BLACKPINK remains a dominant force on Spotify, with over 347 million streams in 2024, surpassing NEWJEANS’ 346 million streams.
Despite not releasing any new singles or albums since October 2022, BLACKPINK maintains its status as the most streamed girl group on Spotify for the year.
If this momentum continues, they could achieve their sixth consecutive year as the most streamed girl group on the platform.

On another note, BLACKPINK’s smash hit “How You Like That” has soared past 980 million streams on Spotify, edging closer to the remarkable milestone of 1 billion streams.
Once achieved, it will mark the first Korean song by a K-pop group to reach this milestone in the platform’s history. Additionally, BLACKPINK will etch their name in history as the first K-pop female act to join Spotify’s billion stream club.
