Blackpink's Jennie has released her debut solo album, "Ruby," following a period of anticipation. The album's release coincided with the launch of a music video for the single "Like Jennie."
The single "Like Jennie" was co-produced by Diplo and co-written by Jennie and Zico, who previously collaborated on "Spot!" in 2024. The music video showcases Jennie as an astronaut in ruby red attire.
"Ruby" features a range of collaborations, including Dominic Fike on "Love Hangover", Doechii on "ExtraL", Dua Lipa on "Handlebars", FKJ on "Intro: Jane", and Childish Gambino and Kali Uchis on "Damn Right".
This album is Jennie's first under her label, Odd Atelier, in partnership with Columbia Records. Odd Atelier was established in late 2023, after YG Entertainment announced that Blackpink members would not renew their solo contracts. Jennie is the third Blackpink member to release a debut studio album, following Rosé and Lisa, while Jisoo released the mini-album "Amortage" earlier this year.
