Is BlackPink Overrated or Underrated ?

K Pop and BLACKPINK 

Every famous celebrity comes across a set of people who hate them at their worst. They try to find out Trifling mistakes in their performances, fame, possessions and even personality. 

K-Pop groups have conquered worldwide fame but at the same time they come across people who judge and criticise them for their appearance, features and popularity. It’s said that the more you are famous, the more the world will arraign you and this is the current case With many k-pop groups. 

 
In this article we’ll specially discuss about the criticism of BLACKPINK . Well everyone knows BLACKPINK, the girl group of 4 highly talented girls. They are not less than legends and have tracked certain records in the global music history. The BLACKPINK era and the after BLACKPINK era is definitely going to remember this amazing girl group in the list of most successful music bands ever. 
 
Why is BLACKPINK so Famous?

 
This Is the most common question asked by blackheads (BLACKPINK haters). According to them there are other groups which deserve the fame that BLACKPINK enjoys. Many people say that BLACKPINK achieved the name only because of its label YG entertainment Which is absolutely false.

 

BLACKPINK released their first album one square in 2016 that is when the 4 of them debuted as a group and fortunately, the song boombayah appeared on the list of billboards which is not less than a great achievement for any artist. 
 
This success brought BLACKPINK in the limelight and International viewers started following them. They loved them and their style as a fandom called the ‘blinks’ became popular. 

Gradually BLACKPINK went on giving blockbuster hits with the variation in music, dance and hard-work thus BLACKPINK became one of the most famous k pop groups and the best girl group in the world. 
 
Why do People Hate BLACKPINK? 

Blackheads say that there are many reasons to hate BLACKPINK. Well, yes there are reasons which the haters have built up themselves. Some of them are too trivial. My YouTube research brought 2 major reasons behind hating BLACKPINK to my notice. First one is overshadowing Jisoo. 
 
Not only haters but many blinks have expressed sympathy towards the eldest member of BLACKPINK Jisoo for getting the least opportunities as a member of the famous girl group. It’s said that Jisoo is not allowed to speak on international interviews because of her poor English. 
 
She is given the least lines in the songs and has never been featured on the album covers of the songs. 
 
Well for those who think it’s true, Jisoo is the only visual leader of the group. She has been featured the most number of times in the group songs. Jisoo is specially loved for her off screen personality. 

Blinks themselves have been admiring her beauty more compared to her voice which indeed makes me feel that Jisoo is actually given less lines because of the audience.
 

While launching the group all the members were given their own titles and Rosé was tagged as the main vocal of the group of course the reason is her voice.

 
I think it’s totally fair and profitable for YG to give Rosé the maximum number of lines. Nevertheless, Jisoo is also Admired a lot for her unique and deep voice. 
The second most famous reason of disliking BLACKPINK is the over popularity of Jennie. 
 
That’s hilarious though because a whole group is judged by the fame intensity of 2 members of the same group. According to BLACKPINK haters Jennie is the most pampered and most loved BLACKPINK member of YG.
 
Well she was definitely the first one to give her “SOLO” and she has also given a number of lines in every song but before judging let’s get back to their trainee lives. Jennie is the oldest trainee as compared to Jisoo, Lisa and rosé.
 
People go gaga over her singing and rapping as well! Her dance moves are another mind-blowing talent she’s got or I should say she’s developed as a trainee. 

When you have an all rounder and a responsible member in the group why would a company select some one else to debut first to show that their girls are actually talented? 

Secondly, why even pose such questions when there is no opposition from the other members. 

Jennie has been facing hate comments off screen and on screen too but she has been working hard despite battling with respiratory problems.
 
BLACKPINK is sophisticated and have a superiority complex is another blame on them. 

High Time That we Recognise Their Talent? 

There are endless of reasons why people hate BLACKPINK and call them over rated but still true blinks and people who respect artists and their talents know what BLACKPINK was and how they carved their beautiful journey and are definitely up to a lot more success in the future.  

BLACKPINK is definitely neither overrated nor underrated. BLACKPINK is the revolution of music industry and they have proved it with every single song.
