Even though “Lalisa” features 2 switches for its middle 8, the song never soars or takes off because their arrival has no impact. So you end up with a song which sounds like it should be shifting gears and going places, just for it to never do so. It's as though producer Teddy Park and his team have an idea for a song and go with it in that moment with the intent to build on it, but never get around to doing it. There is something about a lot of Blackpink's material the ladies' solo material which just feels lacking. Calling Blackpink’s The Album an album, when that shit was an EP. YG be far too loose with the term ‘album’. So of course Lisa got done the same way with her debut solo single Lalisa, which YG are calling a single album despite only featuring 2 songs. And despite Blackpink member Rosé having a clear personal musical preference and her own style which is so far off from what we know of Blackpink’s sound YG, Teddy ‘n’ dem chose not to lean all the way into that, and just give us a Blackpink sounding ass song. But even with this, I had no real expectation for her solo material, because I find Blackpink’s material on the whole to be so bog standard. To me, she's the one member who has the clearest role and identity in Blackpink based on the music videos alone.
She has a look that's different to the other ladies in the group. Lisa was a member of Blackpink who always stood out to me.
