\n\tJENNIE<\/a> and Kevin Parker<\/a> have some famous collaborators in common \u2014 Dua Lipa<\/a> included.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe BLACKPINK star and Tame Impala artist reunited for Rolling Stone<\/a>\u2018s Musicians on Musicians issue in a conversation published Tuesday (Oct. 13), during which they bonded over their professional and personal relationships with Lipa. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWorking with Dua didn\u2019t feel like work,\u201d JENNIE recalled of creating 2025 single \u201cHandlebars\u201d with the British pop star. \u201cIt truly just felt like a day out with her in New York for a shoot. We were texting as if we were trying to find a date to hang out.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tParker agreed that making music with Lipa is \u201creally special,\u201d having previously worked on much of her Billboard 200<\/a> No. 2 album Radical Optimism. \u201cDua Lipa is the other person who I know who cannot sit still, who\u2019s just always doing stuff,\u201d he told JENNIE.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cAs I said, she\u2019s a lot like you,\u201d he continued. \u201cShe\u2019s always doing stuff. She\u2019s got a book podcast, she\u2019s got a music career. And like you, she does it quite effortlessly. If I did half of the things that she does in one day, I would need to sleep for four days.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI do one thing a day, I\u2019m like, \u2018Well, that\u2019s me,’\u201d he continued. \u201cShe\u2019ll duck out from a recording session to interview Monica Lewinsky for a podcast or something, and then she\u2019ll come back and finish the session.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cShe has energy, and she does it with love and passion,\u201d JENNIE added. \u201cIt\u2019s very inspiring.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe K-pop idol and Parker came together in February for a remix of the latter\u2019s \u201cDracula,\u201d with their revamped version (pun intended) sending the track to No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100<\/a>. It\u2019s by and large JENNIE\u2019s biggest hit as a soloist and a highlight of her work independent from BLACKPINK.<\/p>\n

\n\tAlso while speaking to Parker, she compared and contrasted her experiences touring with bandmates ROS\u00c9, LISA and JISOO to hitting the road on her own. \u201cThe main difference that I\u2019ve noticed is actually the pre-production part of it,\u201d JENNIE explained. \u201cObviously, being in a band, there needs to be a lot of communication between each other, and to combine everything and to turn it into one is a completely different thing from me being able to just take care of everything on my side.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe chat comes as JENNIE is embarking on her next solo era, which she kickstarted in August with the release of her FALLEN ANGEL EP.<\/p>\n
