On February 21, Jennie (Blackpink) released the third song from her studio album "Ruby" called "Extral", collaborating with American rapper Doechii. The official MV for Extral was also released on YouTube.
With this song, Jennie excited fans when she returned as a female rapper with a strong, attractive voice. Extral is a hip-hop song, creating space for both Jennie and Doechii to show off their rapping ability.
In particular, Doechii's performance in the second half of the song is impressive. Many audiences commented that the chorus "Extral" with Doechii's voice is the biggest "score" segment in this song.
Previously, Doechii was the winner of the Best Album Rap category at the 67th Grammy Awards. Jennie and Doechii's harmony at the end of the song received quite positive feedback.
Extral carries a message of supporting feminism, giving women confidence to break the rules and do what they want. Like the previous 2 solo songs, Jennie participated in writing the lyrics for this music product. The song uses many bold words, labeling 18+.
Not only the listening part, the MV Extral also surprised fans. Famous director in the hip-hop world, Cole Bennett, is the director of this MV.
Jennie and Doechii appeared hot when wearing elegant white blazer jackets on the outside, but revealed bright red inside. The contrast of colors made the images of the two female artists even more daring and powerful.
There were even scenes where Jennie and Doechii took off their jacket and confidently applied for a red-leg procedure in front of the camera.
Many opinions say that, from the MV "Mantra" to the MV "Extral", Jennie's style is increasingly sexy, not inferior to European and American artists.
The female singer has a clear orientation to develop into a global star, especially in the US market and is no longer limited to the framework of Kpop.
The studio album "Ruby" with a total of 15 songs will be released by Jennie on March 7.
To date, there have been 3 songs released on digital music platforms, including "Mantra", "Love Hangover" (featuring Dominic Fike) and "Extral" (featuring Doechii). The song "Zen" was also pre-reviewed by Jennie through a video on YouTube.
In addition, 3 highly anticipated collaboration songs with international artists are "Intro: JANE" (featuring FKJ), "Handlebars" (featuring Dua Lipa) and "Damn Right" (featuring Childish Gambino, kali Uchis).
