Jennie Premieres Solo Album with Historic Performance on Billboard’s ICONIC STAGE

BLACKPINK’s Jennie is the first artist to appear on Billboard’s ICONIC STAGE.

Billboard and Billboard Korea dropped a groundbreaking video featuring Jennie on their official YouTube channel this Wednesday.

Titled “JENNIE’S ICONIC STAGE: Ruby,” the video offers an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the making of Jennie’s debut solo album, Ruby. It includes high-energy performances of her title track “Like JENNIE” and follow-up hit “Handlebars.”

Jennie discusses her creative process in the video: “Creating this album felt like learning to walk all over again. I had to connect with my inner self. Every detail—from the music and visuals to the styling, message, and lyrics—got my full attention.”

She also explains why she chose “Like JENNIE” as the lead single, adding, “‘Like JENNIE’ is one of the most fun songs on the album. It puts you in a great mood and makes you want to dance whenever you hear it. I thought it was the perfect way to introduce my album to the world.”

Fans can look forward to The Ruby Experience, a special event celebrating the release of Ruby, happening this Saturday at Inspire Arena.
