Jisoo’s first solo single is all about overcoming a toxic relationship and “leaving behind nothing but the scent of flowers.” YouTube is yet to officially release viewership numbers for its music video, but it reportedly crossed over 40 million views in just 24 hours. This marks the biggest 24-hour debut for a K-pop music video released so far this year.

“Flower” was released as the lead single from her debut single album Me, which allowed her to show a new and diverse side of herself to loyal Blackpink fans.

“This is a single of ‘me’ myself, created after countless considerations to look inside and express myself…I feel myself growing and becoming stronger as I go through the process of discovering new charms that I didn’t even know existed,” said Jisoo in a statement.

Me also set several major records ahead of its release on March 31, making Jisoo the first K-pop female solo artist to become a million-seller after exceeding 1.24 million pre-orders in three weeks.

After giving us the highest-grossing tour and one of the best-selling albums of 2022 with Un Verano Sin Ti, Bad Bunny is the best possible person to headline Coachella this year. He’ll take the stage on April 14 & 21, along with Gorillaz, Burna Boy, Blondie, and Becky G.

Blackpink will return to Coachella for the first time since 2019, making history as the first K-pop act to ever headline the festival. They’ll take the coveted Saturday slot along with Rosalía, Charlie XCX, Kid Laroi, and Labrinth on April 15 & 22.

As for Frank Ocean, he was previously scheduled as one of the headliners in 2020, before the festival was canceled due to Covid-19. He’ll have a chance to redeem himself on April 16 & 23, when Björk, Kali Uchis, and Porter Robinson are also set to perform.

The 2023 Coachella Music and Arts Festival will return to the desert during two weekends on April 14-16 and April 21-23, taking place at the Empire Polo Grounds in Indio, California.

Blackpink released “Ddu-Du Ddu-Du” in 2018, and it was one of the songs that led to their rise to global stardom. It was featured on the group’s first Korean-language extended play Square Up, together with songs “Forever Young”, “Really”, “See U Later”, and hidden track “As If It’s Your Last”.

“Ddu-Du Ddu-Du” crossed a two billion mark on January 4, becoming the highest-charting song by a K-pop band to reach this milestone. Psy still remains the highest-ranking overall K-pop act with 4.6 billion views with his viral hit “Gangnam Style”, which went down in history as the first song to reach a billion views on YouTube.

Following its release, “Ddu-Du Ddu-Du” debuted at No. 55 on the Billboard Hot 100, making Blackpink the highest-charting Korean girl group in the US at the time. They found even bigger success in the years to come, getting their first No. 1 album in the US with Born Pink and scoring their highest-charting single on the Billboard Hot 100 with the Selena Gomez collaboration “Ice Cream” at No. 13.

“Shut Down” is one of the group’s most extravagant visuals to date, and it shows Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa rocking a series of chic outfits as they dance on wet boardwalks, and drive in fast cars and on disco tanks.

“Shut Down” is the latest piece of the puzzle in telling the story of Born Pink, and the group’s label YG Entertainment promised this record is a whole new chapter for Blackpink.

“All the songs on the album are the crystals that will write a new story for Blackpink, but the title song, in particular, will be a song that will surprise world music fans. The music video will also elevate the status of K-Pop with a difference that has never been seen before,” reads YG Entertainment’s statement.

“Shut Down” was released as the second single from Blackpink’s second studio album Born Pink, which hit the shelves on September 16. It features a total of eight songs, including the lead single “Pink Venom” and promo single “Ready for Love”.

Blackpink’s label YG Entertainment said this visual had the highest production budget they have ever invested into a music video, and they definitely weren’t kidding. The cutting-edge visual will take you on one wild ride, shifting through countless futuristic settings, showing members of Blackpink rocking a wide array of show-stopping designer looks.

Blackpink members set down with Billboard to discuss the meaning behind their new single, and Jennie said “Pink Venom” perfectly captures the essence of Blackpink and proves they’re not straying away from their identity.

“Since ‘pink’ and ‘venom’ have contradicting images, we thought they were kind of reminiscent of us… we are named Blackpink and contradiction is our charm – we wanted to show that. It’s pink venom, a lovely poison, it’s words that most express us,” Jennie explained.

