The music of Kpop Demon Hunters has absolutely taken the world — and Billboard‘s charts — by storm, but there might be more to come from the ladies who provided vocals for fictional girl group HUNTR/X.

As revealed in an accidental slip on the Jingle Ball red carpet Tuesday, singers EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI shared their hopes to collaborate on original music together someday. “People want to see you as a group — are we ever going to get some music?” Billboard‘s Tetris Kelly asked them in a clip that premiered Tuesday (Dec. 9) in the Druski-hosted 2025 No. 1s Livestream.

“The three of us? Of cou- ,” EJAE began before catching herself, stopping the response in its tracks.

Whoops! As Kelly celebrated the seeming confirmation — “She almost said, ‘Of course!'” — EJAE changed tact. “Who knows? We’d love to, are you kidding?” she said, keeping up the mystery. “These girls are so talented.”

“We should get in the studio guys,” Nuna joked. “After this, tonight.”

The real-life singers behind HUNTR/X were part of a big lineup of stars that performed at iHeartRadio’s 2025 Jingle Ball event in Los Angeles last week. Also at the annual showcase were The Kid LAROI, Conan Gray, Zara Larsson, Leon Thomas and more.

Thanks to Kpop Demon Hunters, EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI are now global superstars, with their recording of “Golden” for the animated Netflix film spending eight weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The biggest chart hits and artists of 2025 were revealed during Billboard‘s two-hour livestream hosted by Druski on Tuesday, with “Golden” coming in at No. 10 on the year-end Billboard Global 200.

“It’s a dream come true for sure,” REI AMI told Billboard at Jingle Ballof the impact “Golden” has had on the culture. “[We’re] honored and very, very filled with gratitude.”

Billboard Canada 2025: The Covers

Here are all of Billboard Canada’s covers of 2025, spotlighting artists, executives and career moments that shaped the year.

A Billboard Canada cover marks a moment when an artist, a career or an industry story reaches a point worth reflecting on. Across 2025, those moments ranged from chart-defining comebacks and first-ever interviews to farewell tours and leadership milestones that shaped Canada’s live and recorded music landscape. Each cover reflected not just who was in focus, but why that story mattered at that specific time.

This year was bookended by big Canadian rock comeback stories: Sum 41 calling it quits after one of their most successful albums, and Three Days Grace entering one of their highest-charting phases after a reunion with original lead singer Adam Gontier. It was a year of rising stars entering the next level, like The Beaches, and artists returning to their roots, like Daniel Caesar and his intimate show at NXNE 2025. And it was a major year for Live Nation, the dominant live promotions company that has helped turn Toronto into one of the biggest global touring markets.
