In a remarkable achievement, BLACKPINK’s Rosé has etched her name in history by becoming the second K-pop act to break into the top 10 of Billboard’s Radio Songs chart and the first female K-pop artist to do so. She now stands alongside the famous group BTS as one of the few K-pop acts to ever reach this prestigious milestone.
Rosé’s collaboration with renowned artist Bruno Mars, titled “APT., ”has soared to No.7 on the Radio Songs chart. This success is particularly noteworthy, considering how challenging it has been for K-pop artists to gain visibility on American radio.
“APT.”has made an impressive mark, becoming only the second track by a K-pop artist to enter the Billboard song chart. This accomplishment surpasses the previous record held by BTS, whose hit “Dynamite”peaked at No.10 in 2020, as reported by Forbes. Thus, Rosé now boasts the highest-charting hit of all time by a K-pop artist.
Chart Performance of “APT.”
The song’s historic success on the radio has been complemented by its strong performance across various Billboard charts. Notably, “APT.”claimed the top spot on the Pop Airplay chart for several weeks, marking it as the first K-pop song to achieve this feat.
Furthermore, “APT.”reached a peak position of No.5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and maintained its presence in the top 10 of the Radio Songs chart for an extended period.
Bruno Mars expressed keen interest in “APT., ”selecting it from three potential tracks that Rosé had considered for their collaboration. The inspiration behind the song, stemming from a Korean drinking game, caught Mars’s attention and contributed to the song’s appeal, as per various reports including a piece from allkpop.
