BLACKPINK's Lisa to be part of Taeyang's new solo album
BIGBANG member Taeyang, who also has a successful solo career, is releasing another album, Down To Earth, on April 25 at 6:00 pm KST. It has been confirmed that BLACKPINK's Lisa will be appearing on the album as a featured artist, and she will also star in a music video with him.
Since Taeyang and BLACKPINK's Lisa are known for being the main dancers of their group, fans of both the idols are excited to find out what the music video will look like.
Taeyang released the hit track Vibe featuring BTS' Jimin in January this year, and the idol is now making a full comeback just three months later. In fact, in an interview with NME, Taeyang also mentioned collaborating with other artists and releasing an album sometime later. Hence, fans can expect other artists to feature on the album too.
Vibe, which was released in January and featured BTS' Jimin, will also be included in the tracklist of the upcoming album.
A spoiler clip for Seed, a track from the album, alongside multiple teaser pictures, has already surfaced online. Needless to say, eager fans are now waiting to see how BLACKPINK's Lisa will add her charm to the song as a rapper.
Fans are also excited about the collaboration since it will be Lisa's first time working with a domestic artist. She has previously appeared on DJ Snake's SG alongside Ozuna and Megan Thee Stallion.
Taeyang, as a soloist, has produced several chart-topping hits including Ringa Linga, Only Look At Me, Eyes, Nose, Lips, Wedding Dress, and Good Boy, among others.
The 34-year-old idol has three studio albums, nine singles, two live albums, and an EP under his credit list as a soloist. His first EP, Hot, was released in 2008. Fifteen years later, Taeyang will release his second EP, Down To Earth, and it already looks quite promising.
