Blackpink members Rosé and Lisa will finally be releasing solo music sometime in 2021.

It’s been more than two years since the 2018 release of fellow Blackpink member Jennie’s Solo song, which was said to be the first of several planned individual releases from the members of the popular K-pop girl group. Jennie’s Solo was a major hit in South Korea, and has received almost 600 million views on YouTube so far.

But after years of waiting, fans of the group around the world were reassured by the quartet’s management company, YG Entertainment, that two other members, Lisa and Rosé, would soon be releasing their own solo projects.

On December 30, YG confirmed that the duo were currently shooting music videos for upcoming singles. Fourth member Jisoo, who is currently filming the K-drama Snowdrop , is rumoured to be releasing a song after them.

In December 2019, Blackpink’s fans, known as Blinks, launched a protest campaign against YG Entertainment due to the lack of content from the group, including the long-awaited solo material from Rosé, Lisa and Jisoo. In response, the company issued a statement confirming it was aware of the concerns and the group was working on what would later be released as The Album in October.
