Stray Kids' 'KARMA' Hits 17 Weeks on Billboard 200, Becomes Their Longest-Charting Album Ever

Stray Kids just shattered their own record. The group's fourth studio album, 'KARMA,' has officially become their longest-charting entry on the prestigious Billboard 200, proving their sustained power in the global music market.

A New Milestone on the Charts

On December 23 local time, Billboard revealed that 'KARMA' had successfully completed its 17th consecutive week on the Top 200 Albums chart. In doing so, it overtook the group's 2023 release, '★★★★★ (5-STAR),' to claim the title of their longest-running album on the chart to date. The album 'DO IT' also remained in the top 20, showcasing their multiple-album presence.

The Power of Staying Power

This achievement is significant because it highlights consistency over a fleeting debut. An album's ability to chart for months after its release is a direct testament to a dedicated and active global fanbase that consistently streams and purchases the music. In the highly competitive K-pop landscape, such longevity is a key indicator of an artist's true market strength and long-term viability.
