Which Lisa song won Best K-Pop at the 2024 MTV VMAs?

Lisa’s song “Rockstar” won Best K-Pop at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards.

Released in June 2024, “Rockstar” marked Lisa’s first solo single after leaving YG Entertainment for individual activities. The song blends hip-hop and pop with an energetic, performance-focused music video filmed partly in Bangkok. Its VMA victory came in the newly prominent Best K-Pop field, where it competed against artists including Jungkook, NCT Dream, NewJeans, Stray Kids and Tomorrow X Together.

A common mix-up is confusing “Rockstar” with Lisa’s earlier solo releases. “Lalisa” was her 2021 debut single, while “Money” was a major viral track from the same era. “Born Again” belongs to a later phase of her solo catalog and was not the 2024 Best K-Pop winner.

The win also strengthened Lisa’s standing as a solo performer beyond BLACKPINK. The 2024 VMAs placed her among the ceremony’s major international pop acts, while the category reflected the continuing expansion of K-pop’s presence in American award shows.
