Rosé of BLACKPINK is going into a new era when it comes to her music and personal life. Recently, she has been featured in the cover of the special September issue of Elle Korea, in which she has spoken about how she is working on some new music, how she is getting to know herself, and appreciating the small things in life. After the release of her debut full-length album, rosie, Rosé has expressed that she spent her summer in Korea working on some new music. Making music for her now not only means making songs but also knowing herself and finding her own style.
Rosé Says New Music Is Helping Her Discover Herself
In this regard, Rosé revealed that summer has been very important for her creativity since it offers her opportunities to make some valuable memories which can become a part of her upcoming album once created in Korea. It is necessary to note that, according to Rosé, the process of working on an album is very personal.
In particular, Rosé stated that she gains an opportunity to look inside herself when working on an album and discover things about herself which she sometimes does not want to know. It can be said that the process can be compared to the creation of the time capsule that contains her memories. However, instead of merely looking at her past, she seems to try to understand herself and her ideas.
BLACKPINK Star Opens Up About Self-Doubt
"Rosé was also looking back at the last two years and referred to them as an era where she kept challenging her voice." In fact, she claimed that during those years she asked herself whether she was able to trust her voice and trust herself. In the end, she understood that the key to success was to listen to her heart and trust her feelings.
This approach to life has also influenced her attitude towards her weaknesses. Now Rosé is able to accept her weaknesses and embrace her not perfect sides without always hiding them behind some image. It seems that her new music will be related to this point of view. Instead of sticking to some image, she is going to define herself as an artist.

Rosé Is Still Figuring Out Her Artistic Identity
The artist confessed that she is now considering whether she is an artist who focuses on telling personal stories or one who builds a whole world through her music. Instead of being forced to come up with an answer, Rosé said that she is actually having fun with the process. This seems to be a departure from her old attitude towards creativity and gives her an opportunity to try out different things and see what works.
However, her outlook goes beyond the art of music. Having lived in different cities worldwide, Rosé said that her perception of the word “home” has shifted. The artist clarified that she used to consider a home a place but now understands that it could be more about the state of mind. Being able to spend time alone was a critical step for her in this transformation. Rosé confessed that eventually she got used to being by herself and even learned to enjoy it.
Rosé Wants To Enjoy The Life She Has Now
Moreover, Rosé mentioned the change in her perspective on work and leisure time. She stated that she was a workaholic before and saw doing nothing as being productive. These days, she has understood that there is nothing wrong in taking things slowly, relaxing on the couch and taking some time for themselves.
In addition, Rosé has enjoyed herself through simple things like collection of planners and origami. These small pastimes have enabled her to realize that happiness should not be connected only to great accomplishments and career success. There are many small and big pleasures in life and she wants to remember that it is alright to enjoy the life that she is living at the present moment.
Therefore, her interview in Elle Korea gave us the opportunity to get to know an artist who is still developing. As her new music allows her to find her voice, this process helps Rosé to know herself better and appreciate the other side of her life.
Final Take
The latest statements from Rosé have revealed a different side to the singer, as she tries to create a new body of music for herself. Apart from trying to produce a new album, she is currently concentrating on figuring out what her voice is and being happy with herself despite her flaws. It will be interesting to see where her journey as an artist goes in the next musical phase of her career.
