announced the Billboard singles chart a week ago. The South Korean boy group BTS airborne the championship with the single "Dynamite" and reached a new record: the first Asian singer to win the empty crown and the second Asian singer to win the single.
And just this week, BTS (BTS)’s new single "Dynamite" achieved a streak title on the Billboard singles chart with a staggering 182,000 downloads, 17.5 million streaming media and 16 million radio views in the second week. Created the history of the Asian men's team.
quickly slapped a lot of black and sour netizens who have been using "second week diving". These keyboard guys were very upset about BTS winning the championship. I doubt that their songs are unpleasant, the style is weird, and the style is strange.
For this phenomenon, I just want to say, is it so difficult to admit that others are good?
doesn’t seem to know when, it seems that from the post-bar era, a kind of "contempt chain" has emerged in China-
A. Despise in music regions: Europe and the United States> Japan> Korea> Hong Kong and Taiwan> Mainland> Southeast Asia and other regions; Music genres despise: Classical>Jazz>Rock>Folk>Electronic Music>Pop>Rap>Legend of Phoenix;
In particular, there is a "chain in chain" within each genre. Taking folk songs as an example, it is probably: Li Zhi/Zhou Yunpeng >Zhao Lei>Good Sister>Song Dongye;
C. Music professional despise: Composition> Conductor> Orchestra> Folk Music> Vocal Music> Music Education> Musicology;
D. Instrumental Despise: Piano> Violin> Chinese and Cello> Wind Music> Percussion (Especially the triangle);
E. Singing contempt: Bel Canto> Nationality> Popular.
and from the post-bar era began to stage various tear x wars, explosive wars. Although Tieba's momentum is waning now, this does not prevent everyone from fighting on various social platforms. The editor of
really wants to ask why the BTS is empty crown, but the B list cannot be seen? Just water?
is because it is generally believed that the European and American lists are famous for their strength and sales, and bulletproof is a kpop boy group born, idol identity, beautiful male appearance, so rely on fans, male sex economy? Just deny strength? For this kind of argument, the editor really just wants to say-thousands of people, if you don’t like it, doesn’t mean that other people don’t like them. If you don’t like them, then you can listen to the songs of singers you like, but please don’t Maliciously belittle others' achievements, respect the two words, don't you know it?
BTS is not popular in Europe and America?
I think I have heard that passers-by of the BTS will have this question:
BTS are they really popular in Europe and America?
Under normal circumstances, there will be two answers to this kind of question, one is army Ami (BTS fans) answer, one is-no, it’s just that a group of people in Europe and the United States who like KPOP like them, just follow the fan list. Do data well.
Okay, let’s look at the data:
YouTube data
BigHit (BTS) channel’s four most viewed videos, namely BTS’ Boy with Luv (691 million) and Fake Love "(579.6 million), "IDOL" (53707 million), "Dynamite" (319.1 million).
and this "Dynamite" is BTS following "DNA", "Boy With Luv (Feat.Halsey)", "FAKE LOVE", "IDOL", "MIC Drop Remix", "FIRE", " Tears ", "Definitely", "Save ME", "NoThe 13th MV with 300 million views after "t Today", "Man" and "Spring Day".
On September 1, the Guinness World Records (Guinness World Records) of the United Kingdom publicly stated through the official website: "BTS broke the YouTube broadcast record with "Dynamite"."
Guinness World Records said: "BTS The group "Dynamite" MV was officially included in the "Most viewed YouTube video in 24 hours" and "Most viewed YouTube music video in 24 hours" ','The most viewed YouTube MV (Most viewed YouTube music video in 24 hours by a K-pop group) in the K-POP group' and other three departments."
and for many black sour favorites The rise of BTS relies on fans for data, and there are many female fans, but the editor wants to show you that on the BANGTAN TV channel of BTS’s own fan, you can see that the ratio of male and female fans is not very different. Male: 48%, female: 52%, 38% of fans in the US, and 11% of fans in the UK.
And in the performance of the tour to witness the appeal, the data of BTS is even more so good! The
tour mobilized the fan base in Europe and America.
