For New Zealand Music month, we were able to choose our own artist. I chose Rose, she’s a member of Black pink. Most of us used a template that asked us questions to answer and put in our presentations.
Rose was actually born in New Zealand, Auckland. Yet, her parents were still Korean. When she was a kid, she was raised in Australia, Melbourne. She stayed in Australia from the age of seven to sixteen. Which is approximately nine years. She moved to Korea, Seoul to try and start her music career at the age of 16.
Rose showed an interest in music when she was young. Which led her to audition for YG Entertainment. She can play the piano and has been seen playing it by some of her fans. She can play a guitar and is currently trying to learn the drums. Based on one of her videos, she has mentioned taking drum lessons.
First, It was Jennie who started the group, then Lisa. Soon later, Jisoo joined then Rose joined after her. Roses 1st most popular songs is “APT”, which was a collab she did with Bruno Mars. Her 2nd most popular song is “How You Like That” which got about 1,139,752,943 streams.
Rose really enjoys making pop and k-pop music. The other members of Blackpink (Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa) also enjoy making k-pop music. She has won multiple awards for her music. Such as 2 Asian Artist of the Years, 2 Kids Choice Award and a lot more.
I really like Rose’s music as it gets stuck in my head, even though I don’t really like K-pop. She’s my favourite k-pop artist. Who’s your favourite NZ artist?
