K-POP KIDS LEAD NEW RELEASES

Stray Kids' MAXIDENT (JYP/Imperial/Republic), issued via Ingrooves, is headed for a #1 debut on the HITS Top 50, their second release to open on top; ODDINARY debuted with 110k in March. See all the new activity below.

Stray Kids (JYP/Imperial/Republic): 95-110k
Quavo & Takeoff (Quality Control/Motown): 28-32k
YoungBoy Never Broke Again (NBA/Atlantic): 25-30k
G Herbo (Republic): 24-28k

Look for additional projections early in the week for Lamb of God (Epic) and Charlie Puth (Atlantic).

Now, if you'll excuse us, we have to stock up for the HITS pumpkin-carving party, which for some reason includes two bottles of scotch, a carton of Marlboros and no pumpkins.
