YG: 'It was more of a gamble & challenge for him & TEDDY to select ‘DDU-DU DDU-DU’ as the title song'

- The BLACKPINK's members said that as soon as they heard ‘DDU-DU DDU-DU’, they knew ‘it was it’. How did you feel when you first heard the song. 
◇  I didn’t know BLACKPINK said that. (Laughs) Actually, it was more of a gamble and challenge for me and TEDDY (producer - pic above) to select ‘DDU-DU DDU-DU’ as the title song.

We felt that since the track is fierce and contains a lot of rap sections compared to BLACKPINK’s previous releases, it may lack popularity among the public. At the same time, we felt that it’s a big mountain we’ll have to conquer, eventually.

One thing I was confident about was that the songs BLACKPINK has been practicing for the last 6 years were closer to BLACK rather than PINK. We successfully conquered the mountain, so we’ll aim for higher mountains and present more bold music in various genres from now on.
