According to the latest chart (dated August 3) released by Billboard, an American music media outlet, on the 30th (local time), Jimin ranked 2nd on the main album chart, Billboard 200, with his 2nd solo album, ‘Muse.’
The album also ranked high on detailed charts such as ‘Top Album Sales’ (2nd) and ‘Top Current Album Sales’ (2nd). The title song ‘Who’ showed off its power by reaching 14th place on the main song chart ‘Hot 100’ as well as 1st place on ‘Global 200’, ‘Global (Excluding US)’, and ‘Digital Song Sales’.
In particular, all seven tracks on the album, including “Who,” which topped the “Global (Excluding the US)” chart, entered the charts. In addition to the title track, other tracks, “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band (feat. Loco)” (60th), “Be Mine” (123rd), “Slow Dance (feat. Sofia Carson)” (159th), and “Rebirth (Intro)” (187th), also entered the “Global 200” rankings.
This achievement has become an opportunity to showcase Jimin’s presence as a solo artist. Following his first solo album ‘FACE’ released last year, he has continuously ranked high on the ‘Billboard 200’ and has had a total of six individual songs enter the ‘Hot 100’. On the ‘Digital Song Sales’ chart, he was recorded as the K-pop solo artist with the most number one hits (six times).
Big Hit Music, the agency, said, “This achievement was possible because of the artist’s sincerity and consistency without resorting to tricks.” In the video ‘Exchange Album MMM (Mini & Moni Music) – Jimin’, which reviews the new album in detail, Jimin shared a behind-the-scenes story about relearning the basics of vocals while preparing the album. This is a part where you can see his efforts to develop further even though he has had the best career with BTS.
The more powerful performance is one of Jimin’s strengths that has taken the global music market by storm. In fact, the “Who” performance video that aired on the popular NBC talk show “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on the 23rd dominated the top rankings of YouTube trending videos in several countries/regions. This buzz led to “Who” rising in the rankings on various music charts.
Meanwhile, ‘Who’ has been maintaining the top spot for 7 consecutive days (23rd-29th) on ‘Daily Top Song Global’ of Spotify, the world’s largest music streaming platform.
