‘MONEY' became the fastest song by a K-pop solo artist to reach 100 million Spotify streams. Previously, the record was held by Rosé’s “On The Ground” at 71 days.

BLACKPINK's Lisa shattered records of K-Pop solo artists on leading music streaming platform Spotify to become the first solo artist to surpass 100 million streams of her song ‘MONEY’ in just 37 days since the song was first revealed on September 10.

‘MONEY' became the fastest song by a K-pop solo artist to reach 100 million Spotify streams. Previously, the record was held by Rosé’s “On The Ground” at 71 days.

Before that, it was Jennie's "Solo," which reached 100 million in 125 days. Currently, all three are the top female K-Pop solo artists on the platform.

Last week in the United Kingdom, Lisa made history when her song 'MONEY' debuted on the most important songs ranking in the country, which remains one of the biggest music markets in the world.

This week on the UK singles chart, Lisa’s 'MONEY' improves its standing by more than 20 spaces, a huge jump for any composition. The tune lifts from No. 81, where it started last time around, to No. 59. With such an impressive surge, the cut has altered the all-time ranking of the most successful tracks by women from the K-pop world, with Lisa blowing past her own recent win.

'MONEY' now stands as the second-highest-charting song by a solo female K-pop musician in UK history. Lisa is originally from Thailand, but career-wise she’s known for her output with the South Korean girl group Blackpink, one of the biggest names in the K-pop industry.
