‘THE ALBUM’ marks BLACKPINK’s debut Korean-language studio album, following their 2019 EP ‘Kill This Love’ and 2018 Japanese album ‘BLACKPINK IN YOUR AREA’. Their forthcoming release is one of the most highly anticipated albums of the year.
BLACKPINK have also shared two teaser videos for ‘THE ALBUM’ today, each featuring a member of the group. The two concept videos released were centred around Rosé and Lisa, presumably with Jisoo and Jennie’s yet to be released.

Last month, the band previewed ‘THE ALBUM’ by dropping their collaboration with US pop star Selena Gomez. ‘Ice Cream’ came accompanied with a sugary sweet music video that featured all five women in various candy-themed settings.
Previous to that, BLACKPINK announced an album would be coming through the release of bass-heavy single ‘How You Like That’. They also recently featured on Lady Gaga’s album ‘Chromatica’, via a sassy collab titled ‘Sour Candy’.
The full track listing for ‘THE ALBUM’ is still yet to be released to the public.
Earlier this month, Netflix announced they would be releasing a documentary on BLACKPINK, titled Light Up The Sky.
The streaming service will be releasing the feature film on October 14, along with photos of each group member – Jisoo, Jennie, Lisa and Rosé – which Netflix subscribers will be able to use as their profile icons.
