KATSEYE Achieves First No. 1 Album on Billboard 200 With ‘WILD’
KATSEYE lands its first No.
1 album on the Billboard 200 as WILD debuts atop the list (dated Aug.
29).
The set earned 170,000 equivalent album units in the United States in the week ending Aug.
20, according to Luminate.
WILD marks the group’s second top 10-charted effort, following the No.
4-peaking Beautiful Chaos in 2025.
WILD is the fourth No.
1 album by an all-woman group this decade.
It follows TWICE’s With YOU-th (2025), NewJeans’ 2nd EP ‘Get Up’ (2023) and BLACKPINK’s Born Pink (2022).
Before Born Pink , the last No.
1 album by an all-woman group was Danity Kane’s Welcome to the Dollhouse in 2008.
WILD also lands KATSEYE its biggest week by equivalent album units earned, and by pure album sales (145,000).
Further, WILD tallies the largest week by units for an all-woman group since the Billboard 200 began ranking by units in December 2015.
