Hi guys, my name is Ada Kashyap. I love to write, sing and do other things, and today, I am going to write about my favourite band. I hope you like the blog!

My favourite Band:

I love the band called Blackpink. They are a South Korean girl band. The members are Rose, Lisa, Jennie, and Jisoo.

Blackpink formed when YG Entertainment held a global audition for pre-teens or teenagers to create a new girl group, after launching its first major one, 2NE1, in 2009.

Referred to as the "biggest girl group in the world," Blackpink is the world's most successful Korean girl group. Their songs are the highest-charting Korean songs on the US Billboard Hot 100. One of their songs, "Ice Cream" (2020), is peaking at number 13, and their other song, “Born Pink” (2022), is peaking at number 1 on the Billboard 200. It is also the best-selling album of all time by a Korean girl group.

They were the first girl group to top the Billboard Artists 100 and the first Korean girl group to top the Billboard Emerging Artists chart. Blackpink also became the first female Korean band to receive a certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) with their single "Ddu-Ddu Ddu-Du'' (2018). Its music video was the first video by a Korean group to surpass one billion views.

Their 2018 song "Kiss and Makeup," a collaboration with Dua Lipa, was the first by a Korean group to receive a certification from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and a platinum certification from the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA). The group's debut studio album, “The Album” (2020), was the first album by a Korean girl group to sell more than one million copies and the highest-charting female Korean album on the Billboard 200 at the time.
