Stray kids write and produce 99.5% of their music. You can the album intros for their last 2 albums; 5 STAR and Rock Star to see their thought process going into each song on the albums and snippets of the recording sessions directed by 3RACHA (the main production team in the group). As for more personal songs or ballads there are quite a few in their discography for example 'Sorry I Love You', Secret Secret, Winter Falls, Cover Me, Levanter.
@@jesussavedme4975 when he said "God´s Menu" i think that since i´m a stay my instict went like: "ITS NOW, COOKIN LIKE A CHEF, NOW HES GONNA KNOW OUR FELIX POTENCIAL" And seeing this comment says it all
I am 71 and listen to a lot of kpop. BTS and Stray Kidz are both sing in Korean and English but thats about it as far as the similarity goes. I dont compare them because their style is different but both great groups.
What should he compare a K-pop boy band to, except another K-pop boy band 🤔 and BTS is the only one he knows. 71 is old enough to know how comparisons work.
SKZ are the founders of the third type of K-Pop called Mala-Tang (Mala-Taste) after the release of the hit "God's menu". Before SKZ, there were two main directions in K-Pop: Sweet and Salty. "Mala" means something like "pleasant spice", "Tang" literally means "soup".
As for deep songs: Hellevator, Mirror, Voices, Grow Up, Insomnia, I am You, Levanter, Lonely Street, Leave, Cover Me, Phobia, Ex, Scars, Slump, etc etc etc. there’s a lot Solos/duets/units: Bangchan: I hate to admit Lee Know: Limbo Changbin: Streetlight Hyunjin: Lost Star, contradicting Han: alien, volcano, miserable, happy, I got it Felix: Deep end Seungmin: Hold On, Stars and Raindrops I.N: Hug me, Maknae on Top Han + Lee Know: want so bad Bangchan + I.N: Black Hole Hyunjin+ I.N: untitled Changbin + Felix: Because Changbin + Seungmin: Piece of a Puzzle There are lots of unit songs, but other standouts are Waiting for Us, Muddy Water, Red Lights, Surfin’, Gone Away, Snain, 3racha, Taste, Can’t Stop. Yeah… they have a 190+ song discography, and they write pretty much everything. Produce most of it,l and arrange some of it. I would pick an album and do a whole listen. Rock-star was their last one.
Yessss listen to rockstar all the way through. that album gives such whiplash its amazing. You go from partying durying comflex only to cry your soul out during cover me and then just have that lingering sad during leave and then youre back to partying. Its great
@@diana_moshkovskyto be fair, what is so great about their albums is that they are their own little worlds and I cannot stress enough how fun it is for all the whiplash to be actually a full set meal thats just ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Stray Kids write and produce 99% of their music. Three of their members Changbin (0:52), Bang Chan (1:09), and Han (2:04) are their producing unit 3RACHA which was the name of their hip-hop group before they debuted in Stray Kids. Bang Chan is the 3 most credited K-pop artist of all time with over 180 song credits with all the songs being released in the last 5/6 years. The two above him are Ravi from Vixx at #1 and RM at #2 making him the youngest of the top 3 as he is only 26 (a little over a month younger than the youngest BTS member Jungkook). They are the top 3 most credited 4th gen K-pop artists (BTS is 3rd Gen). Bang Chan also is the person that arranges almost all of their music. Also one of their members Lee Know (1:46) was actually a back up dancer for BTS while they were on tour before debuting as a member of Stray Kids. Unlike other groups that have fixed position as rappers, vocalists, and dancers all 8 of them can do all positions well but tend to be known for one aspect more than the others. 3Racha is the producing/rap unit, DanceRacha is the dance unit and includes Lee Know, Hyunjin (1:34), and Felix (The deep voice guy), and VocalRacha which are the two youngest members Seungmin (1:18) and I.N/ Jeongin (1:38). As for more depth you'll have to look more at their B-side tracks rather than their Title tracks though some title tracks with some amazing depth are Hellevator, I am You, and Levanter. Some amazing B-sides are Grow Up, Ex, Silent Cry, Sorry I Love You, Lonely St., Collision, Cover Me and Leave. They also have some incredible Japanese releases like Scars, DLMLU, Slump, and Social Path. I also recommend checking out Neverending Story which is a song they made for a K-drama soundtrack. But you can also find solo stuff and unit songs that have incredible depth from their SKZ-Replay which is made up of 8 solo songs and several of their solo/unit songs from SKZ-Record or SKZ-Player. Not all of SKZ-Record or SKZ-Player songs were released on SKZ-Replay and they are constantly creating more for both of those. Some of my favorites are Volcano by Han, Streetlight by Changbin, Hate to Admit by Bang Chan, Contradicting by Hyunjin, Deep End by Felix, Stars and Raindrops by Seungmin, Alien by Han, Because by Changbin and Felix, Piece by Changbin and Seungmin, and Close by Han.
Thank you to Army who suggested Stray Kids! However, in *no* way are these boys similar to BTS. The more you listen and follow them, you'll realize how unique they truly are. There is a song for every person, because they experiment with so many different styles and genres. They refuse to change, even though they get a lot of opposition in that regard. They remain humble and consistent; I can truly say they have an almost no-skip discography.
I really dislike when people automatically compare any boy kpop group to BTS. BTS was not the first kpop group and while they may be more known than others, to automatically compare every group to them is sort of irritating, like Felix being the RM of Stray Kids... Personally, I never got much into BTS. My daughter introduced me to kpop but my Playlist is kpop, Slipknot, In This Moment, Marilyn Manson, etc. 😂 But Stray Kids, Ateez, NCT127, and Xikers are my main, but the fandoms are toxic and each group may have influences, but comparing groups to BTS is just not right, IMO. Then again, I am older and have old school thinking.
@@rainbowgoth1566I think you just described my playlist (though I'm trying to get my daughter into kpop, not the other way around).😂. Definitely In this Moment, Pretty Little Reckless, Slipknot, Disturbed, Manson, etc in there, but mostly ATEEZ then Stray Kids, Monsta X, some Xikers, etc. My music tends towards harder stuff, so these groups definitely tick the box.
@elizabethwood5658 lol that's funny. I'm a mosh pit Mimi. I love Ateez and their harder stuff. Also, it doesn't hurt that some of these guys are fine AF...
For me, the only songs that are really skippable in stray kids are when they do a Japanese song and then they do a Korean version or vice versa. I usually like the original best. So if it’s not the original, I skip. So that’s basically saying no song of theirs is actually skippable to me. Lol.😂 OR if I’m really really in the mood for some of their fast paced music and one of their slow songs comes on then I skip it because I’m at the mood for megaverse or some thing. Lol but it’s not because I don’t like the song it’s just because I’m not in the mood for it but usually if I’m listening to their soft stuff and megaverse or something like that comes on I can’t skip it because I’m still obsessed with that song as well. Lol!
