P-pop phenomenon BINI has achieved a remarkable milestone, amassing an impressive 1.4 million monthly listeners on the platform. This marks the first time ever that a female pop group in the country has been able to achieve such a feat, which has also led them to become the Filipino P-pop group with the most monthly listeners.
This significant accomplishment follows the recent release of their first EP Talaarawan, inspired by personal diaries, which debuted earlier on March 8. The EP swiftly climbed up the top of the iTunes Philippines albums chart, with several of its tracks dominating the top 10 of the iTunes Philippines songs chart –– notably led by the standout track “Salamin, Salamin,” which clinched the much coveted top spot.
On the platform of Spotify alone, “Salamin, Salamin” has already garnered over one million streams, while the EP as a whole amassed more than 14 million streams in under two weeks. Notably, “Salamin, Salamin” secured a spot on the top 200 of the Spotify Philippines Daily Songs Chart and is prominently featured on Radar Philippines and OPM Rising playlists.
Meanwhile, their other hit single “Pantropiko” continues to captivate audiences, reaching no. 23 on the Spotify Philippines Daily Songs Chart and no. 32 on the Spotify Global Viral Chart, accumulating an impressive 9.8 million streams. Furthermore, BINI, hailed as the “nation’s girl group,” ascended to no. 34 on the Spotify Philippines Daily Top Artists chart, marking them as the highest-charting pop group in the country.
Just recently, BINI was named Billboard Philippines‘ first-ever honoree for the Rising Star award for the forthcoming Women in Music event, which is set to happen this March 22 (Friday). With their meteoric rise and unprecedented achievements, BINI is on the brink of making history as they set their sights on a monumental milestone for the P-Pop genre as a whole, which is clinching the coveted #1 spot on Billboard’s Philippines Songs Chart.
With their unstoppable momentum and unwavering dedication, the possibility of BINI becoming the first-ever P-pop group to achieve this milestone is within tantalizing reach. As fans continue to rally behind them, each stream, download, and vote becomes a crucial step toward realizing this. With the challenge clear, the goal is set — and with BINI’s unstoppable ascent, making it on top of the Billboard Philippines charts could easily become a reality very soon.
