I've never been one for K-Pop, but my friend who's a lot more into the genre told me to check out Blackpink member JENNIE's recent non-K-pop Pop/R&B album, and here we are! This was pretty good, I liked the versatility JENNIE shows while bouncing from pop to R&B, and the hip-hop cuts here and there are awesome. Production is pretty damn good, with surprising credits for people like Mike WILL and Dem Jointz that I didn't expect. This is all very enjoyable, and a lot more listenable in comparison to something like Tate McRae's recent album. Lots of talent on display!

my dearest apologies for how late this is but also i'm not actually sorry
