LISA of BLACKPINK Introduces Fans to Her ‘Alter Ego’ on Debut Solo Album: Stream It Now

Say hello to LISA‘s Alter Ego. After months of buildup, the BLACKPINK star has at last unveiled her debut solo album, complete with 15 new tracks and collaborations from Megan Thee Stallion, Future, Tyla and more.

Featuring the previously released singles “Rockstar,” “New Woman” featuring Rosalía, “Moonlit Floor (Kiss Me)” and “Born Again” with Doja Cat and RAYE, Alter Ego finds LISA channeling a quintet of different personas: Roxi, Kiki, Vixi, Sunni and Speedi. “It represents five characters of me as well, like I feel related with them,” she told Sean Evans on Hot Onesone day prior to the LP’s release.

“It feels like I can express myself in a different version of me, and it’s fun,” she continued “I can’t wait for my fans to listen to this album, to really enjoy this album and see a different side of LISA.”

Leading up to Alter Ego, the Thai rapper had only released two proper solo singles: 2021’s “LALISA” and “MONEY,” both of which charted on the Billboard Hot 100. That same year, she also appeared sans her bandmates on DJ Snake’s “SG” with Ozuna and the “HISS” rapper, who features on an Alter Ego track titled “Rapunzel.”

LISA is just the latest BLACKPINK member to release a set of solo songs in recent months. ROSÉ dropped her first-ever solo album, rosie, in December, two months after which JISOO unveiled an EP titled AMORTAGE. JENNIE will follow suit March 7, with the Idol actress’ debut LP Ruby scheduled to arrive one week after Alter Ego.

The foursome will soon get back together, though, with BLACKPINK announcing a summer 2025 world tour earlier this month. It’ll mark the ladies’ first trek together since 2022-2023’s Born Pink World Tour, which supported Billboard 200-topper Born Pink.

In her November Billboard global cover story, LISA said that she “can’t wait” to reunite with her bandmates. “We know each other so well and know how much energy we have to put into every single project,” she added of their time apart spent working on solo music. “So we want to support and say, ‘You did really well!’ … They’re like family. I’m just so happy that they’re releasing something. This is what we all wanted to do, so I just wanted to say that I really do love their songs.”
