BLACKPINK’s Rosé continues to soar to new heights on U.S. radio with “APT.”!
For the week ending on December 7, Rosé and Bruno Mars’ smash hit “APT.” rose to a new peak of No. 14 in its sixth week on Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart, which measures weekly plays on mainstream Top 40 radio stations across the United States.
Rosé is now the first female K-pop soloist ever to break the top 15—and only the second female K-pop artist overall. (Even including groups, “APT.” is only the second song by a female K-pop act to enter the top 15, following FIFTY FIFTY’s “Cupid.”)
Rosé has also become the first female K-pop soloist ever to enter the top 40 of Billboard’s Radio Songs chart (formerly Hot 100 Airplay), which measures weekly plays on U.S. radio stations across all musical genres. In its second week on the chart, “APT.” jumped to a new peak of No. 29.
Additionally, “APT.” topped both Billboard’s Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts for the sixth week in a row, extending its own record as the K-pop song with the second most weeks at No. 1 on the Global 200 (bested only by BTS’s Jungkook’s “Seven” featuring Latto, which topped the chart for seven weeks in 2023).
Rosé’s new single “number one girl” also made a strong debut on both global charts: the song entered the Global Excl. U.S. chart at No. 11 and the Global 200 at No. 29.
Meanwhile, “APT.” ranked No. 22 in its sixth consecutive week on Billboard’s Hot 100, in addition to returning to its peak of No. 2 on the Digital Song Sales chart—meaning it was once again the second best-selling song of the week in the United States. The song also stayed strong at No. 20 in its sixth week on the Streaming Songs chart.
Finally, Rosé jumped 43 ranks on Billboard’s Artist 100 this week, taking No. 48 in her seventh overall week on the chart as a soloist.
Congratulations to Rosé!
