BLACKPINK’s Rosé met critical acclaim and commercial success in the United States after collaborating with Bruno Mars. The two artists managed to create one of the biggest hits of 2024 and early 2025, and numbers show!

On January 9, The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) was glad to announce that “APT” was certified platinum after accumulating 1 million units in sales and streams. “APT” ultimately marked a bold collaboration between Rosé and Mars which received widespread recognition for its catchy tune.

BLACKPINK’s Rosé became the first female Kpop artist to enter the top 5 of the Billboard Hot 100. In addition, she also became the fastest Kpop act to reach platinum status surpassing PSY’s “Gangnam Style.” What an incredible feat!
