According to reports, "Butter" has an unfiltered global stream of 20.9 million and 11.042 million filtered global streams on the day of its release. If the numbers are combined and accurately recorded, "Butter" could be the most-stream song ever in the history of Spotify.

The new digital single, "Butter" was released on May 21, 2021, at 13:00 Korea Standard Time or 12 midnight Eastern Standard Time. Its label, HYBE reported previously that the single is sure to melt the hearts of ARMYs.

They finally have another award on their hands as the 2021 MTV Movie & TV Music Awards awarded BTS the award for "Best Music Documentary" for "Break The Silence: The Movie." "Break The Silence: The Movie" is a documentary film released in 2020 features behind the scene videos of BTS in preparation for their 2018-2019 "Love Yourself Tour."
