Official YouTube Channel of BLACKPINK Now Passed 60 Million
Popular K-pop girl group BLACKPINK has reached another milestone as a report has said that the group's official YouTube page has already surpassed 60 million. The channel reached its subscriber count as of April 13, KST.
Last year, the group was the most-subscribed-to female artist of all time and surpassed American female artist Ariana Grande's subscriber count. They, later on, exceeded the subscriber counts of popular Western artists like rapper Eminem, Ed Sheeran, and DJ Marshmello. They are officially the second most subscribed-to musical artist in the world to date, just right after Justin Bieber.
With the group's continuous growing popularity, there is a massive chance that the group may still be able to surpass JB's YouTube subscriber count.
BLACKPINK officially debuted in August 2016 and released its first single album titled "Square One." The songs "Boombayah" and "Whistle" were included in this album and gained massive success in the music charts.
Their massive international popularity has also got them to collaborate with U.S. artists such as Dua Lipa and Selena Gomez.
A music critic previously commented that BLACKPINK's group image is one of the major factors to why they stand out from the other K-pop groups out there. He explains that they have powerful swag and a powerful, luxurious image. This is also why many popular luxury brands like Dior and Chanel would really like to have them as their brand ambassadors. BLACKPINK has also collaborated with a lot of international brands, from apparel to even video games.
He also said that due to the group's great image, the members have become like role models for K-pop fans regardless of background, nationality, or race.
The group not only focuses on their music, but they also balance it off with their fashion and visuals. Everything from their fashion sense to their music style and group brand all blend well together to make one of the perfect K-pop girl groups to date.
