BTS - MIC Drop Remix Spends Its 8th Week on Billboard's Hot100 Chart

BTS’s “MIC Drop” remix has now been on Billboard’s Hot 100 for two months!

On January 23, Billboard released its charts for the week ending in January 27. BTS’s “MIC Drop” remix (produced by Steve Aoki and featuring rapper Desiigner) remains on the Hot 100 chart, which ranks the most popular songs in the United States. It’s spending its eighth week on the chart, this time at No. 79.

As “MIC Drop” broke BTS’s previous record among K-pop groups of four weeks on the chart with “DNA,” they’ve continued to set a new record with each additional week on the chart. The new record for K-pop group tracks is therefore now eight weeks!

While the remix shows continued strength on the Hot 100, BTS’s latest mini album “Love Yourself: Her” is also showing impressive longevity on the Billboard 200 chart, which reveals which albums are the most popular in the United States each week. “Love Yourself: Her” is in the No. 82 spot this week, after being at No. 75 last week.

“Love Yourself: Her” is also still at No. 1 on the World Albums chart, now in its 18th week overall on the chart. Their album “Wings” is at No. 4 while “You Never Walk Alone” comes in at No. 6.

More chart appearances by BTS this week include “Love Yourself: Her” at No. 46 on the Canadian Albums chart and the “MIC Drop” remix at No. 74 on the Canadian Hot 100 chart.

BTS remains at No. 1 on the Social 50 chart, and has risen to No. 11 on the Artist 100 chart from No. 19 last week.

Are they going to release a re-pack for LY:Her? I actually hope not. I want a brand new album and a re-pack of that album in 2018 as their two CBs so they can maximize their Daesang collection

Well Love Yourself is supposed to be a series so I assume there are gonna be more than 2 albums. We're gonna get Hobi's mixtape first, then probably the new album. Namjoon also said he wants to release something after Hobi so God knows how that's gonna work out. There are also the dramas if they are still planning on releasing those.

In any case, we're not gonna get the new album earlier than March because of the Olympics.

Honestly I assumed it's gonna be 4 parts too because of the Chinese idiom but then again they started with 承 which is not the first part of the idiom, right? So who knows. Maybe they switched up the parts? Back in July/August they said "Love Yourself series that will continue into 2018."

They're not gonna let us live this year either.

Tbh I don't remember that but you might be right. Idk why I was stuck on it being 3 parts? Probably because of the HYYH series.

Yeeey for them! Another week in hot 100 is insane and look at queen Her number one in the world album chart and still in billboard 200. Really curious to see how the next comeback will be

They released the remix in the US market at a good time. Most of the major album releases happened earlier in the year (in time for the Grammy's deadline). Also, the promotion of song at sporting events and tv shows has been a nice bit of marketing.
