Chart Check [Hot 100]: Jimin’s ‘Like Crazy’ Makes Historic Fall Out of Top 50 After #1 Debut Two Weeks Ago

Published: Thursday 20th Apr 2023 by Rashad

BTS star Jimin made history when his solo single, ‘Like Crazy,’ premiered atop the Billboard Hot 100 with the year’s biggest first-week sales two weeks ago.

The 27-year-old barely had time to celebrate being the first unaccompanied South Korean act to top the tally before reports began surfacing the tune’s second charting week would suffer a drastic reduction in qualified sales.

Causing quite the commotion among BTS fans once the news was confirmed last week, ‘Crazy’ made history again – that time for dropping a whopping 44 spots to #45.  Besting the all-time record for largest fall among non-holiday songs (previously held by Taylor Swift’s 2020 hit ‘Willow’ which dropped from 1-38 in one week), ‘ Crazy’ uniquely became the first song to slip from the top spot to outside the top 40 in just 7 days.

Found at #52 this week, the song’s downward trajectory continues.  See the numbers attached to the descent.

  • Sales ≈ 8,000 digital downloads sold
  • Streams ≈ 8.1 million U.S.-based streams
  • Radio airplay ≈ 200,000 audience impressions

While the sales figure attached to ‘Crazy’s commercial performance this week was enough to keep it at #2 on the Digital Sales chart, its modest showing on streaming and radio platforms weren’t enough to help keep it in the Hot 100’s top 50.

    Embarrassing

      Why is it embarrassing when he’s the only korean artist who made it to top 100? If he didn’t go up to top 1 and stayed in hot 100 regardless of its no.100 people will still celebrate because it’s not easy to make it on the chart. Plus it only fell due to change of rules. It still the no 2 best selling album. People just like to kick someone whenever they get a chance.

      At least he experienced going up rather than not even making it at all and still in the chart after it’s 3rd week and still the no 2 selling song in US. When no one can even make it to the chart. If anyone will make it its no other than another BTS member.

  9. rilz April 22, 2023

    So many antis here when your fave didn’t even make it to top.100. At least he’s still in the chart after it’s 3rd week and still on top 2 best selling song in the US. Not his fault if Billboard cares more about payola. You take out Payola and you’ll see him ranking no1 on that chart.

    >>>>>>>. PLZ READ BELIOW > IT’s A SAD MUSIC INDUSTRY EY OPENER >Jimin’s #1 “Like Crazy”-biggest drop? See why & it’s a music industry eye opener! > FIRST- it’s INTERESTING how the EAST enjoys WESTERN SONGS with radio plays /embraces/has HITS in countries where English is NOT their native language BUT tunnel-visioned/skeptical/”entitled Amer.=the center of the globe” WEST quickly question/evade radioplay amazing songs fromthe EAST, even if they’re in English! > Ofcourse there’s illegal Radio PAYOLA by big labels, to repeat play their songs)!! >YOUTUBE: Boracity Magazine chl’s “Why The Music Industry Is Terrified Of BTS” + “BTS vs Spotify” + “BTS vs Billboard-Explained”..II’s also why The Weekend was HUGE, but was shorted in radio play + awards ( a GRAMMY Exec. said GRAMMYS pushed back on featuring The Weekend, BTS, etc, said at the very end of GRAM- MY RULES, “barely noticeable”, it says in conclusion: “It’s up to the GRAMMYS to decide the WINNERS”!??!!… BILLBOARD is AWARE that BTS does NOT do PAYOLA or BUNDLING to UP Sales, SO fana are aware BTS gets little AIRPLAY (YET radio stations SCRAMBLE to get BTS Radio Interviews for ratings!?! AND many stations complain of TOO MANY REQUESTS for BTS Songs from hopeful fans who want to hear them on the radio, their last option!?! SO, BILLBOARD changes the RULES to give MORE POINTS for RADIOPLAY?!? SO Fans continue +UP the ante to BUY DIG. + PHYSICAL copies to highlight the boyz hardwork/deep writing +great music!!! … > SO: BILLBOARD changes the RULES again to MINIMIZE Sales POINTS to: 5. !?!? > AND…In an article they ALL but VILIFFIED BTS for their use of REMIXES, ALTHO they haven’t done many + OTHER Artists have done SOO MANY??!!….UNREAL!!!!!!! >> BILLBOARD & SPOTIFY ARE OWNED BY THE SAME CO (See “BTS vs SPOTIFY”!?! >>AGAIN, WATCH THOSE VIDS ABOVE- IT’S SHAMEFUL!!!…..Need NO Response👌
