BLACKPINK’s Jennie is going to make a new record on Spotify. Her solo track "like JENNIE" will likely become the quickest solo song by a K-pop female solo artist to break 200 million streams. As of the latest statistics, the song has achieved more than 199.9 million streams in 51 days and is soon to reach the 200 million mark. This feat demonstrates Jennie's solid standing as a solo artist in the international music industry.

Jennie's success with "like JENNIE" is not the first of her big achievements. In 2020, her solo debut song "SOLO" was the first Korean female soloist song to exceed 200 million Spotify streams. With "like JENNIE," she is continuing on that path and is still leading the pack as a K-pop solo artist.

The performance of the song has been assisted by performances such as her Coachella performance and solid fan support. Social media viral trends also contributed significantly to growing daily streams, propelling the track to #5 on the Global Spotify chart.


What made BLACKPINK’s Jennie's “like JENNIE” so successful?

There were a number of reasons behind the quick success of "like JENNIE." One reason is that BLACKPINK’s Jennie has a very large fan base all over the world. Her fans listen to her songs immediately after they are out. They also share her songs extensively on platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. This quick sharing allowed "like JENNIE" to grow rapidly in the initial weeks.

Second, Jennie's live concerts increased the visibility of the song. Her Coachella performance, which is one of the largest music festivals, exposed the song to more people. Clips of her performance became viral, and this drove new listeners to Spotify.

Third, the timing of its release was a factor. Jennie's team dropped the song when competition on the charts was minimal. This enabled "like JENNIE" to rise quicker without being hindered by other big releases.
