I am in love with the hip-hop/pop song Kiss And Make Up, generated by the impressive collaboration between a British singer/songwriter Dua Lipa and a K-POP quartet BLACKPINK (블랙핑크). You can listen to this song in the Complete Edition of Dua’s self-titled album or on her YouTube page.
The most characteristic feature of Kiss And Make Up is their singing voices combination on the rhythmic sound. Their expressions by multiple vocals/raps are powerful and dynamic. This song has given me the different impression from their original songs. It is one and only world consisting of two types of talented and musical expressions.

When the singing voices switching in Kiss And Make Up, I had an image in my mind of some doors and rooms. I open a door to enter a next room, and open a door in the room and enter a different room. A room is connected to a different room. Each time I open a new door, I can meet a new singing voice and it makes me attracted.



Dua Lipa and BLACKPINK – Kiss And Make Up
Just after I listened to one of the Dua Lipa song for the first time, I knew BLACKPINK in this collaboration, and then had an interest in their original songs and searched them. My interest has flown freely in a network of music. BTS (방탄소년단) took me to the K-POP world including BLACKPINK, and at the same time Dua Lipa told me some collaborations with EDM stars such as Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix, and Silk City (Diplo and Mark Ronson).

Some points are connected to be some lines, and then the lines are three-dimensionally connected. Many songs for music lovers are linked to each other in one huge network of music.
