Finally, the wait is over as popular K-pop girl group BLACKPINK has released their group album titled Deadline.

Read on to know all about it!

Why Are Fans Divided Over BLACKPINK’s Deadline Title Track GO?

On February 27, popular K-pop group BLACKPINK made their highly anticipated comeback with Deadline. The mini album features 5 songs and some fans aka blinks feel that it does not match the K-pop group’s usual energy and style. Many say it sounds rushed or bland, with empty choruses and weak beats that make it hard to enjoy. The title track GO starts with a nice intro but becomes too repetitive, and the chorus beat disappoints some listeners. They also pointed out that there was new choreography and the visuals feel more like other groups, not the classic BLACKPINK style.

i’m not delusional this their most mediocre album yet, the visuals are good but all song feel like YG rush them, Go had so much potential but the song lacked but the visuals was giving 5/10

The music video for GO garnered extra attention for its sci-fi look. While the visuals look stunning and impressive to many, a big debate has started over the use of AI in creating parts of it. Some fans think the company should have used real artists instead of AI.

On the positive side, many fans love the album. They praise the strong visuals, powerful messages in tracks like Champion, and the new style and beats in songs like Me and My. Blinks see it as a bold step, with the members co-writing parts and adding their own touch and flair. The energy in GO is encouraging, which excites many BLINKs.
