Stray Kids have achieved their largest sales performance with the release of “This & That,” which enters the Billboard 200 at the top position with 369,000 equivalent album units. Traditional album sales comprised 357,000 of that total, establishing a new peak for the group’s commercial output.
The album’s performance strengthens Stray Kids’ historical standing on the chart. With nine No. 1 entries, the group now ties the Rolling Stones for the second-most chart-toppers among musical groups in Billboard 200 history. Only the Beatles hold a higher count with 19 No. 1 albums. In 2026, “This & That” ranks as the sixth-largest sales week for any album release, though it trails BTS’ “Arirang,” which debuted in March with 532,000 traditional album sales.
The group’s dominance has been built progressively since their first Billboard 200 No. 1 with “Oddinary” in 2022. Two years later, Stray Kids became the first act to debut their initial six chart entries at the top position following the release of “Hop.”
Elsewhere on the chart, Ariana Grande’s “Petal” moves to the second position in its second week with 82,000 equivalent album units, while Olivia Rodrigo’s “You Seem Pretty Girl So in Love” remains at No. 3. Ella Langley’s “Dandelion” sits at No. 4, and Morgan Wallen’s “I’m the Problem” descends to No. 5. Rounding out the upper chart positions are Noah Kahan’s “The Great Divide” at No. 6, Pooh Shiesty’s chart debut “All Eyes on Shiest” at No. 7, and Karol G’s “No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto” at No. 8.
