BLACKPINK’s Jennie officially announced her signing as a solo artist to Columbia Records in partnership with her record label and entertainment company ODDATELIER. Under this newly minted partnership, she will unveil her new solo single in October.
In 2023, she broke records and reached rarified air when she teamed up with The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp on the smash “One of the Girls,” which has been streamed over one billion times to date on Spotify.

As part of the track’s stratospheric success, she not only staked out a spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for 20 weeks but is “the first female Korean soloist to achieve a RIAA platinum song.”
Aside from being a BLACKPINK member, Jennie is also a global superstar, entrepreneur, actress, and style icon. It’s just the beginning of what promises to be her biggest, boldest, and best era yet.
