"Washed the entire blackpink's discography with this album"— Fans laud Rosé's debut solo album 'Rosie' for its theme & symbolism

BLACKPINK's Rosé officially launched her much-anticipated first full-length solo album, Rosie, on December 6, 2024. The album showcased her versatility as an artist, blending genres and themes that differ from BLACKPINK's usual high-energy tracks. Featuring 12 tracks, Rosie received widespread acclaim from fans and critics alike for its emotional depth and polished production.

The album debuted alongside the release of the music video (MV) for toxic till the end. Directed by Ramez Silyan, the video explored love, heartbreak, and resilience, mirroring the song's raw emotional intensity.

The album featured other tracks, including Number One Girl, 3am, Two Years, Drinks or Coffee, APT. (featuring Bruno Mars), Gameboy, Stay a Little Longer, Not the Same, Call It the End, Too Bad for Us, and Dance All Night.

The new album received praise from fans for its thought-provoking and relatable lyrics. One fan humorously commented:

"rosé kinda washed the entire blackpink’s discography with this album"

Fans also remarked that the album made them emotional as it captured all phases of a breakup.

"Crying cause all tracks are all banger??? did ROSÉ just release the album of the year with rosie," one fan wrote.

"love how the entire album captures the phases everyone goes through during a breakup. The denial, anger, THE BARGAININGGGG, depression, and acceptance," another fan said.

"Not even being biased but this is the best album that I've heard from a kpop idol. it is beautifully coherent, every song is like a chapter, and all those are tethered to write a story. there isn't any skip. she really mastered the art of album making," another fan added.

Others lauded Rosé's vocals and highlighted her kiss scene with Evan Mock in the toxic till the end MV.

"Remember back in 2016 when Rosé had to film the hug scene for the Playing with Fire MV, and all the Pinks were teasing her? Now she has her own MV packed with skinship, even a kiss scene! How far she’s come! BIG ROSIE" one fan recalled.

"ROSÉ's VOICE IN EVERY SONG IS MINDBLOWING !!! SHE'S BEEN KEEPING THIS KIND OF VOICE FOR 8 YEARSS?? FVCK YG FOR HOLDING HER BACK!" another fan said.
