The boy band Stray Kids have set a new record by topping the US Billboard Main Album Chart's 'Billboard 200' for the ninth consecutive time with their latest mini-album, 'Dis & Dang.' This achievement also brings their total number of 1st place finishes to nine, tying them with The Rolling Stones and The Beatles for second place all-time.

Billboard announced on the 16th (local time) that Stray Kids' new mini-album 'Dis & Dang' debuted at number one on the 'Billboard 200' 22 days ago. This marks the group's ninth album to reach the top spot on the chart, a record never seen before in Billboard history. The record began with 'Odinary' and 'Maxendent,' and continued with 'Five Star,' 'Roxstar,' 'Eight,' 'Him,' 'Karma,' 'Doojin,' and now 'Dis & Dang.'

Stray Kids have become the first artist in Billboard history to enter the 'Billboard 200' history with six albums that topped the chart consecutively. Their previous records include a record-breaking 7-week number one run with 'Karma' and an 8-week number one run with 'Doojin.' This latest success has extended their record to nine weeks.

It also brings their total number of 1st place finishes to nine, tying them with The Rolling Stones and The Beatles for second place all-time. Stray Kids have also set a new benchmark in terms of sales figures. The album 'Dis & Dang' recorded 369,900 album units (including streaming) in the US, with 357,000 physical album sales being their highest weekly sales yet.

Internationally, the album also showed strong sales performance. According to Korean chart company Hanteo, 'Dis & Dang' achieved the fourth all-time triple million-selling figure with 3,289,269 copies sold. Like its predecessor 'Doojin,' it also enjoyed top spots in both the weekly and circular charts. The album features eight tracks, including the title track 'Dis & Dang,' showcasing Stray Kids' signature confidence and freedom.
