Jimin’s “Who” spends a second week at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts, a week after it launched at the surveys’ summits. Jimin became the second member of BTS to have topped the tallies apart from the cornerstone Korean pop group, following Jung Kook. Plus, BTS became the first group with multiple members that have led both rankings.
Also this week, Karol G’s “Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido” and Chappell Roan’s “Good Luck, Babe!” both ascend to the Global 200’s top 10.
The Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts, which began in September 2020, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the United States.
Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts’ calculations.
Jimin’s “Who,” released July 19, crowns the Global 200 for a second week, with 93.4 million streams (up 4%) and 64,000 sold (down 51%) worldwide July 26-Aug. 1.
Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” rises 3-2 for a new Global 200 high; Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” dips 2-3, following three nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 beginning in June; Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” steadies itself at No. 4, after reaching No. 3; and Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” keeps at No. 5, after two nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 starting in May.
Karol G’s “Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido” climbs 12-9 on the Global 200. Released in June, the song, Karol G’s sixth top 10 on the chart, drew 68.8 million streams (up 2%) and sold 2,000 (up 11%) worldwide in the week ending Aug. 1.
Plus, Chappell Roan’s “Good Luck, Babe!” becomes her first Global 200 top 10, lifting 11-10. The stand-alone single, which debuted in April on the U.S.-based Billboard Hot 100 and Global 200, totaled 49.2 million streams and 5,000 sales worldwide in the latest tracking week.
Jimin’s “Who” concurrently leads Global Excl. U.S. for a second week, with 75 million streams (down 1%) and 15,000 sold (down 80%) outside the U.S. July 26-Aug. 1.
Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” rebounds to its No. 2 Global Excl. U.S. high, from No. 3; Carpenter’s “Espresso” descends 2-3, following eight nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 beginning in May; Karol G’s “Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido” jumps 7-4, surpassing its prior No. 5 best; and FloyyMenor and Cris Mj’s “Gata Only” repeats at No. 5, after reaching No. 3.
