LISA of BLACKPINK Is a Cyberpunk Queen in New ‘Rockstar’ Teaser: Watch

Move over Prince, Bowie and Jagger — there’s a new rock star in town. LISA has shared her most in-depth teaser yet for her upcoming solo single “Rockstar,” featuring the BLACKPINK star looking like a cyberpunk queen as she dances, models edgy outfits and lurks fiercely in dark city streets.

Posted Tuesday night (June 25), the video shows several clips flashing in and out as a snippet of LISA’s percussive, synthy single plays. “Baby, I’m a rock star,” she asserts on the track as she performs choreography with a swarm of dancers dressed in white and flashes a star-shaped decal on her teeth.

At one point, the Thai rapper looks like edgy as she models a star crop top and leather jacket, catwalking past cars and neon signs. At the end, she mimes strumming an electric guitar in a shimmering silver top-and-pants combo.

The teaser follows weeks of LISA teasing the arrival of “Rockstar,” which will mark her first proper solo release since 2021’s dual singles “Lalisa” and “Money.” At the beginning of June, she launched her TikTok account to start posting seconds-long clips of the new single; according to a recent release from her team, she set a Guinness World Record by gaining a million followers in just two hours and 18 minutes after her first post. 

Last week, LISA finally told fans when the track will drop: Thursday (June 27). She also shared the “Rockstar” cover art, which features her with a shaggy haircut and huge hoop earrings, and modeling a pair of biker glasses.

The song will also mark the artist’s first release since signing with RCA Records in anticipation of her upcoming solo era, inking a deal in partnership with her own LLOUD company that will allow her to retain ownership of her master recordings. “I’m super excited to be joining the RCA family, and I am confident they are the best team to create a bigger movement in my solo career,” she said in a statement in April. “Looking forward to showing the world everything we have been preparing.”
