#BTS’ Jimin’s single “Like Crazy” has left the Billboard Hot 100s following a recent rule change during tracking week.
#BillboardRacist and #BillboardCorrupt are currently trending due to criticism of chart manipulation.
Park Jimin of BTS created history by becoming the first Korean soloist to peak at number 1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 last week. He peaked the numero uno position with his latest release, Like Crazy, which was released in two versions, including an English version. However, the song was out of the first top 10 list in the second week. This left the ARMY (fans) angry.
Recently, Jimin along with RM attended a dinner celebrating BIGBANG member G-Dragon’s Peaceminusone’s collaboration with Nike via a dinner where he was reunited with Taeyang who he previously worked with for the single ‘VIBE’. Following the event, Taeyang shared a photo of receiving a signed album from Jimin with warm words for the singer. BTS member J-Hope also shared the photo of a similar signed copy with Jimin declaring his love for Jimin. Now, Jin has joined the bunch by asking the younger member for his own album.
BTS ARMY has taken to social media, particularly, Twitter to allege that Billboard has filtered streams for Like Crazy and deleted more than 100 k sales. While the song continues to be in the top 5 on the global list by Billboard, ARMY is upset with the US music charts for allegedly filtering the sales without reasoning.
“ We need an explanation,What rule change it is,why 90% sales were filtered for BTS JIMIN’s songâ€æ” one of the users wrote on Twitter. Another added, “ You know what hurts the most? We didn’t even aim for a #1 debut for “Like Crazy” as we knew it is nearly impossible to top the chart without massive radioplay, with the changed billboard rules targeting BTS. Yet they still feel threatened.”
On April 9, Jin left a comment on Jimin’s post from April 5 when the chart was first announced. In the post, the ‘Set Me Free Pt.2’ star had asked fans to stay careful of the rain and cars, as well as wished them a good day. Jin said, “Hey, Billboard No.1 singer give me an album too”. Jimin, probably flustered and giggling at Jin’s wishes replied with, “You are talking nonsense/ What are you even saying ha ha ha Of course of course”. Their banter still as vivid as ever, fans felt happy looking at the two stars interacting. Meanwhile, Jimin’s Weverse profile image continues to be one with Jin before his enlistment.
