BLACKPINK dropped their D-1 comeback featuring all four members of the group. They also confirmed that they will be featured in YouTube's RELEASED.
According to a report by All Kpop, Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rose were showcased on the poster marking one day before the official album drop. The images were stills from the title track "Lovesick Girls," which released the MV teaser the other day.
YG Entertainment earlier promised that there will be a lot of collaborations that will be revealed in time for BLACKPINK's first full album.
Apart from BLACKPINK's partnership with PUBG Mobile, one of the popular games in the world, the girl group will also be featured in the new YouTube Original series entitled RELEASED. The feature will be available on the streaming platform on October 1 at 11:45 pm EST. It will reportedly include behind the scenes clips featuring BLACKPINK's preparations for the full album.
BLACKPINK has a very solid following on YouTube. It can be recalled that last September 29, Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rose's official YouTube Channel surpassed 48.8 million subscribers, making them the second most subscribed artist on the platform, a record that was previously held by Marshmello.
The KPop girl group now trails Justin Bieber, who holds the title of the most subscribed artist on the streaming platform. The "Yummy" singer currently has 57.2 million subscribers.
It can be recalled that BLACKPINK received a boost in their followers after their June comeback for "How You Like That." They overtook Ed Sheeran to become the third most subscribed artist on YouTube last August after their second pre-release track "Ice Cream."
As part of their comeback activities, YG announced that BLACKPINK will be holding a countdown broadcast on VLive three hours before THE ALBUM drops on October 2 at 12 am EST.
The countdown will feature BLACKPINK introducing the tracks in their album including six new songs like "Pretty Savage," "Crazy Over You," "Love To Hate Me," and "You Never Know" as well as their title track "Lovesick Girls."
BLACKPINK and American rapper Cardi B. confirmed their collaboration for "Bet You Wanna," and teased that the Bardipink collab will be amazing.
Jennie and Jisoo are featured as first-time songwriters in the album while DJ Guetta is credited as one of the featured producers.
BLINKs will also get a treat when Netflix rolls out BLACKPINK's documentary entitled Light Up the Sky on October 14. The documentary features clips from Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rose's early days as trainees until their epic Coachella performance in 2019.
