Rosie is the upcoming debut solo studio album by New Zealand and South Korean singer Rosé. It is scheduled to be released on 6 December 2024, through The Black Label and Atlantic Records. The album will mark her first solo release since departing from YG Entertainment and Interscope Records in 2023. "Apt.", a collaboration between Rosé and Bruno Mars, was released as the album's lead single on 18 October 2024.

Background

[edit]

In December 2023, YG Entertainment revealed that although Rosé, alongside the other members of Blackpink, renewed their contracts for group activities, they did not sign with the agency for their individual activities.[1][2] On 17 June 2024, Blackpink's main producer Teddy disclosed that The Black Label, an associate company of YG Entertainment, was in discussions with Rosé for an exclusive contract; the following day, it was confirmed that she had signed a management contract with the label.[3][4] On 26 September, Rosé revealed that she had also signed a solo deal with Atlantic Records.[5]

Shortly thereafter, on 1 October 2024, Rosé announced that her first studio album Rosie would be released on 6 December.[6] The announcement was accompanied by a post of the album cover, which depicts a close up of the singer lying down with blonde curls.[6] Comprising 12 tracks, Rosie has been described to represent "a burst of honesty" from the singer, showcasing Rosé as a co-writer of the entire record.[7]

Conception and title

[edit]

Explaining the album title, Rosé revealed that she had chosen Rosie, the name she allowed "friends and family to call [her]", to express her desire for listeners to feel closer to her.[8] She further shared that Rosie was conceived as a personal "little journal" after she found herself in a recording session in Los Angeles following the conclusion of Blackpink's Born Pink World Tour, leading to a year of writing songs and meeting new producers while still feeling "confused and lost".[9]

Promotion and release

[edit]

On 11 February 2024, in celebration of her 27th birthday, Rosé teased the release of her new solo music, previewing a snippet of her upcoming song "Vampirehollie" on her then newly opened Instagram broadcast channel.[10] On 27 September, after announcing her signed deal with Atlantic Records, she introduced a new Instagram account (@vampirehollie), naming it after the unreleased track.[11]

On 16 October, Rosé posted a picture of Bruno Mars and herself playing a South Korean drinking game.[12] Mars also shared a post, captioning it with a story of Rosé trying to kiss him, teasing a possible collaboration.[13] On 17 October, Rosé revealed her single "Apt." with Mars on her social media a day before its official release.[14] The single was released on 18 October to great commercial success, debuting atop both the Billboard Global 200 and the Global Excl. US. This marked Rosé's and Mars' second number-one single on either chart after "On the Ground" and "Die with a Smile", respectively.[15] In the United States, the song debuted at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100, making Rosé the first K-pop female act in history to have a top-ten entry on the chart.[16]
