Lisa and Maroon 5's 'Priceless' hits 11 weeks on the Pop Airplay chart, tying Jennie's 'Like Jennie' ... More as the fifth-longest charting female K-pop soloist hit.

When Lisa teamed up with Maroon 5 for the band's single "Priceless," both acts surely knew they were headed for a hit on the Billboard charts. The Blackpink singer is one of the most famous women in the music industry, and her popularity alone would likely have been enough to turn the collaboration into a major win. Anticipation for Maroon 5's new chapter was also high, and radio programmers and DJs throughout the United States depend on the Grammy-winning act to produce the kind of smashes that people love to hear over and over, and it's common for the group's latest release to be put into heavy rotation.
Months after "Priceless" arrived, the track is still present on a number of Billboard's airplay charts. As it holds on once more on the most competitive pop tally, Lisa matches one of her bandmates for a spot in the history books.
Lisa Matches Her Blackpink Bandmate Jennie
"Priceless" has now lived on the Pop Airplay chart for 11 weeks. As it reaches that landmark figure, Lisa's collaboration with Maroon 5 ties as the fifth-longest-running hit by a female K-pop solo musician in the history of the list.
Lisa's poppy cut is now on the same level as "Like Jennie" by, appropriately, Jennie, who is also a member of Blackpink.
'Priceless' Will Likely Live on for Weeks
While "Like Jennie" fell off the Pop Airplay ranking after 11 weeks, the same fate doesn't seem likely for "Priceless." Lisa and Maroon 5 are steady at No. 19 on the 40-spot roster at the moment, so even if the tune begins to drop, it will likely hold on for at least another frame or two…or perhaps many more.
Rosé, Jennie and Lisa
The longest run by any female K-pop soloist on the Pop Airplay chart is held by Rosé, yet another Blackpink superstar. Her team-up with Bruno Mars, 'Apt.,' lived on the list for 28 frames – almost 10 weeks longer than any other track that fits this description.
In between that hit and both "Priceless" and "Like Jennie" come "Moonlit Floor (Kiss Me)" by Lisa (19 weeks), "One of the Girls" by The Weeknd, Jennie, and Lily-Rose Depp (15 weeks), and "Toxic Till the End," another tune from Rosé's debut solo album Rosie, which managed 12 weeks on the roster.
Lisa will likely pass Jennie's semi-self-titled cut and tie Rosé's "Toxic Till the End" in short order, and she could advance beyond that level in a week or so.
