Rosé is ready to win a Grammy, kick out a series of famous names, and avenge BTS

Recently, predictions that BLACKPINK's Rosé will become the first artist to win a GRAMMY awar.d have been continuously appearing in the international media. Many fans expect that she will set a record to bring glory to the Korean entertainment industry.

Recently, the media outlet Total Music Awards published an article titled "Early 2026 Grammy Predictions: Kendrick Lamar, Lady Gaga and the List of Nominees". The article mentioned predictions about the next Grammy winners - such as Lady Gaga, Kendrick Lamar and Bad Bunny, while the name of Rosé (BLACKPINK) appeared with high expectations.

Rosé was mentioned alongside Bruno Mars in the "Top Contenders" section, due to the pair's collaboration on "APT.". According to the article, the song will be eligible to compete at the 2026 Grammys. According to the Total Music Awards, "APT." will be nominated for Best Pop Duo/Group.

The song is also considered worthy of being nominated for the most prestigious Record of the Year awar.d, according to the Total Music Awards, but considering that voting for the 2026 Grammys will begin 16 months after the release of "APT.", it could be at a disadvantage. Overall, this means that Rosé could become the first K-pop artist to win a Grammy, especially given the phenomenal success of "APT." on a global scale.

In addition, APT is also highly regarded to the point of being able to compete in one of the most prestigious categories of the GRAMMY, "Record of the Year". However, according to the Total Music Awards, the song may face some disadvantages when considering the time of release. The 2026 GRAMMY voting will take place 16 months after APT's release, which may affect the song's popularity in the eyes of voters.

This not only marks an important milestone in Rosé's solo career but also opens up the opportunity for the female singer to make history for Kpop at the GRAMMY. More importantly, this could also be an opportunity for her to "take revenge" on BTS - the famous group that has "missed" the GRAMMY victory many times despite receiving many prestigious nominations.

Previously, BTS made history by becoming the first K-pop group to be nominated at the GRAMMY but still failed to win, despite their resounding success globally. This has created a lot of debate about how the Academy recognizes K-pop artists, and at the same time, the international fan community is full of regret. According to Total, if Rosé wins, she will not only affirm her personal talent but also become the pioneer to bring home the first GRAMMY trophy for a K-pop artist, thereby proving that the Hallyu wave is completely worthy of a place at the most prestigious music awar.d on the planet.

In addition, Rose has recently revealed her ambition to reach the international market. On the morning of February 20, Dispatch reported that Blackpink singer Rosé had withdrawn from the Korea Music Copyright Association (KMCA). Rosé filed an application to terminate her contract with KMCA on October 31 last year. After a three-month extension, the contract finally ended on the 31st of last month.

She is the first Korean singer to withdraw from the KMCA since Seo Taiji (in 2002). Going forward, all of Rosé's music copyrights will be managed by American publishers. The profits will be distributed by her current management company, Atlantic Records, which is based in the United States. Atlantic Records works with copyright management companies in the United States. The company manages copyrights arising internationally through ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors, Publishers and Artists) and BMI (Broadcast Music Industry Association).

Dispatch emphasized: "This is the way foreign artists often choose. Since Rosé is active in the US, she hopes to be able to manage her copyrights more effectively." A music industry insider explained why Rosé withdrew from the KMCA: "In Rosé's case, there is no need to manage copyrights separately in both the US and Korea because it would cost double the fees."
