BLACKPINK’s Rosé releases debut solo album Rosie inspired by past relationship
In The Zane Lowe Show interview (December 4, 2024) ahead of the release, Rosé shared how her previous relationship, which she described as emotionally draining and toxic, became the creative foundation for much of the album’s lyrics. She revealed candidly that writing about this experience helped her process and heal.
The original title for toxic till the end was "The Ex," but she decided on the current title to better reflect the emotional weight of the song.
"That's almost actually was supposed to be called 'The Ex'. We started writing it being like, 'Oh my god, it's about time. We talked about 'The Ex' a bit too much. It's about time to rewrite a song called, 'The Ex'. But then we came up with a better punchline. So we put it in that section and I was like, 'I need to talk about it.'"
