For the first time since 2001, a girl group has made it to the cover page of Rolling Stone magazine. The first two girl groups were Destiny’s Child and Spice Girls. However, the June edition of Rolling Stone will feature the South Korean girl group Blackpink, which has created a history by gracing the cover page. Blackpink comprises four members - Jisoo, Jennie, Rose, and Lisa.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Lisa, one of the four members of Blackpink, revealed that there was a point in time when she had nearly quit music. She said this while the members were talking about how they make their music, dealing with the stardom demands, and also their early days with YG Entertainment.

In fact, it was the initial days of rigorous training with YG Entertainment that made Lisa consider the option of quitting music, much before the girls tasted success.  The girl group was required to undergo a rigorous system at YG that included them getting tested every single month. Reminiscing the old times, Lisa told the magazine, “Like, when? Do we have to get tested every single month? I’d call my mom (in Thailand), wanting to quit, and she’d tell me to hang on just another year, just hang on.”