I am a HUGE bts fan and only very recently looked into stray kids and now I’m OBSESSED. Stray Kids is truly the first group I’ve listened to that I agree when ppl say they aren’t “kpop”. Straykids is practically their own genre..I listen to all kinds of music and I’ve just never heard anything like them. They really are “special” 😂 And I honestly think Bangchan has a HUGE role into why they are so unique. The music they make and produce is just on another level.
When that “flashy flashy” (I don’t know if this is right because I just tell that what subtitle are telling me) I’m always understanding “who got Bangchan” in s-class
Aa a reviewer, Lyricist, music producer, or whatever, to check "depth" in Stray Kids is a whole thing. The deal is to know what they're saying in an intricate korean language Level. Saying "depth" as in more introspective songs like ballads / chill songs, they have some. But their core is a hip rop prodution unit, so you'll see the kind of depth these guys can bring in their lyrics... it's a whole other level, really. They have a lot of puzzly jokes, puns, wordplay in general, they're really creative and genius in a way. I'm always surprised by them since I've started listening to kpop. Stray Kids brought me the pure musical genius juice in all areas: hype, balad, visual, dance, lyrics. Artistically they're all aces.
I wish these reactors will stop comparing them to BTS just because they are the only group they know or they are one of the biggest names right now. Know what? I WOULD LOVE FOR REACTORS TO STOP COMPARING THEM TO BTS. PERIOD. Start just listening and commenting on what you hear without having to result to ANY comparison. SKZ created their own genre because they don't want to be compared to anyone. They wanted to pave their own way and be known as STRAY KIDS, not some band following the footsteps of others. They are grateful to the groups that went before them, but they are their own name and people should acknowledge that. Comparing them to any group or singer out there is not honoring their wishes to be known as just SKZ. So, LISTEN WELL and just share your thoughts on how you feel about their music, their production (music or video) and their performance without mentioning other groups anywhere in your comment. Thank you very much.
@@alxndrrcn totally agree, I was a bit annoyed that he kept mentioning BTS stuff like, respect to BTS as a band cause if they got where they got is cause they have to be good but both bands are not similar in absolutely nothing more than their origin being KPOP. Different genres Different visuals Different vocals and rap styles Different creative direction, production, etc Like, whoever know BTS and SKZ (and whoever doesn't too) would never relate to RM to Felix, they are probably 2 of the most different people ever in every possible way to be compared, in my opinion. I know the guy had no bad intentions so I'm not here to throw hate at the reactior but I want to totally agree with you, it would be simple better if reactors would focus on the actual band and not compare to the only one other thing they know that they think is similar but is not, cause for those who understand a bit is like comparing Taylor Swift to Slipknot. Anyway I'm grateful on the sense that some people are opening their horizons and giving a chance to different kind of music :)
@@AniquiladoraS4 Right? BTS is BTS. SKZ is SKZ. No comparison should be done. He did it (RM to Felix comparison) just 'cause both boys have deep voices when, it is deeper than that. I respect RM as a rapper and individual, but Felix is so much more than his deep voice. His voice adds more color to every song and I love how 3racha makes it a point to highlight and utilize it-and utilize it well, they did. The colors of both bands' music are different, unique and good in their own way. It's like painting. Every painter have unique brush strokes and use colors very differently. That's why you step back to appreciate the whole picture and see how different every painting is. People should step back to see how different the picture SKZ is painting. Reactors should, no matter which band they are listening to, just enjoy the music and bask on the colors they are trying to paint and convey with their voices.
I am 66 years old. I mostly listen to K-Pop. I don't really compare BTS to Stray Kids and say one is better than the other. They both have their own styles and they both excel at those styles. I watch many other groups and appreciate their own uniqueness as well. I have been listening to Stray Kids Lalalala a lot (that was almost a tongue twister!)
Am 38 and love love love kpop bts and stray kids are my absolute favs but do love alot more then just them . Also your very right they are 2 completely different groups and both amazing ❤
I am so glad that other people have brought this up. As a Stay I am grateful for the Army’s here who are being so kind! One thing that was uncomfortable was the comparing of two very incredible groups. BTS in wonderful and they deserve the praise. So does Stray Kids. Asking which is better than the other creates unnecessary arguments between fandoms and takes away from what we’re here for. The music and the idols whom create it. There’s no comparing because they are both unique and the best in their craft.
Correct! BTS will forever be my favorite group! And I will wait for them to return! Stray kids are great, I like them a lot.. And two groups are extremely different! I don't like when people compare them…
@@ekaterinalukarova4658 I agree! I can appreciate the hard work and legacy of BTS as well as appreciate the hard work and discography of Stray Kids. Very different groups, both incredibly talented and both groups just trying to bring us the best of their music! We should all enjoy and celebrate their differences and their hard work!!
Behind every stray kids masterpiece is their producing group 3 Racha witch consists of Bang Chan, Changbin and Han Fun fact they have received best creator award at the 2023 Asia Artist Awards!!! So proud of them
Finally a reaction to Stray Kids! Loved it. They are a self produced group, 3 of them are the producing team and they are called 3RACHA (some of the most credited artists in the kpop industry), but nowadays all of the members take parts on producing and writing. Bang Chan is the leader (short red hair on Back Door), he chose the members by himself and is the one who creates their beats and most of their arrengments, he's a genius. There are a lot of behind the scenes footages of them recording, I'd recommend the ones titled 'Stray Kids [INTRO "★★★★★ (5-STAR)"] Part 3 : Recording' and '3RACHA being the geniuses behind Stray Kids'. Some less edgy songs of theirs I'd recommend are: Chill, Cover Me and Social Path (the last one is a japanese track with LiSA composed by Bang Chan and where he tells the story of his life until Stray Kids). Hope to see more!
It'll never not be funny to me everyone asking wich city S-Class MV was shooted at just to immediately be answered by Changbin's "This is Seul City" line lmao
Maniac is actually a pretty deep song. It’s a whole thing about showing who you are not masking. God’s menu is how their discography has something for everyone. Most of stray kids songs have a double meaning if you pay attention to the lyrics. A lot of meaning is glossed over by hype but it’s still there.
YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO LALALALA, MEGAVERSE AND SIDE EFFECTS also, 3racha (bangchan, changbin and han) are heavily invloved with the making of skz songs. they write lyrics, do the song guides and make the soundtracks. theres also danceracha (lee know/lino/minho, hyunjin and felix) who are the main dancers. idk if they make the choreo or have any involvement with it but i think they do. and theres vocalracha (seungmin and I.N/jeongin), they are the main singers of the group👍👍if u want more information then i reccomend looking up a skz guide (as in guide to stanning the group and getting to know them) about solo songs, every member has made their own song more than once. you can find them mostly on the album Replay. the ones youve reacted to here are very hype sounding and some songs that sound sad and are sad are Silent Cry, Lonely St, Voices and a lot more
14:24 theres absolutely loads because they indeed produce their own music! There is "5 star intro part 3" and one of the more latest ones is "Rockstar intro part 2". They take you through the process of recording their latest (self-directed!) albums. 19:30 they have gone through so much music. As in the title, you watched their top songs which are all title tracks and are intense. There's a lot more depth in the other tracks of each of their albums. Since they all participate in songwriting their lyrics can get real deep. Here are some suggestions: Secret Secret Sorry I Love You Lost Me (Japanese track) Cover Me Leave
Auque como "productor" no obtuvo mucho del sonido de SKZ. Es una lastima, sabiendo lo mucho que se esfuerzan 3racha en la producción de su música y de tener un color particular en su sonido. Talvez más adelante, dejando sus prejuicios de lados, pueda escuchar y no solo leer más atentamente a SKZ y otros grupos kpop
The group is self produced by 3 members in the group, Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han. They call themselves 3Racha and are actually a hip hop/rap group themselves. Thats why you see a lot of hip hop influence in stray kids. But stray kids is also very talented in their vocals alongside their rap and dance. They are truly a spectacle.
