After a lot of speculation from fans online, YG announced Wednesday that singer-songwriter and member of K-pop group 2NE1 Lee Chae-rin -- who goes by the stage name CL -- will be releasing her first US single “Lifted” on Aug. 19.
Since her broadcast debut on SBS’ year-end music program “Gayo Daejeon” in 2007, she has garnered a global following, gaining the attention of American talent manager Scooter Braun who represents global pop idols such as Justin Bieber. Additionally, the 25-year-old received international recognition after her performance at last year’s Mad Decent Block Party, a North American music festival presented by American DJ Diplo’s record label Mad Decent.
In March, CL-- along with iconic K-pop boy band Big Bang -- was named by TIME magazine readers as a potential figure for the world’s most influential 100 people.
