Speculations rise over the licensing of BLACKPINK Jennie's unreleased solo track 'You and Me'

It's been discovered that Jennie's unreleased song "You and Me", previously performed during BLACKPINK's ongoing world tour 'Born Pink', has been licensed by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP)

The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers is known to license public performance rights of musical works to venues, broadcasters, and digital streaming services. Based on the licensing of Jennie's "You and Me" with the organization, some have raised speculations that Jennie may be preparing for a solo comeback, her first since the release of "SOLO" in 2018. 

Additionally, some believe that the possibility of Jennie's solo comeback is yet another hint toward BLACKPINK's speculated contract renewal with YG Entertainment. The members are expected to reach a decision on their exclusive contract renewals by the end of this month.

Not all registered songs in ASCAP are released, sometimes it's just for copyrights claim

This sounds like leverage for contract discussions to me, not possible solo teasing.

The contract discussion for Blackpink has been a messy one. Jennie even warned us about all of this. If anyone remembers the picture where she a bit stone faced stood in front of a wall that said "Don't trust the media". It's up in the air for anything, but my overall prediction is they will all renew. But going by literally everything that's been posted and the change in their attitude and body language. In short miserable. But going by that, things aren't going the way they want or hoped.

Smiles don't mean happy. Be cognizant of what the body and expression tells you, not the mouth, and like Jennie says, don't trust the media. They can literally make you see whatever they want.
