Rolling Stone praised 'Ruby' as "an album that intriguingly reinterprets the ideas of R&B-centric pop from the 2000s and 2010s," adding that "JENNIE possesses an impressive ability to dominate candy-coated pop R&B, with introspective moments reminiscent of Rihanna's 'Anti' (2016)."

Additionally, the American media outlet Complex also selected 'Ruby' as one of the 'Best Albums of 2025,' stating, "This album opens a new chapter for JENNIE," and highlighting tracks like 'like JENNIE' for their high-quality pop performances and ballads like 'twin' for showcasing her soft and delicate vocals.

Complex further praised 'Ruby' for not only its music but also for releasing seven high-quality music videos, demonstrating excellence in production and visual aesthetics.

JENNIE stands out as the only K-pop artist to be simultaneously featured on both Rolling Stone and Complex's lists, reaffirming her global influence.

'Ruby' includes a total of 15 tracks across various genres, with JENNIE taking on the role of producer for the entire album, infusing it with her unique identity and musical direction.
