The group’s last studio album, Born Pink, dropped in 2022, and since then, solo projects have taken center stage — with Jennie making waves in Hollywood, Lisa dominating charts globally, and Rosé continuing to charm with her vocals. Still, fans argue that the group deserves a fresh musical chapter together.

💬 Fan Reactions:

• “WHERE. IS. THE. ALBUM. Stop testing our patience.”
• “YG is the most unserious kpop agency i believe.”
• “YG ain’t ever followed a deadline lmao.”

Despite the criticism, there’s no denying the sheer scale and hype surrounding the Deadline tour. With BLACKPINK returning to stages worldwide, expectations are sky-high — not just for performances, but for a potential new era of music.

So, is BLACKPINK’s Deadline a countdown to something bigger? BLINKs can only hope.
