BTS have released their second English-language single “Butter.” The track follows the K-pop band’s first English-language song, “Dynamite,” which became the first track from an all–South Korean group ever to hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. Listen to “Butter” below.
“Dynamite” was nominated for the 2021 Grammy Award for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance. The group’s “Dynamite” performance was broadcast during the Grammys, too.
Last year, BTS released MAP OF THE SOUL : 7, its Japanese edition MAP OF THE SOUL : 7 ~ THE JOURNEY ~, and the record BE. Coming up, on June 16, BTS will release the Japanese album BTS, the Best.
This past March, BTS shared a statement in support of #StopAsianHate and #StopAAPIHate, where they opened up about their experiences with racism and discrimination. Revisit “BTS: How the Biggest Boy Band in the World Stays Radically Korean” over on the Pitch.
