Black Pink spoke their minds about the comparison made between them and YG Entertainment label seniors 2NE1.
When asked about the difference between the two groups, Black Pink responded, "We don't purposely try to be different from 2NE1." The girls continued, "It's actually a big part of us that we're compared to 2NE1. We don't want to show a different color than them because we believe they portrayed the color of YG. We also want to show YG's color in our own, unique way."

Black Pink added, "We think it's good for us to follow them as much as we can. When you see their performance, 2NE1 are sunbae with overflowing charisma. We want to be shown like that on stage too."

I don't get it. They're both fierce in their own ways but so far Blackpink is very "I need a man" and cutesy (check: the school girl uniforms...) and just their lyrics aren't like 2NE1 at all. 2NE1 has always been "I am the Best" and "WE DON'T need a man." So yeah I don't get the comparisons.

Well their new singles sound like 2ne1 songs that 2ne1 didn't use, which is not a bad thing but its easy to see why they get compared. Winner and Ikon used a song I saw TOP record way back during Big Bang TV too.

In yo fuckin faces haters/critics, 2ne1 showed ygs colours in their own way and now BP will show us theirs. 2ne1 were super diverse the only concept left is cutesyschoolgurl and 2ne1 already did a phone commercial dressed like that 😂 So of course BP arent forcing themselves to go in the opposite direction thats not meant for them. They will do stuff that gives u 2ne1 feels but still different enough. They rnt "thepretty2ne1 2.0". They are blackpink. 4 MVs, 4 different sounds. For a rookie group thats awesome and i know they will be a hit as time goes on, just like all their sunbaes ❤️💪
