Blackpink’s Jennie has just signed a solo deal with Columbia Records! We've got all the details! Read on for more!
Blackpink's Jennie has signed a contract with Columbia Records, in partnership with her record label and company Oddatelier with her new single which is set to be released in October.
Jennie was actually signed by the record label this morning (September 9, 2024) and it was updated on Columbia Records own Instagram page, with the caption "We are family" which I thought was endearing to hear.
Let's take a look at this historic post!
Jennie is my favorite member of Blackpink due to her impressive vocals and image. I think that she is always on point, and excels at everything she puts her mind to. Jennie is also the highest achieving female Korean act on the Billboard charts, and she is the only Korean artist to headline Coachella. She also released her debut solo album "SOLO" in 2018 before the band went their separate ways, and later in 2023, she released a special solo "You & Me".
Jennie was born in Korea, but moved to and studied in Auckland, New Zealand when she was 10 for five years before returning to Korea and joining the entertainment powerhouse YG’s talent academy. Blackpink formed in 2016 and has gone on to become the first music group and Korean female act to have five music videos accumulate one billion views each on YouTube and are the most-followed girl group on Spotify and rightly so. Their music and dance routines are highly addictive and easy to listen to.
Will this new partnership mean a new album from Jennie? And a tour potentially? I really hope so, as I would love her to have the chance to tour as a solo artist as many of her fans would.
