The wait is finally over for BLINKs and Lilies all around the world!
BLACKPINK’s Lisa is gearing up to release her first-ever debut studio album “ALTER EGO” next week. The album was first announced in November 2024, and since then, fans have been treated to a series of promotional content.
Since BLACKPINK members’ solo releases are generating a buzz, fans are eager to know more about them. Rosé and Jisoo have already dropped a new album, while Lisa and Jennie will release new music soon.
Once done with the solo venture, they will reunite for a comeback and a world tour, which has already been announced.
Coming back to the subject, here is everything you need to know about Lisa’s debut full-length album
Lisa’s “ALTER EGO” Concept
Lisa’s new album ‘ALTER EGO’ reveals the many sides of her personality through five distinct characters: Roxi, Kiki, Vixi, Sunni, and Speedi. Each alter ego represents a different aspect of Lisa and is featured on its own track and special album cover.
- Roxi – Roxi is all about confidence and stage presence, inspired by Lisa’s song ‘Rockstar’. She is described as a confident performer who lives to entertain and command the stage.
- Kiki – Kiki is inspired by her pre-release single ‘New Woman’ with Rosalía, she is a bold and stylish persona that captures the playful vibe of the Y2K era.
- Vixi – Vixi is the darkest and most mysterious of them all. She represents the edgy, bold side of Lisa’s personality. With a Scorpio vibe and a bold black and red aesthetic, Vixi is the ultimate femme fatale.
- Sunni – Sunni is a carefree, sun-loving character who embodies a relaxed, beachy vibe. Inspired by her song “Moonlit Floor”, Sunni represents a laid-back side of Lisa’s personality.
- Speedi – As the name implies, Speedi is all about living life in the fast lane. With bright orange hair, she is built for the rush and always ready to win.
Pre-release Tracks
Prior to the release of “ALTER EGO”, several singles were dropped to build hype. “ROCKSTAR” kicked things off on June 27, 2024, followed by “New Woman” with Rosalía on August 15, 2024. Both singles charted on Billboard HOT 100 at No. 70 and No. 97 respectively.
The third pre-release single, “Moonlit Floor (Kiss Me)”, arrived on October 3, 2024. It features a catchy chorus inspired by Sixpence None the Richer’s classic hit “Kiss Me”. Lisa gave fans an early taste of the song with a live performance at the Global Citizen Festival 2024 and later performed it at Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2024. “Moonlit Floor” did not secure a spot on the Billboard HOT 100
