The singer and rapper has teamed up with pop band Maroon 5 for its new track, “Priceless.” The group is hoping for something of a comeback, tapping into Lisa’s incredible popularity and talent — and the plan has worked, at least in the beginning. The collaboration debuts on rankings in many major markets, and Lisa scores another successful non-solo tune in the United Kingdom. Her always-expanding list of appearances on the main singles chart in that country underscores just how instrumental collaborations have been to her success outside of Blackpink. Lisa and Maroon 5’s “Priceless” “Priceless” is Lisa’s sixth hit under her own name on the Official Singles chart. That list ranks the most popular tracks across the U.K., blending both sales and streaming activity during the latest frame. The Maroon 5 duet opens at No. 69. Lisa is quickly racking up hits, but Maroon 5 has been doing so for years. The band earns its twenty-eighth win on the Official Singles chart and has claimed at least a dozen successes on both of the purchase-only rosters. Half of Lisa’s Hits are Collaborations Lisa’s half-dozen appearances on the Official Singles chart are split evenly between entirely solo efforts and collaborations. Her first three charting tracks — “Lalisa,” “Money,” and “Rockstar” — did not credit any other artists. Her most recent three, however, have benefited in part from the fan bases of other acts. The Blackpink star scored her first successful collaboration on the Official Singles chart in August 2024, when “New Woman” with Rosalía debuted at No. 55. It spent just one frame on the tally before dropping off. In February of this year, she was joined by Doja Cat and Raye on “Born Again,” one of the biggest singles from Alter Ego . That track nearly reached the top 10, peaking at a lucky No. 13 and sticking around for seven frames. Now with “Priceless,” Lisa has collected a trio of charting collaborations in a row. Half of her solo output on the Official Singles chart includes other musical acts. Lisa Reaches the Top 10 with Her New Single “Priceless” performs significantly better when looking at pure purchases when compared to the main songs ranking. The title opens at No. 8 on the Official Singles Downloads chart and comes in one spot lower on the Official Singles Sales roster.
