T.O.P's former group BIGBANG and Jennie's BLACKPINK are two of the biggest names in the K-pop industry and both belong to YG Entertainment. However, the two artist in question previously announced their departure from the group, and following that, there were almost no chances of their public appearances together. However, the usage of Ruby album's Like JENNIE as a background music for T.O.P got fans thrilled.
They gushed over the "T.O.P X JENNIE CRUMBS" and said, "YG/Ex YG remaining on top because they're using T.O.P and Jennie's song in the background." A lot of fans of the idols made their joint edits and jokingly labelled them "father daughter." Fans couldn't get over it and demanded more such content release in the future. A T.O.P and Jennie collaboration, whether in music or acting, would be a dream come true for fans. They are eagerly hoping for their wish to come true.
