Today (June 18), The Black Label confirmed in a press statement to SportsWorldi, via Soompi, that BLACKPINK’s Rosé had signed a “management contract” with the K-pop agency “based on deep trust between [The Black Label founder and] producer Teddy Park and artist Rosé”.

“Rosé is currently preparing to meet global fans with new music, and she plans to engage in music activities worldwide in collaboration with a global record label going forward,” the label added. “We promise to provide full support to ensure that Rosé can be active in various fields.”

Notably, Teddy Park has been the producer behind BLACKPINK’s biggest hits, including ‘Pink Venom’, ‘How You Like That’, ‘Kill This Love’ and more. The producer also worked on Rosé’s debut solo single album ‘R’.

Aside from Rosé, The Black Label is also home to notable K-pop artists such as Jeon Somi, Big Bang singer Taeyang, producer and DJ R. Tee, rapper Zion.T and more.

Rosé is also the only member of BLACKPINK to not establish her own label since the girl group decided not to renew their individual contracts with longtime agency YG Entertainment. However, the quartet did re-sign for an “exclusive contract for group activities” with the agency.

In February 2024, Jisoo and Lisa officially launched their own solo companies Blissoo and LLOUD, respectively. Meanwhile, Jennie established Odd Atelier (OA) in December 2023, and has since released the single ‘Slow Motion’ with Brockhampton’s Matt Champion.
