CORTIZ has officially crossed the 100-million-stream milestone on Spotify, proving their global impact as one of the most promising K-pop rookies of 2025.
According to Spotify's latest data (as of October 12), the rookie group's debut album "COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES" has exceeded 100 million cumulative streams. The album, released on September 8, also achieved 430,000 sales in its first week, securing their status as a "multi-hit" phenomenon.
Both the title track "What You Want" and the B-side tracks are drawing attention. The intro track "GO!" alone has surpassed 35.6 million streams, highlighting the group's strong global presence.
The group is also gaining momentum on Korean charts. Following its feature in an MLB postseason promotional video, "GO!" re-entered Melon's Daily Chart at No. 86 (as of October 12), showing renewed interest among domestic listeners.
CORTIZ continues to expand its influence beyond music. The group recently served as an Honorary Falconer for LAFC, the U.S. football team featuring Son Heung-min, and became the first K-pop group to sign a global partnership with Red Bull.
(In Korea, surpassing 100 million Spotify streams is seen as a benchmark of international success, particularly significant for new K-pop groups making their mark on global charts.)
