Shepard, promise me you'll tell them to subscribe for a free content. Now, ladies and gentlemen, over here at Notorious Mass Effect, we put immense respect on the K-pop community. So when it comes to my coverage of Black Pink, safe to say not only are we about to get into the latest member that just dropped a single, but I've covered the entire group as far as Black Pink, and I've covered the solo artist specifically,

dating all the way back to June 23rd, 2023, when I got into the weekend and Jenny from Black Pink's track, one of the girls, which I still say to this day, is one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard for a TV show. But there's a slight caveat. As when it comes to the TV show, no, I mean, I got to keep it eight more than 92 because when it comes to the TV show, safe to say,

it's not that high quality. I kid you not. You guys. See, that's the problem. Now, obviously, I'm talking about, a plot perspective because as far as the cinematography, the choreography specifically coming from Jenny, I think she did some heavy lifting when it came to the choreography to the point where that actual show was highlighted for Best Chorography and a TV show.

So when it comes to me enjoying the soundtrack as my favorite of all time as far as for a particular TV show, that is where my praise stops for that particular show, The Idol, from the weekend. But anyways, I went on to cover Black Pink entirely. August 25th, 2023 with their album, The Girls. And then, of course, I continue from that getting into Jenny again. We talked about Jenny a plethora of times on this podcast. And then, of course, we continue with Jitsu putting out Blissu.

January, well, I covered that, January 10, 2024. And then I went into my coverage of Rosie, December 6th, 2024, with her self-titled track album Rosie. And then, of course, I talked about the Black Pink group again, multiple times, multiple times as far as jump, go M slash V. Basically, ladies and gentlemen, when it comes to Black Pink, you're definitely looking at one of the biggest connoisseurs of this particular group. So the reason why I start off like that is because when getting it to Lisa and her latest

single, that is Swaddyka, basically, that is a polite tie greeting used by women, and it means hello, hi, a welcome. You know, I mean, only over here at notorious mass effect, do you get those type of fun facts, you know what I'm saying oh come on Drewski that man always coming out to cut with it now you don't have to do all that but definitely make sure to rate this five stars so anyways getting it to Sawadika specifically uh ladies and gentlemen after i tell you this stat i'm gonna show you the actual video because i don't think you're ready for what you're about to see analytic dreams video on spotify to see the video along with the audio because not only is

swadika the 10th most watched video on youtube not only that But ladies and gentlemen, look no further than what you are seeing right now because Swadika currently has 161 million views in 10 days. I kid you not. You cannot make this type of engagement up to the point where when looking at it is keeping a strong hold as far as YouTube specifically. And of course, it's number one in a plethora of places like Denmark, Hong Kong, Ireland, Malaysia, Norway, New Zealand. and you come to realize that the notorious mass effect is so apparent via the internet. When having tools to be able to look at people's notorious mass effect, if it wasn't for the internet, I think people will still be oblivious

to the amount of genres outside of their norm that is notoriously affecting the masses. As of course, you have BTS that had the biggest first week sales of the year of 2026 with our album, Arvary Ring, that sold 630-something thousand first week, which is number one by far. And then you have other artists such as Jenny from Black Pink. You have Lisa from Black Pink. Of course, you have Rosie and Jitsu as well. But I think 161 million views is so blatant that K-pop is rising in the fandom.

And I think it's due to the internet, but also people starting to realize the amount of effort and practice that is put in from a lot of k-pop artists as far as a choreography standpoint, which is on full display to the point where they have a whole performance video. So if you go to the actual Lisa's YouTube channel, as you can see right here, she has a whole performance video. Now, of course, I'm not going to play it for copyright reasons, but basically I'm just letting you know that the emphasis put on choreography,

especially in a landscape of certain genres that could care less about choreography that just walks around that sings or raps their track and they can care less. I think K-pop artists, I don't know if the higher-ups saw that and wanted to make it apparent that the artist could have top-tier choreography and dance moves for the songs, but it was definitely prioritized in the past five to 10 years because K-pop artists are going insane with their music videos. So that being said, the main reason why I say that is because not only is one of the more popular music videos, but of course,

When you look at the statistics overall, this track as far as Sawadika and the music video, the music video specifically is the fastest music video released in 2026 to reach 100 million YouTube views. So we're talking about notoriously affecting the masses. It's safe to say this particular track because of the music video, because I believe the song, I think the music video is doing a lot of the heavy lifting. When it comes to the actual track, it's phenomenal. I'm going to get into my personal opinion in a second about the actual track. But when it comes to the statistics about this music video,

it's definitely in the league of the zone as far as engagement, and it's been trending number one on the music trending chart for quite some time. So the reason why I started off with that is because my subjective opinion, not objective take as far as the analytics and the music video, my subjective opinion about this, Suadika track is that it is my favorite solo black pink track ever and I would go as far to say that is my top three favorite K-pop track of all time I kid you not now you may just think I'm just talking you're like oh he's probably just recency by his ladies and gentlemen

when it comes to my playlist is publicly available via my link tree and my bio you know shameless plug but you can tell via the podcast lifetime and of course my playlist specifically that's at the bottom of my link tree that I listen to several genres, to the point where now it's easier for me to rank certain tracks and certain genres because this specific track, the thing I like the most about it, is that it has a very infectious chorus followed by two vastly different rap verses into both phenomenal. I kid you not. But then you know what I'm saying?

