LISA Is an Undeniable ‘Rockstar’ in New Single & Video
LISA is back with the new single “Rockstar,” and she released a music video to match the song’s bombastic title.
The BLACKPINK rapper, singer and dancer went to her native Thailand to shoot the dance-heavy video, taking over the streets of Bangkok for the shoot. “??Gold teeth sitting on the dash, she a rockstar/ Make your favorite singer wanna rap, baby, la la/ ‘Lisa, can you teach me Japanese?’ I said, ‘Hai hai’/ That’s my life life, baby I’m a rockstar,” LISA raps on the chorus.

“Rockstar” was released under the new partnership between RCA Records and LISA’s management company, LLOUD Co., which she founded earlier this year.
The song — which LISA co-wrote with Brittany Amaradio, James Essien, Lucy Healey, Ryan Tedder and Sam Homaee and was produced by Tedder and Homaee — was first teased on TikTok earlier this month when LISA joined the social media site and set a Guinness World Record by gaining 1 million followers in just over two hours. She officially announced the “Rockstar” release details last week.
In September 2021, LISA made her solo debut with the two-track single album Lalisa, released via YG Entertainment and Interscope Records, which included the title track and “Money.” She made history when “Lalisa” won best K-pop at both the MTV Video Music Awards and the MTV Europe Music Awards in 2022, making her the first K-pop solo artist to win an award at both shows. Two years earlier, LISA’s group BLACKPINK became the first all-female K-pop group to win a VMA.
