Jennie Ruby Jane is officially in a league of her own. The “Mantra” singer has reached a milestone that seemed impossible just a year ago. As of today, she is the first K-pop soloist to spend 300 consecutive days as the #1 K-pop act on Spotify. This isn’t just a win for Jennie; it’s a total shift for soloists in the industry.
Staying at the top for 300 days is no fluke. It shows she has serious “global legs.” Most artists see a huge spike during release week and then a slow dip. But Jennie has stayed relevant long after the initial Ruby hype. Right now, she leads the field with 42.1 million monthly listeners. That figure continues to dwarf almost everyone else in the game.
Breaking the Ceiling: Jennie vs. Jungkook
By hitting this mark, Jennie has moved past the previous record held by BTS’s Jungkook. He dominated the top spot for 113 days across 2023 and 2024. Jennie didn’t just break that record—she nearly tripled it.
What’s wild is that her daily streams are currently higher than many full groups. This includes NewJeans and even her own group, BLACKPINK, while they are on hiatus. Insiders say this is proof that Jennie has successfully transitioned from a “K-pop idol” to a permanent global pop fixture.
The “Ruby” Era: A Streaming Powerhouse
The engine behind this historic run is her debut solo studio album, “Ruby.” The project was a monster from day one. It earned over 29.6 million streams in its first 24 hours. The title track, “like JENNIE,” became an instant staple, peaking at #7 on the Global Spotify Chart.
But the real story is the album’s consistency. All ten tracks—including “Handlebars” and “ExtraL”—charted globally on release day. This “all-kill” created a high baseline of listeners that has kept her at #1 for nearly a year.
The Coachella Bump
If the album was the foundation, Coachella 2025 was the fuel. Her headlining set acted as a massive global marketing event. After the show, “like JENNIE” saw a huge surge, gaining over 500,000 daily streams and jumping back into the Global Top 10.
“Coachella is the real indicator of success. The data surge after her performance shows she isn’t just reaching fans, she’s reaching the general public,” noted one viral industry analysis.
Jennie’s Record Run by the Numbers
- 300: Days straight as the #1 K-pop act on Spotify.
- 42M+: Current monthly listeners on the platform.
- 54: Consecutive days “like JENNIE” stayed in the Global Top 10.
- 10/10: Every single track from Ruby charted simultaneously.
Now, fans are watching the clock. Can she push this streak to a full 365 days? With rumors of a deluxe edition and more festival dates, the “Ruby Experience” isn’t slowing down. Can any other soloist challenge this 300-day record in 2026? Only time will tell!
