Black Pink's Lisa's debut solo album, 'MONEY', is showing a hot attraction as popular as the title song 'LALISA'.
Even the fact that a female K-pop solo artist entered the main chart of the mainstream pop market with a song in the hip-hop and rap genre is a remarkable achievement, but it is showing signs of a reversal in the rankings more than a month after it was announced.
Lisa's 'MONEY' recently entered the UK Official Chart Single Top 100 at #81. This is the second feat following the title song 'LALISA', which ranked 68th in the first week of the album's release. It is the first time that a song from an album by a K-pop female solo artist has made it to this chart.
Although it is not the title track of the album, 'MONEY', which was well-received by global music fans, made its mark on the US Billboard chart first.
Earlier, this song became the first female K-pop artist to top Billboard's 'Rap Digital Song Sales Chart', and Forbes said, 'Lisa broke the barrier in the hip-hop market, where American artists are mainstream, and achieved a historic achievement. It has proven that there is a foreign rap market in the United States, and We hope this success will pave the way for more musicians.”
Other records are also amazing. The song recently jumped to 9th place thanks to its steady popularity on the Spotify global chart, the world's largest music streaming platform. The exclusive performance video of 'MONEY' ranked first in 'YouTube Most Viewed Videos' in the first week of its release, and also ranked second in the second week. It took just over a week to reach 100 million views. The entire choreography video posted on YouTube yesterday (10th) ranked first in the world-wide trending video and reached 10 million views in just one day.
