LISA of BLACKPINK Shares Snippet of New Music: Here’s Why Fans Think It’s a Collab With Rosalía

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”

The teasers come a little over a month after the K-pop icon stepped into a new phase of her solo career with “Rockstar,” a flashy ode to self-confidence that she paired with a cyberpunk music video. The song debuted at No. 70 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 4 on the Billboard Global 200, as well as became LISA’s first-ever No. 1 hit on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S.

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.”
