"BLACKPINK - GO M/V"

0:00Now getting into Blackpink once again as the first time we ever covered them of course once was in 2023 where I had a lot of acclaim and gave a lot of praise to Jenny from Blackpink with her collab with the weekend and with the track title one of the girls which if you don't know, we covered that back on June 23rd, 2023 and of course we covered them all the way up to the year of 2026, you know, so when it comes to K-Pop, safe to say I'm very into specific notorious mass effects especially when it comes from BTS, Blackpink, other K-Pop groups in general and especially the individual rise as when you look at Jenny from Blackpink specifically, she helped them win best choreography and I bring this up all the time because this was a big deal, right? As far as Jenny helping the idol win the choreography award, I think when it comes to K-Pop musicians, they may have one of the most

1:06consistent quality standards when it comes to choreography and music videos in general. So now when you look at the group as a whole, safe to say, ladies and gentlemen, they just came back from over three year hiatus as far as the entire group to drop this EP titled Deadline. Now if you don't know Blackpink just dropped an EP title Deadline, it is essentially five tracks, 14 minutes of length and of course the tracks are a jump, go, me and my champion and let's just say it's a PG podcast, I think that last one is definitely a curse word but let's just call it the boy track, right? So anyways, seems as if go is the particular single for this EP release as currently, it's the only one with a music video and of course when you look at the charts as far as YouTube specifically, it currently has the most

2:07played music video in the world. Number one in the Philippines, number four in Thailand, number four in Turkey. So that brings me to another point. I don't know if y'all know, but Blackpink isn't just some random Kpop group that just arose from the ashes. Basically, the main thing when it comes to Blackpink is that they're the first Kpop group ever to top billboard 200, the first Kpop girl group to top billboard 200. Now of course, you probably think it to yourself, but what about Kpop demon hunters? What about them? No, just play. So as far as Kpop demon hunters, they basically still have the 11th most played track in the world and they have the number six and of course, the number 94th, most played tracks in the world where house it does coming in number 94 overall, we're talking about totality and gold and it's currently the six most played track in the world. So they're definitely still notoriously affecting the masses for an album that ended up coming

3:14out June 20th, 2025. To have a album that came out that long ago and still have the six most played track in the world as a phenomenal accomplishment, but when you compare Blackpink to Kpop demon hunters, safe to say there's really no comparison as overall Blackpink has definitely generated more revenue and engagement than Kpop demon hunters, but of course, I had to throw that comparison out there because Kpop demon hunters objectively speaking, not only is one of the, well, not one of is the most successful soundtrack of all time, but also is one of the most successful groups of all time just because of that one soundtrack. So that's why I'm comparing the two, but as far as longevity for one, Blackpink is real. You know, Kpop demon hunters, they are animated characters, of course, the singers behind them are real, but Blackpink has more front facing, whereas you look at Kpop demon hunters

4:14for the animated characters, not really the singers who voiced the characters. So anyways, um, getting back into Blackpink as far as the tour, fanatics will be pleased to know that the Blackpink tour as of March 20th, 26th, they had previous tours such as the best pink world tour that went from 2022 to 2023, 66 sold out shows, 1.8 million attendees and grossed $330 million worldwide. The highest by a female group, Asian act, and vocal group in history at the time. So now you look at the deadline world tour that's went from last year to 2025 into this year, which is Blackpink's biggest yet 81 shows across three continents, which is stadium focused full stadium tour. And of course, when you look at the projections, safe to say they are exceeding prior records and a lot of people are coming out and droves, it's not finished yet. So I can't give you the overall revenue, but let's just say it's doing phenomenal.

5:18And of course, when it comes to the EP that was just dropped as far as deadline, people are also going to run back to that after watching the live performance. So not only are we talking about one of the most notorious Kpop groups in the world, but as far as a girl group, the definitely the cream of the crop, as far as analytically speaking, they definitely put up dream like analytics as the the most subscribed music act on YouTube. They are the first Korean group to headline Coachella back in 2023 that the highest grossing tour by a girl group with a born pink world tour was probably going to surpass with the current tour they are on with deadline. And of course, as far as the singles, I'm pretty sure you've heard APT by Bruno Mars, right? Rosie from BLACKPINK was on that specific track. Lisa had multiple VMA awards as far as best Kpop for best or first female soloist to win that award twice, right? And then you have Jenny, my favorite out of BLACKPINK, because of course, the one of the girls

6:20track with the weekend to this day, I say is one of the best tracks I've ever heard in life. And of course, when it comes to her specifically, 20 weeks are on hot 100 multiple MAM, it says mama, but I think it's just MAMA awards. Now let me see what their abbreviation with MAMA abbreviation, let me see, what is that? Because you know, I got to do a little Mickey research right quick. I'm pretty sure it's like their own award show, but I want to get the actual full name. So it's the Mnet Asian Music Awards, hey, only hero, notorious mass specter, could you not? So anyways, as far as the Mnet Asian Music Awards, Jenny specifically won that multiple times for best collaboration. And the first Korean soloist, Billboard Women and Music Award back in 2025. So individually, all these artists are doing phenomenal in BLACKPINK, and guess what? No, I did not forget Jisoo, Jisoo, I think that's how you pronounce it.

7:24As with her solo releases, acting as far as her show, the show she was a part of, snow drop, all watched under own labels as far as individually. So these artists are doing the own thing I would say, you know, for my humble opinion, you know, skyering the music industry. Rosie and Jenny definitely seems to be the superstar of BLACKPINK. I'm open to being wrong, but from what I've seen, that is what stands out most of me, especially when Jenny, I think she was the main reason that the idol won best choreography. Because if you watch that show, you already know, I mean, I got to tell them, you already know that the quality was below sea level. So there's a reason why they got best choreography, let's just say Jenny had a lot to do with that. Anyways, as far as the three year hiatus, the reason why they took such a break is because after the 2022 born pink being such a massive tour, right, they basically had to renew group contracts with YG in 2023. So of course, you know, when it comes to renewing contracts and negotiations, you never know

8:27how it goes behind the scenes. So I'm thinking that's what caused the hiatus a lot of them went on their individual ways, but guess what, they're back together now officially speaking with their album Deadline that's out now on all DSPs. So that'd be it. Click my link here in my bio. Let me know one of my social medias. What do you think about Blackpink currently having the most viewed music video in the world for their track Go, offer the EP that's out now called Deadline? And if you listen to the EP, what is your favorite track and what, who is your favorite member at a Blackpink and why? What?
