"Dirty Work" peaked with 20M playlisting and had its physical sales uncounted for some reason. It's not even a single in the U.S. as it wasn't given an adds date, yet would have charted on the Hot 100 if all metrics were properly counted.

The reason why they even were predicted to chart on Hot 100, was literally because their sales were counted

I know it's hard for you accept, but I'll make sure to post again when "Dirty Work" ends up outstreaming all of SKZ's 2025 title tracks. Already one flop SKZ single down. See you then

I'm bookmarking this post, because when Stray Global drop their first Korean comeback of 2025, you're in for a reality check, bestie Just a reminder: SKZ has already hit 1.7 billion streams on Spotify this year, while aespa sits at 700 million - that's a full 1 billion difference 

 

And let's talk about charting. Despite just having a comeback, aespa isn't even making it onto the Spotify Artist chart. Why? Because they're not pulling enough filtered daily streams. Meanwhile, KATSEYE - who had a comeback on the same day as aespa and have a much smaller discography - have no issue charting. (SKZ has never left this chart and has charted consistently since March 2022 which is more than 3 years )

#5 on the Global 200 and #2 on the Billboard Excluding U.S. 

 

I need foreign gays to understand that the Hot 100 stopped being relevant in the 2000s when it became a radio payola chart and the Billboard 200 is just a game of who can fit the most tracks on an album until they're #1 on the charts. Here in America, people don't even talk about Billboard the way that they used to.

Oh, so suddenly Billboard - the world's biggest and most recognized chart - is "irrelevant" just because your local faves will never appear on it? Let me guess, MelOn and Circle are apparently more important for every global artist now? Be serious. There's a reason why every major artist, including your faves, dreams of charting on the Hot 100.

 

First it was downplaying Spotify, and now Billboard too? This is honestly the biggest cope I've seen in a while.  Cause if aespa actually managed to chart on Hot 100 this week, we would't hear the end of it from MYs

It's shaping up to become their biggest song on global charts with the most longevity

But @Eternium told me that MYs and people in general don't care for Hot 100 since the 2000's? So what's the truth?

Stunning.

 

I don't see why Blanks are downplaying these teasers. It's refreshing to see them in outdoor lighting (even if it's simulated!). The wardrobe isn't giving teen pop anymore either

"usa_aespa" cares about Billboard? Shocking news to me

 

We KTRL MYs don't give a ****

 

I find it curious Jungwon was the one invited, submitted, whatever, for the Grammy thing. I would say both Jay and Heeseung are the ones that stand out more as writers/producers (although Jungwon has some credits too in a couple ENHYPEN songs) I guess they decided to chose him as leader in representation of their group or something, which is quite funny because they choose Yeonjun for TXT, I guess the it boy payola never stops
