This marks her first full-length project after parting ways with YG Entertainment and Interscope Records in 2023.
Exploring the Concept of ‘Alter Ego’
The album’s concept revolves around five inner personas — Roxi, Kiki, Sunni, Speedi, and Vixi — each representing different aspects of Lisa’s personality. These alter egos bring out diverse musical styles, from hard-hitting rap to sensual R&B and pop.
With this multi-dimensional approach, Lisa delivers an innovative sound that blends hip-hop, electronic beats, and global pop influences. The result is a unique sonic experience that pushes the boundaries of her artistry.
