This week, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) granted Stray Kids’ 2022 hit title track “MANIAC” an official gold certification, acknowledging over 500,000 units sold in the United States.
“MANIAC” is Stray Kids’ second song to achieve gold certification from the RIAA, following their 2020 hit “God’s Menu.”
It also marks their fourth RIAA certification overall, with previous gold certifications for their 2023 albums “★★★★★ (5-STAR)” and “ROCK-STAR.”
This milestone makes Stray Kids the second male K-pop group in RIAA history to earn gold certifications for more than one song, and the fourth K-pop group overall, joining BTS, BLACKPINK, and TWICE.
Congratulations to Stray Kids on this remarkable achievement!
