Lisa&#8217;s debut album features a selection of interesting songs with a lot of instrumentation and loud bass sounds. I see some inspirations from Blackpink throughout this album, with new elements as Lisa tries to establish her own sound amidst a cathedral of modern sounds, featuring some slower, laid-back, and deeply meaningful lyrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enjoyment of each song:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Born Again \u2013 9<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rockstar \u2013 9<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elasigirl \u2013 8<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thunder \u2013 8<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New Women \u2013 9<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FXCK UP THE WORLD \u2013 9<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rapunzel \u2013 9<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moonlit Floor \u2013 10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I&#8217;m With You \u2013 10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BADGRRRL \u2013 7<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lifestyle \u2013 7<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chill \u2013 9<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dream \u2013 10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FXCK UP THE WORD \u2013 7<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rapunzel \u2013 8<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the standout songs on the album for me are &#8220;Moonlit (Kiss Me),&#8221; which has a nice, calm dance feel underlined by a beautiful love story. &#8216; Dream&#8217; is also another standout for me, a much slower and simpler song than others in terms of instrumentation, but all of this makes for a tear-jerker of a ride throughout the song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The collaboration between Lisa and Tyla in &#8220;When I&#8217;m With You&#8221; works well, with both artists complementing each other very well. Other collaborations on the album, such as &#8220;Born Again&#8221; with Doja Cat and RAYE, as well as ROSALIA, Megan Thee Stallion, and Future, are alright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am not quite sure of the need for the Vixi solo and Kiki solo versions of FXCK UP THE WORLD, AND Rapunzel as I don&#8217;t think there is enough change to warrant a new song. I do believe the Megan Thee Stallion feature on Rapunzel is undoubtedly the better song than the solo one. Megan can add another element to the music with her confident, powerful flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Alter Ego is a solid debut album by one of Thailand&#8217;s most prominent stars, featuring notable collaborations within the industry. Ultimately, Lisa is still trying to determine which direction she wants to take musically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6.8<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blackpink member Lisa releases her debut album, Alter Ego, after the success of her previous solo work under Blackpink&#8217;s label, featuring &#8220;Lalisa&#8221; and &#8220;Money,&#8221; which have garnered 600 million and 1.3 billion views, respectively.
