Blackpink Breaks the Silence: New Mini-Album 'Deadline' Drops After Three-Year Hiatus
Blackpink makes a triumphant return with their new mini-album Deadline, their first official release in over three years, featuring the dynamic track "Go" and marking a new chapter in their global journey.
Blackpink has officially ended their hiatus, releasing their new mini album, Deadline, today, marking their first official release in over three years. The album features five tracks, including the single “Jump,” and stands as the third mini album in Blackpink’s impressive career.

Blackpink initially announced Deadline, sharing its name with the group’s recent world tour, in January. Deadline follows 2018’s Square Up and 2019’s Kill This Love. Their most recent full-length album, Born Pink, arrived in 2022.
Ahead of the mini album, Blackpink shared “Jump,” their official comeback single, in July. For the single, the quartet of Jisoo, Jenny, Rosé, and Lisa enlisted an army of songwriters — TEDDY, Diplo, 24, Zikai, Claudia Valentina, Jumpa, Malachiii, and Jesse Bluu. The track was produced by Diplo, 24, Boaz Van De Beatz , Zecca, and Ape Drums.
Since releasing Born Pink, the members of Blackpink have largely focused on their solo careers. Rosé dropped solo LP Rosie, which included “Apt,” her hit collaboration with Bruno Mars. Lisa released her own solo album, Alter Ego, last year and also appeared in the most recent season of The White Lotus, which was shot in Thailand. Last year, Jennie released her debut solo project, Ruby, while Jisoo released her EP, Amortage.
After a break for solo endeavors, Blackpink reunited last year for their Deadline World Tour. It kicked off at Seoul’s Goyang Stadium and wrapped in Hong Kong in January. In August, Blackpink became the first K-pop girl group to headline Wembley Stadium. During the show, they paid tribute to the Spice Girls, performing their 1996 debut single, “Wannabe.”
YG Entertainment, the group’s record label, stated around the release of Deadline, “Even amid the intense schedule of a large-scale world tour, the members devoted significant time and effort to perfecting this album. We are confident it is a body of work that encapsulates both the individual musical capabilities of the four members and their synergy as a team. We ask for your continued support as Blackpink once again leaves a meaningful mark on the global music industry.”