I love Stray Kids so much ! They produce their own songs and there are many behind the scenes not only for their mv, but for their production process like behind the scenes 5 Star one of their most recent albums (recording scene and production) , they have really worked hard and you should check more of them. And also should check out an intro guide to stray kids, they show you more about their personal careers and individual selfs.
Hey man, as a Kpop multi fan for 4yrs and a BTS ARMY for 5yrs. I'll let ya know, that no kpop group is "better" than each other. People have their preferences, that's all. But we don't pit groups like that between each other. I understand you probably didn't mean anything by it. But the title will draw the anti's, for either BTS or SKZ. The people who do pit groups against one another. Which for us Kpop fans, who just love the music as a whole, don't appreciate them.
Well said. I've never understood the whole my group is the best or so and so is trash, no it's all about preference. I'm just sick of everything being a competition, just enjoy the music.
It has been my experience that there has always been competition in music, but I never saw so much toxicity in fandoms until I came to Kpop. When I was younger growing up in the USA, it was Backstreet Boys vs NSYNC. I never felt like loving one group meant you had to hate the other. I never had to declare I was a multi-stan in the US because it was just assumed you listened to multiple people. There are always rivalries, but we should be able to talk about the music and compare our favorites without fear of drawing in haters.
@@angiee1603 I remember the whole BSB vs. NSYNC. I preferred NSYNC but I listened to both groups and never felt like I had to choose 1 over the other. I remember them trying to pit Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera against each other too.
As an multi Stan I understand you. I’m an blink and an stay so when I heard blinks were hating on straykids for winning an award that wasn’t even that big I was heartbroken
Just a heads up, never initiate a fanwar. Comparing any two groups beyond “hey this video kind of reminds me of this” is going to start a fight. Both BTS and Straykids have their own style, their own choreography, their own histories and strengths. Comparing them isn’t fair to either.
It's kinda sad that the kpop community is so volatile. I think it's valuable to compare and contrast artists as long as you give respectful opinions, not just hate. But ur right to warn him because even things that seem small can easily cause fws. But like at the end when he basically said "bts set the bar for kpop and skz expanded on it", that was plain wrong. I think he's just new to kpop and doesn't realize the longer history of the industry and how influential many other artists were for establishing the sound of kpop.
Miroh is one of my fav songs. Especially when they preformed it on BST Hyde park in July 2024. The energy of this song. The lyrics. This song is masterpiece.
I’m old and know nothing about K-pop but stray kids came up on my feed and as a violinist and long time music lover of a variety of good music I KNOW GREAT WHEN I HEAR AND SEE IT!
Just to clear it up for you: 3Racha is SKZ’’s producing team, made up of 3 of their own members, Bang Chan (the leader of the group and 3Racha itself), Changbin and Han. Changbin and Han are the main rappers of the group, and whilst you’d think they only covered the rap side, they have written songs (with both the rest of 3Racha and by themselves) that are also very vocally heavy (and Han also does many of the high notes in SKZ). Bang Chan is currently the 3rd most credited K-pop artist. Let that sink in for a second because he only debuted almost 6 years ago. Chan himself has arranged most (if not all) of SKZ’s songs (but working w other producers asw). Now what about the other 5 members (Lee Know, Hyunjin, Felix, Seungmin, I.N) ? Well, they’ve done some writing and producing as well. The ‘unit’ songs are when the members break off into mini groups and write a song and the products turn out amazing (Surfin, Taste, Cant’s Stop, Waiting for Us, Wow, Muddy Water, 3Racha, Gone Away, Red lights, My Universe and We Go are some examples ). The SKZ-replay album is full of the member’s solo songs (and a few duos) and they all had a hand in producing those songs themselves. And some of them have written songs for the whole group as well, FNF was Chan and Felix, Hyunjin (with Chan) wrote Cover Me and DLMLU. Seungmin wrote Novel. Felix has also helped out with English translations (Super Bowl which was originally in Korean but ended up getting released as a full Eng song and Domino (Eng Version)).
Yes! I love when they notice Han’s talent. Felix is my bias, but objectively Han is the most complete artist of them all, in my opinion he is the best singer of the group, even when he is presented more like a rapper.
@@esmeraldaroestoff3900 EXACTLY. His voice is soo good, I love the clips of him just loudly singing because he can hit every note. He is amazing at rapping, singing, dancing, face expressions and has the perfect idol stage presence. Also he looks so good, I just can't look away from him. Right, not just that. He's hilarious and lively and makes the best jokes ever. He also can get serious and talk about deep topics I relate to. I really like the lyrics je wrote. I want him to keep feeling happy and stay healthy.
@@esmeraldaroestoff3900 i second this! My bias is Hyunjin but I get very happy when Han is recognized. He is very very talented and should be recognized more! It's crazy how he raps like that, but can reach high notes! I realized how good he is when I watched their survival show. I became a stay because of Hyunjin but I stayed for Hyunjin, Han, Changbin, Chan, and all of them really!
On another note, Han is my favorite solo artist of the group (not a formal solo debut) but damn, his music and lyrics are deep af. He is part of the writing/producing trio in the group.
You might like these guys.Songs such as "easy", ”muddy water" (performed by 4 rappers, old school style), ”maze of memories" (all participants rap), “topline“ feat with Tiger JK (the godfather of rap, stray kids, the first group that made a collab with him).Well, in this group, the fastest rapper in k pop Changbin can listen to his collab with Millie and F.HERO (they are from Thailand, all rappers) the song “mirror mirror”
he's obviously new in kpop world. the word "better" and group names in one sentence is like a trigger for world war in kpop world. even the mere mention if other groups is a no go.
I- I.. I honestly think this is the first time I havent seen the Felix Effect in a reaction video😱 You should react to Thunderous! The music video is AMAZING!
I'm sorry i just found it so funny that at like 0:40 he was like "i wonder which city this is in" and then the song started with "THIS IS SEOUL CITY" 2 seconds later😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
All Stray Kids music is made by themselves. They have a producing team 3RACHA (Bang Chan, Changbin and Han)! They are so unic and talented! Their music is not typical k-pop it's more agressive. And their lyrics are realy deep (you should check b-sides of the albums).
hearing you compliment the production and stuff makes me smile because, as so many have already said, stray kids is majority self-produced. 3 of their members form a production unit called 3RACHA and they have been writing and producing almost all of the group's music since predebut. i hope you continue to enjoy them!!!
i love both of them,BTS and SKZ! they have their own style and i think theres no other way to compare it,cause every group have their own charms,so theyre all amazing!
