Stray Kids has reached another major milestone on Spotify.

The group’s mini albums “ODDINARY” and “ATE” recently surpassed 1 billion total streams each on the global music streaming platform. With this, Stray Kids now has six albums that have crossed 1 billion streams on Spotify.

Their other albums that previously reached the milestone include “IN生”, “NOEASY”, “GO生”, and “★★★★★ (5 STAR)”. This gives Stray Kids the second highest number of 1 billion stream albums among K-pop groups.

“ODDINARY”, released in March 2022, helped show Stray Kids’ unique identity to global fans. The album title combines the words “Odd” and “Ordinary,” reflecting the group’s distinct concept and sound.

“ATE”, released in July 2024, also received strong support from fans in Korea and around the world. The album showed the group’s confidence in the global music market and featured high quality music created with the participation of 3RACHA, the group’s producing team made up of Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han.

Stray Kids is also preparing for their next comeback. The group will release their new mini album “THIS & THAT” on August 7.

The album will include their digital single “RUN IT”, which topped iTunes Top Songs charts in 41 regions, including the United States, Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Spain, and the United Kingdom, after its release on June 24.

The group continues to show strong global chart power. In 2025, Stray Kids became the first artist in the world to have 8 consecutive albums debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

Before the release of “THIS & THAT”, Stray Kids will open their world tour with 5 shows at KSPO DOME in Seoul on July 25, July 26, July 29, August 1, and August 2.

The group is also set to continue its festival run. After performing in front of around 45,000 people at The Governors Ball Music Festival in New York in June, Stray Kids will headline Rock in Rio in Brazil on September 11.

They are also scheduled to headline the new Latin America festival “STRAYCITY” in 3 regions later that month.
