Not saying it will or not for everyone but the hook threw me first listen, probably because of expectations. After a few listens it definitely grew on me to the point where I love it, and definitely falls in-line with the “pink” venom concept. So damn sassy and hard. End of the day, I was entertained. Thanks for your genuine reaction.
same ♡
I think they did this on purpose because when I heard it live, it sounded different with the live band. Like it had a different energy.
Jennie’s flow is crazy🔥
Jennie Ruby Jane ate🤙
Jennie entrance was Homage to Biggie
‘Kick in the door waving the 44’
Lisa paid homage to Rihanna
There is some others apparently an eazy e one, Taylor swift that I didn’t quite catch.
I understand what you mean by the chorus. I agree with you. I did expect a bit more from them personally. But I don’t hate it.
Jennie was a stand out for me.
Looking forward to their album!!
EAZY?
@@user-wv2ly1rl6t Lisa and Jennie's rap part
The Jenlisa rap was backed by a sample of Ice Cube/Eazy-E's part of "Gangsta Gangsta" by N.W.A. Taylor Swift reference is "look what you made us do".
JENNIE went JayZ with 'em bars in 90s and 2000s era wow!!!! 🔥
Like so many I was there for the live premiere and when the countdown hit zero and PV started my jaw dropped and stayed dropped - until the chorus. I honestly didn't know what to think because it felt like the song suddenly deflated then skyrocketed again with the Jenlisa rap lines. Up then down again and at the end I didn't quite know how to take it. I listened to it again and it hit me completely differently and I realized that it was an iconic Teddy earworm that like others have said works like magic. It's the part of the track that I wake up at night singing in my head. This song has pushed Don't Know What to Do out of first place for me and I can't get enough of it. Pink Venom describes this perfectly.
It's weird though, when I first listened to it, the chorus got me hooked. I loved the chorus and how simple the choreo was for that part too, it was very nice. And then everything fell into place. But yeah everyone just has a different taste in music. But the chorus was like A+ for me!
I m glad I m not the only one. I love the hook exactly for the reason they said they didnt like it :) The contrast is exactly what is appealling to me :)
@@greg7506 yes and because the rest of the song was rising up and the beat change was happening, going back to subtle chorus made it work!
@@kianasoleitherivera8048 What is interesting about the chorus is that the audio AND the choreography of the chorus goes hand to hand to stick to the theme of the song (pink venom):
1) the girls swaying right and left create this hypnotic feeling associated with snakes. (and obviously you cannot have a HARD beat drop if you want to convey this sway aspect)
2) the hand movement behind their back reminds the dart of the scorpion.
@@greg7506 yes you nailed it! True!
@@greg7506 omg I love your comment. It gives me a new perspective to the song. This is my number 1 all time favorite song
I liked the song from the start, absolutely a bop, so glad they are back! Can't wait for their album!🔥
The chorus is the addictive part for me. It works like magic. The more you listen to it the more you would love it. I have contributed at least 200 views to the video lol teddy is a genius for making songs that the more you listen to it the more you like it
Would they have gone for their usual bombastic hard hitting hook, everybody would have complaint, that its just the same old formula. Now they're going for something different for the hook (even paying homage to classic hip hop) and everybody complaints that it is to different and not hard hitting enough. Same back when their album released. "How You Like That" got bashed for being to familiar. "Lovesick Girls" got bashed for being to different. Today both are considered among their best title tracks. But with a new release they really can't win regardless of what they do. For me the hook in Pink Venom also doesn't work, but I get and respect what they did there. Its just not exactly my personal taste. Still very happy with the release.
🤷🏽♀️ they hate to see BP be great simple.
Okay okay but just hear me out…..how about instead of a “bombastic” hook, or a lowkey hook…..what about just a good ol’ fashioned chorus? Like….instead of being one hook ponies, someone writes them a song with a chorus with meaningful lyrics or something? Iunno just an idea it’s probably stupid.
@@nicizking their last title track (Lovesick Girls) was exactly that ;-) so why not switch it up for the next?
