Rosé leaving Bruno Mars is a "storm", new MV fails, shameful achievements

After the success of APT in collaboration with Bruno Mars, Rosé was expected to continue to explode with a new MV. However, right from the debut, the BlackPink member suffered a miserable defeat, when she was not as well received as before.

According to the latest update of the Spotify platform, the song " Number One Girl" by Rosé of Blackpink, released on November 22, debuted at number 31 on the global Spotify chart, with 3,075,155 streams.

This achievement surprised many audiences, because Rosé is currently the hottest face in Kpop thanks to the effect of the hit song "APT." in collaboration with American artist Bruno Mars.

Previously, "APT." debuted with 6.8 million streams on Spotify globally, setting a record for the biggest debut by a female K-pop solo artist. "Number One Girl"'s first-day streams were more than halved compared to "APT.".

In fact, the number of streams released for "Number One Girl" is lower than the recent solo songs of the other 3 members of Blackpink. Jisoo's "Flower" reached 4.67 million streams. Jennie's "Mantra" reached 5.25 million streams. Lisa's songs "Rockstar", "New Woman", "Moonlit Floor" reached 5.89 million streams, 6 million streams and 4.48 million streams respectively.

Meanwhile, Rosé's monthly Spotify listeners hold the K-pop record with 56 million listeners. Therefore, the 3 million first-day streams for "Number One Girl" are disappointing. On social media, some opinions say that Rosé no longer maintains her appeal without collaborating with Bruno Mars.

However, there are also opposing opinions that 3 million streams is not a low achievement compared to the general Kpop level, especially for a sad ballad - not Kpop's strong genre.

In addition, this is a song that Rosé announced to be released unexpectedly, without any introduction or promotion in advance. "Number One Girl" is also not the title track of Rosé's upcoming album "rosie", so fans did not pay too much attention to it.

"Number One Girl" only had 19 hours to count the number of streams on November 22. Fans hope that the number of streams will increase on the second day. The album "rosie" will officially be released on December 6, 2024. "Number One Girl" is also the song that Rosé wants to dedicate to her fans. Accordingly, the female singer considers her fans as "number one" because they are always by her side.

Additionally, "Number one" is the name of the fan group that Rosé came up with when writing this song as a way to prove her love for her fans.

A look back at APT's current achievements. The single created a global fever when it was first released and broke records worldwide. Released to the audience on the afternoon of October 18, after more than 35 days and 14 hours, the MV "APT." by Rosé and Bruno Mars has surpassed 400 million views on Youtube.

In addition to becoming the fastest music video to reach 400 million views in 2024, "APT" also set two new K-pop YouTube records: the fastest music video by a K-pop solo artist to reach 400 million views and the fastest music video by a female K-pop artist.

Notably, Rosé also broke the previous record set by BlackPink's "How You Like That." Previously, BlackPink's "How You Like That" took about 43 days to reach 400 million views in 2020.

"APT." achieved a Perfect All-Kill (PAK) on domestic music charts, topped the Spotify chart in the US, reached No. 1 on the iTunes chart in 40 regions, and ranked No. 1 on China's largest music platform, QQ Music, dominating both the Americas and Asia at the same time.

Additionally, "APT." also debuted at number 8 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart, marking the highest position for a female K-pop artist and the first single by a female K-pop solo artist to debut in the top 10.
