“Rockstar” will be Lisa’s first release under RCA Records, a significant move in her career. The deal, made in partnership with her own company, LLOUD, allows her to retain ownership of her master recordings, giving her greater creative control and financial benefit. This partnership marks a strategic step in expanding her reach and impact in the music industry.

Prior to this, Lisa released two singles, “Lalisa” and “Money,” through YG Entertainment and Interscope Records. Both tracks were immensely successful, with “Money” achieving a milestone as the first solo K-pop hit to surpass a billion streams on Spotify in 2023. These releases solidified her position as a powerful solo artist, capable of breaking records and transcending boundaries in the global music scene.

In a statement made in April, Lisa expressed her enthusiasm about joining RCA Records. “I’m super excited to be joining the RCA family, and I am confident they are the best team to create a bigger movement in my solo career,” she said. Her optimism and confidence in this new venture hint at exciting projects and further achievements on the horizon. “Looking forward to showing the world everything we have been preparing,” she added, fueling anticipation for what’s to come.

As the release date for “Rockstar” approaches, fans are buzzing with speculation and excitement. The single’s artwork, shared on her social media, adds to the intrigue, promising a fresh and bold aesthetic. With her proven track record and the backing of a major label, Lisa’s “Rockstar” is poised to make a significant impact.

In the ever-evolving world of K-pop, Lisa continues to stand out, not just as a member of BLACKPINK but as a formidable solo artist. Her journey from debuting with BLACKPINK to embarking on a solo career marked by record-breaking achievements is a testament to her talent and hard work. “Rockstar” is more than just a new single; it’s a statement of her growth and her readiness to take on new challenges and reach new heights.

As the clock ticks down to June 27, the anticipation builds, with fans and industry watchers alike eager to see how Lisa’s new release will shape the future of her solo career. “Rockstar” promises to be a defining moment for Lisa, showcasing her unique artistry and solidifying her place as a global music icon.