@@Guthwulf11 I think when 90% of your discography is just hooks and noisy instrumental, using a more traditional song format is still a switch up. Lovesick Girls is the best song I’ve heard from them since D4, and was only underrated and overshadowed thanks to HYLT.
@@nicizking “noisy” thats all i need to know what type of kpop fan you are smhh so tired of yall using that word for everything that isnt some super poppy song my god
Jennie is everything in my heart omg i dont know how much i love her😘 she so swagy 🥵
Jennie Kim main rapper 🔥❤️🔥 love 😍
i absolutely LOVE the hook/chorus. so many people don't lol. i think the hook/chorus is meant to be sexy instead of kiddie. I also think its a nice change from the harder sounds.
edit: this is my favorite bp song :)))
I love the hook/chorus too, it’s one of my fave parts of the song! I think it’s so fun and catchy.
The only part I would change is the ending ratatata part but I love the song overall, I would say it’s one of my fave bp songs too :)
JENNIE ATE🔥🔥❤️
JenLisa raps and Chaesoo vocals are Perfect.
This song and video have been a global smash, breaking records left and right, but yet so many reactors have had to address the enormous amount of negativity in their comment sections. It's obvious that BP has become a very polarizing group, almost from the start. But haters seem to be on an agenda to intensify their campaign. Of course there's no denying that Blinks have also have gotten too spoiled with their unrealistic expectation from the group. Combine the two, then we have a situation where the narrative focuses too much on the negativity. What's often ignored is that BP's popularity still continues to grow despite their lack of material.
popularity doesn't mean everyone is going to like every single song they put out there. chill
BP's music really relies on catchy hooks in their chorus and a bunch of filler words. That's really all there is, which makes sense why people would hate or criticize this song...bc it's the same thing as all the others. It's also the reason why all I see are people commenting on the chorus bc that's evidently the most interesting part of the song compared to all the other parts of the song, like the pre-chorus and the bridge, which are just lazy melodies that sound really awkward; it's just some random vocal line that doesn't make sense with the song.
its not an unrealistic expectation wanting the artists you like to evolve and become more involved in the creative process. especially with a group that is guaranteed success whether their music is good or not (evident when they sell out before the music is even heard). some groups are out here writing and producing their own music, doing incredible full out choreography and yet theyre not respected because they dont have marketing on their side nor movie deals and endorsements to carry them.
@@yaramkg5057
Why isn’t marketing on their side?
@@jbiehl8478 either their company cant afford it, or channels and businesses arent pushing the advertising, eg blackpink has vogue, celebrities, their company, bought billboards, youtube ads etc pushing for them
Lisa's rap flow, cadence, delivery and swaaggg are just fire 🔥
Agree
I see Lisa in the thumbnail and HAVE to click and watch the video. She was the most tweeted member with more than 1.5 million Twitter mentions and most searched member on TH-cam and Google. And you can see why, she owned this. She showed her superior skills as a rapper, her addictive bass vocals with a tribute to Rihanna, and her powerful dance too!
LISA did everything A+ she's insane in this comeback. She showed everything and she nailed each. JENNIE's on fire in this comeback too, love to see her rap and to show she's the main rapper. ROSÉ's voice is so angelic and sooo goood to hear. JISOO's ethereal beauty and great voice need I say more. This is their best comeback for me. Everything's on point. I am so proud of them. So excited for their second album coming this September. It's gonna be insane. 💎🔥
My Pink Queens slayed it..hip hop chill sound
one vlogger pointed out that they took 3 parts directly from the following: Biggie Smalls, Rhianna ,and I think Maria Carey's songs. They didn't even change the lyrics. They only credited Rhinanna.
