K-pop sensation Rosé, a member of global supergroup BLACKPINK, has officially released her highly anticipated debut solo album, rosie. The 12-track project arrives three years after her single album R and offers an unfiltered look into the singer’s personal journey. By adopting “rosie” — a nod to her full name, Roseanne — she reveals a more vulnerable side of herself, distinct from her polished BLACKPINK persona.
The album explores the complexities of young adulthood, self-reflection, and heartbreak, with much of its emotional weight centered on an unnamed “Ex.” Tracks like “toxic till the end” explicitly confront the toxicity of past love, with Rosé delivering a biting line that has already struck a chord with fans:
“I’ll never forgive you for one thing, my dear / You wasted my prettiest years.”
Her words encapsulate both sorrow and self-realization, showcasing her ability to turn personal pain into poignant storytelling.