Deep End -Felix Close -Han Tears and Raindrops -Seungmin Street Light -Changbin Hug Me - I.N Hate to Admit - Bang Chan Miss You - Hyunjin Limbo -Lee Know
Stray Kids are perfection! They are the only group I have flown out of state to see in my entire 57 (almost 58) years! My youngest daughter introduced our family to them back during Covid and they saved us all that year! Be careful of going down the rabbit hole that is Stray Kids-they are addictive! And such truly good people that you feel like they are your best friends. I could literally talk for hours and tell you all the nuances, the inside jokes, the relationships they have with each other and their celebrity besties… But I won’t. I shall show restraint and just say you will never regret becoming a Stay!
Yep, I'm 48 and my 21 yr old son introduced me to Stray Kids.im also a dancer and I'm trying to learn the choreo to the first song. My son and his friend are watching Stray Kids in Hyde Park, London on the 14th of July. He's going to be hot, as there's no shade in Hyde Park
Same here I’m a 55 yr old mom and my daughter introduced me to both BTS and now Straykids. They are addictive and perfection. I’m am now a fan. My daughter and I bought $500 tickets each to be in the 11th row to see Straykids in concert. I’ve been to a lot of concerts and their concert was one of the best I’ve ever seen.
Hahaha 😂❤ Your comment is everything to me!! I want to be your bestfriend!!! Hahaha ❤ Yeah, Set some boundaries. I know what you mean but when it comes to stray kids, I don't need boundary. Hahaha.😂😂
The guy with the deep voice is Felix, he made a beautiful solo song called, "Deep End" which is actually more of a ballad, it shows his incredible range between his deep tone and high pitch voice. Would love for you to react to that
My fellow stays already sent all information needed, I guess! Stray kids are self producted, they have been through LOOOTS of music genres. I'm glad you enjoyed their work!!!
If you want more from the deep voice guy, Felix, you should check out Deep End, it showcases his vocal range as it should be done in in these songs, by goving him more lines but Deep End is the best song you should consider listening to.
i laughed at your feedback after S-CLASS because they are heavily involved with producing, writing, and composing their music. 3RACHA is a subunit of SKZ that are the main producers. the rest of the group has had their hands in writing music, but these three take on a lot of projects! their stage names are BangChan, Changbin, and Han (during their underground days, they went by CB97, spearB, and J.ONE). chan specifically has the 3rd most KOMCA credits to his name. he is also the youngest, along with the ONLY 4th generation kpop idol to be featured in the top 10!
also just finished the full video! i can suggest some more songs based on what you're looking for. they have the most versatile discography i, myself, have seen. i guess i can suggest which ones were most meaningful to me. "Secret Secret" is a ballad written by Han. this song made me cry the first time i heard it. they also have a one-take performance video for this song. i relate heavily with it. if you want something more recent that just hits emotionally, "Cover Me" from their latest album "ROCKSTAR" is currently my anthem! i won't overwhelm you with anything else, so these two songs mean most to me at the moment! very well-done. i love watching producers specifically react to SKZ because i can see their songwriting process differently!
I just have to say I love Miroh, but it had no business being here on a top 5 SKZ songs, lmao I would've picked Thunderous, Side Effects or even Christmas Evel cause that was just legendary I'm excited to see Isaac discovering 3RACHA's awesomeness. When it comes to self producing groups with unique and distinctive sound Stray Kids definitely takes the cake!
@@yamilethchavez3994 I was in the fandom at that time and for me Miroh was indeed the first hit SKZ had, not as big as God's Menu, but it was well received and helped their popularity, but I still wouldn't place it on a top 5 SKZ songs, maybe if it was a top 5 songs that were milestones breakers for them I would think of Miroh?
@@yamilethchavez3994lo fue pero para que hablemos de un top 5 de canciones yo también cambiaría Miroh por Thunderous, realmente son las canciones más fuertes que han tenido
@@yamilethchavez3994 Miroh got them their first award, & yes I think it gives them more public recognitions, but I think it was before they found their style, their unique sound. After God's Menu, their musics become consistent & progressed to be as you can hear now. Older listeners might still remember Miroh, but newer ones probably only know God's Menu, Backdoor, Thunderous, Maniac, Case 143, S-Class, & other newer hits.
For more of Felix’s deep voice he opens the music video for their song Megaverse with that deep rap. Personal songs: Their group’s leader Bang Chan (a.k.a. Christopher because he grew up in Australia) is one of their 3 main song writers and producers. He is the one that makes most of their beats. He has written a few songs about his obsession with making music. One is called Red Lights with fellow member Hyunjin, who is obsessed with dancing, where they talk about their obsessions like they are addictions and prisons that they sometimes wish they could be free from but also can’t live without. Another song he wrote is kind of a spoof song called Up All Night where he talks about having constant insomnia because ideas for new songs come into his head and he has to get up and work all night. (The video for that one is silly and they are dressed as vampires, but he’s talking about real things that he struggles with.
Stray Kids "FNF" music video is a song written after the fires that happened a while back. It's very meaningful due to the fact that the leader of the group, BangChan and deep voice Felix, are Australian. Youtiful is a sweet one I recently started listening to.
Love youtiful (cant listen to it though) and it's completely in English (on of very few skz songs that are sadly). Chan just being sweet again and hopefully reaching someone who needs to hear it. I almost never cry at music but the moment the song came on I knew it was Chan and that I should make sure to brace myself.
19:30 (yes i know im late and someone else probably already commented something similar) if you mean just solo songs, they have an album on streaming services and a youtube playlist both called "skz-replay" which include original solo/duet songs and covers of other songs. if you want songs with more meaningful and deep lyrics, they have a lot of those ! these songs are in a wide range of intensity, some sounding so hype that if you never look up the lyrics, you wont know how deep the song is (ex. hellevator, social path, voices, question, silent cry). and others being very soft that it's obvious that the song is emotional (ex. cover me, fnf, mixtape oh, behind the light, grow up)
Stray kids are self produced! Their producing subunit, 3racha, were formed before the group existed. Their ‘intro’ videos show the thought process behind the music and their recording sessions. ‘5-star intro’, ‘rock-star intro’ etc. If u wanna see more ‘depth’, then I recommend checking out their latest mini-album “rock-star” that has around 7-8 songs, or any of their albums really.
I saw them in Atlanta last march. I’ve been a fan of them for 3 years. My wife and daughter got me into them. Bang Chan definitely is a hell of a writer and producer. Seeing them live was a hell of an experience. I am a stay and always will be.
Stray Kids write, compose, and arrange all of their own music. All members participate in writing these days but main production unit is 3 of them called 3racha. They also have a very heavy hand in choreography too. LaLaLaLa and Megaverse are hard new ones. Venom and Thunderous are also harder older ones that are fairly well known. Cover Me and Leave are off the latest album and are slower, vocal, and personal. Cover Me will blow you away. Social Path brings in the Rock category to the newest album. If you want to hear these members on their own, check out Skz-Replay.
