BLACKPINK - Guinness world record on Spotify
'BLACKPINK' was inscribed on 'the
Guinness World Records' as the most-streamed girl group on Spotify in the
world, the group's agency said Saturday.
The band's songs had garnered 8.88
billion streams as of March 3, breaking the previous record of 8.4 billion
streams set by the British girl group 'Little Mix', YG Entertainment said,
citing the announcement from the Guinness World Records.
"Shut Down," the main single
off BLACKPINK's second full-length album, topped Spotify's global weekly chart,
making it the first K-pop act to achieve the feat.
The group has over 38 million
followers on the world's largest music streaming platform.
The quartet now has 20 ‘Guinness’
world records, also including those for the most-subscribed artist on YouTube
and the first female K-pop act to reach No. 1 on the main British and U.S.
albums charts.
