About This Song
June 26, 2020 marked the end of a two-year silence for Blackpink. The group dropped How You Like That as their first new music since April 2019, signaling a massive return to the global stage. Produced by Teddy Park alongside R.Tee and 24, the track fuses EDM, hip-hop, trap, and pop into a grandiose soundscape defined by explosive beat drops. Teddy co-wrote the lyrics with Danny Chung to match the song's aggressive yet confident narrative about resilience.
The accompanying music video directed by Seokwoo Lee of Lumpens debuted simultaneously with the audio. It features the four members, Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa, in elaborate costumes within sets that include golden statues and a scene where they emerge from a giant egg to symbolize rebirth. This visual package helped the video shatter YouTube records by amassing over 86.3 million views in its first 24 hours.
Critics praised the production quality and the group's vocal delivery, noting how the song blended Western pop sensibilities with distinct K-pop aesthetics. The track became an instant cultural touchstone, sparking dance challenges on TikTok and Instagram while cementing the group's status as one of the world's leading girl groups.
