Rosé Matches Her Blackpink Bandmate And Jung Kook With Her New Hit
Rosé ties BTS, Lisa and Jung Kook for the most K-pop hits on Adult Pop Airplay chart as 'On My Mind' ... More debuts, while Lisa's 'Priceless' reaches a new peak. PARIS, FRANCE - JUNE 27: Rosé attends ANDAM Fashion Awards - Prize Winners Cocktail as part of Paris Fashion Week at Jardin du Palais Royal on June 27, 2024 in Paris, France. (Photo by Pascal) Two of the four members of Blackpink are having phenomenal weeks on Billboard's Adult Pop Airplay chart, just as the girl group reforms to release a new single titled "Jump." Both Rosé and Lisa make history with tracks that find space on the radio roster, though they do so in different ways. While Lisa advances again and hits an impressive new peak position, Rosé scores a new win thanks to an exciting collaboration, one that helps her tie with some of the biggest names in K-pop history. Rosé Joins Alex Warren on "On My Mind" Rosé recently teamed up with newcomer Alex Warren for his single "On My Mind," which is set to be featured on his upcoming debut album, You'll Be Alright, Kid. That project is scheduled to drop on July 18, and Warren is hoping that a feature from Rosé will help "On My Mind" become a major hit, just as "Ordinary" — the project's breakout tune — has already proved to be on the Billboard rankings. "On My Mind" opens at No. 29 on this week's Adult Pop Airplay chart. A Historic Third Win for Rosé With "On My Mind," Rosé earns her third solo win on the Adult Pop Airplay list. As she earns one more hit, the Blackpink singer advances on the all-time ranking of the most successful K-pop acts in the history of the tally. She is now matched with BTS, that band's Jung Kook and her own bandmate Lisa for the most placements among K-pop artists on the Adult Pop Airplay roster. Rosé's History on the Adult Pop Airplay Chart Rosé first arrived on the tally under her own name in November 2024, joined by Bruno Mars on "Apt." The two would go on to peak in the runner-up spot, scoring the highest-charting tune of all time by any K-pop star on the Adult Pop Airplay ranking and missing out on the summit by just one space. In March of this year, "Toxic Till the End," another single pushed from her solo album Rosie, peaked at No. 38 on the 40-position roster. Blackpink's Singers Join the top K-Pop Stars BTS earned all three of its Adult Pop Airplay chart hits in just over a year. The group arrived for the first time with "Dynamite" in September 2020, returned with "Butter" in May 2021, and by October of that year, "My Universe," a collaboration with Coldplay, debuted on the list. Jung Kook, one of the seven members of BTS, achieved a similar feat as "Left and Right" with Charlie Puth, "Seven" with Latto, and "Too Much" with The Kid LAROI and Central Cee all landed on the ranking in less than a year and a half. All three of Lisa's tracks to appear on the Adult Pop Airplay chart — "Moonlit Floor," "Born Again" with Doja Cat and Raye, and now "Priceless" alongside Maroon 5 — have debuted in the first half of 2025.

