Stray Kids continues to cement their position as a global powerhouse. Their mini-album ATE, released in July 2024, has earned a gold certification from the French National Phonographic Society (SNEP). This achievement marks their third gold certification in France, showcasing their growing international popularity.

ATE Hits Gold in France

SNEP confirmed on November 28 that ATE had surpassed 50,000 album sales in France. Founded in 1922, SNEP grants certifications based on verified album and single sales, making this recognition a significant milestone for any artist.

This is not the first time Stray Kids have achieved this honor. Their earlier albums, ★★★★★ (5-STAR) and Rock-Star (樂-STAR), also received gold certifications, reflecting their consistent global appeal. With ATE, the group once again proves its ability to resonate with audiences across borders.

To meet the demand, the group added extra shows in four key cities. New dates include Santiago on March 27, 2025, Sao Paulo on April 6, London on July 19, and Paris on July 27. Stray Kids is now set to perform in 25 stadiums as part of this tour, covering 48 performances across 32 regions worldwide. This scale firmly establishes their status as a global stadium act.

Upcoming Release: SKZHOP HIPTAPE

Stray Kids isn’t slowing down. On November 13 at 2 PM EST, the group will release their highly anticipated album SKZHOP HIPTAPE 合 (HOP), featuring the title track “Walkin On Water.” Fans are eager to see what new sounds and styles the group will bring with this release.

Stray Kids’ ability to dominate both the music charts and stadium stages is a testament to their hard work, creativity, and connection with fans worldwide. As they continue breaking records and reaching new audiences, their influence in the global music industry only grows stronger.
