LISA wasn’t finished when she released “Rockstar” in June. On Friday (Aug. 2), the BLACKPINK star proved that she has a lot more in store for her new solo era, teasing an unreleased song by sharing a snippet on social media.
In a video posted to TikTok, a pink-haired LISA — whose face isn’t visible — shows off a star-shaped pendant around her neck. “Bangin’ it, bangin’ it, wanna crack these walls/ Bangin’ it, bangin’ it, wanna echo through the halls,” she sings over a mid-tempo, Y2K-inspired beat. “Pullin’ up, fresh face, brand new día.”
Then on Monday (Aug. 5), her own LLOUD company posted a new teaser on X with the same snippet of music. But this time, the visual — which features an angled silver star against the backdrop of a pink and purple cloudy sky — had the words “coming soon” scrolling across it, a silvery rose rotating, before ending with “LALISA ______.” That blank space had fans speculating that not only would the new track be a collab, but that her potential partner in music may be Rosalía thanks to the image of the rose.
“LISA AND ROSALIA!!!!” one excited fan tweeted , while another added , “JUST ANNOUNCE IT BABE WE KNOW IT’S ROSALÍA 👀👀👀 AND WE READY”
LISA first released music independently from BLACKPINK in 2021 with two singles: “Lalisa” and “Money.” She began teasing her new solo chapter in June, when she launched her TikTok account and started posting seconds-long clips of what would later turn out to be “Rockstar”; according to a release from her team, she set a Guinness World Record by gaining a million followers in just two hours and 18 minutes after her first post.
“Rockstar” also marked LISA’s first release since signing with RCA Records to support her solo endeavors, inking a deal in partnership with her own LLOUD company that will allow her to retain ownership of her master recordings. “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 in a statement in April. “Looking forward to showing the world everything we have been preparing.”
