Blackpink's Rosé and Bruno Mars have hit a major milestone with their collaboration “Apartment,” which debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100. This achievement marks the highest rank by any K-pop female solo artist on the Hot 100 chart, surpassing Blackpink’s previous peak with “Ice Cream” (with Selena Gomez) at No. 13 in 2020.

Billboard announced this news on October 29, noting that Apartment made its debut alongside tracks from popular artists like Billie Eilish’s Birds of a Feather (No. 3) and Sabrina Carpenter’s Espresso (No. 5), both of which also reached top-tier positions. Not only did the track make an impact in the U.S., but it also ranked at No. 4 on the UK’s Official Singles Chart, securing Rosé’s spot in the international pop scene.
