BLACKPINK’s Jennie continues to soar in her solo career as her debut album Ruby breaks global records. Her standout track, Like Jennie, has officially become the most streamed song by a female artist worldwide in 2025. Combining numbers from Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and more, Like Jennie has surpassed Lady Gaga’s hit Abracadabra to claim the top spot.
Dominating Charts and Hearts
The milestone follows another major achievement: Like Jennie was named the best-selling K-pop song in the U.S. during the first half of 2025, with over 500,000 units sold. This success has cemented Jennie’s place not just in K-pop, but on the global music stage.
‘Ruby’ Named Best K-pop Solo Album
Jennie’s full-length solo debut, Ruby, has received critical acclaim from top publications including Billboard, Rolling Stone, NME, and Complex. Notably, Pitchfork has declared Ruby the best K-pop solo album of all time—a rare recognition that speaks volumes about the album’s cultural and musical impact.
Fans Celebrate Online
Following the news, social media was flooded with love and admiration for Jennie. “Jennie Kim, you will ALWAYS BE FAMOUS,” one fan wrote. Another said, “Jennie just made history! Queen behaviour only.”
Empowerment Through Music
Released on March 7, Like Jennie is the fourth single from Ruby. In an interview with Elle Korea, Jennie shared the deeper meaning behind the song. “In Like Jennie, ‘Jennie’ is just a pronoun,” she explained. “It’s about self-love and empowerment—anyone can shine by being themselves.”
Jennie’s bold message and global success make Like Jennie more than just a song—it’s a cultural anthem.
