BTS tops record 900m streams in Japan with ‘Dynamite’

BTS hit the 900 million streams mark for the first time for an international artist in Japan with “Dynamite,” said label Big Hit Music on Wednesday, citing Oricon’s streaming data. The 2020 megahit is the ninth song to achieve the feat in Oricon’s chart history, and BTS is the sixth artist overall to do so. The disco pop tune released during the COVID-19 pandemic was the first English-language song from the group and made a hotshot debut on Billboard’s Hot 100, a first ever for a K-pop artist. T
