Billboard‘s Hot Trending Songs charts, powered by Twitter and sponsored by Capital One, track global music-related trends and conversations in real-time across Twitter, viewable over either the last 24 hours or past seven days. A weekly, 20-position version of the chart, covering activity from Friday through Thursday of each week, posts alongside Billboard‘s other weekly charts on Billboard.com each Tuesday. The charts highlight buzz around new releases, award shows, festival moments, music nostalgia and more. Hot Trending Songs is unique in that it tracks what songs people are talking about, not necessarily what they’re listening to.
The Hot Trending Songs top five is stationary – and includes two BTS members on their own – as below “Butter” are TREASURE’s “Jikjin” at No. 2, a week after it soared in at the top spot; “Stay Alive” by BTS’ Jung Kook at No. 3, after reaching No. 2; Dimash Kudaibergen’s “Fly Away” at No. 4, after hitting No. 2; and BTS member Jin’s “Yours” at No. 5, after reaching No. 3.
