The soundtrack for "KPop Demon Hunters" has made history by placing four songs in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time, a feat no other film or series soundtrack has achieved

"Golden" leads the way, holding the number one spot for a second week after recently overtaking Alex Warren's "Ordinary." "Your Idol" remains steady at number four, while "Soda Pop" rose five positions to number five. The newest entry, "How It's Done," climbed four spots to number ten, securing this unprecedented accomplishment. Such simultaneous success is exceptionally rare in the music world. While other soundtracks have produced four top 10 hits, none have had all four songs in the top tier concurrently. The last comparable achievement was "Waiting to Exhale" thirty years ago, though its hits didn't all peak at once. Billboard notes that the last soundtrack with three songs in the top five simultaneously was "Saturday Night Fever" in 1978. It's worth reflecting on how streaming and audience engagement have reshaped what defines a hit in today's music landscape. The way fans interact with music continues to evolve, influencing chart performance in ways that weren't possible decades ago. The balance between digital consumption and traditional radio play remains a key factor in sustaining a song's popularity over time. "Golden" has been widely considered a fan favorite for more than just the past two weeks, though its initial climb was slowed by limited radio support despite massive streaming numbers. Recently, radio airplay has grown significantly, with a 39% increase in audience impressions this week. Still, there's a noticeable gap between its streaming dominance and radio presence; it leads the streaming chart for a fifth week but only ranks 42nd in radio play. The recent sing-along screenings for "KPop Demon Hunters," which helped the Netflix film top the box office, could give "Golden" an additional boost in the coming week. On Spotify, the soundtrack currently occupies the top seven spots on the U.S. daily chart, demonstrating its widespread appeal. Elsewhere in the top 10, Alex Warren's "Ordinary" holds at number two, supported by strong radio play. Morgan Wallen's "What I Want" remains at number three, while Ravyn Lenae's "Love Me Not" drops to number six. Teddy Swims' "Lose Control" stays at number seven, and Justin Bieber's "Daisies" and Wallen's "Just in Case" round out the top 10 at eight and nine. On the Billboard 200 albums chart, Morgan Wallen's "I'm the Problem" claims the top spot for a 12th non-consecutive week, with 121,000 equivalent units. The "KPop Demon Hunters" soundtrack holds at number two with 108,000 units. Conan Gray's "Wishbone" debuts at number three, marking his highest chart position to date. Two 2024 albums also saw notable gains: Billie Eilish's "Hit Me Hard and Soft" reentered the top 10 at number six due to a special vinyl release, and Taylor Swift's "The Tortured Poets Department" rose eight spots to number ten, likely driven by anticipation for her upcoming album.
