3:20 Jennie 🎶Straight to ya dome like Woah, woah, woah Straight to ya dome like Ah, ah, ah🎶 ‘Straight to the dome’ was a relatively popular term during the ‘90s for being super high or spaced out on drugs. It is also often used to say you’re going to get high. The term ‘Straight to the dome’ is a variation of ‘Straight to my dome,’ meaning the drugs went straight to your head. In the context of “Pink Venom,” it means that BLACKPINK’s music will go straight to your head. In that part of the choreography, the members even point to their heads. The line could also mean ‘Straight to the [stage],’ hinting at BLACKPINK’s successful world tours in arenas, domes, etc.
Can you please react to more Blackpink music? You seriously gonna like Shut Down, Du-du-du-du-du, As if it's your last, Kill this Love, Whistle, Boombayah....and more! Almost all of their videos have 1 to 2 billion view each!!
So I know you caught a couple of them, but the musical references on "Pink Venom" are pretty extensive: The song starts with a crowd chanting "Blackpink" like the crowd chants "Bravehearts" in the Nas song "Made You Look". Then Jennie hits us with a reference to Biggie's famous line "kick in the door, wavin the 44"(Jennie says Coco). Next Lisa references Rhianna's "Pon de Replay" with "One by one and two by two" and also 50 Cent's P.I.M.P. with "you can't get a dollar outta me". Rosé and Jisoo both reference Taylor Swift with "look what you made us do" also "I bring the pain like" is a reference to Method Man's "Bring the Pain". Finally, the Jennie/Lisa rap verse is backed by a sample of Ice Cube/Eazy-E's part of "Gangsta Gangsta" by N.W.A(could also be "Dope Man" pretty much the same sample). All the hip hop references aren't a coincidence as they happened to release this track during the 49th anniversary of hip hop. Teddy(their producer) and the girls definitely weren't shy about shouting out their inspirations/favorite artists in this song.
If you like rock, watch DREAMCATCHER It is a group that foreigners like more than Korea. In particular, the music video of the Apocalypse Worldview is exciting for rockers. Scream, Boca, Odd Eye, Plum, Vision in that order
