On Friday, Lisa, a standout member of the K-pop girl group BLACKPINK, unveiled her highly anticipated first solo full-length album titled "Alter Ego," as announced by Sony Music Entertainment Korea. This groundbreaking LP boasts an impressive 15 tracks, with the lead single, "Fxck up the World," leading the charge. Among the album's B-sides, listeners will find a diverse array of tunes such as "Elastigirl," "Thunder," "Badgrrr," "Lifestyle," "Chill," and "Dream."
In "Alter Ego," the Thai singer-rapper embarks on an intriguing journey, exploring various personas embodied by her five distinct characters: Roxi, Sunni, Kiki, Vixi, and Speedi. According to the album's local distributor, each character represents a unique aspect of Lisa, symbolized by the five points of a star and intricately linked to specific tracks on the album.
Adding to the album's allure is "Born Again," a prerelease track featuring American rapper Doja Cat and British singer-songwriter Raye. This collaborative effort debuted at an impressive No. 69 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart last week.
Lisa's talent knows no bounds, as she has collaborated with a myriad of other global pop stars, including Megan Thee Stallion, Future, and Tyla, on this album. The K-pop sensation is set to grace the stage at this year's Academy Awards ceremony on Sunday (U.S. time), alongside Doja Cat and Raye, making waves in the Hollywood limelight.
Furthermore, Lisa will take center stage at the prestigious Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in April, a major U.S. music festival, showcasing her remarkable talents as a solo artist.
