Maroon 5 invites Lisa from Blackpink to join them on stage. - Musical group Maroon 5 has identified Blackpink's Lisa as the latest collaborator on their upcoming project
Get ready, folks! Maroon 5 has dropped a fresh single, and this time, they’ve teamed up with global sensation Lisa of the Thai K-pop group, Blackpink. Her age? A sprightly 28.
The accompanying music video for "Priceless" is reminiscent of the movie "Mr. & Mrs. Smith," where the chemistry between 46-year-old Adam Levine (the frontman of Maroon 5) and Lisa sizzles with a blend of romantic tension and intense combat sequences. Lisa has made her mark in the acting world too, playing the character "Mook" in the third season of "The White Lotus."
Reviving the Roots
Levine offers a peek into the conceptualization of this new pop banger, claiming to have recorded the intro on his iPhone as a voice note[3]. For him, "Priceless" signifies something much more than just another single - it symbolizes a musical comeback. He shares, "I couldn't help but get emotional while recording it, for it represents our roots that fans have been yearning to hear again for over two decades. It's about time we returned to them[3]."
James Valentine, the lead guitarist of the band, echoes this sentiment, expressing that the feel of "Priceless" brings him back to the early days of Maroon 5[3].
"Priceless" serves as a tantalizing sneak peek into Maroon 5's upcoming eighth studio album. Although the exact release date and album title are yet to be unveiled, it's confirmed that the album will drop in the summer of 2025[1][2][4]. Stay tuned for more updates on the much-anticipated title and release date! Levine recently hinted that fans could expect the album as early as the summer of this year[4]. They’re also set to embark on a world tour once the album drops, with performances set to commence in the fall of 2025.
