Lisa (rapper)

Lalisa Manobal (also spelled Manoban; born Pranpriya Manobal; March 27, 1997), known mononymously as Lisa (Korean: 리사), is a Thai rapper, singer and dancer. She is a member of the South Korean girl group Blackpink, which debuted under YG Entertainment in August 2016. She is set to make her acting debut in 2025 in the HBO television series The White Lotus. Lisa made her debut as a solo artist with the single album Lalisa in September 2021, which made her the first female artist to sell 736,000 copies of an album in its first week in South Korea. The music video for its lead single of the same name broke the record for the most-viewed music video in the first 24 hours on YouTube by a solo artist. Both "Lalisa" and the album's viral second single "Money" charted in the top ten of the Billboard Global 200, with the latter breaking the record for the longest-charting song by a female K-pop soloist on the US Billboard Hot 100 and the UK Singles Chart. Lalisa and "Money" became the first album and song by a K-pop solo artist to reach one billion streams on Spotify, respectively. In 2024, Lisa established her own management company named Lloud and signed with RCA Records. Lisa earned several accolades throughout her career, including eight Guinness World Records, a Gaon Chart Music Award, a Mnet Asian Music Award, and the first MTV Video Music Award and MTV Europe Music Award ever won by a K-pop soloist. She is the most-followed K-pop artist on Instagram, as well as the most-subscribed K-pop solo artist on YouTube. Lisa was honored as a cultural ambassador leader by the Thailand Ministry of Culture and has been acknowledged by former Prime Minister of Thailand Prayut Chan-o-cha for her contributions to spreading Thai culture globally.
