange addition as the only solo track on the album, is still a solid pop-rock bop. “Pink Venom” sweetly threatens to inject “pink venom… The quartet has fewer than 30 songs to their name, and the tracks on Born Pink account for just eight of them. [declared](https://www.google.com/search?q=vogue+no+one+loved+Blackpink+more+in+2021+than+the+fashion+industry&oq=vogue+no+one+loved+Blackpink+more+in+2021+than+the+fashion+industry&aqs=chrome..69i57.2206j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8) that “no one loved Blackpink more in 2021 than the fashion industry” and on Born Pink, that love is mutual.

Why? Because the group's sophomore album highlights the essence of Blackpink. The band's prerelease single Pink Venom opens the door to its wide musical palette ...

The Happiest Girl is the only mellow ballad song and offers a glimpse into the band’s devotion to love. Lisa and Jennie’s raps perfectly blend with Rose and Jisoo’s vocals, instantly making you want to dance along to the rhythm. The album suddenly changes genre to modern hip-hop with the rock-based track Tally. Similar yet different to Yeah Yeah Yeah, the track is also – as corny as it sounds – about love. It’s a mixture of the old and the new – the blend of classic and trendy hip-hop beats, to be specific. In the second verse, Jennie and Jisoo’s ping-pong of low and high notes seem like the two girls are eager to show that they are “that type of girl” that can put men under their spell. But the four-piece act proved that it doesn’t take too much to make it into people’s playlists. It’s a sophomore effort of the band’s Forever Young. Like the name of the titular track Shut Down, Blackpink kicked down the walls, inviting people to revel in its girl-crush charms. Like how Jennie said, she hoped the excitement of the band’s first impression of the track would land well with people, and it indeed did. The retouched version of Niccolo Paganini’s La Campanella starts with a thin violin tune and builds up with frenzied and heavy hip-hop beats. The song starts with Jennie’s roar, followed by Jisoo and Rose’s vocals and Lisa’s blazing fast raps that add to the tension, racheting up fans' expectations.
