According to BLINKS the team-up could be the “collaboration of the century.”
The song with Lady Gaga isn't the first time the K-pop group has worked with a foreign artist.
In 2018, BLACKPINK collaborated with British singer Dua Lipa for “Kiss and Make Up” which made it into the Billboard Hot 100.
“Chromatica” was initially scheduled to be released on April 10, but was postponed due to the coronavirus.
At the time she tweeted, “This is such a hectic and scary time for all of us, and while I believe art is one of the strongest things we have to provide joy and healing to each other during times like this, it just doesn't feel right to me to release this album with all that is going during this global pandemic.”
Lady Gaga has still to announce the date for her album's release.
