After teasing fans earlier this week, BLACKPINK‘s member Lisa has officially unveiled the release date for her forthcoming solo album. The self-titled album, Lalisa, will arrive on September 10.
With her signature cropped bangs accented with knee-length ombré braids, Lisa stuns on the album visuals in a red bandana-printed jumper. The look is a welcomed entrèe into the new era of songstress, who is the latest of the K-pop quartet to foray into her solo avenue. According to the official BLACKPINK Instagram account, the purchase of the CD will be accompanied with an 88-page photo book, Polaroid film, postcards, double-sided posters and more trinkets.
News of Lisa’s imminent debut first came from Soompi, a Korean news outlet, earlier this summer. According to their reports, YG Entertainment (the mega girl group’s label) confirmed that Lisa had been cooped in the studio to prepare for her single and that she would also be releasing smash singles stocked in her private discography.
While the Blinks (the group’s massive standom) has longed for Lisa’s solo album, the 24-year-old has been ambling through the fashion scene for quite some time. Amping up her endorsement partnerships last year, she became Celine’s first global ambassador — largely predicated on her intimate relationship with the house’s creative director Hedi Slimane. She also signed on as a brand ambassador for the Italian gemstone giant Bulgari.
The label previously announced that forthcoming solo tracks from Rosé, Lisa, and Jisoo would follow the October 2020 release of THE ALBUM, the group’s first full-length studio album. Jennie, the first member to release an individual project, conspicuously entered her own musical venture with “SOLO” in 2018. Rosé’s would later premiere her acclaimed venture with album R. From the looks of things, we can suspect that next up in line to introduce the Blink Army to their own sonic complexity is Jisoo.
