Music Evaluate: Lisa (BLACKPINK) – New Girl (ft. Rosalía)


Contemporary off the success of her current single Rockstar, BLACKPINK’s Lisa is again with a big-name collaborator in tow. Spanish singer Rosalía makes for a compelling characteristic, herself a genre-bending, ahead pondering popstar who can actually match Lisa’s charisma. And as a track, New Girl is infinitely extra attention-grabbing than its predecessor. Nonetheless, “attention-grabbing” doesn’t at all times imply “satisfying,” and on this case the monitor is as irritating as it’s participating.

There’s a lot happening right here, as New Girl carves itself into distinct, warring segments. Rosalía’s second verse switch-up is just too jarring to work within the context of every part else round it and general the monitor has a tough time benefiting from its varied parts. Up by means of its first refrain, New Girl bops alongside an ethereal, suave groove, hanging a pleasant stability between NewJeans-esque aloofness and trickier textures that really feel extra experimental. Shockingly, the monitor takes a full minute to achieve its refrain, which is just like the size of 5 TikTok movies. It’s a refreshingly old-school strategy coupled with a new-school imaginative and prescient.

However like I discussed, New Girl turns into tougher because it strikes on. Following the tacked-on Rosalía verse, the monitor rights itself however forgets to deliver added firepower to make its second half stand aside from its first. With none actual climax or decision, it seems like we’re spinning our wheels. Even at three minutes, New Girl sounds incomplete. However paired with an evocative music video and fueled by the facility of two superstars, the track will certainly appeal to consideration.
