“Wow! I’m tuned in”: Fans react as Grammys reportedly names BLACKPINK’s Jennie’s 'Ruby' as a must-hear album in March

Blackpink's Jennie is set to release her debut solo album, Ruby, on March 7, 2025. The singer and actress is the last to do so in her K-pop group, including Lisa, Rose, and Jisoo. However, she was the first in her group to release a single track, Solo, in 2018.

While Blackpink has announced its comeback with a tour in 2025, its members continue to produce compelling pieces of art at an individual level. While Jennie skipped the 2025 Grammy Awards function, her album has been named as a must-hear album among others in March per the Grammy's website.

About Music posted the announcement on its X, while fans took to the comment section to rejoice. One user (@itgirlmoments) noted,

"Wow! I’m tuned in!"

A few fans noted that the Grammys should assign her a nomination. One (@blairsblu) wrote,

"Jennie might as well be a nominee."

Another fan (@animas1love) rejoiced at the recognition and commented,

"Grammys recognize Jennie's musical masterpiece Ruby."

One user (@GoGetFit_) appreciated the Mantra singer's artistry and noted,

"It's fantastic that Ruby by Jennie has been named a must-hear album by the Grammys, showcasing her growing influence and unique artistry in the music industry."

To her fans' surprise, the Blackpink singer released an official album sampler on her channel, which gives a peek at all her tracks on the album. One fan (@kangbitnahere) wrote about the sampler,

"They are not lying all the snippets and pre releases are fire."
