BLACKPINK’s Rosé Breaks Billboard Record with ‘APT.’ Duet Featuring Bruno Mars

Rosé of global K-pop phenomenon BLACKPINK continues to make history. Her powerful duet ‘APT.’ with pop icon Bruno Mars has charted for the 27th consecutive week on the Billboard Hot 100, securing the No. 16 spot despite a three-rank drop from the previous week.

This incredible feat breaks the previous record set by FIFTY FIFTY’s ‘Cupid’, which had stayed on the chart for 25 weeks, making Rosé the K-pop female artist with the longest-running charted single in Hot 100 history.

Originally released in October as a pre-release single from her first full-length solo album, ‘APT.’ became an instant global hit. The synergy between Rosé and Bruno Mars resonated deeply with fans across continents, propelling the track to dominate charts both in South Korea and internationally.

The skyrocketing success of ‘APT.’ contributed to Rosé being named one of Time magazine’s ‘100 Most Influential People in the World 2025,’ underscoring her impact not only in music but also in global pop culture.

Meanwhile, fellow BLACKPINK member Jennie is also making waves on the Billboard charts. Her solo debut track ‘Like Jennie’, from her first full-length album, secured the No. 99 spot on the Billboard Hot 100, marking its second consecutive week on the chart and third overall entry.

‘Like Jennie’ continues a strong streaming and chart performance, becoming the first female solo track of the year to reach No. 1 on Korea’s Melon Top 100 and Daily Chart. Internationally, the track surpassed the 200 million streaming milestone on Spotify, setting another major record for the K-pop star.
