According to the latest chart released on the 7th by Billboard, on the 3rd, BTS’ ‘Butter’ topped the main single chart ‘Hot 100’. This week, American rapper Lil Nas X’s new song ‘Industry Baby’ was released for the first time this week, with the longest record (19 weeks) in the history of ‘Hot 100’. However, ‘Butter’ in sales volume exceeded 10 times that of ‘Industry Baby’ and showed off its strong popularity.
The strength of ‘Butter’ did not stay only on the ‘Hot 100’ chart. It topped the new chart ‘Song of the Summer’ for 7 weeks in a row, and topped the ‘Digital Song Sales’ chart for the ninth time. Also, on the latest chart of the ‘Artist 100’, which measures the influence and recognition of an artist, it climbed to the top for the 19th time, breaking the record for the most in the duo/group category.
Tomorrow X Together succeeded in reversing the ‘Billboard 200’, the main album chart, with their 2nd full-length album ‘Chaos Chapter: Freeze’, released on May 31. This album first entered the 5th place on the ‘Billboard 200’ chart on June 19 and maintained the chart-in for eight consecutive weeks. And even now, more than two months after the album’s release, it has proven its global popularity by writing a reverse-running myth. ‘Chapter of Chaos: Freeze’ was ranked 121st on the ‘Billboard 200’, up 60 places from the previous week, and on the ‘World Album Chart’, it rose 2 places to 3rd. The first English song ‘Magic’ ranked 38th on the ‘Pop Airplay’ chart, which counts the number of weekly broadcasts of radio stations, and set a record for the 4th chart.
