Seriously? First of all you can never compare blackpink with the creativity and talent displayed by Adele and beatles, just coz England was dumb enough to grant this honour to a group like black pink who cant even sing properly, let alone create own music. Secondly it is hillarious them given this honour when there are so many others who actively deserve an honour like this , real people who do real stuff to make a posotive change in the world. Sometimes the world is so unfair , in which undeserving people always gets recognized .

It says "The MBE is awarded for an outstanding achievement or service to the community which has had a long-term, significant impact."

Now you guys have to ask yourself if those people you mentioned could make any 'long-term significant impact' or could they make any impact at all?
