《Pink Venom》 announces BLACKPINK’s return with unapologetic intensity, channeling dominance through a sharp, venomous energy that blends global pop with hip-hop attitude. Released in 2022 as the lead single from the album BORN PINK, the track thrives on contrast—minimalist verses collide with explosive hooks, creating a sense of controlled chaos that feels both modern and ritualistic. Built by hitmakers TEDDY, 24, R.Tee, and IDO, with lyrics by TEDDY and Danny Chung, the song transforms confidence into threat, turning allure into warning. Released under YG Entertainment, 《Pink Venom》 stands as a declaration rather than an invitation, proving that BLACKPINK’s power lies not in excess, but in precision.
