In 2024, Lisa established her own management company named Lloud and signed with RCA Records. She reached number one on the Billboard Global Excl. US with "Rockstar", the lead single from her debut studio album Alter Ego (2025).

Outside of music, Lisa made her acting debut in 2025 in the third season of the HBO television series The White Lotus.

Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
