BLACKPINK’s Jennie to Release Her First Full Solo Album “Ruby” on March 7 with Collaborations from Global Stars

OA Entertainment officially announced on the 22nd that BLACKPINK’s Jennie will release her first full solo album, “Ruby,” on March 7. The album consists of 15 tracks, including the chart-topping song “Mantra” released last October. “Ruby” is set to showcase Jennie’s musical talent and versatility, further solidifying her position in the global music scene. Notably, this album features collaborations with internationally renowned artists such as Childish Gambino, Doechii, Dominic Fike, Dua Lipa, FKJ, and Kali Uchis. These international partnerships are expected to elevate Jennie’s status in the global music market. Jennie already received significant attention for “Mantra,” which was released last October. That song topped the iTunes Top Songs chart in 47 countries, including the United States, Brazil, Singapore, the Philippines, and Mexico, and made it onto the Billboard Hot 100 for two consecutive weeks. In particular, Jennie became the first K-pop female solo artist to reach the top of the U.S. iTunes Top Songs chart. Additionally, Jennie has been included in this year’s lineup for Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, one of the most prominent music festivals in the United States. She is scheduled to perform at the event held in Indio, California, on April 13 and 20. This appearance on the world’s largest music festival stage is likely to further strengthen Jennie’s global presence. The other members of BLACKPINK are also actively pursuing solo careers. Jisoo is set to release her second solo album on February 14, while Lisa will debut her first full solo album, “Alter Ego,” on February 28. Rosé released her debut solo album, “Rosie,” on December 6 of last year.
