BLACKPINK’s Jennie is once again poised to capture the music world with her upcoming solo comeback, slated for June 2024. The news, reported by News1 on March 31, has ignited a wave of excitement among her global fanbase, eager to see what the talented artist will deliver next.
Jennie first debuted as a member of BLACKPINK in 2016 and quickly rose to international stardom through the group’s phenomenal success. However, she has also made a significant impact as a solo artist. Her debut solo single “SOLO,” released in November 2018, showcased her distinct style and vocal prowess, topping charts worldwide. This was followed by the special solo single “You & Me” in October 2023, further solidifying her reputation as a top-tier solo performer.
The anticipation for Jennie’s forthcoming solo album is immense. Fans are eager to witness her artistic evolution and musical ingenuity. This project is particularly significant as it marks her first major musical endeavour since founding her company, OA (ODD ATELIER), in December 2023. Jennie’s decision to establish OA signals her dedication to personal growth and creative exploration, promising a unique and deeply personal album.
Jennie’s Solo Career and New Ventures
Following BLACKPINK’s contract renewal with YG Entertainment for group activities last year, the members expressed their desire to research individual paths. Jennie’s subsequent founding of OA was a bold move, indicating her ambition to carve out her own niche in the music industry. The upcoming album is expected to reflect her personal journey and artistic vision, making it a highly anticipated release.
In addition to her musical endeavours, Jennie has continued to endear herself to audiences through her television appearances. As a fixed cast member on the popular tvN variety show “Apartment 404,” Jennie has charmed viewers with her friendly demeanor and engaging personality. Her popularity on the show was highlighted when she topped the ranking of cast members’ popularity, as announced by the analytical firm GoodData in February 2024.
Jennie also maintains her status as a global fashion icon, modelling for various high-profile brands and showcasing her versatile style. Her influence in both the music and fashion industries underscores her multifaceted talents and widespread appeal.
