In fact, she is the only one who has not released a full-length album yet, although she has released a 5-track EP, \u2018AMORTAGE\u2019. In that work, Jisoo devoted herself to 80s pop and 2010s dance-pop, suggesting that her proposal would be the most pop and the least urban of all.<\/p>\n<p>It seems that that idea was a mirage, because \u2018Eyed Closed\u2019, the single that unites Jisoo and ZAYN, seems like a song by him. Specifically, from his debut \u2018Mind of Mine\u2019 (2016), although much less interesting in production.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Eyed Closed\u2019 is a boring mid-tempo that uses a heavy, repetitive rhythm, acoustic guitar strums and tons of reverb to disguise a mediocre and unremarkable melodic composition. Neither Jisoo nor ZAYN seem too eager to play her, especially her. Of course, it doesn\u2019t sound like his song. Zayn puts more effort into it, but there still doesn\u2019t seem to be much chemistry between the two. <\/p>\n<p>\u2018Eyes Closed\u2019 seems like the typical collaboration arranged by a record company, evidently with the intention of relaunching Jisoo\u2019s solo career, and at the moment it is working relatively: the song is still in position 31 of the most listened to songs on Spotify Global, but on a downward trend.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Zayn\u2019s presence on \u2018Eyes Closed\u2019 is attractive enough, since Malik doesn\u2019t lavish himself too much on the music. \u2018Eyes Closed\u2019 is their first single since the release of their album \u2018Room Under the Stairs\u2019 in May 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jisoo is the BLACKPINK member whose solo work has generated the least commercial impact.