LMFAO not the “teddy antics” at the end 😭😭
Soo I liked the song. Agreed the Jennie and Lisa rap duo was my favourite part. This is literally my first blackpink song. I got into kpop through SKZ and haven't really vibed with a lot of group's sound, but I liked Lisa's solo project and made a point to look out for any new release from the group. They didn't disappoint me. Was it a song to make me think about deep life issues? No. But it didn't need to be, not every song needs to do that. Sometimes you just want a sassy feel good song and this is the vibe I got from this. I love the visuals of the video. I am not blown away, but I am intrigued and I want to hear the rest of the album. *I guess as I go back into their catalogue I'll see - or hear - how it stacks up to their other releases?
I was like you guys with that chorus...first time but you know what after i listened more times with good speaker and dang that chorus is super addictive and grow on me so hard... it was weird experience to me.. !!!
This song paid A LOT of homage to artists they respect and this song is a grower. I get your let downs and frustrations and obvious choice to veer away from BP but it's okay, you do you.
THE MAIN RAPPER JENNIE IS FINALLY BACK
chaesoo vocal jenlisa rap ! they r so talented and this is a pre-release single the real comeback in september i cannot wait
Kick In the door wavin the coco (biggies kick in the door wavin the four four) she also refers to coco chanel
I bring the pain (method man)
Couldn't get a dollar out of me (lisa referencing her money song
The hook is singing about venom but they're singing it all sweet and innocent like (contrast to the verses going so hard)
Hook choreo is mainly for tiktok/youtube challenge so everyone can dance along.. But i think they deliberately left out the rest of the choreo because they're performing it this Sunday at the VMAS!
It's interesting, I noticed reactors that are first time listeners to blackpink really enjoyed the hook.. And people who have known their old songs are the ones who are not as satisfied with this hook. I think it's good that they are getting new fans with this song!
This is actually my fav BP song. 🤷🏽♂️
I get the homage they were paying to artists they respect and I liked the song itself, the girls look amazing, the sets are so cool, jisoo playing the traditional Korean instrument was awesome. Having said all that - this doesn't show a lot of growth in their music, like if they were a rookie group in their 2nd year then yes but they're not. This song comes up the same as the previous ones and I think we can put that down to Teddy being their main person for music.
2016. Whistle and Bombayah sound different. Stay and Playing w Fire are different.
2018. 4D and Forever Young are different.
2019. Kill This Love and Dont Know What to Do are different.
2020. How You Like That, Ice Cream and Lovesick Girls are all different from each other.
Not sure when people are saying they sound similar, did they forget the other songs or what? The familiarity for me is just their signature sound which every singer should have.
Natasha I get what your saying.
Dame Diddy, you'll quickly forget about the chorus part because you'll be bopping it to the sound of your natural voice anyways after a couple of listens XD. 'Cause I had the same thought with it.
Probably. People gotta remember this is our *first* time hearing the song and sharing our thoughts. It’s not our permanent thoughts in the song.
@@TRCReactions exactly. This is why I think teddy is genius for making songs that stick to your head after a couple of listen
@@TRCReactions Oh definitely. You all have admitted numerous times of not feeling a song and then a couple of reactions later, we find out that same person is now playing that song on constant repeat XD.
JENNIE The Best main rapper the best lead vocal the best dancer the best visual ACE OF KPOP
I really love all the girls and think they’re amazingly talented and beautiful humans inside and out.
But to be honest I haven’t truly LOVED a Black Pink song since their debut era 🤷♀️
I love parts of all their more recent songs but none as a whole.
But they always have my support.
I always love you’re reactions. Great to see ThT you’re honest with your reviews. Initially I had same thoughts about the song but I’ve literally listened to it like a thousand times so I’m obsessed now. It definitely grows on you
i am with those who actually like the beat drop...when i first watch it im jamming i love it..i am so glad they did not went the formulaic beat drop instead they went " nah honey, im gonna tease u a bit, slowly and punch u hard at last" i tot its brilliant, making the song different and a bit special in kind of way since u already start hard, with the blackpink chant, jenny intro and singin lisa...it balanced it all out...i tot the song was perfect.
