Kiss and Make Up is a song recorded by the British singer-songwriter Dua Lipa featuring BLACKPINK.
The song was released worldwide on October 19, 2018. It is a vibrant, rhythmic bilingual dance track about trying to “Kiss and Make Up” before a relationship ends in break up. Built around the repetition of the titular phrase and thriving on the five women's addictive vocals, it features the four members of BLACKPINK -- Jisoo, Rosé, Lisa, and Jennie -- as they weave Korean and English with Dua Lipa’s huskier tone.
It is the first time the two acts have worked together, and the first time BLACKPINK has been featured as a whole on another artist’s album.
Background
On May 6, while in South Korea for her concert in Seoul, Dua Lipa met up with Jennie and Lisa.
The meet up happened ahead of Dua Lipa’s performance at Yes 24 Live Hall, located in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul. The concert marked the singer’s first solo show in the country following her performance at Pentaport Rock Festival last year.
After the concert, when Dua contacted BLACKPINK asking them if they would like to collaborate with her, they accepted and she sent them the song. They recorded the song, changing some parts into Korean.
Lyrics
Dua Lipa Jisoo Jennie Rosé Lisa
Bang my head, bang my head against the wall
I'm scared, I'm falling
Losing all, losing all my control
And I'm tired of talking
Feel myself saying the same old things
But this love's important
Put your hands all up on me
Tired of hearing sorry
Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
How about we leave this party?
'Cause all I want is you up on me
Tired of hearing sorry
Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss, kiss and make up
못 떠나고 뭘 하고 있는 건지
언? 가는 다 끝날 걸
다시 고쳐 볼
수는 없을지
아무런 말도 넌 하지 마
Put your hands all up on me
Tired of hearing sorry
Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
'Cause all I want is you up on me
Tired of hearing sorry
Kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss, kiss and make up
Work this whole thing out
Work this whole thing out
Tired of hearing sorry
Tired of hearing sorry
Kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss, kiss and make up
Bang my head, bang my head against the wall
I'm scared, I'm falling
Losing all, losing all my control
And I'm tired of talking
Feel myself saying the same old things
But this love's important
Put your hands all up on me
Tired of hearing sorry
Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
How about we leave this party?
'Cause all I want is you up on me
Tired of hearing sorry
Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss, kiss and make up

Put your hands all up on me
Tired of hearing sorry
Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
'Cause all I want is you up on me
Tired of hearing sorry

Kiss and make, kiss, kiss and make up
Kiss, kiss and make up
Work this whole thing out
Work this whole thing out
Tired of hearing sorry
Tired of hearing sorry
