Following the release of BLACKPINK’s highly anticipated single “Pink Venom,” fans worldwide were buzzing with excitement for the group’s first full album in over two years. The release of “Shut Down” further fueled this anticipation among BLINKs.
Concerns Arise Over Album Tracklist
However, the excitement quickly turned to concern when the tracklist for the album was revealed. Many fans expressed disappointment and frustration over the limited number of original songs included. The album featured only four new tracks, with the remaining songs being previously released singles and instrumentals.
This sparked a debate among BLINKs, with many questioning YG Entertainment’s production process and the lack of new material for the group. Fans argued that BLACKPINK, one of the most popular girl groups in the world, deserved more original content and a more substantial album release.
The situation highlighted a long-standing concern among BLINKs regarding YG Entertainment’s management of BLACKPINK. Fans have often expressed dissatisfaction with the agency’s perceived lack of support and promotion for the group, particularly in terms of album releases and solo activities.
This latest controversy has once again brought to light the ongoing tension between fans and the agency, and raised questions about the future of BLACKPINK’s musical journey.
