Fans Choose Stray Kids’ ‘KARMA’ as This Week’s Favorite New Music

KARMA, the new album from Stray Kids, tops this week’s fan-voted music poll.

Music fans voted in a poll published Friday (Aug. 22) on Billboard, choosing the K-pop group’s fresh LP as their favorite new release of the past week.

KARMA topped the ranking in a week that also saw new releases streaming in from Doja Cat, Laufey and more. In a narrow victory KARMA was the crowd’s top pick, with the set bringing in more than 50% of the vote — sliding just ahead of Doja Cat’s new single.

Stray Kids’ fresh full-length LP is a collection of 11 tracks — including the single “Ceremony” feat. STAY — all produced by 3RACHA.

KARMA tells a story about destiny from the unique perspective of Stray Kids, according to a press release that announced the album. “Destiny is shaped by a tangled web of choices and consequences,” it said. “KARMA begins with this very idea — an attempt to interpret Stray Kids’ fate. Despite countless external judgments and inner conflicts, they have continued to forge their own path with unwavering resolve. Through their music, Stray Kids represent a story of growth.”

The boy band wrapped their largest world tour to date, Stray Kids World Tour <dominATE>, at the end of July after putting on 54 shows across five continents.

Among the new releases trailing behind KARMA on this week’s poll are Doja Cat’s “Jealous Type,” coming in with 47% of the vote. Laufey’s A Matter of Time, Sombr’s I Barely Know Her, Deftones’ Private Music, Offset’s KIARI, Kid Cudi’s Free and BigXThaPlug’s I Hope You’re Happy follow.
