BTS has dropped their new song on YouTube and, like their previous music videos, it has smashed the record for the number of views soon after its debut.
Titled “Butter,” it became the fastest video in YouTube history to surpass 10 million views, doing so in just 13 minutes.
The video had crossed 53 million views in the first seven hours of being shared and it has been liked by more than 5.4 million YouTube users. The record for the fastest 10 million views was previously held by the band’s previous hit, “Dynamite,” that premiered in August 2020.
“Dynamite” had managed 10 million views in 21 minutes. It was BTS’ first song to be released entirely in English and it went on to become the biggest 24-hour debut in YouTube history with over 101.1 million views.
BTS is scheduled to perform as part of Good Morning America’s Summer Concert series on June 11, which will also feature dancehall stars Spice, Shaggy and Sean Paul.
