Lead singer Hyolyn of girl group Sistar is set to release a new solo album next month, which includes collaborations with rappers Dok2 and Jay Park.

Hyolyn will be releasing two new tracks in the coming weeks, one featuring rapper Dok2 on Oct. 26 and another featuring rapper-producer Jay Park -- whose new album is out Thursday -- on Nov. 1, according to the singer’s management agency Starship Entertainment.

The new album, Hyolyn’s second solo project after “Love & Hate” in 2013, will launch on Nov. 8 alongside three music videos.

The powerful vocalist has also lent her voice to a track on Asian-American hip-hop EDM group Far East Movement’s new album “Identity,” scheduled for release Friday, and collaborated with renowned Italian electronic music producer Giorgio Moroder last month at the 2016 Seoul International Music Fair MU:CON.

Far East Movement’s “Identity” also features several other K-pop singers, including Loco, Tiffany of Girls’ Generation and Urban Zakapa.
