bts makes history all seven members land in billboard 200’s top 10 as soloists

Now BTS has attained an incredible level that will define musical history. Having Jin’s Happy launching at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 list (dated November 30, 2024), all seven members of BTS have now ranked in a top 10 as solo artists, joining The Beatles as the only two groups in music history to have every member reach the Billboard 200 top 10 as soloists. BTS is in company with one of the greatest bands of all time, The Beatles, whose members have made unique and highly sought-after marks as solo artists.

Jin marks the last piece of the puzzle

With the release of Happy, Jin has completed the whole circle for BTS’s solo triumph, marking the seventh and last member achieving top 10 alone. Starting at No. 4 on the Billboard 200, his record ranks among his fellow comrades in this unheard-of success and reflects historical relevance. With each member proving themselves as top-notchers in their own right, his achievement also symbolizes the penultimate piece in a larger narrative of BTS’s unparalleled influence on the global music industry.

For BTS, this occurrence is proof of the group’s power, resiliency, and long-lasting effect of every member’s particular artistic ability—not merely of chart numbers. Jin’s success with Happy marks his artistic and performance progress, therefore proving how equally crucial each BTS member’s solo route is to their group performance. His triumph concludes some of the solo projects fans had been waiting for and emphasizes the degree of BTS’s cultural influence.

The Comparative The Beatles: An Old Mirror

This is even more incredible as this achievement aligns with one of the most respected and potent musical groups of all time—The Beatles. Well-known for their creative work as a group and for each member’s successful solo efforts, The Beatles were the first to meet the mark of every member obtaining a top 10 album in the U.S. Now BTS is carrying on their legacy, bringing in a new era in the music business in which a group can govern both as a collective force and via the solo careers of every member.

The Beatles’ revolutionary victory validates their place in modern music history even more in view of BTS’s contemporaneous popularity. The fact that both BTS and The Beatles have achieved this rare feat emphasizes the eternal nature of musical aptitude and the capacity of a group to cross genre and era. In a time when solo artists usually prevail, the fact that every member of BTS has had solo albums in the top 10 shows the incredible talent and adaptability of each individual.

BTS Members: Analyzing Their Billboard 200 Showing

Every member of BTS, who debuted on the top 10 list with LOVE YOURSELF, has developed a successful solo road up to this historic victory in 2017. Let’s closely review the solo chart achievements of every member:

  • RM debuted solo with Indigo, which came in third on the Billboard 200, December 2022. Hit No. 5 in June 2024 in follow-up Right Place, Wrong Person
  • Jimin premiered Face in April 2023, peaked as No. 2, then followed with M USE, which likewise peaked at No. 2 in August 2024.
  • Suga debuted under Agust D, his alter name, D-DAY in May 2023 at No. 2.
  • J-Hope scored No. 5 and No. 6 respectively with Jack in the Box in September 2023 and Hope on the Street VOL. 1 in April 2024.
  • V set waves with his solo album Layover, which peaked in September 2023 at No. 2.
  • With GOLDEN Jung Kook came second in November 2023.
  • Happy premiered at number four in November 2024 and helped Jin complete the solo collection.

From rap to pop to experimental sounds, this full collection of solo albums from every member emphasizes their different skills, therefore verifying Bts’s place not just as a group but also as independent powers in music. Though every member’s particular work presents a different story, viewed as a whole, they highlight the flexibility and worldwide appeal of BTS’s members as they explore their own creative identities.

How The Beatles influenced BTS’s solo trips

The Beatles clearly have had a big influence on BTS from their early years as a group to every member’s solo projects. For BTS, who have often shown their affection for the venerable British band, the ability of the Beatles to transcend the group dynamic and find success as individual artists has long been an inspiration. Like The Beatles, BTS has become a cultural phenomenon influencing world trends, fashion, language, and music as well as other fields. Every member’s solo CD captures both proof of the group’s influence on career direction and their artistic development.

BTS’s solo endeavors mirror The Beatles’ pathways chosen, showing how their joint popularity has set the platform for every member to examine many artistic areas and develop their own personalities. Like The Beatles, BTS is showing how their legacy—as single performers as well as collectively—will shape following generations of musicians.
