Blinks are buzzing after a bombshell revelation from 2NE1’s Dara on March 27, 2025, about BLACKPINK’s Lisa being asked to turn off her microphone during training days! Dara dropped this bomb on the survival show Under 15, praising Lisa’s vocals while also exposing how YG Entertainment allegedly downplayed her singing. Fans are now accusing the agency of limiting Lisa’s star power to maintain group balance.
According to Dara, Lisa’s voice was so powerful that instructors feared it might overshadow other trainees. This revelation sparked anger among fans, who have long felt the Thai rapper’s singing skills have been overlooked. They point to rumors of mic restrictions, lip-sync accusations, and minimal lines in BLACKPINK tracks as proof of this.
Dara: during their (Blackpink) monthly evaluations, i was there once… watching each of them perform on stage, these days everyone uses their mics, right?
They told #LISA not turn on her mic because her voice was so powerful, it feels exactly like watching LISA back then..… pic.twitter.com/4wojo6eWM8— LALICE UPDATES (@LaliceUpdates) March 25, 2025

Reactions exploded across social media, with some urging Lisa to break away from YG Entertaiment entirely. Others argued that the company’s strategy might have been intended to highlight her rapping abilities. Still, Dara’s revelation provoked debates about whether Lisa’s vocal abilities were truly overlooked for years.
