BLACKPINK’s Jennie is set to launch her new solo EP, Fallen Angel, this week, bringing a glamorous new era to streaming after months of festival previews and carefully staged teasers. The core release is consistently reported as a three-song project led by the title track, with “Heaven” and “Less than a Lover” rounding out the initial track list.
There is one important catch for fans planning their first listen: reports conflict on the exact Jennie Fallen Angel EP release date and on how three additional songs will be issued. With the release window now days away, the official platform notice will be the key update to watch.
Jennie’s Fallen Angel EP arrives this week
Jennie’s agency said the BLACKPINK member will release Fallen Angel digitally later this week. The project’s title track is also called “Fallen Angel,” positioning the EP as a focused follow-up to the momentum Jennie has built throughout 2026.
In a release accompanying the announcement, Jennie said, “I’m so happy that these songs are finally being released as my new album, ‘Fallen Angel.’ I hope you’ll get to listen to them soon.” Her teaser-photo rollout has already established the visual mood: old Hollywood glamour, polished styling, and a cinematic solo-star presentation.
A surreal teaser for the “Fallen Angel” music video has also been reported, giving the title track a visual rollout beyond the usual track-list reveal. The music video is expected alongside the EP in the reported Friday schedule, though fans should still look to Jennie’s verified channels for the final timing.
Jennie’s Fallen Angel release date needs one final check
The biggest question is not whether Jennie is releasing new music, but exactly when it will land on streaming services. One report says the three-track digital EP will arrive on Thursday, August 27 at 1 p.m., while separate reports place the release on Friday, August 28, with one also listing 1 p.m.
That difference matters for US listeners, especially those preparing streaming parties or waiting for the music video premiere. The available reporting does not confirm a time zone for the stated 1 p.m. release time, so it would be premature to convert it into Eastern or Pacific time.
The edition details also need clarification. The safest takeaway is that Fallen Angel is due in the August 27 to August 28 window, but the definitive release date, platform timing, and complete edition format should be confirmed through Jennie’s official announcement before release day.
The confirmed Fallen Angel track list so far
Three songs appear across the reports consistently, making them the confirmed core of Jennie’s new EP. “Less than a Lover” is already familiar to listeners after its digital-single release last month, while “Heaven” and “Fallen Angel” are the new titles fans will be watching most closely.
- Fallen Angel
- Heaven
- Less than a Lover
Three additional songs have also been reported: “Sweettooth,” “Lockitdown,” and “Face.” One agency report described those tracks as a later physical-edition addition selected by Jennie for fans, while another described them as streaming-platform material in a six-track configuration.
That creates a real distinction between the three-track Fallen Angel EP and a possible expanded version. Until a final official track list specifies where “Sweettooth,” “Lockitdown,” and “Face” will be available, fans should treat their format and release plan as developing rather than settled.
Why “Less than a Lover” already gives Jennie momentum
“Less than a Lover” arrived as a digital single on July 24, and its early results give Fallen Angel more than just pre-release buzz. The song debuted at No. 34 on Spotify’s Daily Songs Global chart and topped the iTunes Top Songs chart in 27 regions.
The track also earned gold certification on China’s QQ Music and topped Mnet’s M Countdown for two consecutive weeks. It was the only single by a female solo artist released this year to receive that QQ Music gold certification, according to the available reports.
Jennie had already brought “Less than a Lover” into her live sets before its official release, while festival audiences also heard unreleased material including “Fallen Angel” and “Lockitdown.” That performance trail gives the EP a different build than a surprise streaming drop: some songs have already been tested in front of major international crowds, while their studio versions remain the main event.
From Governors Ball to Jennie’s new album era
The road to Fallen Angel has been unusually global. Jennie headlined Governors Ball Music Festival in New York in June, then performed at Roskilde Festival in Denmark, Open’er Festival in Poland, and Mad Cool Festival in Spain in July, before appearing at Summer Sonic in Japan in August.
Those appearances followed Jennie’s 2025 solo studio album, Ruby, which peaked at No. 7 on the Billboard 200 and No. 3 on the UK Official Albums Chart Top 100. Four songs from the 15-track album entered the Billboard Hot 100, establishing a major chart benchmark for whatever comes next.
Fallen Angel arrives roughly a year and a half after Ruby, but its rollout is much tighter: a short core track list, a title-track video teaser, and visuals rooted in vintage glamour. For BLACKPINK fans, it is also a fresh chance to see how Jennie narrows her solo identity after a full-length debut that reached both US and UK album charts.
What BLACKPINK fans should watch before streaming
The most useful update to monitor is Jennie’s final official release post. It should settle whether Fallen Angel appears Thursday or Friday, clarify the relevant streaming time zone, and explain whether the reported extra tracks are attached to a physical edition, digital edition, or another format.
Fans should also watch for confirmation of the “Fallen Angel” music video launch, plus any full visual preview that expands on the old Hollywood teaser photos. “Lockitdown” is especially worth tracking because Jennie has already performed it at festivals, but its placement on the final release remains unconfirmed.
With “Less than a Lover” already carrying Spotify, iTunes, QQ Music, and music-show momentum, the next question is whether Jennie will announce new live stages after the EP arrives. For now, the title track, the final track configuration, and the official streaming notice are the details that will define the opening of Jennie’s Fallen Angel era.
