Is BLACKPINK’s Live Singing Really Good? Netizens Have Mixed Reactions

Lisa recently made headlines with her debut performance at the 2024 VMAs as a solo artist. It was the first time that BLACKPINK’s youngest member had won an international award on her own. Despite not having her group members by her side, Lisa still made an impact. She broke Kpop records, taking home her second moonman trophy from the VMAs in the Best Kpop category.

Lisa’s performance attracted worldwide attention, combining her singing and dancing skills and showing off her incredible stage presence in front of hundreds of international stars. This performance marked her transformation into a global superstar. However, it also sparked some controversy.

Across various platforms, many people accused Lisa of lip-syncing, sparking heavy criticism. While fans defended Lisa by posting footage of the female idol’s actual voice during her performance, some still complained that Lisa used an extremely loud backtrack, even claiming that there wasn’t enough “wow factor”.

The criticism soon spread to BLACKPINK’s live singing ability, as some anti-fan accounts took the opportunity to rehash past moments, accusing BLACKPINK of having a habit of lip-syncing. Many claimed that BLACKPINK’s talent was overrated. The topic of “the truth about the global girl group’s live vocals” became widely discussed on Kpop forums.

Some netizens also brought up Jennie’s past “lazy” performances and criticized Lisa and Jisoo for their poor singing, with only Rosé remaining largely uncriticized. However, these accusations are mostly seen as subjective and biased.

To reach their current level, BLACKPINK had more than just good music and catchy concepts; talent was the key. Anti-fans’ accusations that BLACKPINK rely on playback have been dismissed by most others.
