Excitement is in the air for BLACKPINK fans as Rosé gears up for an electrifying new collaboration with American singer-songwriter Alex Warren. The news broke on June 11 KST, sending Blinks into a frenzy as they eagerly anticipate what this partnership will bring.
Warren, who recently celebrated his hit single “Ordinary” topping the Billboard Hot 100 for a second week, teased fans with a snippet of an unreleased track on Instagram. Accompanied by the caption, “I CANNOT WAIT for y’all to hear this…,” the brief clip showcased Rosé’s unmistakable and soulful voice, igniting speculation about her involvement.
Adding to the intrigue, Warren playfully hinted, “You will never guess who’s featuring in this song,” before revealing a photo from the 2025 American Music Awards. In the snapshot, he sported a Martine Rose Classic Shirt with a logo patch reading “Rose,” which fans quickly interpreted as confirmation of Rosé’s participation.
Sources indicate that the song, titled “On My Mind,” will be part of Chapter 2 of Warren’s upcoming album, “You’ll Be Alright, Kid.” Interestingly, the official press release from Atlantic Records, which represents both artists, did not mention this track, leading fans to speculate that Rosé’s contribution was a last-minute addition that could potentially elevate the project.
While an official release date for “On My Mind” remains unannounced, the buzz surrounding Warren’s teasers suggests that fans won’t have to wait long for its debut. Meanwhile, Rosé’s influence continues to resonate across the music scene, with her song “APT” recently featured on the popular Korean reality show “Earth Arcade.” Additionally, members of the girl group IVE were spotted singing her track on a recent program, showcasing her growing impact.
In a heartwarming moment, BTS member Jin shared his admiration for Rosé during a recent interview, expressing his love for her collaboration with Bruno Mars on “APT.” His affectionate reference to her as “Rosé-ssi” delighted fans, who found his phrasing irresistibly cute, further solidifying Rosé’s cultural significance as she forges her solo path post-YG.
As BLACKPINK prepares for their much-anticipated comeback album and the Deadline tour, Jisoo recently opened up in an interview with Vogue Singapore about her longing to reunite with the group. Reflecting on the cherished memories of touring together, she echoed the sentiments of fans eagerly awaiting their return to the stage.
On a different front, Lisa is making waves in the acting world, generating serious buzz ahead of the 2025 Emmy nominations. Although she couldn’t attend HBO’s “The White Lotus” “For Your Consideration” event on June 11 KST due to her busy schedule, her performance as Mook has garnered her a nomination for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series.
With the Emmy nominations set to be announced on July 15, fans are already rallying behind Lisa, hoping for a well-deserved recognition of her talent. If she secures a nomination, there’s a chance she may take a brief hiatus from the Deadline tour to attend the prestigious awards in September.
As the BLACKPINK members carve out their individual paths while remaining connected, fans are left wondering what exciting developments lie ahead for this iconic group. What surprises will they unveil next?
