BTS broke their career-best record on Billboard’s Pop Songs chart with their new single “Dynamite“!

Billboard has announced that “Dynamite” grabbed No. 30 on the Pop Songs chart dated August 29. The chart ranks the week’s most popular pop songs based on mainstream top 40 radio airplay detections measured by Nielsen Music.

This is BTS’s highest ranking on the chart ever! Their previous highest debut was No. 35, which they achieved with “Boy With Luv” featuring Halsey last year.

Billboard has shared that following its August 21 midnight ET release, “Dynamite” had 2,301 plays in its first three days. In comparison, “Boy With Luv” had 1,230 plays in its first chart frame.

The song also becomes the group's highest-career entry on the chart.

Most Billboard charts that reflect sales and streaming numbers are based on data from a Friday-to-Thursday cycle, which is why BTS’s “Dynamite” will be hitting Billboard’s sales and streaming charts next week, instead of this week. However, radio airplay charts follow a Monday-to-Sunday cycle, which means “Dynamite” could enter the Pop Songs chart after three days of airplay.

Billboard’s August 29-dated charts will be updated on their website on August 25.

Congratulations to BTS!