"Cover Me" off of their latest album is so beautiful. It was actually written and produced (with the assistance of their leader) by one of their dancers. Truth is though, all 8 members can do everything. For the most part SKZ is produced by 3RACHA, which was a pre-debut group they formed themselves. It was later that the rest of SKZ came in and became the Stray Kids we know. I wouldn't call it a slow song, but I find "Side Effects" to be very meaningful, and the production on it is just stellar. "FNF" is another meaningful song and was written by Bang Chan (the leader and a member of 3RACHA) and Felix (the one with the really deep voice, he names dances and raps, though he has a great singing voice as well). They wrote it after the Australian bushfires of 2019/2020. They are Korean, but both were raised in Australia (Felix was born there) and it really impacted them. I enjoyed this reaction, SKZ is just so different from anything else in KPop overall (in my very biased opinion at least haha). I subbed in the hopes that you'll dive more into it because they truly do have an impressive discography. They were initially formed in 2017 with their official debut in March of 2018. I think they have something like 17ish albums? projects? idk what you would call them, everytime you turn around they're back with something else. As a fan, it's wonderful.
all 8 members have some solo songs on their album caller 'skz replay'! they are: 'connected' by the leader, bangchan 'limbo' by lee know 'doodle' by changbin 'love untold' by hyunjin 'run' by han 'deep end' by felix, the one with the deep voice 'stars and raindrops' by seungmin 'hug me' by i.n. also for more in depth songs, i would reccomend 'collison', 'red lights', '19'(my favorite song of theirs), 'mixtape #3', 'phobia', 'sorry i love you', 'cover me', and 'scars'. good luck on your STAY journey!
With almost 200 tracks, Stray Kids have just about something for everyone. Bang Chan, their leader, and 2 other members, Han and Changbin are the producing unit and have a hand in almost 99% of their tracks and beats. Not bad for a bunch of guys who avg 25 years old. They can all sing, dance, rap, and write music. It's refreshing that their company lets them make most of their creative choices. As someone who appreciates all music and has walked this planet for over 5 decades, Stray Kids is everything for me. We don't love comparisons. Apples and oranges. BTS will always have my respect, but Stray Kids is my now. Deep voice guy is Felix our sunshine. He has Deep End, his solo song on SKZ Replay released in 2022.
Thank you for reacting to Stray Kids. For a small example of “deeper” songs I recommend Cover Me, Secret Secret and anything else you’d like to listen to (I personally enjoy all of their music). Stray Kids are amazing producers, lyricists, singers, rappers, dancers, and artists, and they have fantastic stage presence (I saw them live). Their songs are unmistakably “Stray Kids”, and the media credited them for creating a new genre that is unique to them called “mala taste” (from the Chinese numbing soup which combines many flavors). Since they produce their own songs they like to experiment, so you will find many different genres in their music. They are also very creative, as you noticed, and I am always amazed at how innovative and prolific they are. Looking forward to more Stray Kids’ reactions.
The deep voice guy is called Felix. He is not the member who write songs so often, but there is a solo song he wrote and composed called ‘Deep End’ where you can enjoy his tone of voice fully, not only deep ass voice but his falsetto as well. Enjoy!!
You gotta look up 3racha they’re the producing group in Stray Kids. They have a couple songs just them (Bang Chan, Changbin, and HAN.) the song called 3racha is a banger.
3RACHA consisted of 3 members of the group. they have writing, producing and/or arranging credits on all of their songs except “road not taken”. their message has always been to be unapologetically different and proudly stand out from the crowd. i heard a saying that “kpop isn’t the genre of music but just the industry’s name”. Stray Kids are put under the ‘kpop’ blanket but their discography delves into so much more than pop, such as edm/dubstep, pop rock, etc. overall, would recommend thunderous, megaverse, venom, and so much more.
the intros to the albums on youtube are good for a glimpse at the behind the scenes recording studio sessions. ‘SKZ-Replay’ (album) & SKZ-Player (youtube) is what you’re looking for if you want to see more solo/unit songs. Felix is the man with the deep voice. ‘deep end’ is a ballad that showcases his range well. it is a solo song. my personal favorites right now are Charmer, Slump, Super Bowl, Mixtape: Time Out, Alien (HAN), Red Lights (Bangchan, Hyunjin), Taste (Felix, Lee Know, Hyunjin), and the whole ROCK-Star album lol
the guys with the deep voice is called Felix and he's done a song with one the members as in a duo called ''because'' and for the behind the scenes, you can check them out just by typing the name of the song and behind the scenes. They film the entire process of filming their MVs.
People like you who just enjoy and appreciate everything about these groups, without the judgement of it being Kpop, make me so happy. I genuinely love seeing people enjoy the music and the talent rather than go into it talking about how they don’t like Kpop the whole time
Thank you for checking out Stray Kids. I'm sure you've been sent so many requests and told how they are self produced and all that great stuff. If you really get into their music, you'll start to realize that even their hype stuff has more meaning than you might give credit for on first pass. That said, every album they do an intro video to explain their music and it can some some of the recording process too. MVs have behind the scenes and their latest album's title track had a little documentary style video done on its production. Chan, the leader and the guy who creates the beats, for a few years did weekly lives where he also explained their music so depending on what your interested in, there is lots of content. These guys are stylistic different from BTS and don't see themselves as making music for everyone but rather prefer to focus on making what they love and telling the stories they want to tell and doing it at their own pace. It think that is why fans love them. Thanks again!
they do have some behind the scenes of their album making (recording, producing, dance practicing), they are usually titled stray kids intro, we also see them producing in their other content, one of the members (bangchan) made a song on a live even
Basically all kpop groups have videos that show the behind the scenes of their music videos. They also have videos of them recording the vocals in the recording studios.
Stray kids has their own music style and you can't really compare it to any other group. We just appreciate each group. Also majority of their music has deep and meaningful lyrics including the songs you reacted to here. Maybe if you go through the lyrics again, you may see that. But of course their discography is huge and they have tons of slower and more obvious deep seeming songs. I'm sure they are covered in other comments. There are behind the scenes videos of them recording, practicing etc, and the stray kids INTRO videos are very informative. They do them for each album and break down the meaning behind each song. Example is Go live intro /Oddinary Intro. Hope you check that out.
Uuuuh... As a stay I must say tho... Stray Kids is pretty Standard kpop like Ateez and others? The reason I'm not a BTS fan is cuz they don't do classic kpop and kinda do their own thing. So interesting tho to see people think differently about it...
first of all hello and welcome to the stray kids world , you asked something with depth i would recomend 3rd eye,levanter, secret secret, hellevator, slump much more emotional and personal songs also would recommend heros soup, voices, cover me , silent cry, streetlight (changbin solo).these are some stray kids has a handfull of emotional deep songs. i would also love to see your reaction to tortoise and the hare which isnt a emotional song but its really unique for me thank you and welcome!
