INI’s ‘All 4 U’ Soars to Top Spot on JAPAN Hot 100, Dominating Music Charts

INI's latest single, "All 4 U," has achieved the top position on the Billboard Japan Hot 100 chart for April 29, marking a significant milestone for the group. This lead track from INI's eighth single, "PULSE," sold an impressive 725,113 copies in its debut week, securing its place at No. 1 for sales. Additionally, "All 4 U" led in downloads, reached No. 3 for radio airplay, and landed at No. 75 for streaming, solidifying its dominant performance across multiple metrics. This achievement marks INI's sixth No. 1 single on the prestigious Japan song chart, adding to their growing list of chart-toppers which includes "CALL 119," "Password," "LOUD," "WMDA (Where My Drums At)," and "Present."
Following closely, Mrs. GREEN APPLE's "Kaze to Machi" climbed one position to No. 2 on the chart. This track, which serves as the poignant theme song for NHK’s morning drama series "Kaze, Kaoru," demonstrated a robust performance. It notably hit No. 1 for radio airplay, surged to No. 2 for downloads, and reached No. 7 for streaming this week, with its radio points experiencing a remarkable 386% increase week-over-week. The anticipation surrounding the song is set to grow further with its music video scheduled to premiere on April 29 at 9 p.m., an event expected to positively influence its chart trajectory in the upcoming weeks. Furthermore, the three-member band saw another of their tracks, "StaRt," re-enter the chart at No. 85. This re-entry follows the group's performance of the song, which was the lead track from their 2015 major label debut mini-album "Variety," on the April 13 broadcast of "TV Mrs," a program hosted by the trio themselves.
CANDY TUNE's "HAPPY BOUNCE BIRTHDAY" made a strong debut, entering the chart at No. 3. The track, taken from the group's third single, launched with substantial sales of 171,762 copies, placing it at No. 2 for sales. Meanwhile, M!LK's "Bakuretsu Aishiteru" maintained its position at No. 4, showcasing its consistent popularity. This song recorded a dominant performance in streaming, holding the No. 1 spot for six consecutive weeks. Its comprehensive chart presence also included No. 12 for sales, No. 16 for downloads, No. 3 for video views, No. 11 for karaoke, and No. 76 for radio airplay. "Sukisugite Metsu!" by the breakout five-member boy band also climbed a notch from last week to secure the No. 5 position. This track has demonstrated exceptional staying power on the karaoke chart, achieving its seventh No. 1 on that metric this week, including an impressive six consecutive weeks.
