    Billboard changed rules. They're not comparable. Even BTS suffered drop in sales and points so not sure why this is repeatedly brought up to shade BP.

    Yes, Shut Down only had 95 points. Daechwita which debuted at 76 on Hot 100 with 88 points would have had a top 30 debut with charts this weak.

    Billboard rules have nothing to do with this. Not only was Shutdown lacking sales but in streams too. Blackpink's US fandom is very very poor and they have gotten less than 10k sales for Shut Down.

    Shut Down only got 12 million streams and mainly cause the Spotify deal saved it from being filtered, without which the numbers would have been far worse.

    What about streaming?

    Ice Cream - 18.3mn streams

    Pink Venom - 14.3 mn streams

    Shut Down - 12mn streams


    Shut Down benefitted from an entire week long Spotify deal for free on demand streaming and was placed at 1 on TTH, same as Pink Venom.

    pink venom did not benefit from the deal but it outperformed shut down which had the deal. Black pink excel the most with single releases, yg has to smartly make use of this instead of media playing every where about how BP is overtaking BTS and kpop.

    YG probably knew Shut Down and the whole album would underperform, hence they went for the deal to save face.

    What's the link between the title and the thread op? :thinkerpepe:
