Who wanna rock like JENNIE? Everyone! But have you ever met? Actually, yes. She's got 'em obsessed with her new album, 'Ruby,' and she joins Bru at our studios in Los Angeles to talk about it all.

On her way to Coachella for a solo debut, JENNIE is riding high on the success of "Like JENNIE," something she did not see coming. "I was just saying, even today, I was like, 'wow, I'm just so amazed at how the song is doing and how everyone's reacting to the song,'" she shares. "It's definitely not what I expected."

With 'Ruby' being an eclectic introduction to the solo status of the BLACKPINK star, JENNIE admits she even surprised herself along the way. "I didn't realize how many genres and different type of sounds that I wanted to tap into before I worked on this album," the "Love Hangover" singer reveals. "I'm finding myself really as I'm going and learning how to rap for the first time almost, how to sing for the first time."

"In a good way, I've never been able to really focus only on myself. I've always had the girls with me, you know? I've always had other things happening around me, but for this album, I got to really sit down and explore different voices and sounds and it was great! I'm going to look into it and find out more about who and what kind of sound that I want to like, hold on to."

JENNIE also touched on her collaborations during the making of 'Ruby,' especially with Dua Lipa. "She's a caring person in general, and we we used to like do dinners, and we would meet at parties, and every time she's always making sure if I'm good and happy and healthy," smiles JENNIE. "So she's someone that's always made sure that I feel, you know, I'm feeling good. So to have her work on a song on this album. It's like having a great friend at work with you, like what more can I ask for?"

"She's supportive and she's obviously giving, sharing her beautiful voice with me on this album, like I'm just so happy, and it was a great day when we had the shoot. It felt like we were just out in New York in the cold wearing crazy outfits just jamming to a song."

Just days away from her Coachella set, JENNIE talked about the "pure joy and excitement" for the event, gave some advice on festival attire, and also shared a motto she tries to live by. Hear it all above during JENNIE's Audacy Check In.
