Written by djfrosty on January 10, 2023
Taeyang’s upcoming Jimin-featuring single “Vibe” debuts at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Trending Songs chart dated Jan. 14.
Billboard’s Hot Trending charts, powered by Twitter, track global music-related trends and conversations in real-time across Twitter, viewable over either the last 24 hours or past seven days. A weekly, 20-position version of the chart, covering activity from Friday through Thursday of each week, posts alongside Billboard’s other weekly charts on Billboard.com each Tuesday, with the latest tracking period running Dec. 30-Jan. 5.
“Vibe” marks Taeyang’s first solo single since 2018’s “Louder,” recorded for the Winter Olympics. It’s his first release under THEBLACKLABEL.
BTS’ Jimin last appeared solo via the collaborative track “With You” with Ha Sung Woon, which topped Hot Trending Songs for seven weeks beginning in May 2022.
Though it’s scheduled for release Jan. 13, the announcement of the single on Jan. 4 via social media spurred enough online chatter to launch the song to No. 1 on Hot Trending Songs.
“Vibe” is followed by another song that hasn’t yet seen the light of day: Miley Cyrus’ “Flowers,” also scheduled for a Jan. 13 release. Cyrus announced the new single on Dec. 31 amid her hosting gig for Miley’s New Year’s Party on NBC.
“Flowers” precedes the release of Endless Summer Vacation, Cyrus’ eighth studio album, due March 10.
