Stray Kids’ ‘THIS & THAT’ Extends Historic Billboard 200 Run

Stray Kids’ THIS & THAT is extending the group’s record-setting run on the Billboard 200, holding at No. 3 in its second week after debuting at No. 1.

The mini album earned 82,000 equivalent album units in the United States during the tracking week ending Aug. 20, according to Luminate figures reported by Billboard. The result makes THIS & THAT Stray Kids’ first album to spend two weeks in the Billboard 200’s top three and gives the group its biggest U.S. second week to date.

The hold follows a career-best opening week. THIS & THAT debuted at No. 1 on the chart dated Aug. 22 with 369,000 equivalent album units, including 357,000 traditional album sales — both new highs for Stray Kids in the United States.

That debut gave Stray Kids their ninth No. 1 album on the Billboard 200. Every one of the group’s nine entries on the chart has opened at No. 1, extending a streak that began with ODDINARY in 2022. Stray Kids became the first act in the Billboard 200’s 70-year history to have its first nine chart entries all debut at the top.

With nine No. 1 albums, Stray Kids are also tied with the Rolling Stones for the second-most chart-toppers among groups in Billboard 200 history, behind the Beatles.

The eight-track THIS & THAT is led by a title track of the same name, with all eight songs produced by 3Racha members Bang Chan, Changbin and Han.