I’m not a huge fan this, but I think it listens better on its own than with the MV. I think it makes sense as a B-side on an album, even maybe as an opening track with that chanting in the beginning. And I’ve definitely caught myself singing the chorus out loud a couple of times since the release! If it’s one thing that BP does well, it’s making earworms
My only criticisms about the song is the chorus (lyrics wise) and the ending. Overall, the song was cool. We’re in a TikTok era now so a lot of artists, not just BP, are creating dances/songs that are great for TikTok and Pink Venom gave me that impression, especially with the chorus.
Yo i must say that this is the most honest kpop reaction channel out there
"its tedy formulaic" big yup
I think the hook is a grower. It's not hard as the rest of the song but I think that's what they were going for . The hook is their "pink" side of their concept while the rest of the song is the "black" concept. Sort of like an anti drop but not totally an anti drop if that makes sense
I agree. The hook in the chorus didn’t grab me right away but it did grow on me after a few listens. In “how you like that” the verses were pink and the chorus was black. In this song, it’s reversed with the verses being black and chorus being pink. I understand why they went this way because if they kept repeating the same formula all the time people will eventually lose internet in their music. I noticed after watching several other reaction channel reviews of Pink Venom is that the channels who have never listened to Kpop before did not have issue with the chorus. It was mainly the channels who have been Blackpink fans for a long time that had issues with the chorus. I felt the same way when I first heard “How you like that”. I didn’t like it at first because I was expecting it to sound like “kill this love” and “ddu” but after a few listens it became my most favorite song of Blackpink. And after a few listens of “Pink Venom” it is now my most favorite song of Blackpink. And I’ve literally watch this music video over a dozen times now. So the producers know what they’re doing. And I’m really excited in what comes out next from Blackpink.
thanks for the honest reaction! I think many ppl were taken back by the chorus bc it's dif from what ppl expect from bp but like many have said in the comments the chorus is def a grower and really catchy. I think this song is a perfect pre-release hope to see you guys react to the main title track !
Pretty interesting you pointed out that the chorus sounded childish, but that’s to please those who sound innocent but are naughty at the same time😆 They had to please the listeners in different angles lol.
I knew I could count on you guys to be honest a lot of what you all stated I agree with
They paid homage 2 lots of 90s hip hop sounds. Love them!
I agree with the hook part, it was a let down for me personally
Great Reaction The Report Card! BlackPink mellowed out the drops for a reason! They are doing a TH-cam Shorts Challenge for fans to do their version of that part! And I think they will choose a winner! And Jennie told us that Pink Venom is just for fun and not for breaking records OOP's!
OMG YES AMAZING
I knew youd be honest with this.
Jenlisa rap on fire but i love OT4 so much 😭🖤💖👑✨🔥
Talking abt the hook it's 50/50 either you love it or hate...at this part they tried to play off... everybody wud expect a crazy drop but then u hear that...they got u... we knw their taste obviously they wud have processed a lot before any decision,for me it's very catchy and addictive...it's just fine!
There are Blinks who like 'Crazy over you' and who don't.
Those who love this song (myself including) definitely like 'Pink Venom' as well. This is all we wanted, another classic Blackpink banger with unique sound, especially in low frequencies.
Those who don't like Pink Venom most likely they don't like Crazy Over You too. Most of them probably listen Blackpink music on laptop speakers.
Those who like PV but don't like COY they should give it another listen. They may find out why many of us call Crazy Over You the best song in The Album in terms of sound production.
Another way to describe Blinks is those who listen to kpop and who listen to Blackpink only.
Someone should make a venn diagram out if this 😉
Me personally I'm Blackpink only and everything related to these 4 ladies. Also like K/DA (all songs but one). NMIXX sound is very promising. Recently I'm listening only instrumental versions and some good mashups and remixes. I wonder if there are more people with similar profile as mine.
🖤🎧💗
The hook definitely is a grower, I actually really love it now than the first time I heard it
The song pays Homage to many artists but also has sublimal messages to haters and other girl groups I seen a video that breaks down everything jennie rap at beginning was biggie small line
the structure, style and the vibe is like KILL THIS LOVE and HOW YOU LIKE THAT. No diversity still TEDDY's style.
