The K-pop band, BLACKPINK is on the cusp of becoming the biggest girl group in the world. Formed by YG Entertainment, the band just released its Korean-language, debut full-length called, simply, The Album, and it's packed with relentlessly catchy bangers. We give it a listen on this week's New Music Friday and talk about BLACKPINK's march toward global domination.
Also on the show: The West Coast rapper YG is back with his fifth album in as many years, the Icelandic singer Jónsi has another collection of magical melodies, and the guitar-rock artist Laura Jane Grace surprise-drops a new album called Stay Alive.
