About this song
"On The Ground" is the second solo release by a BLACKPINK member after JENNIE's "SOLO" from November 2018, and it arrived five months after the group's album. It is the lead track from ROSÉ's debut solo two-track EP, R. The song is built on simple guitar and an EDM-inspired beat, and its music video features explosions, a meteorite striking a limo, and multiple versions of ROSÉ.
What it's about
The song finds ROSÉ reflecting on her life as a global K-pop star and realizing that what matters most to her already lies within herself. Its title plays on the idiom about keeping one's feet on the ground and staying true to who you used to be despite fame.
