BLACKPINK's Jennie sets cars on fire in ‘Rush Hour’-themed ‘Mantra’ video

BLACKPINK's Jennie dropped her solo single "Mantra," featuring references to the 1998 film Rush Hour

Jennie, a member of BLACKPINK, has released her new solo video for "Mantra," which draws heavy inspiration from the 1998 action-comedy film Rush Hour. The video opens with a scene that mirrors an inciting moment from the film, paying homage to the classic movie. Throughout the video, Jennie showcases her signature fashion style, appearing in couture looks while posing with various classic cars in multiple Los Angeles locations, a nod to the setting of Rush Hour.

In several scenes, Jennie is seen with color-coordinated vehicles, including lounging in a blow-up swimming pool, dancing atop a red big rig, and snacking on the trunk of a white Ferrari. A DeLorean also makes an appearance, adding a nostalgic element. The video ends with an intense scene where Jennie and her dance crew perform amidst several burning cars.

The release of "Mantra" follows closely on the heels of other BLACKPINK members' solo efforts. Rosé recently announced her upcoming album Rosie, and Lisa dropped her single "Moonlit Floor," inspired by Sixpence None The Richer.

Fans can watch Jennie's "Mantra" video on YouTube. More details on Jennie’s upcoming solo album are expected soon.
