About the Song
《Kick It》 is a sharp, self-assured breakup anthem by BLACKPINK that transforms emotional detachment into unapologetic confidence. Released in 2019 as part of the mini album KILL THIS LOVE, the track strips away lingering sentiment to deliver a cool, restrained groove built on minimalist R&B textures and steady hip-hop rhythms. Written by TEDDY and produced alongside 24, the song captures the moment of choosing self-respect over regret, where love is no longer mourned but firmly dismissed. Under YG Entertainment, 《Kick It》 stands out as a subtle yet powerful statement, proving that walking away can be just as commanding as confrontation.
