BTS Becomes 1st Artist To Sweep Billboard's Global 200, Global Excl. U.S., And Hot 100 Charts
BTS’s “Dynamite” rose to new heights on Billboard’s charts and proved their global success once again!
Billboard has announced that in addition to “Dynamite” hitting No. 1 again on the Hot 100 chart this week, it’s also taken the top spot on the new Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts.
The two charts were launched on September 14. Contrary to the Hot 100 that ranks songs based on their popularity in the United States, the new charts show the most popular tracks globally, based on sales and streaming data from more than 200 territories. The Billboard Global 200 chart includes data from all around the world, while the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart features data from territories excluding the United States.
On the Global 200 chart for the week ending in October 3, BTS’s “Dynamite” grabs No. 1 for the first time. Its success was fueled by 92.1 million global streams (up 16 percent from the previous week) and 58,000 global downloads (up 102 percent).
Meanwhile, the song remains at No. 1 on the Global Excl. U.S. chart for the second week. It garnered 78.9 million streams (up 17 percent) and 27,000 sold (up 44 percent) in territories outside the United States.
