BLACKPINK Members’ Solo Debuts!

Back in October of 2018, YG Entertainment announced that BLACKPINK’s members will be getting solo comebacks, and now in 2020, we finally got more details! With YG releasing a statement yesterday (June 1st), fans got the long-awaited timeline of the comebacks.

After completing Jennie’s ’SOLO’ track (heh), they reported that they have been working on Rosé's song for a year, and that it is already completed and ready for release. Lisa and Jisoo’s tracks are being prepared, with Lisa’s track looking like it’s closer to the finished state. They also confirmed that the releases will only come out after BLACKPINK’s full-length album release in September 2020 - their first full length album in their discography. 

You can read the full English statement below, and we’re all waiting with bated breath for Blackpink's 2020 comeback! 

Hello. This is YG Entertainment.

YG has recently informed the fans regarding BLACKPINK’s upcoming comeback and official album release in June and September.

After monitoring  many responses made by fans in and out of Korea, it seemed that many of you were curious on the solo release plans by individual members, so we decided to inform you on how they are being prepared.

 

YG has released JENNIE’s first-ever solo single ‘SOLO’ back in November 2018, and has been working on ROSÉ’s first-ever solo track for over a year

We ask for your understanding on taking more time than expected, since we were planning to release multiple songs in an album format, rather than releasing a digital single.

 

ROSÉ’s solo works have already been completed, and its release date is planned to be in September after the release of BLACKPINK’s first-ever full-length album.

It is because all members agreed that BLACKPINK’s comeback as an entire groupand their first-ever full-length album release is more important than anything.

 

Furthermore, LISA’s amazing solo single is already prepared for release, and we are currently preparing for JISOO’s solo single release as well.

The solo releases by the members will continue in sequential order, after the release of BLACKPINK’s first-ever full-length album release upcoming in September.

 

YG is always grateful towards the fans in and out of Korea, who have shown interest and affections towards BLACKPINK until this day. We are also always monitoring your opinions which may sound trivial, but are in fact very helpful.

 

YG will not stop the support and effort to help BLACKPINK create better music and to help them grow as admirable artists. That is because it’s the first and most important thing we should consider to repay your love and support towards BLACKPINK.

 

Today is June 1st. Please continue to encourage and support the members of BLACKPINK, who are continuing to work hard for the final preparation process for their upcoming comeback this month.

Thank you.

We wish BLACKPINK all the best in their 2020 solo comebacks and first full-length album!
