Black Pink made the list alongside artists�Tkay Maidza,�Leikeli47,�Nick Grant,�machineheart,�Cappa,�Youngr, and�Adiam. Though there are some international artists in the mix, the YG Entertainment�girl group are the only ones to represent Asia.�

'Entertainment Weekly' said of Black Pink:

"All-female girl groups are everywhere in South Korea, but the bass-heavy sounds of the four-piece supergroup BLACKPINK stand out in a big way. With opening lyrics like "Hey boy. Make ya whistle like a missile," the quartet's latest single promises an unabashedly playful ride from the start. The song quickly turns up the heat, layering irresistible finger snaps, a saccharine bridge, electric guitar riffs, mammoth bass, and, of course, cow bell-accompanied whistles. The track, taken from the ladies' debut EP, Square One, peaked at No. 1 in South Korea, and it wouldn't sound entirely out of place occupying a similarly lofty position on American charts, either."
