Blackpink member Rosé is reportedly considering an offer to join Black Label after officially parting ways with YG Entertainment as a solo artist. While Blackpink as a group still operates under YG, all four members: Jennie, Rosé, Lisa and Jisoo have ended their individual contracts with the agency. Black Label, led by producer Teddy, is currently home to artists such as Jeon Somi, Taeyang, Zion.T and Park Bo Gum.
Will Blackpink’s Rosé join Black Label?
Newsen reported on Monday morning that the only Blackpink member who has yet to sign a deal or launch her own personal label is considering teaming up with producer Teddy. Teddy has been a key producer behind many of Blackpink’s top tracks since the debut of the girl group’s first single, Square One. Rosé previously mentioned that she was indeed the fifth member of Blackpink. Following the reports, the agency clarified its stance.

YG Entertainment, which once held a majority stake in The Black Label with a 45% share, has now reduced its ownership to just 21%. Furthermore, in June 2023, The Black Label held a board meeting to move its headquarters to the Hannam W Office, which was seen as a strategic decision. It is believed that this relocation signals a clear intention to completely sever ties with the parent company.
Currently, Jennie has launched her own label ODD ATELIER, Lisa has founded LLOUD, and Jisoo has teamed up with her brother to create BLISSOO.
