Jung Kook & Latto's 'Seven' Maintains No. 1 Position on Billboard Global Charts.

In an extraordinary feat, the hit song "Seven" by Jung Kook, featuring Latto, has secured its fourth consecutive week at the top of both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts. This achievement marks a significant milestone for the artists and the song itself.

"Seven" initially made history three weeks prior by becoming the first song by a member of BTS to claim the No. 1 position on these prestigious charts. Building on that success, the song has now set another remarkable record by being the first track since the inception of Billboard Global Excl. U.S. in September 2020 to maintain four consecutive weeks of surpassing 100 million streams outside of the United States.

Record-Breaking Streaming Numbers and Unprecedented Consistency

The Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts evaluate songs based on their streaming and sales performance across more than 200 territories worldwide. These charts, compiled by Luminate, provide a comprehensive overview of a song's global popularity. The Global 200 takes into account data from all over the world, while the Global Excl. U.S. focuses on territories excluding the United States.

Chart rankings are determined through a weighted formula that considers official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music platforms. Additionally, download sales contribute to the rankings, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the calculations.

Dominating the Charts

"Seven" continues to dominate the charts, securing its No. 1 spot on the Billboard Global 200 with 111.7 million streams (a decrease of 10%) and 4,000 sold (down 68%) worldwide from August 4 to August 10. Notably, this song is only the second to debut atop the Global 200 in 2023 and maintain its No. 1 position for at least its first four weeks, following Miley Cyrus' "Flowers."

The song's success extends to the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart, where it also reigns for the fourth consecutive week with 101.9 million streams (a 10% decrease) and 3,000 sold (down 50%) outside the U.S. during the same period. Just like on the Global 200, "Seven" is only the second song this year to start at No. 1 on the Global Excl. U.S. chart and secure its position for at least four weeks.

Furthermore, "Seven" has set a groundbreaking precedent by achieving four consecutive weeks of 100 million-plus streams outside the U.S. Since its inception, Billboard Global Excl. U.S. had never witnessed such an accomplishment.

Jung Kook and Latto's collaboration has not only produced an exceptional musical success but has also etched their names in the annals of music history with these unprecedented achievements. As fans and the music industry continue to marvel at their accomplishments, "Seven" continues to resonate with audiences around the world.
