Steve Aoki’s remix of BTS’ “MIC Drop (featuring Desiigner)” arrived on the US iTunes store early Friday morning.
As of press time at 10:15AM ET, it is #3 on the store’s all-genre song sales chart.
“MIC Drop” is currently the best-selling new release. As far as all releases go, only Camila Cabello’s “Havana (featuring Young Thug)” (#1) and Imagine Dragons’ “Thunder” (#2) are selling at a faster pace.
BTS is currently enjoying a major US showcase. The K-pop group performed — and was positioned as a top draw — at last Sunday’s American Music Awards.
BTS will also take the stage on the November 27 “Ellen DeGeneres Show” and November 29 “Jimmy Kimmel Live.”
