How You Like That is the biggest kpop hit ever

Those are the facts.

You're lying to yourself if you don't see it.

Like wtf it has 11 million videos on tiktok (no kpop song even remotely comes close BTW)

The main music video AND the performance video are both very likely to hit a billion views. That's fucking INSANE. Like eye- CHILL BRO. CHILL.

It's got like 430million stream on spotify and it's not in english nor featuring anyone. AGAIN fucking insane.

But if you were to ask me i'd say it's the biggest hit ever simply based on tiktok kek because as we all know tiktok >>>> The one true measure of success in today's world kekeke.

Anyway Discuss.

Spittin FACTS sis.

No English, no guest stars, no Presidential endorsements, no radioplay or mediaplay, zero US promotions, etc.

Just pure organic growth and popularity.

ETA: I wish the old forum was still around, it wouldve been hella fun to bring back some old threads when the song came out and everyone was already calling it a flop lol.

YG hit jackpot with those viral lines "How you like that" and "look at me look at you"

Pure viral sensation done extremely right.

Tic_tac_toe woke up and chose violence

I chose to tell the truth as an ardent tiktok consumer

Quote from Drew_B

Imagine trying to introduce a new person to kpop and saying HYLT is the best kpop has to offer lol.

"best something has to offer" and "popular" need not be same? Do you consume WAP and think it's the pinnacle of music or something?

But things are popular for their own reasons.

Quote from Drew_B

Kpop fans have always told me the highest sales and most popular equals the best. I know better. But if we go by their rules HYLT is the greatest kpop song ever made.

Good luck getting new kpop fans on board using that sing lol.

you still don't make sense. Pop music is meant to be popular. By definition if something is popular THAT is what people are interested in and THAT's what got ppl into kpop.

So like literally it's easy if you have something catchy like HYLT that's the whole point of having 11 million videos on tiktok.

Quote from HardcoreBLINK

It's impact on Tiktok & youtube are unparalleled for sure but the song is still average for BP standards

Love sick girls and The Album are average for me in general but that's a conversation for another thread and day

Someone wants a hit thread

Me, your resident tiktok expert.

Also there's nothing controversial in this thread

Quote from monalisalove

Tbh HYLT is really huge. Bc of the success in tiktok here in Brazil the music is everywhere on insta with people using it. Totally international!

bro tiktok is THE way.

Quote from bumble-bunny

tic tac you liar. next you're gonna tell me you stan BTS

over my cold dead body maybe

Quote from monalisalove

Actually nowadays yes. TikTok really became a way to ww success and HYLT went viral on tiktok, YouTube, insta and twitter with it being used as Biden song winning the us election. Truly international!

if you take the spotify charts like more half are songs are those that are viral on tiktok. People are structuring songs so that they can become tiktok sensations.

Tiktok also levels the playing ground a lot. Even nugus can hit big if the song is catchy enough. Take weeekly. Their song is viral and it's raking up those spotify streams and youtube streams rn.

Quote from HardcoreBLINK

For u.

My opinion is the only one that matters hardcore get with the times.

Quote from Minazuki

Who are you and what did you do with Tic?

The queen only cares about EXO

I care about tiktok

How do you think i found out about hyunjin thank tiktok that mmmh edit of him made all the difference

After June 7th you won't hear word other than EXO from me anyway. But exo dipped again after sharing a fucking gif so now everyone has to endure tic tac toe's unsolicited opinions.

Quote from penepol

Tiktok is how we decipher if a song is successful now?

Yes.

Quote from SandyBee3

I don’t know if your trolling or being serious.

I don’t use TikTok so I don’t know how huge it is

not trolling eye- it's true. Bro others have like few 100k's or maybe a couple of million videos in the official audio. No joke the gap is SO high.

Also like i said between Youtube Spotify and tiktok HYLT >>>

Quote from Minazuki
