BLACKPINK’s “Kill This Love” EP Takes #10 On Top Album Sales, #24 On Billboard 200

Both represent new career highs for the group.

The new BLACKPINK EP debuts inside the Top 10 of this week’s Billboard Top Album Sales chart and Top 25 of the Billboard.

Entitled “Kill This Love,” the EP starts at #10 on the former chart, which ranks albums from all genres based on pure US sales. “Kill This Love” fared disproportionately well on the digital front, earning #6 on Billboard’s Digital Albums Chart.

The EP meanwhile takes #24 on the overall Billboard 200, which accounts for album sales, track sales and track streams.

The positions represent new peaks for BLACKPINK, which previously peaked at #7 on Digital Albums, #14 on Top Album Sales and #40 on the Billboard 200. Those three peaks were all set by the “Square Up” EP.