“Pink Venom” serves as the lead single from Blackpink’s upcoming second studio album Born Pink, set to hit the shelves on September 16. They’ll support this record by embarking on a world tour in October, described as the largest world tour by a K-pop girl group in history

Lizzo is currently taking the world by storm with her summer anthem “About Damn Time”, but she’s actually expected to perform her new single “2 Be Loved (Am I Ready)” at this award show. Jack Harlow’s inclusion also makes total sense since he’s one of the night’s most nominated artists, but he’s yet to announce his song choice.

K-pop girl band Blackpink will hit the stage with a live rendition of their upcoming single “Pink Venom”, set to be released on August 19. Italian band Måneskin is in the running for the best artist award, and they’re set to perform their latest single “Supermodel”.

The list of performers at this year’s MTV VMAs will also include Anitta, J Balvin, Marshmello x Khalid, Panic! at the Disco, and Kane Brown. Nicki Minaj will hit the stage with the medley of her biggest hits after receiving the honorary Vanguard Award.

The 2022 MTV Video Music Awards are taking place on August 28 in New Jersey’s Prudential Center in Newark.

The animated visual is unlike any other that Blackpink shared in the past because they joined forces with PUBG Mobile to make it happen. This battle royale video game grew into one of the highest-grossing mobile games in the past few years, and it was amazing to watch the members of Blackpink immerse into its magical world.

“Ready for Love” marks the group’s first Korean release since The Album in 2020 and it’s the first promotional single from their upcoming record Born Pink. This album still doesn’t have an official release date, but it’s hitting the shelves in September.

The K-pop girl group is expected to drop another single before the album’s release in a few weeks and that’s just the beginning! They’re also expected to embark on a world tour in October and their label YG Entertainment described it as “the largest world tour in the history of a K-pop girl group” back in July.

Blackpink’s comeback was confirmed by YG Entertainment, the company behind this K-pop powerhouse:

“A lot of Blackpink-esque music has been prepared over a long period of time. On top of new music and large-scale projects, Blackpink will also go on the largest world tour in the history of a K-pop girl group by the end of the year to expand their rapport with fans worldwide.”

According to YG Entertainment’s announcement, their tour will “extend through the second half of the year”, but they’re yet to share additional details. The release date of the group’s new album is yet to be confirmed, but they’re planning to film a music video for one of the singles in mid-July.

Blackpink’s first Korean full-length album The Album came out in 2020 and debuted at no. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart. It was preceded by hit singles “How You Like That” and “Lovesick Girls”, in addition to the A-list collaboration “Ice Cream” featuring Selena Gomez.

At the moment when they managed to break the Canadian star’s record, Blackpink had 65.6 million subscribers under their belt, half a million more than Bieber, according to Forbes. BTS is currently placed third with 57.5 million subscribers, while Marshmello and Ariana Grande are placed no. 4 and no. 5 respectively.

Blackpink said this album was a “miracle-like moment” for the band, and credited their fans for making it possible and for always loving and supporting them. “As this is a result that we accomplished together with our fans, we hope fans will also share this joy. We will become artists who continue to give positive energy through good music and videos,” reads Blackpink’s statement.

This record-breaking moment comes shortly after Blackpink’s Lisa released her debut single “Lalisa”. The enormous success of this song contributed to the latest increase in subscribers on Blackpink’s YouTube channel and attracted 10 million views in just 90 minutes.

The K-pop singer made the announcement on Instagram, sharing two images with the March 12 release date and teaser images from the upcoming album.

While details about the tracklist and title weren’t revealed, one of the preview images has a few words in English just barely visible through the smoke with the singer’s name and reads “No Way Out” and “You Are Now…”

Rosé first announced her solo project in January with a 30-second teaser and she gave a sneak peek during the band’s January’s Livestream concert, The Show, in which she performed the track “Gone”.

Rosé is the second BLACKPINK member to go on a solo career, following Jennie, who released her chart-topping hit “Solo” in 2018. Jennie became the first K-pop female artist to reach 600 million views on YouTube.

BLACKPINK’s video for “Ddu-du Ddu-du” reached 1.5 billion views at the end of last month and the group was recently named goodwill ambassadors for the UN Climate Change Conference.
