Famous American media quotes AB6IX‘s Brand New Music group as saying, “One of kpop’s hottest young rookie groups makes Billboard debut after collaborating with stars and announcing of a new album “.
AB6IX have ranked this week in the chart “Social 50” Billboard in the 30th place, according to the results of October 5th. The five-member group received 43,000 Twitter mentions (up 146% from the previous week) and 164,000 retweets (up 104%) during the week of September 20-26.
The “Social 50”, as explained by Billboard’s journalists, is powered by data tracked by music analytics company Next Big Sound and ranks the most popular artists on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and Wikipedia.

AB6IX were notable with a remix of Lizzo’s Hot 100 “Truth Hurts“, bringing the mix of their energetic vocals and a softer rap style. this title allowed them to cover several magazines and increase their visibility. AB6IX also aroused the enthusiasm of the teasers that preceded the release of their new album, 6ixense, on October 7th. During the same week, the group dropped five sets of new photos to relaunch the release.
Even though AB6IX‘s first EP album didn’t rank on the US charts, the band made a big impression in Korea. With this second mini-album that you will discover tomorrow, the 5 boys hope to improve all that.
