BLACKPINK beats BTS' Dynamite and Take Two with JUMP, becomes FIRST K-pop group with 3 Spotify Global No. 1 hits
BLACKPINK is once again proving their unmatched global power, this time with their digital single JUMP. It's released on July 11, 2025. The song has skyrocketed to the top of the Spotify Global Chart, creating a sensation across the music world. Just one day after its release, JUMP claimed the No. 1 spot on Spotify's global ranking. It joins Pink Venom and Shut Down as the group's third track to top the chart. BLACKPINK now stands alone as the K-pop group with the most No. 1 hits on the Spotify Global Chart. It's a feat no other Korean group has accomplished, not even the previously reigning BTS. BLACKPINK surpasses BTS and joins global female icons With JUMP adding to their Spotify legacy, BLACKPINK officially overtakes BTS. The boys previously led with two No. 1 songs: Dynamite and Take Two. BLACKPINK's total now stands at three. This solidifies their position as the most-streamed K-pop group in Spotify's history. Their global recognition doesn't stop there. BLACKPINK's trio of No. 1 hits has also earned them a spot among the top female artists with the most chart-topping songs on the platform. They now share the fourth position with international pop powerhouses Rihanna, Olivia Rodrigo, and Sabrina Carpenter. Only three artists stand ahead: Billie Eilish with 6 No. 1s, Ariana Grande with 8, and Taylor Swift leading with 12. BLACKPINK's JUMP becomes second-longest K-pop No. 1 on Spotify As of July 17, JUMP has now held the top spot on the Spotify Global Chart for five consecutive days, racking up over 6.579 million daily streams. This makes it the second-longest-running No. 1 single by a K-pop group. It surpassed their own Pink Venom, which stayed at No. 1 for three days. The only song ahead is Shut Down, which stayed on top for six days. And that, too, is a BLACKPINK song. The group's dominance on the chart doesn't just set K-pop records; it's also a first in Spotify history. BLACKPINK is now the only group ever, in any genre, to have three different songs hold the No. 1 position for multiple days each. Top 5 K-pop groups on Spotify Global Chart Here's a look at the longest-running No. 1 songs by K-pop groups on the Spotify Global Chart: BLACKPINK – Shut Down: 6 Days BLACKPINK – JUMP: 5 Days BLACKPINK – Pink Venom: 3 Days HUNTR/X – Golden: 2 Days BTS – Dynamite: 1 Day BTS – Take Two: 1 Day With three entries in the top five, and all occupying the top three slots, BLACKPINK has effectively built a stronghold on global streaming charts.

Blackpink's Jennie admits she is hopeless romantic, says ‘fate disappointed me'; opens up about her ideal type
BLACKPINK's Jennie recently sat down for a fun chat with YouTuber Amelia Dimoldenberg on Chicken Shop Date and made some exciting confessions about her take on love, life, and her ideal type. The South Korean rapper has often been linked to fellow K-pop stars over the years. While Jennie herself has always stayed tight-lipped about her dating life, this time she did admit that she considers herself a very romantic person and is usually the one to take the first step. The Ruby singer also confessed that she's a big believer in love at first sight. Also read: BTS' RM and Jungkook admit Kim Taehyung has changed: 'We can't keep up anymore, he's stronger' During the 10 minute quick chat, the singer was asked if she's a romantic person, to which she replied, 'I consider myself to be very romantic.' When asked in what way, she added, 'I like to surprise my date.' On what could be the best compliment she'd give someone, Jennie said she doesn't like people easily, so when she does, she tells them that, according to her, could be taken as a compliment. Jennie was also quizzed on how often she gets a love hangover, and she playfully said, 'Maybe every other weekend.' She admitted she's not a fan of those hangovers, but she can't really avoid them either. Also read: 'BLACKPINK's new track is so bad, it's hilarious': Fans slam 'JUMP' as a 'B-class' song In South Korea, idol culture often keeps stars from being too open about their dating life, but fans were glad Jennie was so candid. Later in the chat, when Amelia asked if she believes in fate, Jennie said, 'I do,' but followed it up with, 'Fate has disappointed me.' She added it's less now, and she's back to deciding her own fate. When asked if having a crush excites her, Jennie said, 'I haven't been on a date in a very long time, so this is exhilarating.' As for her ideal