BLACKPINK continues to set another admirable record on Youtube
On the evening of February 7, BLACKPINK’s dance video for the song “How You Like That” officially reached 1 billion views, and set a record for being the first group in the world to own a dance practice to achieve this feat. This is also the first product that is not the MV of the excellent YG group to reach 1 billion views on YouTube.
Previously, many fans thought BLACKPINK’s dance performance video for How You Like That might even surpass the view count of the song’s official MV because of the tremendous rise in views. In less than 3 months after hitting the 1 billion mark, the dance performance video for this smash hit has earned another 80 million views, achieving 1 billion and 80 million views in total as of April 23.
Therefore, the gap between the official How You Like That MV, which currently has 1 billion 84 million views, and the dance performance video is rapidly narrowing with only 4 million views apart. BLACKPINK may own a dance performance video with more views than the official billion-view MV, something that has never happened before.
BLACKPINK’s dance performance video for How You Like That is able to attract such massive attention because the song is good, the choreography is satisfying to watch, and the members in black outfits dancing in the pink background feel simple yet their visuals and dance lines are beyond eye-catching, making it impossible to just play the video once. How You Like That dance being so viral also explains why the number of views on the performance video doesn’t stop skyrocketing.
