Stray Kids’ latest album is their steadiest seller yet on the Billboard 200!

On August 8 local time, Billboard announced that Stray Kids’ third full-length album “★★★★★ (5-STAR)“—which debuted at No. 1 on its Top 200 Albums chart back in June—had successfully remained on the Billboard 200 for the ninth week in a row.

For the week ending on August 12, “★★★★★ (5-STAR)” stayed strong at No. 51 on the chart, making it Stray Kids’ first album ever to spend nine weeks on the Billboard 200.

Additionally, Stray Kids is now only the second K-pop artist (following BTS) to chart an album in the top 60 of the Billboard 200 for nine consecutive weeks.

Outside of the Billboard 200, “★★★★★ (5-STAR)” held steady at No. 2 on Billboard’s World Albums chart, in addition to sweeping the No. 7 spot on both the Top Album Sales chart and the Top Current Album Sales chart.

Meanwhile, Stray Kids came in at No. 37 on this week’s Artist 100, marking their 29th non-consecutive week on the chart.
