Bruno Mars’ ‘APT.’ Joins BTS’ ‘Dynamite’ as Only K-Pop Hits to Go Top Five on Pop Airplay Chart
In a remarkable feat, Bruno Mars’ latest single “APT.” has become the second K-pop hit in history to reach the top five of the Billboard Pop Airplay chart. The achievement follows BTS’s “Dynamite” earlier this year.
According to Nielsen Broadcast Data Systems (BDS), “APT.” peaked at number four on the chart dated Nov. 18, making it the first solo artist since Drake in 2018 to achieve such a feat without any explicit content.
The song has been widely praised for its catchy beats and nostalgic vibes, reminiscent of Mars’ past hits like “Uptown Funk” and “24K Magic.” It appears that his fans have responded positively to this new release, allowing it to reach new heights on the charts.
As we move forward, it will be interesting to see if any other K-pop acts can replicate this success.
