Stray Kids tops the Billboard 200 with its new EP, “This & That,” marking the group’s ninth No. 1 album on the chart. Billboard previews that the latest release keeps the act at the top while extending its long-running record on the main rankings.
The coverage notes that Stray Kids moves to the second-most No. 1 albums among groups in Billboard 200 history, behind only The Beatles. It also ties the group with the Rolling Stones at that position, while remaining the only K-pop group to have topped the chart eight times prior to the new achievement.
The EP, described as Stray Kids’ 10th release of the type, contains eight tracks led by the hip-hop-based title song “This & That.” Sources also highlight that all eight tracks are produced by the band’s in-house team 3Racha, made up of Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han, and that the title track is intended to deliver a “chill” and “cool” mood.
