The collaboration titled "APT" by BLACKPINK's Rosé and Bruno Mars is poised to challenge Mariah Carey's longstanding dominance. The track has secured the top position on the Billboard Global Excl US chart for an impressive 14 weeks, equaling the chart legacy of Carey's iconic holiday song, "All I Want for Christmas Is You."

While Mariah's festive anthem took over four years to achieve the record for the longest reign on this specific chart, the partnership between Rosé and Bruno Mars has accomplished this feat in under a year. Released just over three months ago as the lead single from Rosé's debut solo studio album, "APT" is on track to potentially surpass the remarkable tenure established by Mariah Carey's Christmas classic on the Billboard Global Excl US chart.

The album by the New Zealand-Korean artist is charting an unprecedented trajectory across various music platforms. Rosé’s solo project, titled “Rosie,” has maintained its remarkable presence on the Billboard 200 for eight consecutive weeks, currently positioned at #26. This achievement marks it as the first album by a female K-pop soloist to sustain such a lengthy charting history, according to Soompi.

In the previous week, the BLACKPINK star made history as the first female K-pop artist to reach the top three of Billboard’s Hot 100. This week, her track “APT” has retained the No. 3 spot, marking its 15th consecutive week on the chart.

On the Billboard Global 200, the infectious song has surged back to the top, reclaiming the No. 1 position for its 12th non-consecutive week, solidifying its status as the K-pop track with the most weeks at No. 1. Additionally, Rosé’s lead single has returned to the top of Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart in its 15th week, remaining the first song by a K-pop artist to achieve this milestone.