I love The antidrop chorus it brings another version of them
loved it FIRST LISTEN dancing to it is j so addicting
jennie Kim, wearing a black ManU shirt, is main rapper and queen
What I like about you guys is you are always honnest. I didn't liked the chorus too but not for the same reason: I found the "get 'em get 'em get 'em" doesn't fit in. But I really liked the rap parts
the hook is the best part IMO.
I was wondering where I heard that "one by one and two by two" Pon de replay.
Well I like the video and their fits....especially Jennie. I like anti-drops normally. I don't dislike it.
The song isn’t bad. MY PROBLEM (my own opinion) is the chorus feels empty. And I don’t mean with the music. I mean the lyrics. It seems like they could have reworded it and made it more dynamic even with the same beat. Like these girls are powerful. With the title they could have done better by them
I like the chorus, and the song in general. But I like the rap parts far more than the vocal lines. 1080p with the snake reference. If it's a python, does that mean it's going to slowly strangle you? And you'll realize you love it in a few weeks when the hook suddenly pops into your head?
Probably. Lol

thank you for the reaction guys i love your videos
Personally, the part that disappointed me was the final stretch and the closing (the "ratatata") I think it was unnecessarily long and could have been better 🤔 but still i really liked the inclusion of the Korean instrument gayageum, also that Arab/Egyptian sound that is heard in some parts and finally the fact that Jennie participated with Lisa in the rap also seemed very successful
👍🏻
asking blinks or any fan in general know if BP is coming out with another MV? I read somewhere in a comment saying they’re releasing a 2nd one but haven’t heard anything else.
Yes, they'll release another MV with the title track on Sept.16th.
Korea..BTS..BLACKPINK..SOHYANG..
I think that the hook was made in purpose like that, telling us to taste it with that sweet voice, Teddy knew what he was doing. And it was nice change, their hook it's usually made in a strong voice(D4, Hylt, etc.). It can't be liked by everyone but as BP's members said, this song represents them, honestly, Teddy is like another BP's member
Love your comment!!!!
@@tanelijah1 😘
you have to listen to the song at least 50 times to appreciate it 😭
I can't believe I'm defending this since I don't really like the song, but I kinda liked the pared down chorus. It puts more focus on the verses. It's even more apparent that the chorus isn't the main part since it's only repeated once, which is pretty unusual.
I like the rest of the song, but the chorus still doesn't hit for me after several listens. I agree with what Dame said, it feels a bit too cutesy in a way that drives me away from a lot of 4th gen kpop, but the verses are fire. Their albums always have some gems, so I'll be there for it.
I don’t think it’s cutesy at all, it’s really sassy! It really shows what they meant by “pink venom”… for me I think is a strong chorus but in a sassy, chill way lol
I'm with you guys on this one. the chorus was kinda disappointing for me. Jennie and Lisa's part was amazing.
Let's not forget rose and jisu came in with with a vocals team attack as well.
JENNİE İS BACK😍😍😍
Are you guys going to attend another BP concert like last time?
I am
👍👍👍
For us younger people we love the hook
When I first listen to the hook. I was the same. I wasn't feeling it but it was different from all their other hooks especially the tone Jennie and Lisa decided to sang in. It was different. To me the hook has to be listened to multiple times for you to start liking it, and start singing along with it.
finally main rapper jennie she deserves to rap more
I think one of the things mainly about the editing of the video I don’t see anyone mentioning that bothered me is how many cuts it has. You have almost no time to take anything in, especially the choreo because it cuts every half a second or so. I enjoyed the video but man that editor could layoff a bit I feel.
Fun fact: Jisoo really played that instrument called "Geomungo". When she was in her middle school, she was in a traditional percussion club.
