BLACKPINK to release new mini-album in November? YG Entertainment reacts to comeback news: ‘Will announce…'

Pink Villa3 days ago
New BLACKPINK music? Yes please! The quartet, known for releasing chart-topping music for the last nine years, recently dropped a comeback single track Jump, which has been on the hearts and minds of K-pop fans around the world. While fans were reeling from the hit that is JUMP, which was worked on by Diplo, there are rumors of the group releasing a mini-album soon. On August 11, a My Daily report claimed that BLACKPINK 's first album in three years since BORN PINK in September 2022, will be revealed to the fans. YG Entertainment gave a very diplomatic response, sharing that the right updates will be revealed in the coming days.
BLACKPINK gears up for comeback after 3 years
According to the initial report, the BLACKPINK members have already completed the jacket photoshoot for the album, and they plan to finish recording new songs and complete all the remaining work within the two months that they have left vacant in between their packed tour schedule. After ending their European leg of the DEADLINE World Tour in London with two concerts on August 15 and 16, Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa will have a couple of months on their hands.
The news shared by an insider quoted their plans as, "BLACKPINK will release an album within this year. Originally, they were aiming for an October release, but the schedule has changed, and they are planning to release it in November and possibly perform on music shows."
In a response to Newsen, the group's management label, YG Entertainment, said, 'We will announce details through official promotions at a later date.' This more or less means confirmation from the agency's end; however, it remains to be seen how the idea pans out over the next few months. Their last record, a whopping 38 months ago, was the studio album BORN PINK, which included the title track Shut Down and managed to rip all charts to pieces to broken records.

BigHit's new boy band CORTIS reveals the sound advice they recieved from the Bangtan Boys before their debut

If there's one K-pop playbook worth studying, it's BTS's. From their perfectly timed career moves to navigating military enlistment without losing momentum, the Bangtan boys have turned strategy into an art form. And now, BigHit Music is hoping lightning will strike thrice. After the blockbuster success of BTS and TXT, the label is ready to unleash its next powerhouse: CORTIS. CORTIS and BTS Five fresh-faced young boys — Martin, James, Juhoon, Seonghyeon, and Keonho — will be a part of BigHit's first new boy group since TXT's 2019 debut. Each member brings their own creative edge, but all eyes are on 17-year-old leader Martin. The Canadian-Korean prodigy has already made his mark behind the scenes, penning tracks like TXT's Deja Vu, Miracle, and Beautiful Strangers, ENHYPEN's Outside, LE SSERAFIM's Pierrot, and ILLIT's Magnetic. Not bad for someone who hasn't even debuted yet. But what about their interactions with brother group BTS? In an exclusive chat with Rolling Stone, CORTIS revealed that they've had some pretty legendary moments with the Bangtan Boys who took the time to offer some pre-debut wisdom. Sounds exactly like something they would do! 'BTS gave us the advice to do well by the people that you're working with, the staff. And I feel like that's all that matters. To hit a long run, you've got to be good to the people around you. You've got to show love,' said Martin. Juhoon chimed in with another gem from their sunbaes: 'Another piece of advice BTS gave us is that a lot of people may think it's the end once you debut. But actually, the debut is just the beginning, so there's no need to be perfect. Show improvement and keep evolving as you go. That's been helping me a lot for where we are right now in this particular moment in time when I'm just about to debut.' The path toward success CORTIS has already dipped their toes into the scene with their pre-debut MV Go!, which sparked mixed reactions from fans. But the real test is coming soon: their official title track What You Want drops on August 18 at 6 p.m. KST, with an English version featuring American rapper Teezo Touchdown following on August 22.
