Rosé (BlackPink) causes a stir, praised for surpassing Lisa and Jennie

Netizens highly appreciate Rosé's new music product in collaboration with Bruno Mars. Many opinions say that in terms of music, BlackPink's main vocalist is superior to Lisa and Jennie.

October 18, Rose music video of new single released APT on the official YouTube channel. This is the first song of BlackPink's main vocalist as a solo artist after leaving YG Entertainment and joining The Black Label - the company of Teddy, the man behind the group's successful hits.

According to AllKpop , APT is the single released before Rosé officially returns to the music scene, with a full album titled Rosie, scheduled to be released on December 6.

APT even more special with the participation of male singer Bruno Mars. The two American and Korean stars not only sang together but also co-wrote the song.

Different from the investment of solo products from Lisa and Jennie, the background of APT confined to a pink studio, two singers wearing the same outfit from head to toe (mainly black and white tones) and some sound equipment such as speakers, drums... as decoration.

The song has a cheerful melody, fast and strong beat, creating an addictive feeling. The images are adjusted quickly and jerkily to match the sound. The choreography is simple, a bit messy but clearly shows the spirit of the song. In addition, Rosé and Bruno Mars interact comfortably, naturally and intimately, which is also a factor that attracts viewers.

Singing is not a problem because both have good voices, strong power and have harmony when combined with each other.

Name APT has two layers of meaning. In English, it is an abbreviation for Apartment. However, it is pronounced similarly to “apateu”, a Korean drinking game. In the song, the two singers play on the words “meet me at the apateu (apartment)”, which means inviting to play apateu, but also means meeting at the apartment.

Like Lisa and Jennie, Rosé's song has lyrics entirely in English. However, the difference is in beauty Australia is where she doesn't forget the Korean element through her name and mother tongue saying at the beginning of the MV.

Rosé’s new music product quickly created a global fever. The MV attracted more than 5.6 million views on YouTube after only 4 hours of sharing. In addition, topics such as “Rosé - Bruno - APT ” and “ APT out now ” entered the top trending on X.

The MV also became a hot topic of discussion on online forums. Most viewers left positive reviews for BlackPink's main vocalist, even saying that APT much better quality than Lisa's solo products ( Rockstar , New Woman and Moonlit Floor ) and Jennie ( Mantra ).

Netizens commented: “Both have crazy voices. The repeat part APT addictive. Welcome back, Chaeyoung (Rosé's Korean name)”, “This is going to be a big hit. Congrats to Rosie. She's probably the less popular member of BlackPink but with this song, her status will be different", "She is the only member of BlackPink who has a real passion for music", "We have heard the solo work of each BlackPink member, I have to admit that Rosé did a great job", "I wish the chorus was tighter because their harmonies drive me crazy. This song would be even better with a stronger chorus. I love it and will definitely listen to it many times. I am glad Rosie invited a big artist like Bruno", "Can't wait to hear her entire album", "This is truly music. She just released a top quality solo this year", "Out of all the solo singles of BlackPink members this year, this is my favorite. Who knew Bruno Mars's beautiful voice would blend so well with Rose?"...

Besides, fans are excited about the chemistry between Rosé and Bruno. They commented that the two artists are cute when together, not only do they have compatible voices but also easily create chemistry.
