Rico25 8,169 Posted February 28 I mean no disrespect to Kpop and stuff but I think she made the right decision going no another direction with New Woman for instance Her music and videos are much better now IMO, it's not the expected K Pop too massive production 2 hours ago, sunni said: Her music video run has been heavenly That being said this and Rockstar make me think she doesn't know which direction to go yet... these to me are already dated 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lakeemmahottie 2,009 Posted March 1 I never really liked blackpink and found most of their material generic from both inside and outside of the group, execpt for lisa. alter ego is actually a pretty good record, i didn't expect to enjoy it as much as i have! my only issue is the tracklisting, somewhat a common issue nowadays since artists (or labels) keep changing their tracklists at the very last minute (a mess if you ask me). i love born again but it feels like it was just thrown onto the album at the last minute as it wasnt on there in the first place. elasticgirl is probably my least fave but its still a somewhat decent bop. and future was just the perfect feature for futw, landing to be in my top 5. i also love her genre diversity here, she really kept it interesting unlike rose. overall my takeaways from the album are: New Woman FUTW Thunder BADGRRRL Rockstar (extended version should have been on the album) I may check out JISOO's mini album, that doechii collab keeps coming up in my feed and it eats so hard 1 Quote SOPHIE • ARCA • SKY FERREIRA • YEULE • CHARLI XCX • WILL TOLEDO • JAMIE STEWART • CHELSEA WOLFE • YUNG LEAN • ECCO2K • NATURAL SNOW BUILDINGS • EARTHEATER • FIONA APPLE • BJÖRK • ANNA VON HAUSSWOLFF • KRISTIN MICHAEL HAYTER • RICHARD D JAMES • DEADMAU5 • MICHAEL GIRA • LIZ PHAIR • LANA DEL REY • TINASHE • FKA TWIGS • DEATH GRIPS • SNOW STRIPPERS • A.

sunni 961 Posted March 1 For a debut album it is pretty good, it showcases Lisa's different abilities and covers different genres. The concept of multiple Alter Egos to show different sides of Lisa was also pretty cool and gives a little bit of everything. But the concept does lead to a very incohesive record that is definitely pretty messy but the album is held up by endless bops. I do hope for her sophomore album we will get something more cohesive. Lisa isn't a bad singer but her true talent is her rapping and I hope we get more of that in her next album. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WTF Spotify, the sabotage... well... this is because the original pre-save for alter ego was the 12 track version featured on the cd and vinyl. the features for the streaming format alongside born again. it'd probably would have delayed the release IF she decided/the label decided to attach the songs onto a singular format, so for quicker time, distributing 2 new songs (FUTW w Future and Rapunzel w Megan) would be quicker as born again was already released before the digital reissue. That's kind of how distribution works. I hope my explanation wasn't confusing by any chance <3 1 Quote SOPHIE • ARCA • SKY FERREIRA • YEULE • CHARLI XCX • WILL TOLEDO • JAMIE STEWART • CHELSEA WOLFE • YUNG LEAN • ECCO2K • NATURAL SNOW BUILDINGS • EARTHEATER • FIONA APPLE • BJÖRK • ANNA VON HAUSSWOLFF • KRISTIN MICHAEL HAYTER • RICHARD D JAMES • DEADMAU5 • MICHAEL GIRA • LIZ PHAIR • LANA DEL REY • TINASHE • FKA TWIGS • DEATH GRIPS • SNOW STRIPPERS • A.
