Lisa and Maroon 5’s “Priceless” rises to No. 7 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart, passing BTS’s “My … More
Blackpink and BTS both emerged as exporters of K-pop to the rest of the world more than half a decade ago, and the two beloved groups made history when they began reaching the Billboard charts in the U.S. In the years since, not only have the two bands racked up multiple bestselling albums and numerous hit songs, but the members that make up those acts have also enjoyed careers as soloists.
One of the most commercially successful of the four Blackpink singers, Lisa, advances again on one of Billboard’s pop radio tallies this time around. As she does, she breaks a tie with BTS that was set only a few days ago.
Lisa Reaches a New Peak on the Adult Pop Airplay Chart
Lisa climbs one space on the Adult Pop Airplay chart this week as “Priceless,” her collaboration with Maroon 5, moves from No. 8 to No. 7. The tune is one of only five that credit any K-pop star — a musician largely associated with the genre, regardless of where they’re originally from — to break into the highest tier. It now stands as the second-highest rising hit by any artist from that part of the world on the Adult Pop Airplay tally.
Lisa Bests BTS’s Chart Record
Last week, “Priceless” was matched with “My Universe,” a collaboration between Coldplay and BTS. That track debuted on the Adult Pop Airplay chart in October 2021, and in the 20 frames it spent on the roster, it climbed as high as No. 8. Now, it’s been pushed to third place, just one rung behind “Priceless.”
Lisa Trails Her Blackpink Bandmate Rosé
Now that Lisa has beaten the highest slot that BTS ever reached, the two highest-rising hits of all time by K-pop acts on the Adult Pop Airplay ranking are by Blackpink members. Rosé’s “Apt.,” which benefited from a feature by Bruno Mars, missed out on becoming the first No. 1 by any K-pop musician by just one space, as it peaked at No. 2.
“Priceless” Hits New Highs on Several Tallies
“Priceless” reaches a new peak on both the Adult Pop Airplay and Radio Songs charts this week. On the latter list — which isn’t specific to any one format — Lisa and Maroon 5 lift four spaces to No. 43. The same track holds at its No. 24 high point on the Adult Contemporary ranking and climbs again to No. 19 on the Pop Airplay tally after once peaking at No. 18.
