Rosalía: Grammy-winning singer collaborates with Lisa, imitated by "BTS sister"

Rosalía is a Spanish singer, songwriter, and blogger. In 2018, she was one of the most successful singers in Spain. Rosalía's talent is highly appreciated by music experts and fans.

After her comeback with Rockstar, Lisa - a member of the group BLACKPINK - once again stirred up the music market with a new song called New Woman. This is the first collaboration between the Kpop star and the Grammy-winning Spanish singer - Rosalía, so it has received a lot of anticipation and attention from fans.

Born in the suburbs of Barcelona in 1992, Rosalía has conquered the world with her contemporary flamenco music. She studied Spanish folk music from a young age, although her parents had nothing to do with the arts.

At the age of 15, she participated in the Spanish music show Tú Sí Que Vales but did not qualify. She then began studying music at the age of 16 at the Taller de Músics Academy in Barcelona, a 6-year course.

Despite her young age, Rosalía has shown her artistic talent early on and has won many prestigious music awards, including 2 Grammy Awards, 12 Latin Grammy Awards, 4 MTV Video Music Awards and 1 MTV Europe Music Award. Rosalía's music impresses experts with its originality and unique messages that express the young artist's sharp perspective.

In 2022, the online community was surprised when Rosalía collaborated with Soytiet - the Vietnamese "counting phenomenon" that once took social networks by storm domestically and internationally.

Soytiet is a guy who once "caused a fever" on social networks with his English counting songs. His clips were shared widely by many international stars such as Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown, Justin Bieber, Cardi B, Rihanna... He owns a TikTok channel with more than 1.3 million followers and won the Inspirational Character award at the WeChoice Awards 2020.

Accordingly, in the album MOTOMAMI released by Rosalía, she used the audio from Soytiet's counting clip for the track CUUUUuuuuuute. In particular, Rosalía also showed respect for Soytiet by writing his full name in the song's credits.

In 2023, Korean social media was stirred up by a series of evidences accusing HYBE's girl group LE SSERAFIM of plagiarizing Rosalía. A series of songs, MVs and performance ideas of LE SSERAFIM were "dug up" by a netizen, pointing out the group's similarities with Rosalía's previous products. This scandal had a significant impact on the group's image.

First, Korean netizens dissected the way LE SSERAFIM sang and pronounced words in many songs, which seemed to be inspired by Rosalía. The most typical example is the group's recent teaser Unforgiven, the beat and singing style are similar to Linda, which Rosalía released in 2021. Or the way the song develops and the narration of the hit Antifragile, especially the emotional change at 0:27 in Antifragile and 0:54 in Rosalía's DEBUT, are the same.

In addition, some MV scenes and performance ideas of LE SSERAFIM were pointed out to have many similarities that Rosalía had previously applied. The obvious similarities include: the scene of wearing a cat-ear helmet and driving a motorbike in Rosalía's MV SAOKO released on February 4, 2022 was repeated in the debut MV LE SSERAFIM - FEARLESS in May 2022; the image in the MV Antifragile in October 2022 was referenced from Chicken Teriyaki in February 2022.

Not stopping there, the viral scene when member Chaewon (LE SSERAFIM) cut her hair on stage at SBS Gayodaejun 2022 was also pointed out to have referenced Rosalía's Motomami Tour quite a bit. Fans of the Spanish singer expressed their objections, saying that Rosalía had to spend a lot of time forming her own style, and that LE SSERAFIM had too many similarities even in the third product of their career, which was like copying the entire identity of another artist.

Speaking of the "collaboration" between Lisa and Rosalía, Lisa had previously directly expressed her desire to collaborate with the Spanish artist. In a 2022 interview, Rosalía admitted that she was a big fan of the Korean singer and rapper: "I love Lisa. I'm a fan of hers. She's a great dancer and very talented."

Likewise, Lisa praised Rosalía in an interview with Rolling Stone that same year. “Rosalía is amazing. She has her own Spanish culture, which is in her, and it influences her music,” she said. “I’m curious to see how far I can push myself. Musically or dance-wise, I feel like I still have a lot to learn.”

Last April, Lisa had a private outing with Rosalía in the US, when Blackpink and Rosalía were both performing artists at the Coachella music festival. The female idol shared many intimate and happy photos with Rosalía on her personal Instagram. Afterwards, Lisa and Rosé went to see Rosalía perform at Coachella. They even brought a banner to cheer her on.

Lisa and Rosalía's song New Woman is still making waves and is a hot topic of discussion among music lovers. The new song has entered the iTunes charts in many different countries around the world.
