BLACKPINK's Jennie Outshines BTS Jungkook's 'Seven' Without Promotional Blitz
In an unexpected turn of events, BLACKPINK's Jennie , following her departure from YG Entertainment and debut with label OA, has set a new record in the K-Pop soloist category. Her collaborative track, "One of the Girls," featuring The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp, quietly released alongside The Idol, has now become the most Shazamed song of 2023, leaving behind BTS' Jungkook 's "Seven" with Latto.
"One of the Girls," despite minimal promotion, has become a viral sensation on platforms like TikTok and Reels, captivating audiences with its expertly crafted slow-burning R&B and ethereal elements. The song's success lies not in elaborate promotional campaigns but in the artists' existing popularity and the track's undeniable appeal.
Surpassing Jungkook and Latto's joint single with an impressive 2.03 million Shazams, Jennie 's solo journey is riding high on success. The track's streaming numbers are a testament to its widespread acclaim, boasting 34.5 million listeners and over 1.2 billion streams on Spotify. What's noteworthy is that Jennie achieved this milestone without the release of a solo album, a feat that even outshines the BTS Golden maknae, Jungkook, with a monthly Spotify listener count of 34.4 million.
Jennie's rise to the top comes at a time when her former YG Entertainment colleague, Jungkook, is temporarily absent from the music scene due to his enlistment in South Korea's mandatory military service. Both Jungkook and Jimin enlisted together, graduating after completing basic military service and undergoing additional training. While Jungkook's absence is felt, Jennie's "One of the Girls" continues to soar, marking a defining moment in her individual career.
In the ever-evolving landscape of K-Pop, BLACKPINK 's Jennie has proven that solo success is within reach, even without the conventional promotional strategies. "One of the Girls" stands tall, not just as a song but as a symbol of an artist confidently stepping into the spotlight and claiming her place at the forefront of the K-Pop soloist category.
