The electrifying energy of KATSEYE is sweeping across the global music scene! The sensational global girl group from HYBE-Geffen Records has once again proven their unstoppable stage presence, charting two of their tracks simultaneously on the highly competitive U.S. Billboard Hot 100 for an astonishing three consecutive weeks.
Chart-Topping Performances: “Gabriela” & “Internet Girl”
According to the latest Billboard charts, released on January 28th (local time) and dated January 31st, KATSEYE’s hit track ‘Gabriela‘ soared to #27 on the Hot 100, marking its 27th cumulative week on the chart. It’s truly inspiring to see a song released seven months ago not only maintaining its position but also still captivating audiences in the upper echelons of the chart.
Adding to their impressive run, the recently released track ‘Internet Girl‘ secured the #85 spot on the Hot 100 this week, marking its third consecutive week charting. This is a remarkable feat, especially considering it’s a ‘fan-favorite track’ rather than an officially promoted activity song. ‘Internet Girl‘ previously made its initial powerful debut on the Hot 100 at #29 (January 17th chart) and peaked at #24 on the UK ‘Official Singles Top 100’ (January 9-15th), igniting fervent reactions worldwide.