2019 The BTS global tour is the third in the world at the box office. From the mobilization of the Speak Yourself tour in Europe and America last year, there are 2 games each in Los Angeles Rose Bowl, Chicago Military Field, and New Jersey MetLife Stadium. There are 6 games in total, with 299,770 mobilizations, including LA Rose Bowl With the mobilization of 113,040, the box office of 16,557,515 US dollars broke the venue record.
Wembley Stadium in London, UK, and France Stadium in Paris, France, 2 games each, 4 games in total, mobilizing 221,911. The mobilization of the Allianz Stadium in Sao Paulo, Brazil was 84,728.
It can be seen from the number of mobilizations and the number of sessions that BTS had a total of 12 tours in North America, South America and Europe last year. The total number of mobilizations was 606,409, with an average of more than 50,000 people mobilized per game.
If you have to have someone else’s data that can be used by fans to swipe the rankings, then the editor would like to ask these people-how to "swipe" real money, real tours, and these are not Southeast Asia, which is deeply influenced by Japanese and Korean culture, but Europe and the United States in the mainstream battlefield of world music, this also reflects from the side that the proportion of YouTube fans mentioned by the editor above is absolutely real, because BTS is really popular in Europe and the United States! The "Dynamite" on
music data is the first week of 300k sales (265k digital sales + 35k vinyl tape), 33.9M US streaming media, and 11.6M radio data. Become the third men's group to win the B chart after the Smith Spaceship and the Jonas brothers, and it is also the 43rd single of the B chart since the establishment of the B chart. And 265k digital sales are the highest first week sales since Taylor's "Look what you made me do" in 2017. At the same time, BTS has won 4 consecutive albums on the Billboard 200 album chart.
From free performances to empty top Billboard rankings
I believe that Amies still remember the trip to the United States in 2014. Who would have thought that taking flyers to the street to pull passers-by to watch the free performance of BTS will really come this far And today's results, they took 6 years.
The public’s impression of the last time Asians entered the B list should still be YG’s Uncle BirdPSY’s "Gangnam Style" many years ago, when Uncle Bird met the magic red Maroon 5’s "One More Night" and the radio offensive plus Upper BThe temporary "revision of rules" on the list has been ranked second for N long. And this time Bulletproof is also fighting in the rules. They are not from a large planning company, but gradually develop and grow in a small company. He did not cooperate with well-known European and American producers as soon as he entered the European and American markets, nor did he sign a contract with European and American labels. Relying on my own music, my strength has risen step by step, so I have obtained more valuable results.
If you have heard the song of BTS, you know why BTS can stand out in such a competitive KPOP world. BTS is one of the few KPOP groups that has participated in the production of songs and albums. The works of the assembly line can only make oneself fall into the curse of homogeneity more and more. In this streaming era, only by making music with one's own attitude can more people hear it. The serious musical attitude of BTS has injected soul into its works. I squeeze time out of the busy practice and announcement schedule to participate in the creation, and integrate my emotions into the work. The good, the bad, the sad, the unwilling, all put in the music. Incorporating the so-called art into the times and life, telling the confusion faced by a generation, standing in the audience instead of opposite, singing the thoughts and feelings of a group of people (have you found that BTS rarely sings love songs) , Won the resonance of a group of people, art comes from life, and ultimately must be integrated into life, bulletproof did it. And the BTS themselves are not stuck with one style, they seek multiple styles.
This is also the reason why BTS can bring expectations and surprises every time he returns, because you never know what kind of style he will bring when he returns. This is why they can get more every time they return. Favorite reason.
Xiaobian has something to say
With the rapid development of mobile data and streaming (from YouTube to Spotify and TikTok), it has completely changed the traditional physical sales + radio + downloaded music distribution method, which is also sending us a signal ——The mainstream music market/list dominated by European and American music has been challenged by different voices from all over the world. Due to the development of streaming media, the audience’s aesthetics has gradually become diversified. This is no longer the era when thousands of people rushed to buy the new albums of The Beatles and Michael Jackson. All the music exists on the Internet, and they are even willing to download and play People in MP3 have become antiquities. With the advent of the recommendation mechanism, typified music is gradually produced. In the future music market, more and more different voices will be heard by everyone. The first two years ago, a title list The Spanish style brought out by "Despacito" is still very strong. BTS’s "Dynamite" has allowed more people to hear voices from Asia. Can we imagine that in the future, we will also hear voices from Asia. What about the voice of China?
