BLACKPINK’s Rosé has just achieved an exciting career first on U.S. radio!
On October 29 local time, Billboard revealed that Rosé had made her debut as a soloist on Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart, which measures weekly plays on mainstream Top 40 radio stations across the United States.
For the week ending on November 2, “APT.”—Rosé’s hit collab single with Bruno Mars—entered the Pop Airplay chart at No. 33.
“APT.” also topped both Billboard’s Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. chart this week, in addition to breaking the record for the highest ranking ever achieved by a female K-pop artist on the Hot 100, where it debuted at No. 8.
Meanwhile, “APT.” debuted at No. 2 on both Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart and Digital Song Sales chart—meaning it was the second most-streamed and second best-selling song of the week in the United States.
Finally, Rosé re-entered Billboard’s Artist 100 at No. 56 this week, marking her highest ranking to date on the chart.
Congratulations to Rosé!
