BLACKPINK Fans Share Mixed Reactions To The Confirmation Of Rosé’s Contract With THE BLACK LABEL
BLACKPINK‘s Rosé was confirmed to be signing with THE BLACK LABEL on June 18. A representative from the label shared with news outlets that they have a “management contract with Rosé” that was signed “based on the mutual trust” that they have.
The internet had a lot to say regarding this development, with BLINKs reacting in mixed ways.
Negative
On one hand, a large number of fans seemed to hate the idea of Rosé joining THE BLACK LABEL. They were distraught over the fact that someone so “passionate about music” has signed with a label that is known for artists that seldomly release music.
rosé being the one who’s most passionate about music and she signs to a label who’s gonna do the bare minimum for her while her other members are creating their own labels and singing within U.S. labels… it don’t make sense at all pic.twitter.com/uZJCkpOlHa

Somi, for instance, does not often make comebacks.
They are distraught over the fact that she could be “back in the dungeon” with few song releases.
Rosé girl you're back in the dungeon pls we never thought this would happen 😞😞😞 https://t.co/c9SmrCZxSa

A silly choice, sorry but Rose gonna be in the Blacklabel dungeon like Somi barely releasing music. This says to me she failed to secured a deal with a US label which is sad. I would’ve rather she opened her own label or signed with a different kpop company for solo activities

They even likened it to one going back to a “toxic situationship” that never changes because of how THE BLACK LABEL is a subsidiary of YG Entertainment, Rosé’s very first company.
for those who don’t follow kpop, this is like when ur bff goes back to their toxic situationship right after you told them not to https://t.co/g91VKY0iOP

Positive
On the other hand, other fans reacted more positively to the news. They pointed out that Rosé is a senior int he industry who knows what she is doing by signing with Teddy.
Moreover, none of the fans actually know what is going through her head, and she may even want to have the downtown that less frequent releases with music that THE BLACK LABEL is known for with Somi may bring.
Others are also calling it a “smart move” since she is likely “bigger” than her own company and can call the shots.
So that’s the case of #ROSÉ tbl will be her manager and she’ll do music through others label prolly Columbia records and she’ll have all the power in tbl cuz she’s literally bigger than the company. honestly smart move rosé sorry for failing you I feel so dumb now pic.twitter.com/ooyxvZZZJD

At the end of the day, BLINKs are choosing to trust the BLACKPINK singer while hoping for the best.
i’m gonna need everyone to put their trust in rosé for this, there’s alot coming which is why everything was delayed. i know we’re worried, but there’s a bigger picture to this. i understood yesterday

Maybe this isnt the best label but im going to support Rosé no matter what. Also people are saying “they won’t let her release anything.” Well shes Rosé. She has power. I guarantee she asked for a certain amount of music in a certain amount of time. Shes smart. I trust her. https://t.co/k8VoDTolry
