BTS’s “Butter” and the new record it holds!
BTS’s single is so smooth, and now the group’s longest-running song on the BB Hot 100 at No.1.
Upon the song’s premiere last May 21st, it immediately skyrocketed to the No.1 spot for the weekly chart released on June 5th.
“Butter” has officially broken their previous record. “Dynamite,” which the group released back in 2020, charted at the Billboard Hot 100 three times at No.1.
What’s more, it is currently the record-holder to reach the peak of BB Hot 100 by any Asian act!