I already need to see your reactions to so many other Stray Kids songs! To answer your question about production, they do it all themselves! The production members are Bang Chan (the leader who handpicked all the members himself), Changbin and Han (main rappers). They have some album recording videos on the Stray Kids channel! Definitely worth a watch as it shows a bit more of their humour, how they mesh and the trust and understanding they have as a group. They have also showed song progression on live streams before and made songs from scratch in an hour, which shows in more detail their process (which you can find clips of on TH-cam). Over the last few albums, more of the members have been getting involved, writing and producing as well. (Hyunjin wrote and produced Cover Me on their latest album which is a ballad style song). You said you wanted to see more of their songs that have a deeper meaning, so I have listed some below including the meanings, take your pick, 'Silent Cry' - struggles of being stuck in a cycle of pretending to be okay and trying to appear strong when you are really not 'Social Path' - pursuing dreams and individuality in a world that often discourages or rejects those who deviate from societal norms. 'Slump', - feeling stuck in a bad cycle but still finding resilience and determination to keep pushing forward despite the odds 'Sorry, I love you', - you have feelings for a friend and struggle to admit your feelings in case it ruins your relationship 'Leave' - feeling heartbroken after a break up and not yet being over them 'Cover Me', - feelings of loneliness and the desire for comfort and support 'Mixtape:OH' - complicated feelings that come with falling in love for the first time '#LoveStay' - a song for the fans about how they can face any challenges because STAY are behind them 'Winter Falls' - long lasting feelings after a breakup that don't seem to change like the seasons do For more of Stray Kids unique sound, I would recommend 'Venom' or 'Hall of Fame' because they feel so unlike other genres. Felix is the member with the deeper voice, he tends to leave his mark on most songs, for more of his deep voice I would recommend 'Megaverse' , it's another punching powerful song. He also has a solo song called 'Deep end' which shows his duality as well as his vocal range (which is mental). I have so much more I could say about the members and songs, but I'll restrain as I'm sure you will see the more you get into the Stray Kids rabbit hole.
Stray Kids produce all of their music, they have written and created all of their songs. one song that I think is super super underrated has to be The Sound. It is just such an amazing song, same as All In. Those two songs I felt are just incredible. Also checkout their new album Rock-Star, you would love it! These boys are very unique and special, thankyou to Army to recommending Stray kids. I think we may have a new STAYYY!! HOODIE HOODIE NEGA SHIM TOGA SHI BOOGIE BOOGIE IPON COCKCO DANCE GROOVY GROOVY!! 💖💖
Oh man. The serious stuff? Well for one, their pre-debut track *Hellevator*. It is both a bop and the lyrics will hit you right in the feels. Its about the trials of training and trying to debut. Secret Secret (written by Han, bring tissues) Silent Cry (the members' response to Secret Secret) Streetlight (solo by Changbin)😢 I Hate to Admit (solo by Bang Chan)😢 Volcano; Run; Alien (solos by Han) Cover Me 💖😭 (hello big vocals) Slump Voices Scars Deep End (Felix solo, yes really) Mirror Chronosaurus M.I.A Social Path is a bop, but the lyrics are 1000% raw. Levanter 19 Gone Away (is a beautiful badass unit song) Sunshine Another Day
A great song to give you an idea of what Stray Kids can do is the Kingdom cover performance of "I'll Be Your Man". Also, they have several One Take performances that showcase their vocal abilities without all the hype.
You can not sit still listening to these guys; foot starts tapping, then head bops, shoulders grooving, before you know it you're up dancing your a$$ off! Love these guys, so talented!
If you go to Stray Kids TH-cam channel, you can go to the INTRO vids and it shows the behind the scenes recording and making of the newest albums and specific songs. You get to see 3RACHA producing and guiding the other guys in the recording process, it’s all really cool to watch!
for their deep songs: silent cry, deep end (felix), hate to admit (bang chan), red light (it has a sexy concept but the song itself is talking about obsession in general and losing yourself to your obsessions), hold on (not super deep but it is about pets and the love that owners have for them, i may have cried reading these lyrics). There's actually a ton ngl, most of their non-title track songs have deep meanings. To get more in-depth explanations about each song in the album, they have intros for every album. You can search for like 5-star intro or rockstar intro and they go through and explain each song. those also give some insight in the production process.
Oh a good deep song that i haven't seen anyone mention is Streetlight its by Changbin who is one of their main rappers but its a beautiful and do song. You should definitely check that out.
im a STAY and there's 8 members in Stray Kids (Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin, I.N/ Jeongin) but was 9 before Kim Woojin left. They dont have producers they write and produce their music themselves (apart from HEYDAY) and 3RACHA (Bang Chan, Changbin and Han) are the main production team and for some albums like ROCK-STAR and 5-STAR you can see them record and produce their music. They have loadss of personal songs including some recent ones like Stray Kids, Runners etc but some less recent ones include Hellevator, NOT!, I Am Who, 19, Young Wings, Sunshine, SLUMP, Voices, My Pace, Sorry I Love You, Secret Secret, Cover Me, i hate to admit, Neverending Story , Scars, Deep End and like loads more. AND WISH ALL THE BEST FOR LEE KNOW WE WILL MISS YOU SM. SARANGHAEO LEE LEE KNOW😭🫶🏻
Wanna recommend a song for next time?
Join the Because Isaac DISCORD: discord.gg/K8rV3AXuMm
Please check LaLaLaLa, and Megaverse. And a softer one, Cover me
@@LindavanderVeen I agree, their new album (thats where these songs are from) is an absolute rager and those three hold my entire being
@@LindavanderVeen whole album is gold
@@LindavanderVeen yes definitely and also thunderous.
Thunderous, Case143, Side Effect, Venom, Freeze, Muddy Water, Red Light, Item, Hall of Fame, Megaverse, Social Path, Domino
For ballad, try Secret Secret, Waiting for Us, Cover Me, Winterfalls, Silent Cry, Sorry I Love you
Stray kids write and produce 99.5% of their music. You can the album intros for their last 2 albums; 5 STAR and Rock Star to see their thought process going into each song on the albums and snippets of the recording sessions directed by 3RACHA (the main production team in the group). As for more personal songs or ballads there are quite a few in their discography for example 'Sorry I Love You', Secret Secret, Winter Falls, Cover Me, Levanter.
I’d also add Voices, Hellavator, and My Pace to that list for their message and depth (but not necessarily ballads)
@Tomtom12654 I totally agree. There are so many options.
@@IrieStay yes!
I think slump would also be a good recommendation for a more personal song as well
Yess! I'll also add 'Neverending Story' cause the gem is so underrated!
How this guy went 4 videos without noticing it Felix’s voice is kinda incredible
Check 17:51
@@jesussavedme4975 when he said "God´s Menu" i think that since i´m a stay my instict went like: "ITS NOW, COOKIN LIKE A CHEF, NOW HES GONNA KNOW OUR FELIX POTENCIAL"
And seeing this comment says it all
For someone that quickly noticed and loved RM's deep voice, I can't believe it took God's menu for him to notice Felix's 😂😂.
