From their debut album ‘I am NOT’ to their most recent release ‘KARMA’, Stray Kids have built a unique musical universe by taking part in creations of every album themselves. The countless songs they have written, produced and recorded carry the special SKZ imprints, leaving an unforgettable mark to listeners’ heart across the world.
The group has continued to make diverse musical attempts over the past seven years, solidifying their status as a “global top artist” from debuting the U.S Billboard 200 with seven consecutive albums at No. 1, the first act to achieve this in the chart’s 70-year history and successfully completing a massive world tour with 56 shows across 35 regions.
Triumphantly returning from their largest-ever world tour ‘Stray Kids World Tour < dominATE >’, which spanned about 11 months, they released their 4th full album ‘KARMA’. The album made them a new chapter in Billboard 200 history, and Stray Kids marked another milestone by their first-ever stadium concert in Korea at Incheon Asiad Main Stadium. Just as 2025 enters its final stretch, Stray Kids are embarking on yet another new musical challenge.
SKZ IT TAPE captures the hottest and most definitive mood Stray Kids want to showcase right now, seizing the moment of certainty: “This is it!”. The album ‘DO IT’ opens the SKZ IT TAPE series, delivering Stray Kids’ boundless support and encouragement to “act boldly with confidence right now.” While also telling the story of the group themselves as they passionately seize the moment and create their own new “IT”.
The album features five tracks in total: the double title tracks ‘Do It’ and ‘DIVINE’, along with ‘Holiday’,‘Photobook’, and ‘Do It (Festival Version). Once again, 3RACHA; Bang Chan, Changbin and HAN took part in the production of every track, painting another vivid piece within their expansive musical universe. ‘Do It’, defined by its reggaeton base, cool attitude and powerful energy, delivers a message of “trusting your instincts and moving forward without hesitation,” while ‘DIVINE’ built on a free-spirited and cheerful boom bap rhythm burst with the unique excitement and liberation of Stray Kids as modern-day divines.
At the finale of their tour in October, the group held a celebratory festival titled ‘Stray Kids World Tour < dominATE : celebrate>’ where they surprised fans by unveiling a comeback trailer. The mysterious and captivating video amazed the STAY, trended in over 60 regions including U.S and Japan and even topped YouTube’s Worldwide Music Video Trending chart, showing explosive global buzz.
After racing breathlessly across a distance equivalent to circling the Earth seven times, Stray Kids, who insist they still have a long way to go, are now kicking off another powerful sprint toward year’s end with their new releases, “DO IT’ and its double title tracks, ‘Do It’ and ‘DIVINE’, perfectly embodying the group’s “we Do It when we say we will” spirit.
This year, Stray Kids once again proved their presence as a “global artist”. Their 4th full album ‘KARMA’, released in August, achieved triple million sales in its first week and became the best-selling K-Pop album of 2025 (first-week sales). In the U.S., the album surpassed 400,00 physical sales, making it No. 1 album for 2025 in cumulative U.S sales (based on data from Jan 3-Sept 25, 2025).
The album’s title track ‘CEREMONY’ entered the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 52, marking the group’s fourth entry on the chart. It also debuted No. 27 on Spotify’s Daily Top Songs Global chart and remained on the chart for six consecutive days, making Stray Kids the K-Pop boy group with the longest run on the chart this year.
