6. "Crazy Over You" is a song that highlights BLACKPINK's unexpected charm by adding oriental sound elements on top of retro hip-hop beats. pic.twitter.com/iVjcQT2aav

It really blows me whenever someone tries to discredit Jennie's talent. Some people often underestimate her, but she never fails to prove them wrong. She's smart, talented, and capable of so much. Her getting credited for her work as a songwriter, and producer is just the start

“Lovesick Girls” has been described to feature a country-style guitar sound not unlike the band's earlier hit "Whistle."
The Album is set to drop worldwide on Friday noon locally.
It features eight songs including "Ice Cream" (featuring Selena Gomez) and "Bet You Wanna" (featuring Cardi B).
