Stray Kids have made Billboard 200 history once again. The group’s new mixtape Do It storms to No. 1 with 295,000 equivalent album units, marking their eighth chart-topping project and extending their record as the K-pop act with the most No. 1 albums in the chart’s history. Even more remarkable, Stray Kids are now the first act across all genres to debut their first eight charting albums at No. 1—an unprecedented milestone in the Billboard 200’s 69-year run.
Released on November 21, Do It serves as the second official installment in the group’s “SKZ It Tape” series. The mixtape arrived with dual singles, “Do It” and “Divine,” supported by cinematic music videos. Streaming traction was immediate: on Spotify’s Daily Global Chart, “Do It” debuted at No. 11 with 3.3 million streams, while “Divine” opened at No. 23 with 2.5 million—both ranking among the strongest K-pop launches of the year.
This achievement builds on momentum created earlier in 2025, when the group’s album Karma debuted at No. 1 and secured Stray Kids the record for debuting their first seven charting albums atop the Billboard 200. Since first topping the chart with ODDINARY in 2022, Stray Kids have maintained a perfect streak, becoming the group with the most No. 1 albums this century.
Elsewhere on the latest Billboard 200, the Wicked: For Good soundtrack—led by Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande—debuts at No. 2 with 122,000 units, marking the highest soundtrack debut of 2025. Taylor Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl slips from No. 1 for the first time, falling to No. 3 after a seven-week reign. Tate McRae’s So Close to What surges back into the top 10, rising 21–6 following a deluxe reissue.
