The list includes icons like Bad Bunny and Lady Gaga, but also plenty of new names trying to shake things up. And the cherry on top? Jennie is the only K-pop artist in the list.<\/p>\n<p>Released as part of the solo drops from the BLACKPINK quartet, \u201cRuby\u201d is fast-paced, smooth, and sweet with early 2000s and 2010s R&amp;B nostalgia, but with a modern twist. Rolling Stone also said that Jennie channels major <strong>Rihanna<\/strong> vibes throughout the record, showing off that same quiet control and magnetic energy that made \u201cAnti\u201d such a cultural reset. It\u2019s not just imitation, though. \u201cRuby\u201d plays with that inspiration and brings in a fresh and unique perspective to the table.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\">\n        <blockquote hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JennieDCGallery\/status\/1930709717116203393\" class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">250606 Rolling Stone released the best albums of 2025 and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/JENNIE?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#JENNIE<\/a>\u2019s debut album \u201cRuby\u201d was selected as one of them, and she is the only K-pop act on the list. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/h0xIyWvxwF\">pic.twitter.com\/h0xIyWvxwF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; DC \uc81c\ub2c8 \uac24\ub7ec\ub9ac (@JennieDCGallery) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JennieDCGallery\/status\/1930709717116203393?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">June 5, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n        <\/figure>\n        \n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Critics are loving how Ruby manages to feel both familiar and fresh. The magazine noted that some tracks give \u201csecond-generation descendant\u201d of Rihanna, but Jennie isn\u2019t just chasing someone else\u2019s legacy. She\u2019s clearly building her own lane: smooth, polished, and stylish.\u00a0 With Ruby, Jennie proves she\u2019s not just a K-pop star branching out, she\u2019s a pop star, period!
