For her solo album debut, LISA is introducing us to her Alter Ego(s). After months of buildup, the BLACKPINK star has finally dropped her debut solo album, complete with 15 new tracks and its name suggests, “populated” by five LISA variants, each one embodying the album’s varied moods and styles.

After first teasing the album in November 2024, unveiling the project’s cover art, dropping a three-minute album trailer, and first explaining the star emblem used throughout the album’s campaign “emulates five characters each representing a unique personality,” Alter Ego has finally arrived, and on it we meet Vixi, Kiki, Roxi, Sunni, and Speedi.
“It represents five characters of me as well, like I feel related with them,” LISA told Sean Evans on the latest episode of Hot Ones that arrived one day ahead of the LP’s release. “It feels like I can express myself in a different version of me, and it’s fun,” she continued “I can’t wait for my fans to listen to this album, to really enjoy this album and see a different side of LISA.”
Featuring previously released singles “Rockstar,” “New Woman” featuring Rosalía, “Moonlit Floor (Kiss Me)” and “Born Again” with Doja Cat and RAYE, LISA’s 15-track album also includes collaborations with Tyla on "When I'm With You," Megan Thee Stallion on "Rapunzel," and Future on "FXCK UP THE WORLD." The latter two of which also have Alter Ego solo versions from Kiki and Vixi.
LISA is just the latest BLACKPINK member to set forth solo contributions. ROSÉ also dropped her first-ever solo album, rosie, in December, two months after which Jisoo unveiled an EP titled AMORTAGE, with Jennie set to follow suit on March 7, with her debut LP Ruby. That being said, the fierce foursome is set to reunite as BLACKPINK this summer for their 2025 World Tour.
