Netizens are divided over NewJeans taking 8th place on Billboard Global chart
Daebak, NewJeans ranked 8th on Billboard Global chart
They ranked 8th on Billboard Global 200

They ranked 4th in the world excluding US!!!!

This album sold so well, so I think they’ll get paid right awayㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[+68, -27]
1. [+32, -20] We don’t care about Billboard Global 200. The real chart is Billboard Hot 100 or at least Billboard 200
2. [+26, -4] Even if it’s the global chart, it’s great that they’re in the top 10
3. [+24, -14] Has anyone seen NewJeans bragging that they were #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 a few days ago? It is not #1 on Billboard Hot 100, but #1 on Billboard Vietnam Hot 100 chart. Those people are hilarious

4. [+20, -1] The people who are downvoting this are jealousㅋㅋㅋ
5. [+19, -2] Because the song is good
6. [+8, -0] They probably already got paid
7. [+6, -0] There are a lot of people with inferiority complexㅋㅋㅋ They can’t accept the truth, so they will downvote the postㅋㅋ
8. [+2, -0] NewJeans is really scary
9. [+0, -0] I think NewJeans will be at the one top of the 4th generation

knetz can’t accept that a rookie group surpassed their faves LMAOO
don’t give them the ATTENTION ~~~
This is getting sus
they were sus from debut but be quiet otherwise ppl will eat us alive.
Common speak into the mic – you think their music isn’t popular because it’s good music, but instead because… what? Let your conspiracy theories to dismiss their success fly.
Ive sales are sus
Of course they will top Billboard Vietnam Hot 100 chart, that’s a chart that easy to top for kpop idols. Not to mention NJ has a Vietnamese member.
Only youtube views gonna hinder newjeans from getting higher charting as it seem ador tend to do long video or multiple versions of mv that gonna reduce people to rewatch the mv. Would be interesting to see what ador/hybe gonna do after this. Would they follow everyone making high budget 1 version that like 3min video?
But multiple videos do count for the same 1 song. Audios, dance performance videos, lyrics, they all count for BB charts. They are actually doing great in promotions
But usually its not enough especially for longetivity. Reason why even bp solo got no1 on global 200 because they have high mv views despite ditto has better spotify streams. Its one of reason twice can chart in hot100 as well. Youtube views really play huge part when its come to kpop act charting on billboard. Its the easiest way to gain streams. Unless newjeans got totally blow up like western artists that solely rely on spotify n apple music plus radioplays, only then they not need youtube mv views.
they don’t need yt views when they’re spotify playlisted (aka rigged) on the main rigging page:

They prob mean yt view records bc blinks are feeling threatened and dragging a bunch of feen girls bc their views are not as high
youtube mv views aren’t that important anymore like it was in the past. new jeans have the longevity and consistency because their music is loved by casuals. even though their mv views aren’t high, their audio views can make up to that and youtube chart combines all the streams so they still have high youtube streams that count to other charts like PAK or Billboard.
OP wasn’t even being shady, just stated facts. So while the Hot100 is the main chart, why are people acting like Newjeans fans can’t celebrate this fact?
nj is the only grp other than bp who spotify payolas. Saw them on the front page playlist a few days ago (main payola rigged playlist, the sub genre playlists are 2nd tier rigged playlists). Checked today & they’re still rigging today. And roughly in the same playlist spot.
so yea, it doesn’t mean much other than they’re no. 1 or 2 in kpop for rigging.

So let me get this straight, do you officially see all artists who use Spotify Playlisting as Rigged? Which means all paid listing/sponsorship/etc is rigged, which happens on: Spotify, Apple Music, YT, TikTok
So basically, Taylor, Billie, Ariana, Doja, Bad Bunny, the weekend, Drake, etc etc are all rigging all the time because they 100% percent use these outlets to get more eyes on their music.
So are only artists that never sponsor their things not ‘rigged’? Or are you just a weirdo trying to find any sad reason you can to justify dismissing NJs impact?
I guess instead of the term rigging, maybe it’s more of a privilege. Either their company or the artists have enough money and connections to get on those major playlists or run ad campaigns.
That’s not to say these artists don’t put out good music, but they are not on a level playing field compared to smaller companies and lesser known artists, but I think that’s a tale as old as time, lol
They’re right~ you have to get the hot 100
