Stray Kids' latest album, "Karma," achieves the number one spot on the Billboard charts.
In a week marked by fierce competition, the K-pop boy band Stray Kids has made a significant impact on the music scene with their latest album, "Karma." The album, produced by the in-house production team 3Racha, has debuted at the top of this week's Billboard albums chart.
However, unlike their previous hits, "Karma" has not managed to prolong its stay on the chart, following the pattern of their previous successes. The song "Ceremony," which is part of the album, is currently not at the top of the Billboard albums chart either.
One of the standout tracks from "Karma," "Ceremony" has garnered attention, reaching No. 52 on the Hot 100 chart. On the streaming charts, "Karma" sits at No. 34.
The success of "Karma" is primarily due to album sales, with the album selling nearly 300,000 copies, making it the second-biggest sales week for any album released this year, after The Weeknd's "Hurry Up Tomorrow." This impressive sales figure has contributed to Stray Kids racking up the most No. 1 albums in a span of just 3 1/2 years.
The band has surpassed notable artists such as BTS, Linkin Park, and Dave Matthews Band for the most No. 1 albums by any artist this century. Stephen Thompson of NPR Music has acknowledged the achievement, noting that Stray Kids has done something no artist has ever done before with their chart-topping albums.
Interestingly, Stray Kids has achieved a record by having all seven of their albums and EPs debut at No. 1 on the Billboard albums chart. However, the success of "Karma" has not surpassed "Golden" by HUNTR/X in terms of duration on the Billboard albums chart.
Meanwhile, "Golden" by HUNTR/X still sits at No. 1 on the Billboard albums chart, despite the debut of "Karma." The "KPop Demon Hunters" soundtrack, which includes "Golden," has four songs in the Top 10 of this week's Billboard charts. However, it has to settle for second place on the albums chart due to the debut of "Karma."
Stray Kids, a boy band, has made a significant impact in the K-pop industry, with their unique sound and consistent chart-topping successes. Despite the temporary setback with "Karma," fans are eagerly anticipating their future releases.
