BLACKPINK‘s Lisa has just announced her highly-anticipated new single “New Woman.”
The track is set to feature Spanish reggaeton-pop sensation Rosalía — and is scheduled to be released this August 15, 2024 on all streaming and digital platforms. This marks the K-pop hitmaker’s second single to be released under her self-established label, LLOUD, following the smashing success of “Rockstar,” and marks her fourth track as a solo artist after “MONEY” and “LALISA.”
The Thai K-pop sensation first shared a teaser of the track on her official TikTok account, clueing fans in with a twelve-second preview of her rap verse on the song. Check it out below:
Both Rosalía and Lisa have been public about their friendship since last April 2023, with the duo posting several photos hanging out with one another. Rumors of a collaboration between the two have been circulating ever since then, so fans of both artists are sure to be pleased with this news.
“Rockstar” saw massive acclaim on both the local and international charts, peaking at No. 8 on the Billboard Philippines‘ Hot 100 charts. Even more than a month after its release, the track has stayed within the Hot 100 rankings, currently standing at No. 38 on this week’s (dated August 10, 2024) chart data. Her label LLOUD was established earlier this February, and is currently partnered up with RCA Records in a groundbreaking record deal that will allow Lisa to retain full ownership over her music.
Aside from her solo career, the K-pop icon is due to return with her fellow BLACKPINK members on another world tour in 2025 as announced by YG Entertainment — with the group having just released the concert film to their ‘BORN PINK World Tour’ in cinemas worldwide. Beyond her rapidly growing discography, Rosalía has also been teasing new music on the way. She hinted at a collaboration with Charli XCX on the latter’s long-rumored remix album to her recently released album brat, as well as teased snippets of her tracks that are part of the long-awaited follow-up to 2022’s critically acclaimed Motomami.
