To be honest i feel like they wanted to play it safe with jennie i mean she was the first member to go solo and yes she's popular enough to succeed with whatever concept or style they choose but that was probably it, just in case perhaps. Personally, i'm glad they did, whatever this was it worked, but it's probably just jennie's effect. She'll be a great soloist.

Also, concept in terms of what PD was talking about does not completely mean the lyrics, but rather the visuals in the clothing and MV, and the style of the song. PD was also talking about independence though, which is related to breakup, as one is independent after a breakup.

The beginning is suppoused to represent the sadness after a break up. She's sad and trapped in that luxury mansion and when she breaks the pink bracelet it means she has had enough and wants to break free. The pool represents the tears and she's throwing pages of the diary into it (the diary is her love story. She wants to forget about it). So that's basically the beginning. Then she finally evolves (the washing machine scene) and becomes independet.

a song is a song whether or not it was intended for someone else. we dont know how the song came into fruition. it seems ironic to fixate on this idea that has no basis in fact when there is so much that actually goes into a song. even if these two songs were produced by the same person. however teddy is a professional pop song writer. he knows a pop song formula that works and he sticks to it. there are countless pop songs that sound similiar and get remixed into mash ups and that never hurt anyone.

What does Gashina being a comeback song have to do with anything? If it's a comeback, it can be a played a little safer, it doesn't have to make an impact (although it was insanely popular), Sunmi already had a fanbase. I would say SOLO being a debut validates all the criticism calling it lazy and overdone. Especially from Blackpink. They were pretty refreshing in a sea of cute group concepts, but a girl crush/sexy concept for a solo artist? That's nothing special.

@@managersejinstan1523 It's both the mediocre song and the fact that her voice when both rapping and "singing" doesn't stand out at all. She has no concept of vocal technique, if given proper training she could be something phenomenal to witness. But as is, she's basic (in terms of her voice). You could legit find a hundred of her (voice wise) on a street corner. She needs to develop her voice more. She has a pleasant tone, but it's being overridden by her shouting/breathing into the mic rather than actually singing. Training her voice will allow her voice to shine at its fullest potential. Until then she's going to be stuck having next to no range and completely limited vocals.

Solo is not BAD but it's not GOOD. It is just pretty boring. The song is p nice but not THAT good. It seems nice on the moment but becomes boring and annoying with time because the music is just pieces of many songs we've heard before a little bit of Gashina, Heroine and so on and bam you get Solo. And the MV isn't well organized it's all over the place, sometimes it looks good but here it is pretty patchy and the transitions could've been way better. Plus the fact that Jennie's voice isn't that original when she sings I think she should've rapped more and in Korean. Her voice isn't bad, it's just not something we have never heard before. YG should've done better. He doesn't put enough work on his artists for them to be different and more original than 2NE1 and BIG BANG he just does them over and over again because they worked. I am sad that YG's quality downed. iKon deserve better, and even if I despise Blackpink I gotta admit that even them deserve better.

Also the music video I couldnt help but cringe, it felt like a commercial and her just staring at the camera acting like she’s too good by rolling her eyes etc. nothing genuine.

Actually, I really liked Jennie's song, it's pretty solid. Maybe in the future (when the members would become more confident in themselves), they'll take more risks or get out of their comfort zone (a little more). I really want to see them working with another producer or other people, you know? They're not rookies and they don't need that pamper anymore. The girls have so much talent and I think they should be pushed to a point where they could take everything they can, at least until they get mature enough to compose their own songs. Still, I feel really happy that Jennie has this opportunity, my bias is so talented (":. It would be good to see more activities from the whole Black Pink tho.

I agree, I can't wait for the other members releases, I heard Rose's solo is confirmed, so I'm assuming hers will come when Jennie's release dies down a bit! Jennie is also my bias! I agree with PD, a rap bridge before that dance break at the end would have probably pushed it a little more though!

Personally, I felt the song was lacking a little bit and I agree with you about the ending feeling rushed and how it was just getting good. When I first heard it, I said “that’s it?” But then not gonna lie, it grew on me but I guess they played it super safe so that’s why? But the choreo wowed me more :)

I liked the MV. Seemed quite polished, wasn't controversial in any way, quite fitting for her style. However, I felt the song was a bit lacking and slightly disjointed and somewhat underwhelming. Sound production was top notch and well mixed. For me personally, I would have liked for a more vibrant chorus that didn't center on the word solo. The lead melody while very catchy and tropical felt better used as an intro/outro/bridge/break segment rather than a main chorus hook. A different chorus should have been used that featured a nice melodic hook and lyrics. The structure felt like it was a collaboration between multiple songwriters/composers from different locations who emailed their individual segments to a song producer who compiled and arranged the material into something resembling a song and not something that was planned and methodically processed. Then again, our opinions don't really matter to people within the industry as they follow a very specific formula when it comes to developing a Kpop artist and their music. It will only matter if we have some kind of name or status....

