For one of the biggest music acts on the planet, BLACKPINK has a surprisingly compact catalog. If you’ve ever tried to queue their entire discography for a road trip, you might have noticed you ran out of tracks much faster than expected.

So, what is the exact number? Let’s break down the math behind BLACKPINK’s discography, including group releases, solos, collaborations, and Japanese versions.

How Many Songs Does BLACKPINK Have? (Including Solos)

As of 2026, BLACKPINK has officially released 37 original group songs. This total includes their Korean and English tracks across their studio albums, their EPs, and non-album singles like “The Girls.” If you include their 17 Japanese-translated versions and 3 major Western artist collaborations, their official group catalog reaches 57 tracks.

The table below provides a quick breakdown of how these songs are distributed across their group releases, translations, and individual solo efforts.

CategorySong CountKey Examples & Notable Tracks
Original Group Songs (Korean & English)37“DDU-DU DDU-DU”, “How You Like That”, “Pink Venom”, “JUMP”, “GO”
Japanese Versions (Translated re-recordings)17“Boombayah (Japanese Ver.)”, “Lovesick Girls (Japanese Ver.)”
Official Featured Collaborations3“Kiss and Make Up” (with Dua Lipa), “Sour Candy” (with Lady Gaga), “SG” (with DJ Snake, Ozuna, & Megan Thee Stallion)
Member Solo Songs (All members combined)15+“SOLO” (Jennie), “LALISA” (Lisa), “On The Ground” (Rosé), “Flower” (Jisoo)

The distribution is compact, but high-impact! Let’s get into more details now. 

Why Is BLACKPINK’s Discography So Small?

Other third-generation K-pop giants like Twice or BTS have hundreds of tracks in their discography. As compared to them, BLACKPINK’s total of 37 original group songs seems incredibly small.

This is actually a deliberate business strategy by their agency, YG Entertainment. This is referred to by fans and industry insiders as “the quality-over-quantity model” (and sometimes jokingly called “exclusivity starvation”). The strategy relies on long gaps between releases.

Instead of oversaturating the market, BLACKPINK releases highly polished, high-budget comebacks. Every single release becomes a major global event, keeping demand incredibly high.

This scarcity model has proven wildly successful. Despite fewer songs, they consistently break streaming records and sell out historic all-stadium world tours.

Breaking Down the Tracks

To understand the catalog fully, it helps to separate the songs into their respective eras and release styles.

1. The Core Group Catalog (37 Songs)

During their debut phase from 2016 to 2017, the group released five iconic singles that established their signature “black” (edgy, hip-hop) and “pink” (bubbly, pop) dual concept. This foundational era includes “Boombayah,” “Whistle,” “Playing with Fire,” “Stay,” and “As If It’s Your Last.”

Following this, their classic EP era, spanning 2018 to 2019, added eight songs to their name. These were spread across the mini-albums Square Up (headlined by the record-shattering “DDU-DU DDU-DU”) and Kill This Love, which cemented their global crossover.

Their studio album era between 2020 and 2022 contributed sixteen tracks to the catalog. Both The Album in 2020 and Born Pink in 2022 featured exactly eight songs each.

Most recently, the highly anticipated 2026 EP Deadline expanded their discography with five fresh tracks. This release added the hardstyle pre-release hit “JUMP”, the high-energy lead track “GO”, and popular b-sides “Me and My”, “Champion”, and “Fxxxboy.”

2. The Japanese Versions (17 Songs)

Like many K-pop groups, BLACKPINK re-recorded several of their biggest Korean hits into Japanese for their promotions in Japan, contributing 17 songs to their total track list.

While these feature newly recorded Japanese lyrics, they are musically identical to the original releases and are generally excluded when counting unique, original songs.

3. Official Collaborations (3 Songs)

Additionally, BLACKPINK has served as a featured artist on massive global hits. They have featured Western superstars on their own albums, most notably Selena Gomez on “Ice Cream” and Cardi B on “Bet You Wanna.”

They have also lent their vocals to three official external collaborations. Their first major crossover occurred in 2018 with “Kiss and Make Up” alongside Dua Lipa, followed by their legendary feature on Lady Gaga’s “Sour Candy” in 2020.

In 2021, they teamed up with DJ Snake, Ozuna, and Megan Thee Stallion for the multilingual bop “SG.”

The Solo Era: Jennie, Lisa, Rosé, and Jisoo

Each member of BLACKPINK has established an incredibly successful solo career. 

Jennie – 10+ Songs

Jennie made history as the first member to venture into solo territory back in late 2018 with the aptly named “SOLO,” which immediately topped charts globally.

She followed this up in 2023 with the sultry, dance-heavy track “You & Me,” which had already become a fan favorite during the Born Pink world tour. Eventually, Jennie expanded her creative freedom by establishing her independent label, Odd Atelier.

Lisa – 8+ Songs

Lisa shattered numerous global records with her hip-hop-centric 2021 debut single album LALISA. Its title track is called “Lalisa” and the viral B-side sensation “Money.”

She further released massive English-language hits, including “Rockstar,” the Rosalía-assisted track “New Woman,” and the dreamy pop anthem “Moonlit Floor.” These releases culminated in her highly anticipated solo album, Alter Ego.

Rosé – 8+ Songs

Rosé officially debuted her solo music with the single album, -R-, in 2021. It featured the hit tracks “On The Ground” and “Gone.”

Later, she took a massive artistic leap by releasing her highly acclaimed debut full-length solo album, rosie. The project received immense praise from critics and fans alike for its incredibly raw, vulnerable songwriting.

Jisoo – 8 Songs

Jisoo beautifully completed the group’s initial solo rollout in early 2023 with her debut single album ME. It featured the viral smash hit “Flower” and the upbeat B-side “All Eyes On Me.”

“Flower” instantly became a global pop cultural phenomenon. Its iconic choreography took over social media platforms everywhere. Alongside her highly successful acting career, Jisoo has continued with her exciting solo project, AMORTAGE.

Conclusion: BLACKPINK Is The True Example For Less Is More

For a group that has dominated global charts, stadium tours, and streaming platforms, BLACKPINK’s discography remains surprisingly compact. 

However, the relatively small catalog hasn’t slowed their success. If anything, BLACKPINK’s selective release strategy has helped turn every comeback into a major cultural event.

As they continue to expand their musical boundaries through new eras and individual projects, BLACKPINK remains the global blueprint for musical success.
