As per Blackpink’s entertainment company, more than 10 songs were recorded for the four-membered act’s first full-length album. And though the music is said to have been “completed,” June will already be touting a “pre-release” buzz track single. The girl group’s members have also completed preparations for its accompanying video and stage performances.
“As we’ve prepared for this album for a long time, we will release contents in three different terms so that the group will get opportunities to visit the fans with more contents and performances,” YG stated.
Besides an upcoming album and much-awaited song releases, Blackpink will also be debuting a second single which is planned to launch in either July or August. The single will also include a full-length LP paired with another single coming in September, as per Forbes.
The K-pop group’s collaboration with electropop singer and songwriter Lady Gaga will also be aiming for an album release on April 10. “Chromatica” will feature the collab song called “Sour Candy,” which will be the 10th track on Gaga’s record.
The “Poker Face” singer’s other collaborations will also include Ariana Grande’s “Rain on Me,” as well as Elton John’s “Sine From Above.” Gaga will also have a song called “Kindness Punks” with Blackpink members Lisa, Jennie, Rosé and Jisoo.
