ROSÉ Aims for Double AMA Win: Can "APT." Create New K-POP History at 2025 Awards?
[BLACKPINK's ROSÉ nominated for two categories at the American Music Awards, generating global buzz]
All eyes in the global music industry are on BLACKPINK's ROSÉ as she stands poised to potentially make history at the American Music Awards (AMA), one of the most prestigious music ceremonies in the United States.
ROSÉ has received dual nominations for her collaboration with Bruno Mars, "APT.," in both the "Collaboration of the Year" and "Favorite K-Pop Artist" categories. This unprecedented achievement for a female K-POP solo artist further cements ROSÉ's growing global influence.
Breaking Records: 26 Consecutive Weeks on Billboard Hot 100
"APT." has made a remarkable impact since its release, remaining on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 26 consecutive weeks—the longest streak ever achieved by a female K-POP solo artist. The track also dominated the Global 200 chart for 12 consecutive weeks at #1, creating significant waves across international music markets. These impressive performances in the US and European markets substantially increase ROSÉ's chances of winning at the AMAs.
On Spotify, "APT." surpassed 600 million streams in record time for a female K-POP solo artist's song. These overwhelming statistics demonstrate both ROSÉ's devoted global fandom and her exceptional musical capabilities.
Competing Against Global Superstars
The American Music Awards determines winners based on a combination of fan votes, streaming numbers, sales figures, and radio airplay. ROSÉ's powerful global fanbase and the track's commercial success have positioned her as a serious contender.
In the "Favorite K-Pop Artist" category, ROSÉ faces formidable competition from BTS members, Stray Kids, ATEEZ, and other prominent acts. However, she stands out as the only female solo artist nominated, giving her a distinctive presence in the category. With female solo artists making significant strides in the K-POP market this year, industry observers note that ROSÉ's chances of winning are particularly noteworthy.
Meanwhile, the "Collaboration of the Year" category features heavyweight matchups including Taylor Swift & Post Malone, Kendrick Lamar & SZA, and Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars. Despite this fierce competition, if ROSÉ's "APT." secures the award, it would represent a monumental achievement that elevates K-POP's standing in the global music landscape.
2025 AMAs Set for Memorial Day in Las Vegas
This year's American Music Awards ceremony will take place in Las Vegas on Monday, May 26 (Memorial Day). The event has generated additional buzz with global pop icon Jennifer Lopez announced as the host.
The awards show will be broadcast live simultaneously on both U.S. coasts via CBS and will be available for streaming worldwide through Paramount+. This widespread coverage has intensified global fans' attention on ROSÉ's attendance and potential wins.
ROSÉ's representatives stated, "We are positively considering her attendance at the AMAs," adding that "the possibility of a joint performance with Bruno Mars is also being explored."
"A New Milestone for Female K-POP Solo Artists"
A YG Entertainment representative commented, "ROSÉ's 'APT.' transcends being merely a hit song—it's a work that blurs the boundaries between K-POP and mainstream pop music. The AMA nominations alone carry significant meaning."
Music industry insiders have praised ROSÉ's AMA nominations as "establishing a new milestone for female K-POP solo artists," noting that "regardless of the results, she has already made a substantial impact on the global music market."
A Billboard representative also commended the collaboration, stating, "'APT.' demonstrates new global possibilities for K-POP," and that "the collaboration between ROSÉ and Bruno Mars represents a perfect harmony of both artists' musical capabilities."
All attention is now focused on whether ROSÉ can achieve a double win at the AMAs with "APT." and write a new chapter in K-POP history. Fans worldwide are eagerly anticipating news of her potential victories at the Memorial Day ceremony.
