BLACKPINK’s Jennie is gracing the cover of Billboard, offering an intimate look at her journey toward her highly anticipated solo album.
On January 9th, Billboard unveiled their latest cover story titled “It’s a Fight Between Me, Myself and I: Jennie Goes Deep on Crafting Her Solo Album” on their official website, featuring a candid interview and striking photoshoot with the K-pop superstar.
The publication introduces the artist with a powerful tagline: “The world knows Jennie from Blackpink — but with the upcoming debut album she has long hoped for, she’s finally really getting to know, and show, her true self.”
In the revealing interview, Jennie discusses her path to creative independence, including the establishment of her label ODD ATELIER and her partnership with Columbia Records. “I listed out the things that I want in my life and started pinpointing, or prioritizing, what’s my very next step. And instantly, I was like, ‘I still haven’t accomplished the dream of releasing a solo album.’ I wanted to satisfy myself by achieving that goal,” she shares.
Speaking about her artistic identity, Jennie reveals, “I intend to complete myself as Jennie Ruby-Jane, for that to be a whole person, in a way.” She also teases the versatility of her upcoming release: “You’ll definitely know what I mean once the album drops, but because I’m playing with a lot of different genres and elements — I’m rapping here, I’m singing here, I’m harmonizing here, I’m talking here … The overall sound was me making sure I like every single [song].”
