On Wednesday, CL's first official U.S road single topped one of Spotfiy's charts.
"Hello Bitches" was released on Nov. 21, and almost a month later, the song appeared in the number one spot on Spotify's viral 50 chart. The song appeared ahead of songs by Coldplay, J. Cole Bas, Steve James, Erykah Badu, and other singers.
CL's official Facebook page shared the news with a picture.
It was the first time that "Hello Bitches" appeared on Spotify's United States Viral 50 chart and was one of 22 new songs to make an appearance.
Later the same day, the song was knocked down to the number two spot by Alan Walker's "Faded."
"Hello Bitches" is the first song off of CL's upcoming "Lifted" EP. The release date of "Lifted" has yet to be decided. It is CL's first song not to appear on a 2NE1 album.
CL performed "Hello Bitches" for the first time at the 2015 Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) ceremony, where she was reunited with 2NE1 for a performance of their songs "Fire" and "I Am The Best."
