Data Insight

Born Pink keeps Blackpink's producer-led model intact, with Teddy Park credited across every track and a core writing camp of 24, R.Tee, Bekuh Boom, Kush, VVN, Brian Lee and Nat Dunn from the YG and Black Label orbit. Member authorship is minimal here: Jisoo and Rose share writing credits on the deep cut 'Yeah Yeah Yeah,' while the singles are handled entirely by the production team. 'Pink Venom' was composed by Teddy, 24, R.Tee and Ido with lyrics by Teddy and Danny Chung, and 'Shut Down' pairs Teddy and 24 with a looped sample of Paganini's 'La Campanella.' The record leans harder on the in-house Teddy sound than on the members' own pens.

Born Pink is BLACKPINK's second studio album, released September 16, 2022 on YG Entertainment and Interscope Records. It debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, making BLACKPINK the first Korean girl group to top the chart. The album's lead single 'Pink Venom' broke multiple streaming records ahead of release. Jisoo and Rosé received lyricist credits on 'Yeah Yeah Yeah.' Teddy Park again wrote or co-wrote all eight tracks, with production contributions from R.Tee and Danny Chung.
