‘Global Sensation’ Stray Kids Release New Mini Album ‘ATE’ on July 19th!
Stray Kids have firmly established themselves as a leading K-pop group on the global stage, continually growing with their self-produced music. Their mini-album ‘ODDINARY,’ released in March 2022, debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart. This was followed by their October 2022 mini-album ‘MAXIDENT,’ their third full album ‘★★★★★ (5-STAR)’ in June 2023, and their November mini-album ‘樂-STAR.’ Each of these albums also reached number one on the Billboard 200 chart. Notably, the title track ‘Rock (樂)’ from ‘樂-STAR’ secured the 90th position on the Billboard ‘Hot 100,’ marking the first time a fourth-generation K-pop boy group entered this chart.
Stray Kids have further elevated K-pop’s global stature by sweeping trophies at various international award ceremonies. They won the ‘Best K-Pop’ category at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards with their title track ‘S-Class’ from the album ‘★★★★★ (5-STAR).’ Additionally, at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards in November, they received the ‘Top K-Pop Album’ award for ‘★★★★★ (5-STAR).’ Their success continued into 2024, winning ‘Group of the Year’ at the February 2024 People’s Choice Awards and ‘K-Pop Album of the Year’ at the April 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards.
This summer, with the release of their new album ‘ATE,’ Stray Kids will headline three major music festivals: ‘I-Days’ in Milan, Italy, ‘BST Hyde Park’ in London, UK, and ‘Lollapalooza Chicago’ in the USA.
With their unique group color and individuality, Stray Kids are set to captivate worldwide fans with their new mini album ‘ATE’ released on July 19th.
