VANNER reached yet another career milestone by entering Billboard Charts for the first time, and heightened expectations for the group’s expansion into the global music scene.
According to Billboard, VANNER’s 3RD MINI ALBUM "BURN" ranked 32nd on Billboard’s ‘Top Album Sales’ Chart, released on October 29th. The ‘Top Album Sales’ Chart measures physical album sales within the United States for one week.
‘BURN’ also ranked 15th on Billboard’s ‘Emerging Artists’ Chart, the highest ranking male K-pop artist on this week’s chart. The ‘Emerging Artists’ Chart tracks album sales from new artists who have yet to top other Billboard Charts, using the same metrics as ‘Billboard Artist 100’ Chart. VANNER’s achievement on the ‘Emerging Artists’ Chart proves that the group has the potential to enter higher charts in the future. ‘BURN’ ranked 26th on Billboard’s ‘Current Album Sales’ Chart, 14th on the ‘World Albums’ Chart as well.
Not only did ‘BURN’ perform astoundingly on the Billboard Charts, but also topped several music charts according to reports released by Luminate, a music measurement platform that collects sales data. ‘BURN’ ranked 1st on the ‘Top New Artist Albums’ Chart, 13th on the ‘Internal Album’ Chart, 5th on the ‘Record Label Independent Current Albums’ Chart, and 32nd on the ‘Heatseekers Album’ Chart.
VANNER has steadily been moving into the U.S. music scene over the past few months. Before the release of ‘BURN’, the group also released their first English single ‘I don’t think that I like her (cover.)’. The success of the ‘I don’t think that I like her (cover.)’ was followed by a visit to Los Angeles for an exclusive Rolling Stone Magazine photoshoot and interview, clad in designer brands such as FENDI, VERSACE, GIVENCHY, and Maison Margiela.
The group’s activities in L.A. were also covered by an interview with LA Magazine, during which members spoke of their excitement in experiencing their popularity in the U.S. VANNER’s 3RD MINI ALBUM ‘BURN’ was released on the group’s first U.S. Artist Store through Klap Entertainment. U.S. Exclusive Signed copies of ‘BURN’ sold out quickly, thanks to an outpouring of support from VANNER’s global fanbase.
Entering Billboard Charts is only the first step in VANNER’s journey toward global stardom. Listeners and music industry officials alike are excited to see what records VANNER will break next.
