FIFTY FIFTY’s “Cupid” Ties BTS’s “Butter” To Become 3rd Longest-Charting K-Pop Song On Billboard’s Hot 100
FIFTY FIFTY has reached an impressive milestone on both the U.S. and U.K. charts!
Earlier this year, FIFTY FIFTY became the fastest K-pop artist ever to debut on Billboard’s Hot 100 (its weekly ranking of the most popular songs in the United States)—and in the months since, their hit song “Cupid” hasn’t dropped off the chart for a single week.
FIFTY FIFTY has now become the first K-pop girl group ever to chart a song for 20 weeks on the Hot 100: for the week ending on August 12, “Cupid” remained on the chart at No. 41, extending its own record as the longest-charting song by a female K-pop artist.
“Cupid” has also tied BTS‘s “Butter” to become the third longest-charting K-pop song in Hot 100 history, bested only by BTS’s “Dynamite” and PSY‘s “Gangnam Style.”
Additionally, “Cupid” is now the first K-pop girl group song in history to spend 20 weeks on the United Kingdom’s Official Singles Chart, where it climbed back up to No. 76 this week.
Congratulations to FIFTY FIFTY on making history on the international charts!
