On August 15, BLACKPINK‘s Lisa graced us with the release of “New Woman,” the second single released under her newly self-founded label LLOUD and RCA Records. This mega bop comes in maximum joint slay, with both Lisa and Rosaliía serving the sassiest vibes in the song and music video.
And while this track has become a must-have in our playlists, you should know some things that went into the creation of “New Woman.” These are the top 3 fun facts you should know about Lisa’s bop:
- A featured artist and a friend:
The BLACKPINK member and Rosalía have been long-time friends, and this collaboration finally proves the potential of their creative power. Contrary to some other collabs between A-list artists, both Lisa and the Spanish singer have been seen hanging out and have also sent love to each other in interviews.
“Rosalía is so cool. She has her own Spanish culture, that’s inside her person, that influences her music,” Lisa told Rolling Stone in 2022.
- A-list producers:
“New Woman” was created by some of the most prominent names in the music industry! Produced by Ilya Salmanzadeh, known for working with Sam Smith and Charli XCX, and Max Martin, known for working with Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande, the song was bound to be a jam.
- A selective collaborator:
While Rosalía and BLACKPINK’s Lisa have been friends for years, that does not necessarily have to translate to music. The Spanish singer has not released an album since 2022 and has only featured in a couple of songs in 2023 so “New Woman” marks Rosalía’s first single in a year, making things special.
