In the realm of solo boy band success, Rosé continues this incredible trajectory, charting a clear path toward dominance. With her album “Ruby” gaining momentum, her “Apt.” track is a vital part of her efforts. This breakthrough not only solidifies her place among the most successful boy bands overall but also contributes to her standing as a leader in female solo artists of K-pop.
Inades, Rosé’s “Apt.” chart performance is a historical achievement, placing her at the top in a sector that typically views solo girls in the same category. This position supersedes that of other sing-alongs, including a solo K-pop artist. The song is also notable for its duration on the chart, spending 21 weeks – the longest since “Cupid.” with the addition of BT’s “Dynamite.”
Before this week, Rosé’s chart-topping had coincided with other singles tied at No. 20 in its second week. Her music though holds firm precision by keeping it in both top five and top two in its third and fourth weeks. Multiple collaborators have boosted the performance of “Apt.” together, but it remains a standout individual success.
The week ahead showcases Blackpink’s continued success, with three of its members打卡 the chart. Lisa’s “Born Again” joins the top two with “Handlebars,” Jennie with “Handlebars.” The lineup also includes Dua Lipa’s “Keep Going,” up for grabs in the Rock/Affixed chart. “Apt.” boosts the band to top four, slipping behind the leader but within the top five of the chart.
As the months hang in the balance, Rosé’s solo journey is a testament to her talent and the rising trend of solo success in K-pop. Her song “Apt.” is a testament to her shoulders, removable to an extraordinary rigor.
