That tally, published each week by Billboard, ranks the 100 most popular songs in the United States. Sales, streams and radio airplay factor into where a title lands, and this time around, one solo musician typically associated with K-pop earns her first top 10 win.
Jennie breaks into the region, flying to No. 10 with "Dracula." That song was released months ago by alternative pop project Tame Impala, fronted by superstar musician Kevin Parker, and it became a global sensation after the Blackpink singer lent her vocals and fame to the composition.
