"Ice Cream" is a song by South Korean girl group Blackpink and American singer Selena Gomez. It was released on August 28, 2020, through YG Entertainment and Interscope Records, as the second pre-release single from the group's debut studio album, The Album (2020). The song was composed by Gomez with Tommy Brown, Mr. Franks, Teddy, Bekuh Boom, Victoria Monét, 24, and Ariana Grande, while its lyrics were penned by Boom, Monét, and Teddy. "Ice Cream" is an electropop and bubblegum pop song with elements of trap. Lyrically, the song mainly consists of ice cream-related double entendres.

"Ice Cream" received critical acclaim and appeared on numerous rankings for the best songs of the year, including lists by Billboard, Rolling Stone, and The Associated Press. The song peaked at number 13 on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming the first single by a female Korean act to enter the top twenty of the chart and subsequently becoming the longest-charting song by a female Korean act on the Hot 100. Elsewhere, the song peaked within the top ten on both the Billboard Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S., as well as charts in South Korea, El Salvador, Hungary, Malaysia and Singapore. It also has figured within the record charts in other 22 countries.

An accompanying music video for the song features Blackpink and Selena Gomez in a number of colorful sets themed around ice cream and was filmed in South Korea and the United States. It garnered 79.08 million views in its first 24 hours and became the third biggest 24-hour debut for a music video at the time. The song received several accolades such as nominations for Best Collaboration at the MTV Europe Music Awards, Music Video of 2020 at the People's Choice Awards, and Best K-Pop at the MTV Video Music Awards.

Background and release

[edit]

In an interview for Radio.com, Gomez revealed that she was first introduced to Blackpink after meeting Jisoo and Rosé during New York Fashion Week in 2018, while Blackpink shared that they had been big fans of Gomez's growing up, having danced to her music as trainees.[1]

On July 23, 2020, YG Entertainment released a teaser poster for a new collaboration single between Blackpink and an unnamed artist, set to be released in August.[2] Fans on social media started the "#AriPink" hashtag in hopes that the collaboration would be with singer Ariana Grande.[3] On July 28, the band announced their first Korean studio album, The Album, would be released on October 2, 2020.[4] On August 11, 2020, the unnamed artist was revealed to be American singer Selena Gomez, with Grande later being confirmed as one of the songwriters.[5] Ten days later, it was revealed that the title of the collaboration would be "Ice Cream".[6] On August 24, a teaser video featuring Blackpink and Gomez on video call together while the song played in the background was released.[7] Teaser photos of Blackpink and Gomez were released from August 24 to August 26. The teaser photo of Blackpink member Jisoo was released on August 24,[8] photos of members Jennie and Rosé were released on August 25,[9][10] and photos of Lisa as well as Gomez were released on August 26.[11][12] On August 27, 2020, Blackpink released a music video teaser for "Ice Cream".[13]

Upon the song's release, Gomez released an ice cream flavor inspired by the collaboration with Blackpink with Serendipity Ice Cream, in which she has an ownership stake, called "Cookies and Cream Remix".[14][15][16]

Synopsis

[edit]
A scene in the music video where Blackpink appears in a bright pink ice cream parlor, holding ice cream and wearing black-and-white outfits.

The music video shows Gomez and Blackpink in a number of colorful[21] sets and outfits. It opens with Gomez in a candy-striped bikini with gold hoop earrings and a white sailor hat, driving a pastel-colored ice cream truck filled with Serendipity Ice Cream. The ice cream truck has the word "Selpink" written on it, a combination of "Selena" and "Blackpink".[33] The members of Blackpink appear next on-screen, popping up smiling behind ice-cream shaped cardboard cutouts. During her first verse, Jennie appears in a blue Care Bears-printed dress, wearing matching blue eyeliner;[34] later in the video, she is joined by a capybara.[35] Blackpink are then shown riding bikes and dancing in a colorful, Candy Land-like[16] cul-de-sac,[14] while Gomez stands outside of the ice cream truck wearing a Puma romper with a green visor. Gomez appears in a polka-dot yellow top with blue culottes for her next verse,[36] standing in front of a wall which reads "Ice Queen" in graffiti.[35] Rosé then appears alongside a golden retriever.[37] Next, Jisoo walks out of a cherry-patterned car parked in a cherry-patterned garage, holding a cherry and wearing cherry-themed accessories with a diadem.[34] For the second chorus, Blackpink dance in a pastel pink tennis court,[38] holding tennis rackets and wearing white tennis skirts and crop tops,[39][35] while Selena is shown sitting in a Chevrolet,[36] sporting a 1950s pin-up-inspired updo and wearing a yellow plaid off-the-shoulder romper.[33][40] Blackpink appear in a bright pink ice cream parlor for the second post-chorus, holding ice cream and wearing black-and-white outfits.[41] Blackpink are shown dancing and holding cat ice cream pillows during Lisa's rap verse.[34] As the song closes, Blackpink drive around in metallic pink Mercedes-Benz Power Wheels cars and, in a separate scene, play on a blow-up slide, wearing crochet outfits.[42]

Performance video

[edit]

On September 2, an animated dance performance version of the music video was released via the group's YouTube channel.[43] In it, Blackpink and Gomez appear as 3-D Zepeto avatars dressed in outfits similar to those worn in the original music video, and virtually team up to perform a dance routine to the song, that also included parts of the original choreography, while surrounded by "suspended ice cream cones" and other related imagery.[44] The video gained over 142 million views as of December 2023.
