“I intend to complete myself as Jennie Ruby-Jane, for that to be a whole person, in a way,” Jennie dished about her album. “I’m playing with a lot of different genres and elements — I’m rapping here, I’m singing here, I’m harmonizing here, I’m talking here … The overall sound was me making sure I like every single [song]. I didn’t want to be forced into putting a song onto my album — that’s what I really fought for.”

On her growth throughout this project, the singer shared, “I needed this. I wanted this. The more I get to know myself, the more I try to love myself. I’ve had a time in my life where I didn’t… The time where I was feeling clueless. The fact that I’ve moved on from that phase and being so committed to myself, I’m very proud.”

We can’t wait to hear what else Jennie is working on!

Also coming up this year, all four BLACKPINK members will be reuniting, and Jennie also dished on what that’s going to be like.

“I’ve missed the girls. I’ve missed doing tours with them. I miss our silly moments…Everyone took their own journey [during] this time, and I’m excited to share that with the girls. I want to say it’s going to be the most powerful [versions] of ourselves that anyone has seen,” she teased.
