Recently, American singer and songwriter Alex Warren shared a cover of an unreleased song called On My Mind on his Instagram and Tiktok accounts.
In it, Alex Warren sings with an unnamed female singer. He said: "You will never guess who is in this song".
However, right after listening to the singer's voice, fans quickly speculated that the main voice contributor was Korean singer Rose (Blackpink member).
In addition, netizens discovered that Alex Warren shared a photo at the 2025 US Music Awards on Instagram, with the words "ROSE" clearly written on the vest.
On June 12, Alex Warren officially confirmed his collaboration with Rose when posting a new video featuring Rose and accompanying the song "On My Mind".
On My Mind is a song from Alex Warrens debut studio album Youll Be Alright, Kid, scheduled to be released on July 18, 2025. But according to the singer's revelation, the song "On My Mind" featuring Rose will probably be released in June.
Previously, Alex Warren released the album's first part with 10 songs. Of which, the song "Ordinary" is currently at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 - the weekly chart of hottest songs in the US.
Alex Warren was born in 2000 and is an American singer, songwriter and YouTuber. He began releasing independent music in 2021, then signed a contract with Atlantic Records in 2022.
Rose signed a contract with Atlantic Records in September 2024. Working together at a record label could be an opportunity for Blackpink singer and Alex Warren to collaborate.
Last October, Rose also collaborated with singer Bruno Mars - an artist of Atlantic Records - to create the global hit "APT..
However, Rose's release of a new song at the present time has caused mixed reactions.
The group Blackpink is about to make a comeback with a full 4-member lineup and is preparing for a world tour that will start in early July.
But on June 12, Rose was discovered by fans in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles (USA), possibly related to the collaboration schedule with Alex Warren.
Some netizens have criticized Rose for not being in Korea to practice for the upcoming tour.
On the contrary, fans also defended Rose, saying that the release schedule of songs in Alex Warren's album had been set for a long time, not an explosive act.
On the other hand, this is an official song by Alex Warren, not by Rose like APT.. Therefore, this voiceover will not have many promotional schedules, or will hinder Blackpink.
