BLACKPINK’s Rosé just shook the music scene with her first-ever full-length solo album, “rosie,” and it’s serving bops like never before. Dropping on December 6, 2024, the album features her viral sensation “APT.” with Bruno Mars—a track that almost didn’t see the light of day. But guess what? Thanks to THEBLACKLABEL’s mastermind Teddy Park, Rosé was convinced to drop it and the rest is history!
Rosé reveals to JoJo Wright that Teddy Park, who produced for her group BLACKPINK, convinced her to not delete “APT.”, despite initial doubts:

In a revealing chat with JoJo Wright on KPOP with JOJO (December 9, 2024), Rosé spilled the tea. She admitted having second thoughts about “APT.” because she felt unsure about dropping a track inspired by a Korean drinking game. But Teddy Park wasn’t hearing any of that doubt, hyping the song up. And he was right! When Bruno Mars joined, a chart-topping bop was created.
The buzz doesn’t stop there—Rosé’s “rosie ” lbum is packed with bops. The 12-track collection features songs like “toxic till the end” with Evan Mock in the music video, “two years,” and “dance all night.” And let’s not forget the previous singles “Number One Girl” and “APT.” It’s clear Rosé is stepping big and it’s just her debut solo era! Can you imagine what’s to come?