Lisa Beats BTS's Career High As Her New Collaboration Climbs Again
Lisa and Maroon 5's 'Priceless' rises to No. 7 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart, passing BTS's 'My ... More Universe' and setting a new high for the singer. LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - NOVEMBER 23: Lisa of K-Pop group Blackpink attends the F1 Grand Prix of Las Vegas at Las Vegas Strip Circuit on November 23, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo by) Blackpink and BTS both emerged as exporters of K-pop to the rest of the world more than half a decade ago, and the two beloved groups made history when they began reaching the Billboard charts in the U.S. In the years since, not only have the two bands racked up multiple bestselling albums and numerous hit songs, but the members that make up those acts have also enjoyed careers as soloists. One of the most commercially successful of the four Blackpink singers, Lisa, advances again on one of Billboard's pop radio tallies this time around. As she does, she breaks a tie with BTS that was set only a few days ago. Lisa Reaches a New Peak on the Adult Pop Airplay Chart Lisa climbs one space on the Adult Pop Airplay chart this week as 'Priceless,' her collaboration with Maroon 5, moves from No. 8 to No. 7. The tune is one of only five that credit any K-pop star — a musician largely associated with the genre, regardless of where they're originally from — to break into the highest tier. It now stands as the second-highest rising hit by any artist from that part of the world on the Adult Pop Airplay tally. Lisa Bests BTS's Chart Record Last week, 'Priceless' was matched with 'My Universe,' a collaboration between Coldplay and BTS. That track debuted on the Adult Pop Airplay chart in October 2021, and in the 20 frames it spent on the roster, it climbed as high as No. 8. Now, it's been pushed to third place, just one rung behind 'Priceless.' Lisa Trails Her Blackpink Bandmate Rosé Now that Lisa has beaten the highest slot that BTS ever reached, the two highest-rising hits of all time by K-pop acts on the Adult Pop Airplay ranking are by Blackpink members. Rosé's 'Apt.,' which benefited from a feature by Bruno Mars, missed out on becoming the first No. 1 by any K-pop musician by just one space, as it peaked at No. 2. 'Priceless' Hits New Highs on Several Tallies 'Priceless' reaches a new peak on both the Adult Pop Airplay and Radio Songs charts this week. On the latter list — which isn't specific to any one format — Lisa and Maroon 5 lift four spaces to No. 43. The same track holds at its No. 24 high point on the Adult Contemporary ranking and climbs again to No. 19 on the Pop Airplay tally after once peaking at No. 18.

Lady Gaga Manages A Rare Radio Feat Thanks To Two Hugely Popular Singles
Lady Gaga lands at Nos. 1 and 10 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart with 'Die With a Smile' and ... More 'Abracadabra,' as she earns her lucky thirteenth top 10 on the tally. RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - MAY 03: (Exclusive Coverage) Lady Gaga poses backstage during Lady Gaga MAYHEM On The Beach: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil at Copacabana beach on May 03, 2025 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. (Photo by Kevin Mazur/Kevin Mazur/WireImage for Live Nation) Lady Gaga is one of the defining figures at American pop radio and has held that status for well over a decade. With dozens of memorable singles under her belt, a look at her most successful tracks shows that she's been rather daring in her sonic choices. At the moment, the Emmy, Grammy and Oscar winner's current radio hits couldn't sound less like one another – another sign of that willingness to experiment. And yet, not only do the two tracks fit together on the same album, they also help her accomplish a somewhat uncommon feat on one specific tally. This week, Lady Gaga bookends the top 10 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart. She appears at Nos. 1 and 10 with two different tracks, both lifted from her latest album Mayhem. Interestingly, Gaga didn't occupy either of those positions just a few days ago. She only manages this showing thanks to the coordinated and precise movements of a pair of popular cuts. Perhaps most excitingly, Gaga earns a new top 10 hit on the Adult Pop Airplay ranking this frame. "Abracadabra," the latest single from Mayhem, steps up one spot from No. 11 to No. 10, reaching a new peak in the process. It does so in its fifteenth week on the list, which ranks the most successful tunes across U.S. radio stations that focus on a version of pop commonly referred to as adult pop, as it appeals to an older crowd. "Abracadabra" becomes her lucky thirteenth top 10 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart as it pushes forward. As "Abracadabra" breaks into the top 10 for the first time, Gaga also surges back to No. 1 — and she's not alone. "Die With a Smile," her collaboration with Bruno Mars, climbs one rung and reclaims the top spot. It replaces "Messy" by rising talent Lola Young, which slides to second place. Gaga and Mars have now led the Adult Pop Airplay chart for 10 nonconsecutive weeks with "Die With a Smile." That stretch represents exactly one-quarter of the 40 frames the track has spent somewhere on the tally. With its latest ascent, it becomes the first 10-week ruler for both musicians.

Blackpink's Lisa Charts The Biggest Hit Of Her Solo Career
Lisa and Maroon 5's 'Priceless' debuts at No. 17 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart, becoming Lisa's ... More highest entry and the biggest new arrival of the week.

