BLACKPINK’s Rosé calls her album “rosie” a “trauma dumping” project, here’s why

BLACKPINK’s Rosé isn’t holding back. During her appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, she described her fresh full-length solo album, “rosie,” as a “trauma dumping” project that helped her heal from a toxic relationship. Even Kelly Clarkson herself suggested “Trauma Dumping” as the perfect name for her next release. Then, Rosé explained how writing and recording these tracks gave her a safe space to unpack her feelings.

Released on December 6, 2024, “rosie” packs 12 tracks, including the massive single “APT.,” featuring Bruno Mars. The record also boasts “number one girl,” “drinks or coffee,” “two years” and “toxic til the need,” all providing a glimpse into her personal love stories and heartbreak situations. It also marks a different step from the BLACKPINK material, which is known for being “girl crush” and “badass.”

Surprisingly, Rosé also let slip her retirement fantasy of growing a backyard cilantro farm if pop stardom ever fades. Kelly, who prefers beets, joked they should become neighbors and cultivate side-by-side. This chat between the duo showcased Rosé’s down-to-earth side, proving even global icons dream of humble hobbies—and fresh herbs.
