BLACKPINK member Lisa set yet another grand record with her solo debut.
Lisa released her first single LaLisa, from her album of the same name, and it became the most viewed YouTube music video by a solo artist in 24 hours. The video garnered 73.6 million views within a single day. Right now, it stands at 225 million and rising steadily.
The song was able to top Taylor Swift’s single Me!, which came out in April 2019 and gained 65.2 million views in 24 hours.
BLACKPINK’s solo ventures and records
Lisa becomes the third member of the K-pop band to make her solo debut. Earlier this year, her bandmate Rose became the first artist to reach number one on a Billboard Global chart as a soloist. She held the previous record for most viewed YouTube music video in 24 hours by a solo K-pop artist. Now Lisa stands at the lead.
With this achievement, BLACKPINK is now featured in the Guinness World Records 2022 book in the social media section.