(Photo by Chanakarn Laosarakham / AFP) (Photo by CHANAKARN LAOSARAKHAM/AFP via Getty Images) Lisa is quickly becoming a familiar face on the Adult Pop Airplay chart, the Billboard ranking that highlights tracks promoted to more radio stations in the U.S. that play an adult-oriented style of pop music. The Blackpink singer has been racking up wins throughout 2025, and now she lands another. While most of her previous successes have stalled in the lower reaches of the list, Lisa's new single 'Priceless,' a collaboration with Maroon 5, doesn't just mark a new win — it immediately outpaces all of her past successes. 'Priceless' launches at No. 17 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart this frame. It is far and away as the highest debut of the week and is one of only three tracks that appear on the tally for the first time. Lisa and Maroon 5 beat out 'Nice to Meet You' by Myles Smith (No. 33) and 'I Drove All Night' by Wyn Starks (No. 38). This new collaboration could just be getting started, and the strong debut bodes well for both acts moving forward. Upon its arrival, 'Priceless' immediately becomes Lisa's biggest hit to date on the Adult Pop Airplay chart. It halves the top placement of her previous singles that have landed on the tally. 'Moonlit Floor' and 'Born Again,' which also credits both Doja Cat and Raye, both stalled at No. 38 on the 40-position radio roster. 'Moonlit Floor' spent six frames on the list, while 'Born Again' managed only three. It's impressive that 'Priceless' is able to pass the two tracks the moment it debuts. 'Priceless' also brings Lisa back to the more competitive Pop Airplay chart, where it opens at No. 26. She has now placed five tracks on that tally, and the Maroon 5 collaboration lands squarely in the middle of her catalog — behind 'Moonlit Floor' (No. 21) and 'Born Again' (No. 25), but ahead of her solo efforts 'Money' (No. 35) and 'Rockstar' (No. 37). Lisa's rapid success and her current big win on the Adult Pop Airplay chart may be due to a combination of factors. Her star power has been growing steadily, fueled by the ongoing promotion of her solo album Alter Ego, which spawned singles like 'Moonlit Floor,' 'Born Again,' and several other well-received cuts. Teaming up with Maroon 5 also boosted her chances of scoring a smash on this list. The group is one of the most successful when it comes to pop radio — especially formats aimed at older audiences. Whenever the band releases something new, programmers and DJs are quick to put it into heavy rotation, which clearly worked in the Blackpink superstar's favor this time around.

Chappell Roan Charts Her First No. 1 With An Unexpected Hit
Chappell Roan is actively promoting two singles at the moment, but only one has become a major radio hit in her home country. "The Giver" started strong on a number of Billboard rankings, but it's now on the decline. After just a few weeks of being pushed to pop radio, it looks like it may soon disappear. Meanwhile, "Pink Pony Club" — featured on her debut album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess — is still gaining momentum. The years-old tune has helped Roan reach a never-before-seen high on one radio tally, as it's become a surprise airplay hit. "Pink Pony Club" gallops from No. 3 to No. 1 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart. The track earns Roan her first leader on Billboard's ranking of the compositions that rack up the largest total number of audience impressions across U.S. radio stations that play a more mature side of pop. Throughout her career, Roan has sent 34 songs to the Adult Pop Airplay chart. Before "Pink Pony Club" arrived, only one of them, "Good Luck, Babe!," had cracked the top 10. That track stalled at No. 9 in September 2024. Her other hits, "Hot To Go!" (No. 11) and "The Giver" (No. 32), never quite made it to that uppermost tier. "Pink Pony Club" currently appears on all three of Billboard's pop radio charts. It holds at No. 2 on the general Pop Airplay list, after previously dominating. At the same time, it steps up one spot on the Adult Contemporary roster, hitting a new peak of No. 17 in the process. While "The Giver" was released earlier in 2025, "Pink Pony Club" originally dropped half a decade ago. The tune was shared by Roan before she had a major fanbase or had scored a breakout hit. Although it was included on The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, "Pink Pony Club" never earned true single status until Roan won the Grammy for Best New Artist. At the ceremony, she performed the cut, turning it into an overnight viral sensation. True commercial success quickly followed. After a huge uptick in sales and streams, the track was promoted to radio, where it has found its footing and turned out to be one of the pop superstar's most successful releases.
