YG’s new girl group Baby Monsters’ debut song “BATTER UP” proves their “monster rookie” potential with significant results on various global charts.
According to YG Entertainment on November 27, Baby Monsters’ “BATTER UP” music video surpassed 12 million views in just half a day after its release, and quickly took the top spot on YouTube’s trending videos.
In particular, the number of views is continuing to rise sharply as reaction videos with favorable reviews in various languages are pouring in on YouTube. The remarkable achievements shown within half a day of their debut are expected to bring change and wind to the K-pop market as Baby Monsters become a new game changer.
The most notable thing is that it went straight to number one on the QQ Music MV chart, China’s largest music site. In addition, “BATTER UP” topped the iTunes Song Chart in a total of 16 countries, placing it in the top ranks of the Worldwide Song Chart. While it is showing a balanced popularity distribution in countries around the world, it is also making a strong showing in the mainstream pop market, as it is the first debut song released this year to land on the US iTunes Top 50 and also succeeds in entering the UK chart.
