Stray Kids Unveil Mini-Album ‘ATE’: Stream It Now
Stray Kids are back with a brand new mini-album, ATE, which arrived on Friday (July 19).
The eight-member K-pop group — consisting of Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin, and I.N. — dropped the project two months after the arrival of their Charlie Puth-assisted single, “Lose My Breath,” marking the group’s third single of 2024.
On a recent episode of Apple Music’s All About Stray Kids Radio, Bang Chan and Felix opened up about the new project. Felix revealed that ATE’s overall concept is “something we haven’t done.” Bang Chan agreed, adding that not only is the title track single fresh but “a lot of the other songs [are] as well, it’s all very different… what we recorded, it’s just showing a different side of Stray Kids.”
Bang Chan added, “Everyone did a really good job.”
All four of the group’s charting projects — 2022’s Maxident and Stray Kids Mini Album: Oddinary (EP) and 2023’s Rock-Star and 5-Star — debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 all-genre albums chart. Stray Kids is the first act to send its first four charting albums to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 since Alicia Keys (2001-2007).
