BTS Becomes First K-Pop Artist To Enter Apple Music’s A-List For Pop
BTS has achieved yet another first!
Their remix for “MIC Drop” with Steve Aoki entered Apple Music’s A-List for Pop, a playlist featuring some of the hottest tracks chosen by the editors themselves. This is reportedly the first time a K-pop artist has been included in the playlist.
On December 7, BTS’s official Twitter thanked ARMYs for making this happen.

Meanwhile, BTS recently became the first K-pop group to enter the top 40 of Billboard’s Hot 100. Their remix for “MIC Drop” also became the first song by a K-pop group to reach No. 1 on the iTunes Top Songs chart in the U.S., and has also ranked high on charts in the United Kingdom, Germany, and many other countries.
Congratulations to BTS!