This song just really didn't do it for me. It felt like they couldn't decide if they wanted to showcase Jennie as a poppy vocalist or a chic rapper, so they mashed the two of them together and didn't manage to blend the styles particularly well. The first verse, the bridge, and the pre-choruses all feel like one song. Meanwhile, the choruses and the second verse feel like a completely different song. There's a huge disconnect between those two, at least to my ears. I really wanted to like it, but I just haven't been able to.

Rose is my bias and Jennie did amazing in this song but I'm gonna be a little contrarian here and say I can't WAIT for a Jisoo solo, I'm really excited to see what she can do since she gets comparatively little play in their normal songs.

A month later and I'm still underwhelmed by the song and the concept. Conceptually there seems they're trying to push Jennie's sultry "Boombaya" persona. I think by now we know that Jennie is more than that.

I couldn't help but sometimes feel like YG is sleeping on BLACKPINK 's potentials to become one of the best in the industry . Oldest to the youngest_ Jisoo-Her visuals are needless to say,could even be considered as prettiest. Her base vocal is unique like Yuqi or Taehyung , deep echoed and with proper training,she have the capacity to get better role as a vocalist. Jennie_ As a blink, I somehow feels like she is shouting in some parts .Still,she is stable I guess.Her rap is charismatic yet lacks flow and intensity sometimes. Rosè_Nasal ....I am sorry but I have to agree .Bigbang Taeyang is also like that .Still fans love the emotions and colors she delivered through a song and that's somewhat a impressive characteristic of an artist so. Lisa_Her vocals are decent but really swag and good dancer .Still need to showcase more to claim the title of one of the best .

I personally have grown to really like this song and have even had it on repeat a couple of times, but I gotta admit, right when I heard it the first time it reminded me sooo much of Gashina and it felt like YG was really trying to play it safe and on trend. Jennie is my bias in Blackpink and I think she shines and is strong in every area when she wants to be (vocals, rap, dance) but there could have been so much more done with this track and her talents. Her rap was particularly lackluster for me, it feels like YG knew people would be happy that she was rapping in english so that's all he went with, they didn't bother making it exceptional in any other way. And the dancing seemed pretty lazy as well, except for the end bit. Minimalistic choreo can work very well sometimes but this mostly just felt boring and, like I said, lazy (which I know is something that people complain a lot about with Jennie, she's gotten to be quite lazy with performing and I think that was showing here). I still really like the song and I thought the MV was shot very beautifully (although at times it seemed like a French perfume ad or something lmfao), and I really like Jennie's vocals in this, but they could have gone above and beyond with it and for some reason they chose not to.

I completely agree, I love the song and all but the M/V was quite disappointing. It was lacking a lot of art direction. If I hadn’t turned on the subs I wouldn’t really get it or had known beforehand what it was about. I think they wanted a lot of things happen in 2 mins and plus seconds that’s why it feels all over the place. And when you actually watch the behind the scenes of this m/v, I absolutely felt bad for all the wasted footage that didn’t make it into the cut. They shot a lottttt man.

Idc what anyone else says I LOVE this song. It’s a bop and now I’m so excited for the other solos. I will say I was sad when it ended though, because that ending was lit and the most lit part. I do agree though it’s very minimalistic but if you see the live stage it goes together really good. I feel seeing the dancing and stuff adds something.

Noah fence, but the song is pretty lackluster and it’s really not that impressive. But I expect such from Teddy. Jennie is YG’s princess, and she’s been getting a lot of attention mainly because of ads and exposure with brands, specifically Chanel. I love BP, but lately she doesn’t put in much energy and I hope that YG isn’t too biased with the members because I would love to see their debuts. I think for a start this was ok, but this one was meh. I wonder if people liked it bc they Stan her, or if they liked the song. I also wish they would maybe give Teddy a break...??? Like, maybe he just needs his creative juices to flow bc this one wasn’t it.
