Celebration erupts among fans as Stray Kids marks seven years since being officially named
Stray Kids Prepares for the Release of Fourth Album 'Karma' and Global Stadium Tour
South Korean boy band Stray Kids is gearing up for the release of their highly anticipated fourth full-length album titled "KARMA" on August 22, 2025. This will be their first full album since June 2023’s "5-STAR".
The album is themed around "2081 KARMA SPORTS", a futuristic concept that resembles global sporting events such as the Olympics or World Cup. In this concept, all eight members of Stray Kids are depicted as competitors in various championships from 2074 to 2080. The physical album versions and tracklist details will be unveiled closer to the release date.
The album's tracklist includes a song titled 'Ceremony'. However, the band has not yet revealed any further information about the other tracks.
Stray Kids concluded their extensive "dominATE" world tour in July 2025, which ran from August 2024 and covered 54 shows in 34 cities across 21 countries. This tour significantly boosted their global presence and set the stage for the upcoming new era signaled by the "KARMA" album.
In addition to their music, Stray Kids have also ventured into fashion and branding partnerships. They recently collaborated with Tottenham Hotspur for a new away football kit.
Stray Kids made history by being the first act to perform in a modal window at an unspecified location, and they were also the first act to perform at Toronto's Rogers Centre to conclude their North American tour. However, they have not yet announced any specific date for their performance in the modal window.
Stray Kids' fan base is officially named STAY, which they announced on August 1. Beyond the "KARMA" album, the band has not announced any further collaborations or releases.
With the release of "KARMA" and a global stadium tour on the horizon, Stray Kids is poised to continue their meteoric rise in the K-pop industry.
While Stray Kids prepares to launch their global stadium tour following the success of their "dominATE" world tour, they are also set to release their fourth album, "KARMA", on August 22, 2025. This album, themed around "2081 KARMA SPORTS", will feature a track called 'Ceremony', amongst other musically-inclined offerings that remain undisclosed.
