Stray Kids have scored their biggest sales week yet as their latest, “This & That,” becomes their ninth No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
The group bows atop the chart with 369,000 equivalent album units, with traditional album sales accounting for 357,000 of that sum. The latest feat extends their record for most No. 1s among groups this century, tying them with the Rolling Stones for second-most No. 1s in the chart’s history among groups, only behind the Beatles with 19 No. 1s. Additionally, “This & That” has the sixth-largest week for an album in 2026 and second-largest by traditional album sales behind the debut of BTS’ “Arirang” in March with 532,000.
Stray Kids previously earned their first No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with “Oddinary” in 2022. Two years later, they became the first act to debut their first six entries at the top spot following the release of “Hop.”
Elsewhere, Ariana Grande’s “Petal” drops from No. 1 to 2 in its second week, earning 82,000 equivalent album units. Olivia Rodrigo’s “You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love” holds steady at No. 3, followed by Ella Langley’s “Dandelion” at No. 4 and Morgan Wallen’s “I’m the Problem,” which dips from No. 2 to 5.
Rounding out the rest of the top 10 are Noah Kahan’s “The Great Divide,” followed by the debut of Pooh Shiesty’s “All Eyes on Shiest” at No. 7. Karol G’s latest album, “No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto,” bows at No. 8, while Drake’s “Iceman” slides from No. 6 to 9. Role Model’s latest album, “Chuck Timely & the Hourglass,” bows at No. 10 with 38,500 equivalent album units.