He said "does he have solo stuff" meanwhile Felix is going hard on every song
I wonder if he thought it was editing. But yea... I was like... Nothing?! lol
Add this to that compilation of “what city is this?” “THIS IS SEOUL”
YEOGI SEOUL ♫ ("Literal" translation is "Seoul is here")
Ikr, this guy is the fourth person to ask now? Something like thar😂
@@Stay4ever305 idk if the mv was intentionally made to raise that question but seeing people keep asking it is hilarious 🤣
Lmaonhonestky my favorite part of people reacting to s-calss 😂😂
I am 71 and listen to a lot of kpop. BTS and Stray Kidz are both sing in Korean and English but thats about it as far as the similarity goes. I dont compare them because their style is different but both great groups.
71 here too and love Stray Kids! They are their own genre...the rest just don't measure up.
Yep! I am a stay. Not so BTS but they are also amazing!! Both group is definitely a MUST to listen to!
I’m 62 and enjoy Stray Kids immensely, such talent. Makes all the American boy bands so lame.
I'm 60 and SKZ blow me away!❤
What should he compare a K-pop boy band to, except another K-pop boy band 🤔 and BTS is the only one he knows.
71 is old enough to know how comparisons work.
SKZ are the founders of the third type of K-Pop called Mala-Tang (Mala-Taste) after the release of the hit "God's menu". Before SKZ, there were two main directions in K-Pop: Sweet and Salty. "Mala" means something like "pleasant spice", "Tang" literally means "soup".
As for deep songs: Hellevator, Mirror, Voices, Grow Up, Insomnia, I am You, Levanter, Lonely Street, Leave, Cover Me, Phobia, Ex, Scars, Slump, etc etc etc. there’s a lot
Solos/duets/units:
Bangchan: I hate to admit
Lee Know: Limbo
Changbin: Streetlight
Hyunjin: Lost Star, contradicting
Han: alien, volcano, miserable, happy, I got it
Felix: Deep end
Seungmin: Hold On, Stars and Raindrops
I.N: Hug me, Maknae on Top
Han + Lee Know: want so bad
Bangchan + I.N: Black Hole
Hyunjin+ I.N: untitled
Changbin + Felix: Because
Changbin + Seungmin: Piece of a Puzzle
There are lots of unit songs, but other standouts are Waiting for Us, Muddy Water, Red Lights, Surfin’, Gone Away, Snain, 3racha, Taste, Can’t Stop.
Yeah… they have a 190+ song discography, and they write pretty much everything. Produce most of it,l and arrange some of it.
I would pick an album and do a whole listen. Rock-star was their last one.
Yessss listen to rockstar all the way through. that album gives such whiplash its amazing. You go from partying durying comflex only to cry your soul out during cover me and then just have that lingering sad during leave and then youre back to partying. Its great
I wish I could pin this comment lol it’s got such good recs
@@thylionheart I’m glad it’s approved!
Slump made me cry a lot, I love this song! And it has an English version!!
@@diana_moshkovskyto be fair, what is so great about their albums is that they are their own little worlds and I cannot stress enough how fun it is for all the whiplash to be actually a full set meal thats just ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Stray Kids write and produce 99% of their music. Three of their members Changbin (0:52), Bang Chan (1:09), and Han (2:04) are their producing unit 3RACHA which was the name of their hip-hop group before they debuted in Stray Kids. Bang Chan is the 3 most credited K-pop artist of all time with over 180 song credits with all the songs being released in the last 5/6 years. The two above him are Ravi from Vixx at #1 and RM at #2 making him the youngest of the top 3 as he is only 26 (a little over a month younger than the youngest BTS member Jungkook). They are the top 3 most credited 4th gen K-pop artists (BTS is 3rd Gen). Bang Chan also is the person that arranges almost all of their music. Also one of their members Lee Know (1:46) was actually a back up dancer for BTS while they were on tour before debuting as a member of Stray Kids. Unlike other groups that have fixed position as rappers, vocalists, and dancers all 8 of them can do all positions well but tend to be known for one aspect more than the others. 3Racha is the producing/rap unit, DanceRacha is the dance unit and includes Lee Know, Hyunjin (1:34), and Felix (The deep voice guy), and VocalRacha which are the two youngest members Seungmin (1:18) and I.N/ Jeongin (1:38). As for more depth you'll have to look more at their B-side tracks rather than their Title tracks though some title tracks with some amazing depth are Hellevator, I am You, and Levanter. Some amazing B-sides are Grow Up, Ex, Silent Cry, Sorry I Love You, Lonely St., Collision, Cover Me and Leave. They also have some incredible Japanese releases like Scars, DLMLU, Slump, and Social Path. I also recommend checking out Neverending Story which is a song they made for a K-drama soundtrack. But you can also find solo stuff and unit songs that have incredible depth from their SKZ-Replay which is made up of 8 solo songs and several of their solo/unit songs from SKZ-Record or SKZ-Player. Not all of SKZ-Record or SKZ-Player songs were released on SKZ-Replay and they are constantly creating more for both of those. Some of my favorites are Volcano by Han, Streetlight by Changbin, Hate to Admit by Bang Chan, Contradicting by Hyunjin, Deep End by Felix, Stars and Raindrops by Seungmin, Alien by Han, Because by Changbin and Felix, Piece by Changbin and Seungmin, and Close by Han.
Спасибо вам за ответ!
Я начинающий фанат и многое узнал из выше написанного.
Всех благ ❤
Girl!!! Say no more.
You nailed it
Real stay 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Even as a stay I learned somethings new thanks
I came here to make sure this information was shared. They’re such an amazing group ❤❤❤
Well there ya go, 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you to Army who suggested Stray Kids! However, in *no* way are these boys similar to BTS. The more you listen and follow them, you'll realize how unique they truly are. There is a song for every person, because they experiment with so many different styles and genres. They refuse to change, even though they get a lot of opposition in that regard. They remain humble and consistent; I can truly say they have an almost no-skip discography.
I really dislike when people automatically compare any boy kpop group to BTS. BTS was not the first kpop group and while they may be more known than others, to automatically compare every group to them is sort of irritating, like Felix being the RM of Stray Kids...
Personally, I never got much into BTS. My daughter introduced me to kpop but my Playlist is kpop, Slipknot, In This Moment, Marilyn Manson, etc. 😂 But Stray Kids, Ateez, NCT127, and Xikers are my main, but the fandoms are toxic and each group may have influences, but comparing groups to BTS is just not right, IMO. Then again, I am older and have old school thinking.
Agreed. I think if you're going to compare groups I think Stray Kids and Ateez are more similar, though still have pretty distinct sounds.
@@rainbowgoth1566I think you just described my playlist (though I'm trying to get my daughter into kpop, not the other way around).😂. Definitely In this Moment, Pretty Little Reckless, Slipknot, Disturbed, Manson, etc in there, but mostly ATEEZ then Stray Kids, Monsta X, some Xikers, etc. My music tends towards harder stuff, so these groups definitely tick the box.