Amazing song
I wouldn't call the hook childish, I would call it simple. I think that they didn't want the hook to go as hard as the rest of the song because that section of the song is now a dance challenge on TH-cam. As far as the choreo goes we really only see it for the this that pink venom part which wouldn't be that strong since they would want everyone to be able to do it because of the challenge.
Hopefully you guys will react to their song Ready for Love at some point.
Definitely not childish, I actually think it’s a strong hook, but in a chill, sassy way. I loved it since the first time I listened to it! You can really see the ‘contrast’ concept of BlackPink through the song. I feel like the whole song (besides the hook) is more to the strong side, we have even guitar sounds, a strong rapping part but then the hook exhales sassy, spicy, venomous female energy… it’s chill, but also strong and feminine. All of that encompasses the BlackPink concept.
I agree. Chorus was designed to be simple amd feminine because anyone can just relate and dance to it. I also see this new song as a unique way to tell everyone that blackpink can do everything and they can still surprise us with any transitions. Maybe they were thinking that we already predicted what it will sound like so instead, "nope its not" and that is okay. For me, this song keeps me dancing and very timely since this is the era of tiktoks where even kids or adults are joining in. This is relatable.
The hook is soft and the rest is hard because that was the point of the song. That they have 2 sides. Pink versus Venom and Black versus Pink. Also a Pre-release is for the world to see some who have never heard of Blackpink. That's why they blended many genres into one. They're basically showing off their range.
is blackpink all about the drop now? man
Childish is an exaggeration but i like the simplicity of the hook actually the rest of the song is goes crazy the song needed it to be honest
I’m pretty sure the hook threw off everyone at first. Just like you guys said, it’s not expected for blackpink to have a minimal/empty chorus. I like that it was different tho, otherwise people would just complain about how it’s the typical Teddy copy and paste formula.
Lisa❤
This is a homage from Teddy and the girls to what influenced them to wanting to become artists. I got up to see it drop and I have never done that and truth be told I wish I hadn't. It took me 3 listens to get the chorus so I just listened not watching the MV and it worked that chorus is actually very well places that is why BP are so successful they never do what you think they will do.
Jennie quoting Biggy Smalls was on point and as for the swing the coco the actual item you saw is the most expensive item you can ever own by Chanel. The red carpet is obvious she is nicknamed human Chanel.
Lisa everyone knows that line came from RiRi and pon de replay. However the following line makes no sense can't get a dollar outa me. Is from 50 cents. The thing is pon de replay was released in 2005 blackpink did not launch until 2016 but with the girls using it the track has now got new fresh ears and my daughter who doesn't know Rihanna has now bought the original so instead of people accusing them of appropriation when it is inspiration and appreciation.
The line from Rose look what you made us do is from TAYLOR SWIFT.
The entire song is a an appreciation of what they love and Lisa is well known for living the old school style and vintage clothing
There is references right through the song to BIG BANG to 2NE1.
This is a pre-release which means it is a B SIDE and it has this much of an impact. Then the follow up is a doozy
Can’t take my eyes off of LISA. Such a great performer.
Pls reaction of Blackpink “Sure Thing” cover😊❗️
Yg needs to find better writers because black pink is a talented group of girls and yg gives them meaningless songs with no substance. If I waited two years for this I'd be upset. The girls are too talented for yg to do them like that. The video itself is cool but the song itself is just meh.
So good fam.
jennie ate
The song is pretty good in a lot of parts i just hope they could write something in other than ratatata.
Yes Im not really a fan of the song
The chorus is not my taste and the last part with ratatata too, but the video is really great and I love the girls
hEY GUYS ! long time no see !
🤟🏾
The whole concept of Pink Venom is the nexus between soft and hard (like Blackpink itself), hence the hook is delivered softer in contrast to the harder verses. Please listen to the song again with this context.
I'm happy for their fans and all, but if I waited two years for this I'd be infuriated.
The chorus did sorta grow on me but man..Ace saying 'IM NOT MAD' and his face kills me. Im so confused...I see what they were trying to do but like..it didnt come across well. the Anti drop didnt work properly for me-thats my opinion though.
