Fans Choose LISA’s ‘Rockstar’ as This Week’s Favorite New Music in All-Genre Poll
LISA‘s “Rockstar” has topped this week’s new music poll that features artists in various genres of music.
Music fans voted in a poll published Friday (June 28) on Billboard, choosing the BLACKPINK rapper, singer and dancer’s new solo single as their favorite new music release of the past week.
“Rockstar” brought 73% of the vote on the poll, securing a notable edge ahead of new releases from Camila Cabello (C,XOXO), Megan Thee Stallion (Megan), Imagine Dragons (Loom), Kelsea Ballerini with Noah Kahan (“Cowboys Cry Too”), and others.
“Rockstar” was released under the new partnership between RCA Records and LISA’s management company, LLOUD Co., which she founded earlier this year. The song was first teased on TikTok earlier this month when LISA joined the social media site and set a Guinness World Record by gaining 1 million followers in just over two hours.
LISA co-wrote “Rockstar” with Brittany Amaradio, James Essien, Lucy Healey, Ryan Tedder and Sam Homaee and was produced by Tedder and Homaee.
“Gold teeth sitting on the dash, she a rockstar/ Make your favorite singer wanna rap, baby, la la/ ‘Lisa, can you teach me Japanese?’ I said, ‘Hai hai’/ That’s my life life, baby I’m a rockstar,” LISA raps on the chorus.
LISA went to her native Thailand to shoot the dance-heavy music video, taking over the streets of Bangkok for the shoot. The clip features Thai transgender influencers Chinnawat Promsri, Bruze Kachi-sarah and Aëffy.
Trailing behind “Rockstar” on this week’s poll is the “other” category, with 16% of the vote, followed by Camila Cabello’s fourth studio album, C,XOXO, which brought in nearly 5% of the vote.
