Stray Kids will go down as the musical act that stopped Taylor Swift’s reign forever. That’s impressive.

K-Pop powerhouse Stray Kids is aiming for a monumental moment with their new album, “DO IT,” projected to debut at #1 on the Billboard 200 with 245,000–260,000 units in its first week, according to @HITSDD. If the predictions hold true, this will mark their eighth #1 album, a record-setting achievement that would make them the first act in history to debut their first eight charting albums at #1.

This milestone would also extend Stray Kids’ already impressive legacy, breaking records for the most #1 albums by a group this century and the most #1 albums ever for a K-Pop act in history. Since their debut, Stray Kids have consistently delivered high-performing albums, combining commercial success with a devoted fanbase. Each release—from GO LIVE to MAXIDENT—has demonstrated the group’s ability to dominate both Korean and global charts, solidifying their reputation as one of K-Pop’s most influential acts.

On Spotify, every track from “DO IT” has already amassed at least 2 million streams, with “Do It” and “DIVINE” leading the pack. The streaming numbers showcase the group’s strong digital presence and fan engagement, reinforcing their chart-topping potential.

If “DO IT” hits #1 as expected, it will dethrone Taylor Swift’s The Life Of A Showgirl, which has maintained a firm grip at the top for several weeks, further proving that Stray Kids are not only a global K-Pop force but also a serious contender in the international music market.
