Rosé has once again proven her global impact as her hit single “APT.”, a collaboration with Bruno Mars, continues its historic run across major international charts.
On December 25, The Black Label announced that “APT.” has claimed No.1 on Billboard’s 2025 Global 200 year-end chart, while also securing No.9 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking one of the strongest global performances by a K-pop artist this year.
Dominating Global Platforms
Beyond Billboard, “APT.” was selected as Apple Music’s Song of the Year, further cementing its worldwide popularity. The track also performed exceptionally well on TikTok, ranking No.1 in Korea and No.6 globally on the platform’s 2025 Year in Music chart, highlighting its massive cultural reach and viral power.
Released in October last year as the pre-release single from Rosé’s first full-length album rosie, “APT.” quickly became a global phenomenon. The song has now spent 45 consecutive weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, setting a new record for the longest-charting K-pop song in the chart’s history.
The music video has also surpassed 2.2 billion views on YouTube, underscoring its long-lasting popularity across multiple platforms.
Award-Winning Milestones
Rosé’s success with “APT.” extended to major U.S. award shows as well. She became the first K-pop artist to win Song of the Year at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, a milestone achievement for the genre.
In addition, “APT.” earned nominations at the Grammy Awards for Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, marking the first time a K-pop artist has been nominated in two major Grammy main categories.
Continuing a Global Journey
While celebrating the continued success of “APT.”, Rosé remains active with BLACKPINK’s “DEADLINE” world tour, balancing solo achievements with group activities as she continues to expand her global presence.
With record-breaking chart performance, major award recognition, and sustained popularity, “APT.” stands as one of the defining global hits of 2025 reaffirming Rosé’s position as a powerful force on the international music stage.
