Blackpink scores biggest YouTube music video premiere of 2022

[Teletubby 150,373]

“Pink Venom” reached an impressive 86.2 million views within 24 hours after it dropped on YouTube at midnight ET Friday (1 p.m. KST), according to the video platform’s public views counter. It topped the 100-million view mark within 30 hours. Blackpink fans, aka “Blinks,” also gave “Pink Venom” 6 million likes on YouTube during the initial release window.

That makes “Pink Venom” No. 4 on the all-time YouTube 24-hour views rankings, just behind Blackpink’s own “How You Like That,” which reached 86.3 million views June 2020. The top two spots are still held by BTS, which last year racked up 108.2 million views for “Butter” in the first 24 hours and notched 101.1 million for “Dynamite” in 2020. Blackpink’s “Ice Cream,” featuring Selena Gomez, stands in fifth place with 79.0 million views in August 2020.
Note that YouTube’s official 24-hour view count for “Pink Venom” may be adjusted slightly, as the video giant has done in the past. But its status as the biggest music video premiere of 2022 seems safely in hand.

This is a music video. It doesn’t matter the quality of the song. There are tons of examples of this already with American artists as well.  If anything I expect any song coming from a visual artist/group like BLACKPINK to have tons of views no matter how the song is received.
