July 28, 20204 yr YG back on their bs they delayed it AGAIN juan carlos making me look like a flop blink feels bad man
September 28, 20204 yr So is the album called Lovesick Girls or is it still BLACKPINK: The Album? Either way I'm excited, probably my favourite K-Pop act and they've certainly been making all the right steps this year to dominating globally!
September 28, 20204 yr Yeah, I am unsure of what the album is going to be called. We will need to wait for the official confirmation :lol:
September 28, 20204 yr The term 'title track' is just K-Pop jargon for 'lead single', it doesn't mean it's the name of the album. The tracklist for the album was leaked via Shazam and apparently it's only 8 songs (2 of which are already released ofc) so it's basically just another EP after all :lol: 1. Lovesick Girls (Title Track) 2. How You Like That 3. Ice Cream (feat. Selena Gomez) 4. Bet U Wanna (feat. Cardi B) 5. Pretty Savage 6. Crazy Over You 7. Love To Hate Me 8. You Never Know
September 28, 20204 yr I picked it up from being confused at K-Pop discussions xx (see also: the word 'comeback' literally just meaning any new release no matter how long it has been since the previous one)
September 28, 20204 yr I just don't understand why they are just choosing to use English wrong? There was nothing wrong with the original terms :lol:
September 28, 20204 yr I just don't understand why they are just choosing to use English wrong? There was nothing wrong with the original terms :lol: The terms ‘title track’ and ‘comeback’ derive from Korean culture. They’re the words that are used to describe what Bré has already explained, so I wouldn’t say it’s wrong English per say, they’re just examples of Koreanisms. Anyway I am beyond excited for this. Yeah it sucks that there are only eight tracks after all these years, but on the flip side at least it’s a moderately full body of work [after all these years]. :cheer:
September 29, 20204 yr Yes their social messaging/hashtag style must be very Korean, which is probably why it comes across as quite bizarre to a western user. I remember a recent press release which also was in English but looked like it had never been proofread by a fluent speaker/copyrighter, so English is definitely not their team's forte :)

October 1, 20204 yr The Cardi collab has a snippet floating about Twitter which sounds really promising
October 1, 20204 yr I love the fact that BP is doing more concepts than just the usual "club banger with designer everything": Sour Candy sounded like something f(x) would do and the virtual avatar lyric video was so different for them, HYLT was within their comfort zone, Ice Cream had more of a bubblegum concept, and this looks like they're paying homage to early 2010's K-pop with the visuals, I am SO EXCITED *.* I'm just sad that TWICE is promoting at the end of the month so once again we were robbed of TwicePink interaction :cry:
October 1, 20204 yr I'm so excited to listen to this on by lunch break tomorrow :D Just got an email from HMV to say my physical copy has been dispatched too!
October 1, 20204 yr Is this likely to be the #1 album next week? What sort of sales would you predict for this? There's a lot of competition, I think #1 will be Queen or Bon Jovi
