BLACKPINK officially kicked off their much-anticipated reunion tour in July 2025, wrapping up on January 26, 2026. As the curtains fell on their live performances, fans were left with an emotional farewell and questions about the group’s next moves. On February 23, BLACKPINK, under YG Entertainment, teased a new musical era with the release of the music video teaser for “GO,” the lead track from their upcoming mini album, [DEADLINE].
The last time fans experienced new music from Lisa, Jennie, Rosé, and Jisoo was following a three-year hiatus. Just a week into their world tour on July 11, 2025, the group delighted fans with the bass-heavy single “JUMP.” This track marked a declaration of independence while simultaneously celebrating the group’s unity after the break. The music video showcased a thrilling chaos led by an infectious beat, capped with the now-iconic line, “BLACKPINK in your area.”
With “GO,” the group is poised to take a new creative direction, departing from their established themes of chaos. Early visuals indicate the members will embark on a breathtaking journey across diverse landscapes, embracing a sense of purpose and exploration. The teaser employs surreal cinematography as the quartet confidently grips crossed oars, hinting at the depth of their forthcoming story.
The title “GO” is featured prominently against a dynamic backdrop, with its letters appearing rapidly in different languages, highlighted by swirling imagery and an eruption of white sand forming the word. This stylistic shift generates excitement among fans who are eager to see how BLACKPINK reinvents itself.
The highly awaited mini album, [DEADLINE], is set to release on February 27 at 2 PM (KST) and will consist of five tracks, including the title piece “GO,” the previously released single “JUMP,” as well as “Me and My,” “Champion,” and “Fxxxboy.” YG Entertainment has promised that the album will fulfill its title by capturing “irreversible peak moments” and display “the most radiant and defining present” of BLACKPINK. With this journey into new musical realms, fans can look forward to an exhilarating evolution in BLACKPINK’s artistry.
