KPop Hunts the Charts with a Golden Season
Description
K-Pop Demon Hunters make history as the soundtrack rises to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 while “Golden” is to hold strong on the Hot 100, scoring a rare double crown. We look at how long Golden can reign before Taylor Swift arrives, and what this moment means for the soundtrack’s legacy.
We also dive into Sabrina Carpenter’s second week as “Tears” slips behind “Manchild,” and why timing matters so much for a No. 1 hit. Plus sombr’s steady climb with “12 to 12,” Olivia Dean’s breakthrough, and Ed Sheeran’s new album — decent numbers but far from his past highs, raising the question: is he moving into his legacy era while still filling stadiums? And of course, new drops from Drake, Twenty One Pilots, and an upcoming release from Cardi B.
