BLACKPINK member Jennie has demonstrated her commanding influence in the global music market as a solo artist, setting a new high for her main Billboard chart performance in the United States.

A second historic record in K-pop solo history… a stunning synergy with Tame Impala

According to Billboard’s latest chart in the U.S. on the 14th, Jennie’s collaboration track with the world-renowned producer Tame Impala, “Dracula (Remix),” has claimed No. 5 on the main single chart, the “Hot 100.” That marks a rise of three spots from the previous week, the highest record of Jennie’s solo career to date.

This new foothold in the top 5 comes after “Gone” by BLACKPINK’s Rosé and Bruno Mars, which reached No. 3, making it the second-highest ranking ever for a K-pop female solo artist.

TikTok challenge frenzy and surpassing 400 million streams on Spotify

The key to the success of “Dracula” (Remix) lies in the combined force of global short-form platforms and traditional radio broadcasts. When Tame Impala’s original version, which was released last September, initially failed to draw attention, it met Jennie’s captivating vocals and rap, shifting the landscape of the global music market.

The spark for the hit was TikTok. Jennie’s witty rap segment matched the addictive quality unique to short-form content, triggering a wave of voluntary challenge crazes among users worldwide. That soon translated into increased music consumption, leading to results including entering No. 8 on Spotify’s Global Daily Chart and surpassing 400 million cumulative streams.

Dominating mainstream U.S. radio networks… No. 1 on “Pop Airplay”

After TikTok’s initial momentum flowed into music streaming, conservative major radio networks on the ground in the U.S. helped drive the rise up the rankings. With a radio audience index of 59.6 million, she held onto the No. 1 spot on the “Pop Airplay” chart for two straight weeks.

With Tame Impala’s distinctive, sensibility-driven production paired with Jennie’s global star power, she is also monopolizing the top spot for 27 weeks straight on the “Hot Dance/ Electronic Songs” chart.

Meanwhile, this week’s No. 1 on Billboard’s “Hot 100” is held by Ella Langley of the country genre, setting a historic record. Against the backdrop of fierce chart competition among pop stars, attention is on how far Jennie’s solo power—earning her a confident spot at No. 5—will continue to carry momentum.
