🎧 V’s “Slow Dancing” Crosses 500 Million Spotify Streams
BTS’s V has achieved another solo milestone. As of May 21, his track “Slow Dancing” surpassed 500 million streams on Spotify, according to BigHit Music.
This marks V’s third solo track to exceed the half-billion mark, following “Love Me Again,” which already passed 1 billion streams.
🎵 A Retro-Romantic Hit
“Slow Dancing,” the title track of V’s debut solo album Layover (released in September 2023), blends 1970s soul-inspired pop R&B with subtle jazz touches.
- 🎙 Vocals: Romantic and airy, perfectly fitting the laid-back vibe
- 🎷 Highlight: An impromptu flute solo in the outro that adds a dreamy finish
The track’s charm lies in its effortless elegance — a perfect match for V’s vocal tone and artistic direction.
📈 Chart Performance
- 🇺🇸 Billboard Hot 100: #51
- 🇬🇧 UK Official Singles Chart: #24
- 💿 Layover Album: #2 on Billboard 200
These chart records cement V’s global popularity as a solo artist, separate from BTS’s group success.
