KUALA LUMPUR: Suga of international K-Pop sensation BTS has been achieving plenty of success with his first official solo album, D-Day.
Soompi reported that the 30-year-old rapper, songwriter and music producer has become the first K-Pop act in Billboard history to reach No.1 on the influential American publication's Top Rap Albums chart.
Suga's album also topped Billboard's World Albums chart, Top Album Sales chart and Top Current Album Sales chart this week.
The talented idol's single from D-Day, Haegeum, was also No.1 on three charts, namely Billboard's Digital Song Sales chart, World Digital Song Sales chart and Rap Digital Song Sales chart.
Meanwhile, Suga also re-entered Billboard's Artist 100 at No.3 under the name Agust D.
This makes him the second highest-charting K-Pop solo artiste in history after fellow BTS member Jimin, who took the top spot last month.
D-Day, which features 10 tracks, was released on April 21 with People Pt. 2 and Haegeum serving as singles.
The album contains songs with an eclectic mix of music genres ranging from hip hop to alternative rock which has garnered rave reviews from critics.