type, she shared, 'I don't like cute guys. Sexy guys don't know they're sexy, but cute guys know they're cute.' And when asked if she'd date someone with no rhythm, Jennie replied, 'Rhythm is so important. It's everything. I don't want to date someone who's so stiff.' Jennie's dating life has always been a hot topic. The singer was first reported to be dating EXO's Kai during her debut era. They publicly dated from October 2018 to January 2019, with SM Entertainment confirming the relationship at the time. Old clips still resurface online showing the two stealing glances at public events. When the Chicken Shop Date host asked Jennie if she believes in love at first sight, Jennie replied, 'That's been my life,' adding, 'I know instantly whether it's gonna work or not.' Fans felt she might've been hinting at one of those times where her romance fizzled before turning into a fairytale ending. She was also linked to BIGBANG's G-Dragon. More recently, she's been rumoured to be dating BTS' Kim Taehyung, aka V. Fans have pieced together clues, but neither side has ever confirmed anything. Reports say they parted ways in 2024 before V enlisted for military service. On the work front, she's back with her fellow BLACKPINK members Lisa, Rosé, and Jisoo. The group, still under YG, kicked off their Deadline World Tour earlier this month.

Is BLACKPINK dropping new album in 2025 after JUMP release? All we know about Lisa, Jennie, Rosé, Jisoo's Q4 comeback plans
There's fresh excitement in the BLACKPINK fandom! A new report from IBK Investment & Securities has surfaced. It suggests that the world-renowned girl group may be preparing to release a new album in the fourth quarter of 2025. YG Entertainment has yet to confirm or deny the speculation. But fans are already celebrating the possibility of a long-awaited full-group album before the year ends. This update follows the release of JUMP. It's BLACKPINK 's first group single in nearly three years. BLACKPINK's JUMP marks a powerful return On July 11, BLACKPINK treated fans with their energetic new digital single, JUMP. The girls ended a prolonged group musical hiatus that had stretched since 2023. The track was initially performed live during the opening night of their World Tour DEADLINE in Goyang, South Korea. JUMP is a bold sonic shift for the group, diving headfirst into the world of hardstyle. It's a high-energy electronic genre that's rarely tackled in K-pop. It combines the explosive edge of festival EDM with BLACKPINK's signature fierce charm. From the production to the visuals, it made it clear: BLACKPINK is back, and they're not playing it safe. Creative team behind JUMP The song features an impressive creative lineup. Lyrics are penned by TEDDY, Zikai, Claudia Valentina, and others, while production credits include Diplo, 24, Boaz Van De Beatz, Zecca, and Ape Drums. Together, they crafted a beat-heavy anthem. Since its release, JUMP has been praised by fans and critics alike for its infectious hook and genre-bending approach. Social media platforms saw an immediate spike in fan edits, dance covers, and live performance reactions. BLINKs hope for first full album since Born Pink While the recent single was a much-needed boost for BLINKs worldwide, what fans truly crave is a full album. It's something they haven't received since 2022's Born Pink. Even the group's last official track, The Girls (2023), was part of a mobile game, rather than a major musical comeback. That's why IBK's Q4 prediction has sparked such anticipation. A full album, especially following JUMP, would mark a milestone comeback after years of minimal group activities. Many believe the timing is ideal, especially as BLACKPINK rides the wave of tour success and renewed global interest. BLACKPINK's DEADLINE World Tour keeps the momentum alive Currently, BLACKPINK is touring the globe with their latest concert series, DEADLINE. The world tour features 31 scheduled performances across 16 cities. It brings the group's stage power back to major arenas. After making stops in Goyang and Los Angeles, the group is now headed to Chicago on July 18, with thousands of fans expected to attend. Will Q4 bring BLACKPINK's big comeback? As of now, nothing has been officially announced. But the very mention of a potential Q4 release has breathed new life into the fandom. Social media is already abuzz with theories, wishlists, and dream tracklists. For many fans, a comeback album would signal a full-circle return and set the tone for the next chapter in BLACKPINK's legacy.
