So, I’m not only a music lover but I truly believe in the power of music. It’s a universal language. It can communicate emotions without you having to find the exact words yourself. It’s healing. So, when a song like ExtraL comes along—bold, confident, and dripping in self-assurance—it’s more than just music. It’s a reminder of who we are, what we deserve, and the power we hold. Jennie and Doechii didn’t just make a hit; they made a statement. And in a world that often tries to dim our light, this track is a much-needed spark. Let’s get into it.
Jennie from BLACKPINK and rapper Doechii just dropped ExtraL, and it’s the bold, confident anthem we didn’t know we needed. The track blends Jennie’s smooth, effortless delivery with Doechii’s razor-sharp flow, creating a perfect mix of pop and hip-hop energy. The beat is slick and infectious, setting the tone for lyrics that celebrate independence, success, and knowing your worth. From the first verse to the last, both artists bring undeniable presence, making it clear they’re here to own the moment. The video was directed by Cole Bennett and showcased the ladies bold energy, beautiful style and gorgeous hues, in a visually striking setting enhancing the song’s bold and energetic vibe.
ExtraL” isn’t just a bop—it’s a statement. Seeing two powerhouse BIPOC women like Jennie and Doechii come together is exactly the energy we need, especially in a world that constantly underestimates us. With Doechii fresh off her historic Grammy win for Rap Album of the Year—only the third woman ever to claim that title—this collab is the perfect reminder that our beauty, confidence, creativity, and power are undeniable. This duo is here to shake things up. It also a reminder to have fun, to show off a bit and to remind everyone of who we are… and we’re so here for it.
