BTS's Jungkook Sets Billboard 200 Record + "Standing Next To You" Hits New Peak On Pop Radio Airplay Chart

Even while serving in the military, BTS's Jungkook continues to make history on the Billboard charts!

For the week ending on January 27, Jungkook's solo debut album "GOLDEN" spent its 11th consecutive week in the top 50 of the Billboard 200, where it ranked No. 44.

Jungkook is now the first Korean solo artist ever to chart an album for 11 weeks on the Billboard 200—and he has also become the first K-pop soloist to spend 23 weeks on Billboard's Artist 100, where he took No. 28 this week.

Additionally, Jungkook's title track "Standing Next to You" successfully remained on Billboard's Hot 100 at No. 87 in its 11th consecutive week on the chart.

Jungkook also landed two songs on Billboard's Pop Airplay chart, which measures weekly plays on mainstream Top 40 radio stations across the United States: his The Kid LAROI and Central Cee collab "Too Much" stayed strong at No. 28, while "Standing Next to You" climbed to a new peak of No. 29.

Meanwhile, "Standing Next to You" climbed back up to No. 4 in its 11th week on Billboard's Digital Song Sales chart, meaning it was the fourth best-selling song of the week in the United States.

Outside of the Billboard 200, "GOLDEN" came in at No. 10 on Billboard's Top Current Album Sales chart and No. 12 on the Top Album Sales chart this week.

Finally, Jungkook continued to chart multiple songs on both of Billboard's global charts this week. On the Global Excl. U.S. Chart, "Seven" (featuring Latto) ranked No. 11, followed by "Standing Next to You" at No. 14 and "3D" (featuring Jack Harlow) at No. 43. On the Global 200, "Standing Next to You" came in at No. 23, "Seven" at No. 25, and "3D" at No. 68.

Congratulations to Jungkook!

Ariana Grande May Be About To Break Her Tie With BTS On The Hot 100

It looks like Ariana Grande has another big hit single on her hands. The singer recently returned to music after a break with her highly-anticipated single "Yes, And?," with fans snapping it up left and right. The tune has been dominating both the Spotify and iTunes charts ever since it dropped, and it seems like it's headed for a lofty start on the Billboard charts in a few days.

There is a good chance that "Yes, And?" will debut at No. 1 on next week's Hot 100. That starting point is far from certain, but several Billboard chart-predicting X accounts–as well as Billboard itself–have all suggested that there's a high likelihood that Grande will earn another leader with her just-dropped cut.

If "Yes, And?" launches atop the Hot 100, it will mark Grande's sixth No. 1 debut on the ranking of the most-consumed songs in the U.S. With one more instant smash, the singer and actress will break out of a tie with perhaps the most successful band on the planet at the moment.

Grande already counts five No. 1 debuts on the Hot 100 to her credit. She's currently tied with BTS for the third-most immediate rulers of all time. If "Yes, And?" is able to open in first place, she'll blow past the South Korean boy band–at least until they return.

If "Yes, And?" does become Grande's sixth No. 1 debut on the Hot 100, she won't be alone in that feat. Taylor Swift has already scored half a dozen quick rulers, so the two may tie in less than a week. Drake currently rules this bit of history, as he's seen nine tracks launch atop the list.

At present, Grande faces tough competition from Jack Harlow. The rapper and singer's current single "Lovin on Me" has now run the Hot 100 for three weeks, and it remains a very popular smash in America. Helping Grande potentially usurp the hip-hop musician will be strong sales–14 versions of "Yes, And?" are currently charting on iTunes–as well as consistent attention at streaming platforms like Spotify.

With new releases now coming fast and furious during the all-important Q4–the make-or-break quarter for the music industry–we have to make sure that new indie releases don't get lost in the mix. Challenge accepted. 1. Dave Gahan & Soulsavers, Metal Heart Imposte r (Columbia) Recommended If You Live: Songs closer to the heart Depeche Mode's frontman went through some rough times 25 years ago when he kept ODing with heroin and speedballs, culminating with a full cardiac arrest that saw him dead for two minutes before EMTs could get his heart beating again. These days, he's a changed person, much more spiritual, and aware that life is precious. This album (due November 12) is a collection of covers (Neil Young, PJ Harvey, even Charlie Chaplin) carefully chosen for their meanings and effect upon Dave. The first single is a Cat Power song from 1998. [embedded content] 2. Ministry, Disinformation Moral Hygiene (Nuclear Blast) RIYL: Repeated hammer blows to the head Unc...

best van halen songs :: Article Creator All 75 David Lee Roth-Era Van Halen Songs Ranked Worst To Best By the end of the '70s, hard rock seemed destined to go the way of the dodo. Then Van Halen came along and shifted the world on its axis. The band's 1978 self-titled debut was a tour de force of jaw-dropping virtuosity, off-the-wall showmanship and brilliant pop sensibilities. Guitarist Eddie Van Halen revolutionized the medium with his two-handed tapping technique, and he and singer David Lee Roth immediately cemented their place as one of rock's most iconic — and volatile — duos. Over the next six years, Van Halen released five more albums with Roth at the helm before things went south in spectacular fashion. Those first six LPs run the gamut from white-knuckle heavy metal to delectable pop-rock to early-20th-century jazz standards — sometimes within the same song. Roth reunited sporadically with Van Halen over the years, yiel...

100 days to AFCON: How are the favourites shaping up? - ESPN

6:51 AM GMT Ed Dove Special to ESPN Close Ed Dove is a writer and scout who has a deep and enduring passion for African sport, politics and literature. Instagram: @EddyDove22, Facebook: @EddyDoveAfrica With 100 days to go until the Africa Cup of Nations kicks off in Cameroon on January 9, ESPN's Ed Dove runs the rule over the top nine contenders for the continent's grandest prize. Cameroon What's their pedigree? Genuine African giants, Cameroon have won five AFCON's, the Olympic gold in 2000, and have represented the continent at a record seven World Cups. Their run to the quarterfinals in 1990 has still never been surpassed. How did they qualify? Qualified automatically as hosts, but Cameroon nonetheless had to compete in Group F of qualification, where their results -- three wins, two draws, one defeat -- did little for optimism. Recent results: A 2-0 behind-closed-doors victory at home against Malawi was routine, but the 2-1 defeat away in the Cote d'Ivoire la...
