Jennie’s ‘Dracula’ Hits No. 3 On Billboard Hot 100, Tying Rosé’s Record

BLACKPINK’s Jennie has achieved a major milestone on the US music charts as her collaboration with Australian psychedelic rock band Tame Impala, ‘Dracula’, has climbed to No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100. The ranking puts her on par with fellow BLACKPINK member Rosé, whose global hit ‘APT.’ also peaked at No. 3. The achievement makes Jennie one of the highest-charting K-pop female solo artists in the history of the US singles chart.

Jennie’s ‘Dracula’ climbs to No. 3 on Billboard Hot 100

‘Dracula’ was first released in September last year and later featured on Tame Impala’s fifth studio album, ‘Deadbeat’, which arrived in October. Despite the band's strong musical reputation, its distinctive psychedelic sound had not traditionally translated into major Billboard chart success.

The track first entered the Billboard Hot 100 on October 11 last year. However, its momentum received a significant boost on February 6, when a remix featuring Jennie on vocals was released. The collaboration introduced the song to a wider audience and helped it gain traction across streaming platforms.

A viral dance challenge on TikTok and other social media platforms also contributed to its popularity. International stars including Dua Lipa, Gracie Abrams, Demi Lovato and Meghan Trainor participated in the trend, alongside several K-pop idols.

Halloween streams help ‘Dracula’ set a Billboard record

The song also performed strongly on Billboard's radio charts, including Pop Airplay, Adult Pop Airplay and Radio Songs. These rankings track radio play and listenership across the United States, indicating that its popularity has extended beyond streaming platforms.

Halloween provided another boost. According to music data analytics company Luminate, ‘Dracula’ recorded 2.8 million official on-demand streams in the US on October 31. This marked a 148% increase from the previous Saturday, October 24, when it registered 1.1 million streams. The figure was also 56% higher than its Halloween total last year, when it recorded 1.8 million streams.

After spending 58 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, ‘Dracula’ has now reached the Top 3, setting a new chart record. It is the longest-running song in the chart's history to enter the Top 3. The previous record belonged to Glass Animals’ ‘Heat Waves’, which took 51 weeks to reach the same position.

The achievement adds another significant moment to Jennie’s solo career and places her alongside Rosé in the record books for K-pop female artists on the Billboard Hot 100.
