It comes after music fans voted in a poll published Friday (Oct. 11) on Billboard, choosing the BLACKPINK singer’s new solo single as their favorite new music release for that week. Despite going up against several hot new releases, JENNIE’s song won the vote by a landslide, coming in at over 81% by the time the poll closed on Sunday.
Voters chose “Mantra” over new music releases from Charli XCX, Halsey, Tyla, Jelly Roll, Becky G, GloRilla and Rod Wave.
JENNIE has had a groundbreaking few years. In addition to releasing long-awaited solo music, she also made her acting debut in 2023 in the HBO drama series The Idol and was named an honorary Member of the Order of the British Empire.
In March 2024, she teamed up with Brockhampton’s Matt Champion to release a brand new collaboration, titled “Slow Motion.”
She announced in December that she is launching a new label and company called OA. “Hi, this is Jennie. This year was filled with many accomplishments, and I’m so thankful for all the love I’ve received,” the K-pop singer wrote on her Instagram Story. “I’m also about what’s to come, as I start my solo journey in 2024 with a company that I have established called OA. Please show lots of love for my new start with OA and of course BLACKPINK. Thank you.”
