KPop Demon Hunters Soundtrack Breaks Records, But Can Taylor Swift Stop It?

As of September 29th, 2025, the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack has become the biggest of the decade, thanks to the song "Golden" spending 6 weeks at the top of the Billboard charts. This surpasses the previous record held by Encanto's "We Don't Talk About Bruno," which ruled the charts for 5 weeks earlier this year.

However, the article notes that if "Golden" wants to become the biggest soundtrack song of all time, it will need to chart for longer than 12 straight weeks. The current record is held by Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth's "See You Again" from the Fast & Furious 7 soundtrack, which was No. 1 for 3 months.

The article suggests that while KPop Demon Hunters has had a groundbreaking run, the upcoming release of Taylor Swift's new album "The Life Of A Showgirl" next weekend may stop "Golden" from reaching that milestone. Swift has a history of her lead singles and albums debuting at No. 1, and her fiancé has been hyping the new album as having "12 bangers," which could easily compete with the popular songs from the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack.

Though the article expresses sadness at the prospect of "Golden" not reaching the "See You Again" record, it acknowledges that the KPop movie has had an incredible run and will continue to be a topic of discussion, even with a new Taylor Swift album on the horizon.
