Rookie group CORTIS is maintaining steady momentum on U.S. charts, extending the long run of its debut album on the Billboard rankings.

According to Billboard’s latest chart dated Dec. 13 (local time), the group’s debut album Color Outside the Lines placed No. 169 on the Billboard 200. The album re-entered the main chart last week at No. 121—its first appearance in about a month—and has now stayed on the chart for a second consecutive week. Considering the seasonal domination of holiday albums, the performance is viewed as especially notable.

The album also posted strong results across other categories: No. 23 on Top Album Sales, No. 17 on Top Current Album Sales, and No. 5 on World Albums, marking its 13th straight week within that chart.

Industry watchers say the group’s recent appearances at the 2025 MAMA Awards and AAA 2025 helped draw in new global fans, fueling continued interest in the album.

CORTIS is also showing an upward trajectory in international streaming metrics. On Spotify, daily streams of Color Outside the Lines have risen roughly 25 percent since early December. The group’s monthly listeners surpassed 7 million following the broadcast of the MAMA Awards and continued climbing to 7.41 million as of Dec. 8.
