DYNAMITE ON SHAZAM
Shazam is an app that identifies music through the microphone on your mobile phone.
You can 'Shazam' BTS' songs anywhere you hear them around the world!
It is not a streaming platform. Shazam's data is shared across radio stations in order to determine what songs are topping the Shazam Global/Country charts or those that are increasing in popularity. This will also allow radio stations to add the most popular songs on rotation - so we can help make BTS' tracks be heard on radio more often!
<DYNAMITE> goals:
24 hours: 250K
Global | Week 1: 450K-500K, Top 10
Global | Week 2-4: 100K Shazams per week, Top 20
Country/Area charts | Week 1: Top 10 | Week 2-4: Top 50
