Fans believe Rosé may have partnered up with an American record label while also signing with THEBLACKLABEL.
After THEBLACKLABEL confirmed the BLACKPINK member as an artist under their management, Rosé addressed her fans directly on Instagram. She spoke about the management aspect of her contract through an Instagram post, messages to her Instagram community chat, and statements to reporters at the airport. This clarification led fans to understand that THEBLACKLABEL's role is strictly management of her personal activities.
Following the news, the mention of a "global record label" in THEBLACKLABEL's announcement has sparked widespread speculation about where Rosé might be producing her music
BLINKs were sent into a frenzy on X (formerly Twitter), particularly with rumors that Rosé is gearing up to announce a partnership with the major American label, Atlantic Records, home to internationally acclaimed artists like Coldplay, Bruno Mars, Charlie Puth, Ed Sheeran, and Cardi B.
Fans were quick to find evidence, such as several interactions from Atlantic Records executives. For instance, Drew Chekas Maniscalco, the Vice President in charge of Streaming and Sales, reposted the announcement of Rosé’s signing with THEBLACKLABEL.
Additionally, high-ranking officials like Kevin Weaver, the President of Atlantic Records, Michael Kyser, the President of Black Music, and Grace Kim James, Marketing Director, have all started following Rosé on social media.
Key personnel from Atlantic Records such as Taylor Apel, Coordinator for Press & Communications Strategy, and Daniel Parrot, Vice President of Physical Sales, and many more, have shown support by following and liking Rosé's posts.
