Question: Do certifications actually count for something or are they just nice to have?

It's really just for bragging rights, you would still have the sales even if they aren't certified.

Quote from babyjinx1221

compared to Western artists?

Closest comparison I could find would be Ed Sheeran, who's been officially distributed in the U.S. since 2011. He has ~15M certified album equivalents and 55M certified song equivalents (not weighted as much as albums)

Quote from chaesooo

what a BIG loss to Ron. I don't feel any remorse though.

I hope something can be done with the spotify filtering rates.

Spotify has deep connections with UMG, artists under UMG have also had huge hits on spotify with extremely low filtering rates in the past year too

I remember that lmao, BTS was topping their revenue list with just a fraction of their discography. UMG took the biggest W I've ever seen here

Quote from Ves

So Butter... joint custody? If BTS aren't really do the Gra*my push, who is? Ron?

If it's Ron I feel like he's gonna sabotage it, there's no way he's not salty about this

Quote from MassiveKpopFan

Give them playlisting and watch the industry quake in fear. I'm waiting for it.

I wonder if this means spotify will promote them like they do Olivia and Kid Laroi

Quote from wendii

Nah, rating were low across the board for all th shoes due to the pandemic.

However streams were up and it seems more and more award shows are finally catching up that streaming is the future.

Compared to previous years, it's still bleeding relevance. I don't think it will ever fully die tho

Quote from wendii

No, and tbh BTS doesn’t seem to be focusing much of campaigning this year anyway

Grannys are on the brink of death this year anyway after the abysmal performance of last year's show

Quote from ArmyBlink0

So........atlrs, how is the "they aren't famous in the U.S" narrative going?

It's always so entertaining to watch these narratives fall apart, now they have to stress about making up new narratives lmao

At least now we have another figure to point to when people say nobody knows them in the US lmao

If I were Ron Perry I would be punching the wall rn, he literally just took the largest loss possible lmao. Also apparently BTS has 10.4M equivalent lifetime album sales in the US, totally not mainstream amirite guys

The trolling kinda loses its purpose when you admit that it's just an act for attention

Quote from BlackpinkHouse

Y'all going hard trying to bait me. I'm trying to be nice here!!

well, what OP said is true

Well, I think armys will finally have their wish of 7M preorders

Based on what they've said about their english singles after the release of PTD, I don't think this is likely. It kinda seems like they want to go back to releasing primarily in Korean for the time being, and the wait is probably just so they can tour when this next album comes out.

YouTube charts

Hylt concluded its first year with 2.6B+ streams & it gains 20M-25M streams on a weekly basis so combined together it's either at 3B or very very close

Dynamite definitely has over 2B now, maybe even 2.5B

For the past 12 months, which excludes about 1.5 months from dynamite's total streams, youtube charts says dynamite got 1.96B so i'd guess between 2.5B and 3B

Quote from HardcoreBLINK

Probably but

HYLT currently has 3B alone on YouTube...

where do you see these numbers? and do you know how much dynamite has?

youtube themselves only count about 1.35B for HYLT in the past year, which excludes around 3 months from it's lifetime streams

South Asian streaming platform

U said across all platforms, I told u no not on those 2 platforms & QQ in China

I said all platforms as in combined, not individually

Quote from HardcoreBLINK

No not on YouTube or joox

joox? Also the gap on spotify makes up for youtube

Quote from Tic_tac_toe

The main video is at 977mil views. The dance practice is at 870m views. That’s 1.8 billion views for HYLT in a little over a year. No kpop song is capable of having its main video and dance practice hit 1 billion views in a little over a year.

And then it had 11mil videos on tiktok no kpop song even remotely comes close to it. That’s INSANE

That’s the definition of a viral video.

For me these are some of the most important numbers.

Dynamite got more streams across all platforms combined tho despite being released later
