Music from Netflix’s animated film “KPop Demon Hunters” strengthened its hold on the U.S. and global charts this week, led by HUNTR/X’s “Golden.” The single holds at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 while logging a third consecutive week atop both the Billboard Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. rankings, where it surpassed 100 million worldwide streams for the first time following a David Guetta remix release. Demand for the broader soundtrack also remains brisk. The album, released by Netflix and Republic Records, climbs one place to No. 2 on the Billboard 200 with 93,000 equivalent units, lifting its cumulative total to 435,000 since its debut five weeks ago. The project is generating multiple Hot 100 entries. “Your Idol” by Saja Boys and the cast rises to a new peak of No. 9, while “Soda Pop” moves 21-16 and “How It’s Done” holds at No. 19. Additional cuts such as “What It Sounds Like,” “Takedown” and “Free” all register new personal bests inside the Top 40, underscoring the soundtrack’s broad streaming and radio traction. The sustained chart presence gives the film one of the most successful animated soundtracks in recent memory and reinforces K-pop’s growing influence on both domestic and international listening habits.
“Golden” by HUNTR/X reaches #1 on the US Apple Music Songs Chart. https://t.co/FLhTXobEVL
