Blackpink have nothing short of world domination in their sights, and we seriously believe it could happen for them – especially after the Born Pink Tour takes them around the world.
The tour is in support of the K-pop group’s second studio album, Born Pink, which was released today (Friday 16th September), on the same day the world tour tickets go on sale.
Born Pink features the lead single Pink Venom, which made history as the biggest release by a female artist — solo, group or otherwise — this decade. Pink Venom debuted at number one on Spotify’s global top songs chart, and clocked up more than 7.9 million streams in the first 24-hours.
But Blackpink are no strangers to breaking records. In 2021, they overtook Justin Bieber as the artist with the most YouTube subscribers (currently 80 million and counting), and the girl group has set a lot of firsts, too.
In 2019, Blackpink became the first K-pop act to perform at Coachella, they were the first girl group to top Billboard’s Artist 100, the first Korean girl group to enter and top the Billboard Emerging Artists chart, and the music video for their single Ddu-Du Ddu-Du was the first by a Korean group to surpass one billion views.
Blackpink, a group comprised of Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa also featured on Lady Gaga’s Chromatica, and have collaborated with the likes of Selena Gomez and Cardi B.
So, basically, Blackpink are a big deal!
