In a dazzling fusion of K-pop, American rap, and British pop, BLACKPINK’s LISA, Doja Cat, and RAYE have joined forces to deliver one of the most anticipated collaborations of 2025. Their single “Born Again,” released on February 7, is already making waves across the music industry, blending vintage glamour with modern pop sensibilities.
The track, which originated as a demo by RAYE, has been transformed into an empowering anthem that speaks to anyone who’s ever faced heartbreak. With its infectious disco-tinged beat and powerful vocals, “Born Again” tells the story of a woman rising from the ashes of a failed relationship, stronger and more resilient than ever.
The music video, directed by Bardia Zeinali, is a visual feast that perfectly complements the song’s message. Viewers are treated to stunning scenes of the three artists, each bringing their unique style and energy to the production. From LISA’s mesmerizing dance moves to Doja Cat’s fierce rap verses and RAYE’s soulful vocals, the video is a testament to the artists’ individual talents and their seamless collaboration.
Fans have been eagerly anticipating this collaboration since LISA expressed her desire to work with Doja Cat in an interview earlier this year. The addition of RAYE to the mix has only heightened the excitement, with many hailing it as the “collab of the year”.
“Born Again” is not just a catchy pop song; it’s a statement of empowerment and rebirth. The lyrics encourage listeners to embrace their worth and recognize their power to overcome adversity. As RAYE sings in the chorus, “I would’ve made you a believer,” the message is clear: sometimes, it’s the one who walks away who misses out on something extraordinary.
This collaboration marks a significant milestone for LISA, potentially paving the way for her first UK solo hit. With the track already gaining traction worldwide, it seems that LISA, Doja Cat, and RAYE have indeed created something truly special – a pop anthem that resonates with listeners on both emotional and musical levels.
