What Tracks Have Fans Already Heard?

Jennie has been building anticipation the old-fashioned way — through live performances. She’s previously debuted snippets of tracks including “Less than a Lover,” “FALLEN ANGEL,” and “lockitdown” during recent festival sets, giving fans a taste of what’s likely coming on the new project.

Jennie’s Solo Momentum Keeps Building

Jennie Kim, born in 1996, rose to prominence as a member of Blackpink, one of the best-selling girl groups of all time, before launching her solo career in November 2018 with the single “Solo,” which became the first music video by a Korean female soloist to surpass one billion views on YouTube. Since then, she’s continued to break records — her 2025 album “Ruby” sold over a million copies worldwide and produced hit tracks including “like JENNIE,” further cementing her as one of K-pop’s most influential solo acts.

This new EP arrives at a high point in her solo career, following major milestones like her Coachella performance and a 2025 Billboard Women in Music honor.

Why This Comeback Matters

With BLACKPINK’s massive global fanbase and Jennie’s own rapidly growing solo catalog, any new release from her carries serious chart potential right out of the gate. An EP built around already-teased tracks like “FALLEN ANGEL” and “lockitdown” suggests a cohesive, festival-tested sound fans have been anticipating for months.
