Additionally, LISA just joined Adele, Billie Eilish, Doja Cat, Gayle, Olivia Rodrigo, and SZA as the only artists to reach 1 Billion views with a solo song released in 2021. Money is now in competition against "Woman" by Doja Cat for the title of the most streamed rap song by a female solo artist of all time on Spotify (1.3 Billion streams).
Despite everything she achieved on her own, many netizens today continue to wonder what would have happened if YG Entertainment had made the decision to release full remixes from the first day of the release of "Money" to exponentially boost the song as it is a common practice lately in K-pop. Unfortunately, the question will remain unresolved since 2 years have already passed, and there was no official remixes released by Lisa.
