Stray Kids was the only K-pop artist to place in the top 10 on the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) Global Artist Chart.
According to what the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry released on the 19th via its official website and social media channels, Stray Kids ranked second on the 2025 Global Artist Chart. The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry ranks annual global charts each year based on physical album sales, digital song downloads and streaming figures released worldwide.
On this Global Artist Chart, Stray Kids stood shoulder to shoulder with prominent pop stars including Taylor Swift, Drake, The Weeknd and Bad Bunny, showing their strength by being the only K-pop artist in the top 10. Since first entering the chart at No. 7 in 2022, they have achieved four consecutive years of top-10 ranking and reached their best-ever result, adding further significance.
Having built a solid career in 2025 with achievements including the first-ever eight consecutive No. 1 titles in the history of the Billboard 200, the world tour Stray Kids World Tour < dominATE > (< 도미네이트 >) results, and winning major awards at prominent popular music ceremonies, Stray Kids will continue their strong performance as headliners at major music festivals early this year.
