On March 10, Jennie’s agency announced that her first full-length solo album “Ruby,” released at midnight on the 7th through various streaming platforms, had topped the iTunes Top Albums chart in 21 countries and regions, including the Philippines, Thailand, and Singapore.
Beyond iTunes, the album also found major success in China, securing the No.1 position on the daily digital best-seller charts of QQ Music and Kugou Music. Additionally, the title track, “like JENNIE,” along with all other tracks from “Ruby,” ranked high on global music charts, reflecting widespread popularity.
Jennie’s agency further reported that the “like JENNIE” music video quickly climbed to No.1 on YouTube’s trending videos within just five hours of release. It also took the top spot on YouTube Trending Worldwide and YouTube Music Video Trending Worldwide, reinforcing Jennie’s strong international presence.
The album “Ruby” consists of 15 tracks spanning various genres, with “like JENNIE” standing out as a personal statement of confidence and individuality. Jennie was actively involved in writing and composing the song, which delivers a message of embracing one’s true self and recognizing that no one else can take one’s place.
However, amid the album’s success, Jennie has faced controversy over her bold fashion choices. During “The Ruby Experience,” a fan event held in Los Angeles on March 8, she performed in revealing outfits, including a white jumpsuit that exposed her chest and another ensemble that visibly revealed her underwear. These outfits have sparked debate online, with mixed reactions ranging from admiration for her confidence to criticism over the provocative styling.
Despite the controversy, Jennie’s influence remains undeniable as “Ruby” continues to dominate global charts.
