When JUMP scored #1 on Global Spotify, they got hacked
The credits went to ghost artists blocky and nerim
The issue occurred where the #1 song (their song) was removed from the playlist (automatic playback starts from the #2 song)
The Spotify hacking was fixed and restored to normal within a few hours thanks to fans’ mass hashtag efforts, but the next day it got hacked again, causing the previously good momentum to suddenly drop. (The #1 and #4 songs were hacked and fell to #4 and #8, losing over a million streams.)
For reference, the #4 song was also hacked by this guy called Blocky
The point where the graph sharply drops = the day of the hacking
Fortunately, they were able to maintain the global Spotify weekly #1 spot, but the streams lost due to the hacking haven’t fully recovered
This time, Apple Music got hacked.
The credits show ‘The Blackpink.’
When you play the song, it plays at a faster speed.
Thanks to that, the song that was ranked 6th on the global app music chart is out of the daily chart today.
Shazam also got hacked.
Conclusion: During this comeback period alone, Spotify, Apple Music, and Shazam have all been hacked, causing the numbers to drop
