The 24 hour goals…



GOAL: SHAZAM 250K Global
GOAL: APPLE MUSIC TOP 50

GOAL: Spotify 1.5 Million Streams

GOAL: iTunes No.1 This goal was easily reached with “Dynamite” reaching number 1 and the instrumental version hitting number 2 on the chart.

GOAL: YouTube 100M Views and 6.5M Likes (Global) Although this goal seemed pretty impossible, they were super close to making it. 24 hours after the release, the music video hit 98,291,053 views with 8.8M likes. They hit the actual 100M view mark at 24 hours and 27 minutes which is still an amazing accomplishment considering the goal itself was really high already. 

Update: YOUTUBE Confirmed Dynamite got 101.1 million views in 24 hours!
GOAL: Radio 500 Spins A radio spin is the number of times a track is played on the radio. Although “Boy With Luv” reached 900 spins, they put the goal for “Dynamite” at 500 because radio was not something that fans could control. However, they beat their own record and reached 1,700 spins on release day. This is almost double their previous record!
