BLACKPINK joins Shakira as only female artists to reach #1 on Global Spotify with multiple non-English songs
Girl group BLACKPINK once again proves their global influence with outstanding achievements, standing side by side with Shakira.
It is known that BLACKPINK’s songs, “Pink Venom” and “Shut Down” both reached No.1 in the Global Spotify chart. This makes BLACKPINK the first Korean act and the first girl group to reach such a position with multiple releases.
Kpop fans have been celebrating BLACKPINK’s success, as no other Asian act has been able to achieve this feat before. This achievement is significant for South Korea, as it raises the status of Kpop and highlights the genre’s global appeal, to the point it made headlines on various major media outlets.
So far, BLACKPINK and Shakira are the only female artists in history to have multiple non-English songs topping the Global Spotify chart, which is an incredible achievement.
Most remarkably, the fact that BLACKPINK and Shakira have achieved this historic record with non-English songs, shows the power of music to transcend language and cultural barriers. Their success has inspired fans around the world and proved that music truly is a universal language.