I was like, damn, look at the state of hip-hop. Like, what's going on? Now, of course, Lisa is not specifically in hip-hop, but when you look at this structure, this track sonically, shout out to R. see sonically speaking this track definitely has a lot of hip-hop a heavy hip-hop emphasis and of course the structure you come to realize that the high-energy chorus followed by the heavy drums as far as in the rap verses i mean the confidence and the delivery comes through and especially what she's talking about because not only is she's raping her hometown because if you don't know

Lisa was born and raised and Burry Ram. Burry Ram. I think that's how he said. Thailand. So basically Thailand. That's what she was born. So when it comes to Suadika, that is, once again, a Thai greeting used by women. So it's almost as if you're highlighting a specific track title to showcase not only your heritage, but where you're going in the future.

Because you're basically saying hi to the newcomers who are now. now hearing your first ever debut as far as a solo act. And of course, when it comes to the group specifically, you do not have to worry about them having beef or anything like that. Basically, they are just on their BTS wave right now. If, you know, if you're a connoisseur of notorious massive fake, you already know I covered every single BTS solo member run. And what do they do?

Come back as a group where Ari rang and completely took over the year of 2026. So when it comes to the Black Pink members going about their solo ways and still putting up notorious mass affecting efforts in the music industry. Safe to say that does not mean that it's a disabament. Basically, they're finishing their solo work. And then when the time is right, they will come back together. Because I believe, yeah, Lisa said that specifically. She said a reunion is quote-unquote, if the timing is right.

You know, a reunion is possible, quote, if the timing is right. So when it comes to the solo efforts, they can always come back together. So there's no bad blood. what it looks like to put out solo music. So when it comes to them as a group, they've already broken all the records in the world as far as group, as far as Born Pink being their biggest album, the one that we covered while I first covered them.

And it was the top, what they were, the top female act in Korea. And then of course, when you look at Black Pink having a hauntio girl group record as far as selling with deadline, they sold 1.46 million. first day. So now you come to realize that this group

has already notoriously affecting the masses together. They're just testing the waters as a solo act to see what they could do in the music industry. But it's safe to say they probably, it's very likely that they will come back together. So there's no bad blood. They're just showcasing their talents by themselves.

So anyways, when it comes to Lisa specifically, if you notice, once again, Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio. This is currently the official music video. But of course, when it comes to the movie, this is the actual trailer. So the trailer for this music, uh, I think it's like a, yeah, it's a documentary that's coming on October 12th. And I think I had actual info about the documentary. So this documentary specifically that I have up right now, it is basically showcasing

Lisa's life directed by Sue Kim with the worldwide theatrical release in October. Of course, I just told you the actual day, October 12th. And then of course, when you look at it specifically, Lisa is so established in the music industry, as far as K-pop land and Hontio Char specifically. But of course, in the overall landscape, people may not be aware. So this documentary would definitely let people know

how big of a notorious mass effect Lisa has been for quite some time. And people are just ignorant because, you know, safe to say, the lack of technological advancements in the past made it to where a lot of people just stayed in their palette and never expanded their palette because they just did not know that artist like Lisa was out there in the music industry because of certain gatekeepers that only gave you certain type of music if you liked a certain genre right now with the internet you can make your own playlist you can have a plethora of genres on your own playlist listen to your own music whenever you want to

you're not just being spoon fed what is hot in the music industry so what that means said the main thing thing I was going to get to after that is of course the track once again from Lisa is not the only one doing phenomenal as far as YouTube because of course you do have the South Sawadika track being the 10th most watched video on YouTube but that doesn't do it justice because it's been number one for quite some time as far as music trending on YouTube 161 million views ladies and gentlemen insane but then she does have other music videos doing well as you have the always Lisa official trailer that's for this uh documentary right here that's currently the 78th most watched video on youtube and then okay yeah so that's basically

so those are the top two videos she has trending right now so people are already hype for the documentary uh swadika is a perfect track not only to showcase you musical talent solo but to also let the world know that you're coming by yourself and now with a group and it's still going to be high quality because i believe to me this is one of my favorite K-pop tracks of all time. And you already know if I'm covering a track where the genre, I'm more of a

newcomer and I don't know too much about like the overall culture, it's hard for me to give a ranking. At this point in time, I've covered a lot of different K-pop acts from New Jeans, the Black Pink, to BTS-S to twice. I don't know if KSide counts.

But, you know, as far as looking at the K-pop field in general, listening to a lot of different k-pop musicians. This is definitely one of my favorite K-pop tracks of all time. So I would very much recommend you listen to it and see what I'm talking about as far as the quality level of this specific track.

Definitely heavy hip-hop emphasis. And of course, when it comes to the chorus, I think it's phenomenal. So with that being said, make sure to click my link to share in my bio to follow me on my social medias. And of course, if you're on Spotify, make sure to comment down below.
