In a joint statement, RCA chairman/CEO Peter Edge and COO John Fleckenstein said, “We are incredibly proud to partner with Lisa and Lloud Co.! Lisa is a multidimensional talent and an irrefutable global force. We are thrilled to welcome her and her team to the RCA Records family.”
Lloud Co. was launched by Lisa earlier this year “in an effort to create a platform to showcase her overall vision in music and entertainment that pushes boundaries,” according to the announcement.
She has pursued a solo career parallel to her work with Blackpink for the past several years. Her 2021 single “Lalisa” saw her become the first female artist to sell nearly 750,000 copies in the first week of release in South Korea.
She also is set to star in the upcoming third season of the hit HBO series, “The White Lotus.” The role will mark her major on screen debut and is filming in her native Thailand. She has had several major endorsement deals and is currently the face of Bulgari.
