Blackpink has once again proven their global dominance with the release of their latest single, "Jump," marking a triumphant return after a two-year hiatus. The track, which debuted on July 11, 2025, has not only captivated fans worldwide but also secured a significant milestone for the K-pop girl group on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
"Jump" entered the Hot 100 at No. 28, making it Blackpink's tenth appearance on the chart. This achievement places them alongside BTS as the only K-pop acts to have reached double-digit placements on this prestigious U.S. ranking, with BTS holding the record at 27 hits. The South Korean girl group’s new single also became their sixth top 40 hit, a testament to their enduring popularity and influence in the competitive music industry.
While "Jump" debuted at No. 28, its performance on other Billboard charts was even more impressive. The electronic dance single scored top five debuts on nearly every other ranking it appeared on, including both of Billboard’s global lists and a sales-specific tally. This strong showing indicates that "Jump" is poised for a sustained presence on the charts, despite launching during a particularly busy week dominated by other major releases, such as Justin Bieber’s surprise album "Swag."
Blackpink’s previous highest-charting single on the Hot 100 remains "Ice Cream," a collaboration with Selena Gomez that peaked at No. 13 in September 2020. "Jump" now ranks as their fourth-highest-peaking song on the chart, following "Ice Cream," "Pink Venom" (No. 22), and "Shut Down" (No. 25). Notably, three of the four members—Jennie, Lisa, and Rosé—have also found solo success with multiple hits on the Hot 100, underscoring the individual talents within the group.
The release of "Jump" has also been accompanied by a visually striking music video that quickly amassed over 100 million views on YouTube in just 15 days, as reported by their agency YG Entertainment Inc. on July 27, 2025. This marks Blackpink’s 49th video to reach this milestone on the platform, a remarkable feat highlighting their massive global fanbase.
The music video for "Jump" stands out with its Western film-inspired aesthetic and a guitar-heavy sound that showcases the distinctive voices of each member. It also features scenes of fans deeply immersed in Blackpink’s music and enthusiastic crowds cheering on the group, creating an immersive experience that resonates with viewers worldwide.
Since its release, "Jump" dominated YouTube's global daily chart, holding the No. 1 spot for eight consecutive days. It also soared to the top of the Spotify Daily Top Songs Global chart, further cementing its status as a global hit. This success reflects not only the group’s musical prowess but also the loyalty and excitement of their fanbase, which has eagerly awaited new music following their hiatus.
Blackpink’s return coincided with the launch of their 16-city Deadline world tour, which began on July 6, 2025, at a stadium in Goyang, South Korea. The tour marks a significant moment for the group, who have been away from the stage for two years. Their two-day performances in both Goyang and Los Angeles were sold out, underscoring their continued appeal and the high demand for their live shows.
The Deadline world tour includes stops in major cities such as New York and Paris, promising fans worldwide a chance to experience Blackpink’s dynamic performances. The tour and the release of "Jump" together signal a new era for the group, blending their signature style with fresh energy and creativity.
Blackpink’s achievements with "Jump" highlight their unique position in the global music scene. As one of the few K-pop acts to consistently break into the U.S. market, their success paves the way for greater recognition of Korean artists internationally. Their ability to produce chart-topping music while maintaining a strong visual and performance identity keeps them at the forefront of the genre.
Moreover, the group's ability to outpace other notable K-pop soloists, such as BTS member J-Hope—who has eight Hot 100 hits as a solo artist—demonstrates their collective strength and broad appeal. Blackpink’s blend of individual talent and cohesive group dynamics continues to captivate audiences and critics alike.
As "Jump" continues to climb charts and the Deadline world tour progresses, Blackpink’s influence in pop culture and music remains undeniable. Their blend of catchy, danceable tracks with compelling visuals and powerful performances ensures they stay relevant in an ever-evolving industry.
With their latest achievements, Blackpink not only celebrates a successful comeback but also sets a high bar for what’s to come. Fans and industry watchers alike will be keen to see how the group leverages this momentum in the months ahead, both on the charts and on stage.
In the competitive world of global pop music, Blackpink’s "Jump" serves as a reminder of their unique ability to merge musical innovation with mass appeal, securing their place as true queens of K-pop.
