Rosé is making serious waves in the streaming world! The BLACKPINK diva just shattered a major Spotify record, reaching 46.5 million monthly listeners thanks to the viral success of her latest single, “APT.” This collab with Bruno Mars isn’t just a hit—it has turned into a global takeover, catapulting Rosé to the top of K-pop, and leaving even BTS behind.
ROSÉ now holds the record for the highest monthly listeners peak for K-pop acts in history on Spotify with 46.45M, surpassing BTS (45.8M).

Following APT’s release, Rosé has been hitting milestones left and right. The track didn’t just debut in the top 10 of Billboard’s Hot 100 at No. 8, making her the first K-pop female soloist to do so—it also climbed spots on iTunes, Spotify, and Apple Music showing it’s a real infectious bop. And the cherry on top? The “APT.” music video reached 300 million views on YouTube faster than any other K-pop video, breaking a record previously held by PSY’s veteran hit Gentleman.
