Despite receiving mixed reactions from netizens, Lisa has shown that she is more than capable of mastering the stage herself. This is his first solo comeback after establishing his own agency.
BLACKPINK's Lisa officially made a solo comeback by releasing a song entitled "ROCKSTAR" on Friday (28/6). The music video presented by the idol born in 1997 was welcomed very enthusiastically by fans who were amazed at the visuals and the large scale of the production.
However, the lyrics of the song "ROCKSTAR" received various negative responses. Many said that the lyrics didn't match the perfect music video. One of the most criticized lyrics was, "Lisa can you teach me Japanese.
One netizen wrote, "The lyrics are very repetitive and basic. Boredom sets in quickly after the first minute and what's more this song is only about 2 minutes long. I like this song, it's just that the lyrics are not satisfying[sic!]."
Another netizen revealed, "Like the beat, but don't like the lyrics. I like Lisa, but I'm tired of hearing how the lyrics, 'Lisa can you teach me Japanese' are said four times in one minute, [sic!]."
In a more professional perspective, one netizen thought that Lisa prefers production quality over lyrics. "Lisa 'ROCKSTAR'? The lyrics don't match the perfection of the music video at all?[sic!]," said another netizen.
However, there are also those who defend the lyrics. Some people believe that the line "Lisa, can you teach me Japanese" may have more depth than thought. There are also those who think that the lyrics are an inside joke.
Another defense stated that the lyrics were a satire against those who like to equate all Asians. Netizens who defended also said that Lisa's charisma and delivery succeeded in saving the song from the cringe element.
Despite receiving mixed reactions from netizens, Lisa has shown that she is more than capable of mastering the stage herself. One journalist wrote praise by saying, "The increased production of 'ROCKSTAR' is a step in the right musical direction for a star like BLACKPINK. 'ROCKSTAR' has successfully raised enthusiasm for Lisa's next steps in her music career." (wk/charity)
