After much anticipation and speculation, Blackpink’s debut album is finally getting released!
An up and coming sensation in the K-Pop sphere, the South Korean girls quartet Blackpink, are releasing their debut studio album, The Album, on October 2nd. Featuring two of their biggest hits, How You Like That?, and Ice Cream ft. Selena Gomez, The Album will also contain 8 unknown songs.
BLACKPINK have been hard at work on the album over the past eight months, with the unfortunate pandemic giving them more time to work on their project.
“Every single day, even if we have different schedules, we finish our schedule and we’ll be at the studio and get into our producing, working, and recording mode," said BLACKPINK member Rosé to Billboard in August.
The group hopes that all of their effort, sweat, and tears will end up paying off and help distract everyone from this atrocity of a year that we have all had.
“I feel like this album could get a lot of light and energy to everybody being stuck at home not knowing what to do, and hopefully this can cheer them up,” Rosé told Billboard.
Coming from the Edgewood yearbook staff, Jacob Smith is looking forward to his first year in Magazine and to what the Magazine may hold in the future.
