BLACKPINK singer Lisa has announced her new solo single, ‘Rockstar’.
BLACKPINK’s Lisa announced the title and release date of her new single, ‘Rockstar’ yesterday (June 18) though LLOUD, the management company she founded in February. The song will be released on June 27 at 6pm ET / June 28 at 9am KST.
“Having made numerous achievements with her album to become a global pop artist, Lisa’s ‘Rockstar’ is expected to garner listeners’ attention, especially with the backing of RCA Records,” LLOUD said in a press release, per Korea JoongAng Daily.
The official announcement of ‘Rockstar’ follows a series of teasers from Lisa earlier this month. It’ll also be her first release since establishing LLOUD, which has since partnered with RCA Records.

The BLACKPINK star made her solo debut in September 2021 with her two-track single album ‘LALISA’, which included the title track of the same name and ‘Money’. Her last music release was a feature on Big Bang singer Taeyang’s ‘Shoong!’ in April 2023.
In related news, BLACKPINK’s Rosé has officially signed to The Black Label, headed by the K-pop group’s longtime producer Teddy Park. The K-pop agency confirmed the news in a statement earlier this week, saying that the deal was “based on deep trust” between Park and Rosé.
Rosé is also the only member of BLACKPINK to not establish her own label since the girl group decided not to renew their individual contracts with longtime agency YG Entertainment. However, the quartet did re-sign for an “exclusive contract for group activities” with the agency.
In February 2024, Jisoo and Lisa launched their own solo companies Blissoo and LLOUD, respectively. Meanwhile, Jennie established Odd Atelier (OA) in December 2023, and has since released the single ‘Slow Motion’ with Brockhampton’s Matt Champion.
