Netflix's 'KPop Demon Hunters' Breaks Records With Five Simultaneous Top 10 Entries, Competing With Swift and Styles

A groundbreaking moment in music streaming: the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack has achieved what no other movie soundtrack has managed before, capturing five simultaneous spots in the Billboard Global 200’s top 10. This unprecedented feat places the animated film’s music alongside the most dominant album releases from global superstars, rewriting chart history.

A Rare Achievement in Chart History

Only eleven albums worldwide have ever accomplished this milestone — placing at least five tracks in the Billboard Global 200’s top 10 at any point in their chart run. What makes KPop Demon Hunters particularly remarkable is its distinction as the inaugural soundtrack to reach this exclusive status. The other ten projects to achieve this feat are all traditional studio albums from established industry powerhouses.

Global Superstars Who’ve Done It Before

Taylor Swift’s Dominance: Swift has become the first artist to achieve this milestone multiple times, doing so across three separate albums. Midnights (2022) was followed by 1989 (Taylor’s Version) in 2023 and The Tortured Poets Department in 2024, cementing her position as a chart force.

Drake’s Triple Achievement: The Canadian artist mirrors Swift’s success, with three albums each securing at least five top 10 entries: Certified Lover Boy, Her Loss (with 21 Savage), and For All the Dogs.

Harry Styles, Bad Bunny, and Kendrick Lamar: Harry Styles’s Harry’s House claimed the distinction, while Bad Bunny achieved it twice with Un Verano Sin Ti and Debí Tirar Más Fotos. Kendrick Lamar’s GNX rounds out this elite group, with both artists currently holding only one album each at this level.

Current Chart Momentum

The five tracks from KPop Demon Hunters show remarkable stability on the global chart. “Golden” maintains its position at the summit, while “Soda Pop,” “Your Idol,” and “How It’s Done” hold steady at positions 3, 4, and 5 respectively. The game-changer this week is “What It Sounds Like,” which climbs from No. 11 to No. 10 in its ninth week, completing the soundtrack’s historic five-track top 10 lineup.

This achievement underscores the cultural impact of streaming-era soundtracks and their ability to compete with traditional album releases in the global music landscape.
