aespa Drops ‘Switchblade’ Music Video Featuring Ty Dolla $ign Following Lollapalooza Debut

Riding an incredible wave of momentum, global K-op sensation aespa continues their unstoppable streak. Fresh off their monumental festival debut at Lollapalooza on Sunday (August 2), the powerhouse quartet has officially unveiled the vibrant music video for “Switchblade,” their dynamic collaborative track with American artist Ty Dolla $ign.

The visual dropped shortly after aespa’s electrifying Chicago set, which delivered one of the weekend’s most talked-about surprises. Midway through their performance at Grant Park, Ty Dolla $ign joined Karina, Giselle, Winter, and Ningning on stage for the very first live rendition of “Switchblade,” sending the festival crowd into a frenzy and cementing an already historic debut.

Brimming with pop vibrancy, the new music video matches the track’s driving production with striking wardrobe choices, intricate choreography, and undeniable chemistry among the members. Adding a playful twist to their established lore, the group trades their traditional dystopian universe for a chaotic, lighthearted high school setting, portraying delightfully eccentric student characters.

Lollapalooza served as yet another major milestone for the group’s rapidly expanding career. Backed by a live band, dynamic dancers, and a live DJ, aespa delivered a 14-song powerhouse set that seamlessly blended career-defining anthems with fresh cuts from their acclaimed second studio album, LEMONADE, which notably debuted at No. 9 on the Billboard 200. The set kicked off with their breakout smash “Black Mamba” before tearing through fan favorites like “Next Level,” “Armageddon,” “Supernova,” and “Whiplash.” Additionally, the group treated fans to the live debuts of several LEMONADE tracks, including “Can’t Help Myself,” “SHAKIN’,” and the crowd-favorite “Switchblade.”

Reflecting on the collaboration after the performance, Ty Dolla $ign shared his enthusiasm in a statement, calling it an absolute thrill to share the Lollapalooza stage with aespa once again and commending the quartet on delivering yet another unforgettable spectacle.
