The multiplatinum band Maroon 5, winner of three Grammy Awards, has made a strong return to the music scene with the release of their new single "PRICELESS,” a historic collaboration with K-pop star Lisa, a member of BLACKPINK. Released on May 2 through 222/Interscope Records, the song marks the first time the group has worked with an artist from this genre, blending the band’s characteristic pop rock sound with the vibrant style of the Thai rapper, singer, and dancer. The single, which is now available on digital platforms, comes with a music video directed by Aerin Moreno, known for his work with artists like Tate McRae and Tyla. Shot in downtown Los Angeles on 35 mm film, the video visually pays homage to the movie "Mr. & Mrs. Smith,” showcasing scenes that combine action and style, reflecting the fresh energy of the collaboration. "PRICELESS” is a preview of Maroon 5's eighth studio album, details of which will be revealed soon. Adam Levine, the band's vocalist, highlighted that this song represents a reconnection with the group's roots and has revived the sound that fans have been requesting for over 20 years. For his part, James Valentine, the band’s guitarist, expressed that when he heard the original demo of "PRICELESS,” he felt the same excitement he did when he saw Maroon 5 perform in 2000, as it reflects the band’s early days and marks the direction of their upcoming album. The song combines the nostalgia of Maroon 5's classic sound with a modern twist, subtly expanding their style as they explore new collaborations. In addition to their musical comeback, the band is preparing to announce a world tour, which will include dates in the United States following their successful residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM in Las Vegas, where they held 40 performances. With "PRICELESS,” Maroon 5 reaffirms their relevance in the industry and opens a new chapter by teaming up with LISA, one of the most influential figures in K-pop. This release promises to be just the beginning of a year filled with success for both the group and their fans around the world.
