“★★★★★ (5-STAR)” is Stray Kids’ first album ever to be certified by the RIAA—and it marks their second RIAA certification overall, following their gold certification for their 2020 hit song “God’s Menu” from earlier this month.

With this achievement, Stray Kids has become only the second K-pop artist in history (following BTS) to earn RIAA certifications for both an album and a single.

Stray Kids is also only the third K-pop artist ever to have an album certified gold in the United States at all, following BTS and TXT.
