Commercial performance[edit]
A few months after its release, "Pantropiko" gained massive virality on TikTok, spawning countless dance challenge videos, which led to the song's rapid rise on domestic music charts.[6] On February 11, the song entered the Philippine edition of Spotify Charts' Daily Top Songs at number 173, before topping the chart on April 18.[2] With the momentum of the song's success, coupled with the release of Talaarawan on March 8, Bini achieved the milestone of becoming Spotify's highest-streamed female OPM artist, as well as the Filipino P-pop group with the most monthly listeners.[7][8]
