With Korean entertainment taking over the world, crossovers between K-pop idols and international stars are becoming increasingly common. The world, however, is still shaken up by the collaboration between DJ Snake, Megan Thee Stallion, Ozuna, and BLACKPINK’s Lisa. Joining forces for a legendary team-up, the artists presented “SG” (Sexy Girl) on October 22.
Sexy Girl
Veering into reggaeton territories, “SG” is a Latin track produced by French-Algerian hitmaker, DJ Snake. The project —dubbed by fans like SOLM— also includes Puerto Rican singer Ozuna, American rapper Megan Thee Stallion, and Thai trailblazer Lisa Manoban. Transcending language barriers, the song seamlessly mixes English and Spanish, with lyrics that invite to dance.
Filmed in Miami, the music video was directed by Colin Tilley who is a close collaborator of Megan Thee Stallion. Tilley has previously worked with Nicki Minaj, Justin Bieber, and Post Malone, among others. For this Latin trap crossbred, the director chose to show SOLM singing and dancing to “SG” against multicolored neon backgrounds and pools of water.
The Fashion Show
Deemed as some of the most fashionable celebrities in the world, Megan Thee Stallion and Lisa stole the fashion show on “SG.” Dressed in a metal mesh creation by Natalia Fedner, the American rapper delivered her lines while twerking in a pool of water. Meanwhile, Lisa secured her Dancing Queen status, clad in a metallic fringe crop top, by the Mexican brand No Name, and matching high knee boots.
Lisa’s Smashing Year
Lisa, who earned the label of “Triple Threat” for her singing, rapping, and dancing skills, made her long-awaited solo debut earlier this year. The artist, who broke two Guinness World Records with the single “LALISA,” saw massive success with her first album.
Now, sharing writing and composing credits on “SG,” Lisa continues to make waves in the music industry. Ahead of the release of her most recent music crossover, the idol expressed her thoughts. “It’s an honor to work with world-class artists. I was very happy throughout the recording, and I hope that BLINKs will listen to “SG” as it is a song I had fun working on,” she said. The Thai singer added, “I hope it will become a song that can bring joy to many people.”
No lie, no lie
With an impressive lineup hailing from different regions of the world, it is no surprise that “SG” has sent the internet into a frenzy. Fans have taken to social media to praise SOLM for their efforts in bridging cultures. The collaborative track has received worldwide attention and sparked a variety of positive reactions, quickly trending worldwide.
