BLACKPINK’s Rosé Leaves KOMCA to Focus on Global Music Rights
BLACKPINK’s Rosé has officially parted ways with the Korea Music Copyright Association (KOMCA), making her the first major Korean artist to do so in over two decades.
According to KOMCA, Rosé submitted her request to withdraw on October 31, 2024, and her contract officially ended on January 31, 2025. The organization, which represents over 50,000 members, plays a key role in protecting artists’ copyrights and collecting royalties.
Rosé’s decision comes after the massive success of her song “APT.” last October, which further solidified her position on the global stage. As she focuses more on international projects, managing her copyrights overseas is expected to be more efficient.
Last September, she signed an exclusive contract with Atlantic Records, a major label under Warner Music Group.
Moving forward, her copyrights will be handled through Atlantic in partnership with the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP), which represents nearly a million songwriters and composers.

Days later, the fan updated on her social media and expressed her gratitude to Adekunle for the 50 cartons of Indomie for her business.

During her appearance on her partner’s podcast, the singer then confirmed that her album is coming soon; however, a date is yet to be given.
Nigerian actress, Mary Njoku, reacts to the Ibom Air drama involving Miss Comfort Emmanson.
The actress expressed her disappointment with the way Miss Comfort was handled by the security of the airline. It can be noted that the passenger was dragged out of the plane, exposing parts of her body as they forced her out.
“I understand removing her from the plane, that’s not the issue. What I cannot understand is stripping her while doing so and then putting it all over the internet.”
The actress then criticized the airline for how they handled the situation and proceeded to take it online. She compared it to when police arrest people yet remain comported.
