“Butter” held on to the No. 1 spot on the latest edition (July 3) of the Billboard Songs of the Summer survey (which will run from June 12 to Sept. 11), and the song led the Billboard Hot 100 song chart for a fifth week in the latest tally, continuing a run that kicked off since it debuted at No. 1. following its May 21 release, making it the group’s longest leading No. 1 to date.
Andrews recently described the process of creating “Butter” to Billboard, saying that when she first heard it in February, she knew it was something special. “When [writer-producer] Rob [Grimaldi] sent me this song he worked on with [writers] Stephen Kirk and Sebastian Garcia, I immediately thought that the hook and melody were incredible,” Andrews said. “I thought that this could be amazing for BTS.” After that, “we restructured all the lyrics, rewrote the verses and pre-chorus, and then added the rap. It started there.”