@elizabethwood5658 lol that's funny. I'm a mosh pit Mimi. I love Ateez and their harder stuff. Also, it doesn't hurt that some of these guys are fine AF...
For me, the only songs that are really skippable in stray kids are when they do a Japanese song and then they do a Korean version or vice versa. I usually like the original best. So if it’s not the original, I skip. So that’s basically saying no song of theirs is actually skippable to me. Lol.😂 OR if I’m really really in the mood for some of their fast paced music and one of their slow songs comes on then I skip it because I’m at the mood for megaverse or some thing. Lol but it’s not because I don’t like the song it’s just because I’m not in the mood for it but usually if I’m listening to their soft stuff and megaverse or something like that comes on I can’t skip it because I’m still obsessed with that song as well. Lol!
I am a HUGE bts fan and only very recently looked into stray kids and now I’m OBSESSED. Stray Kids is truly the first group I’ve listened to that I agree when ppl say they aren’t “kpop”. Straykids is practically their own genre..I listen to all kinds of music and I’ve just never heard anything like them. They really are “special” 😂
And I honestly think Bangchan has a HUGE role into why they are so unique. The music they make and produce is just on another level.
I read the "they really are special" when the song said "we're special ✨"
❤
Same, I totally agree. And when it comes to rap, they're at the top of the industry
16:06 Bangtan has better dance but Stray Kids has better rap.
When that “flashy flashy” (I don’t know if this is right because I just tell that what subtitle are telling me) I’m always understanding “who got Bangchan” in s-class
Aa a reviewer, Lyricist, music producer, or whatever, to check "depth" in Stray Kids is a whole thing. The deal is to know what they're saying in an intricate korean language Level. Saying "depth" as in more introspective songs like ballads / chill songs, they have some. But their core is a hip rop prodution unit, so you'll see the kind of depth these guys can bring in their lyrics... it's a whole other level, really. They have a lot of puzzly jokes, puns, wordplay in general, they're really creative and genius in a way. I'm always surprised by them since I've started listening to kpop. Stray Kids brought me the pure musical genius juice in all areas: hype, balad, visual, dance, lyrics.
Artistically they're all aces.
If you keep reacting to Stray Kids you will come to realize they are their own genre.
Yes, agree
I wish these reactors will stop comparing them to BTS just because they are the only group they know or they are one of the biggest names right now. Know what? I WOULD LOVE FOR REACTORS TO STOP COMPARING THEM TO BTS. PERIOD. Start just listening and commenting on what you hear without having to result to ANY comparison. SKZ created their own genre because they don't want to be compared to anyone. They wanted to pave their own way and be known as STRAY KIDS, not some band following the footsteps of others. They are grateful to the groups that went before them, but they are their own name and people should acknowledge that. Comparing them to any group or singer out there is not honoring their wishes to be known as just SKZ. So, LISTEN WELL and just share your thoughts on how you feel about their music, their production (music or video) and their performance without mentioning other groups anywhere in your comment. Thank you very much.
@@alxndrrcn completely agree and couldn’t have said it better
@@alxndrrcn totally agree, I was a bit annoyed that he kept mentioning BTS stuff like, respect to BTS as a band cause if they got where they got is cause they have to be good but both bands are not similar in absolutely nothing more than their origin being KPOP.
Different genres
Different visuals
Different vocals and rap styles
Different creative direction, production, etc
Like, whoever know BTS and SKZ (and whoever doesn't too) would never relate to RM to Felix, they are probably 2 of the most different people ever in every possible way to be compared, in my opinion.
I know the guy had no bad intentions so I'm not here to throw hate at the reactior but I want to totally agree with you, it would be simple better if reactors would focus on the actual band and not compare to the only one other thing they know that they think is similar but is not, cause for those who understand a bit is like comparing Taylor Swift to Slipknot.
Anyway I'm grateful on the sense that some people are opening their horizons and giving a chance to different kind of music :)
@@AniquiladoraS4 Right? BTS is BTS. SKZ is SKZ. No comparison should be done.
He did it (RM to Felix comparison) just 'cause both boys have deep voices when, it is deeper than that. I respect RM as a rapper and individual, but Felix is so much more than his deep voice. His voice adds more color to every song and I love how 3racha makes it a point to highlight and utilize it-and utilize it well, they did.
The colors of both bands' music are different, unique and good in their own way. It's like painting. Every painter have unique brush strokes and use colors very differently. That's why you step back to appreciate the whole picture and see how different every painting is. People should step back to see how different the picture SKZ is painting. Reactors should, no matter which band they are listening to, just enjoy the music and bask on the colors they are trying to paint and convey with their voices.
I am 66 years old. I mostly listen to K-Pop. I don't really compare BTS to Stray Kids and say one is better than the other. They both have their own styles and they both excel at those styles. I watch many other groups and appreciate their own uniqueness as well. I have been listening to Stray Kids Lalalala a lot (that was almost a tongue twister!)
We should be friends. I am 59, and I am the self-appointed godmother of Stray Kids😅
Здорово!
Мне 42 года и только месяц назад начала слушать Stray Kids. Вы меня поддержали!
Am 38 and love love love kpop bts and stray kids are my absolute favs but do love alot more then just them . Also your very right they are 2 completely different groups and both amazing ❤
I’m 61, my wife is 50 and we’re die-hard Stays.
Omg skz moms!!! So school 😭
I am so glad that other people have brought this up. As a Stay I am grateful for the Army’s here who are being so kind! One thing that was uncomfortable was the comparing of two very incredible groups. BTS in wonderful and they deserve the praise. So does Stray Kids. Asking which is better than the other creates unnecessary arguments between fandoms and takes away from what we’re here for. The music and the idols whom create it.
There’s no comparing because they are both unique and the best in their craft.
Correct! BTS will forever be my favorite group! And I will wait for them to return! Stray kids are great, I like them a lot.. And two groups are extremely different! I don't like when people compare them…
@@ekaterinalukarova4658 I agree! I can appreciate the hard work and legacy of BTS as well as appreciate the hard work and discography of Stray Kids. Very different groups, both incredibly talented and both groups just trying to bring us the best of their music! We should all enjoy and celebrate their differences and their hard work!!
This!!
And if you asked StrayKids they would pick BTS cause they are Army too
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 well said!!

I was like " wait buddy its just the start , there's a lot to come"❤❤
16:13 how to start a war in 3 seconds 😂😂😂
Behind every stray kids masterpiece is their producing group 3 Racha witch consists of Bang Chan, Changbin and Han
Fun fact they have received best creator award at the 2023 Asia Artist Awards!!! So proud of them
Finally a reaction to Stray Kids! Loved it. They are a self produced group, 3 of them are the producing team and they are called 3RACHA (some of the most credited artists in the kpop industry), but nowadays all of the members take parts on producing and writing. Bang Chan is the leader (short red hair on Back Door), he chose the members by himself and is the one who creates their beats and most of their arrengments, he's a genius. There are a lot of behind the scenes footages of them recording, I'd recommend the ones titled 'Stray Kids [INTRO "★★★★★ (5-STAR)"] Part 3 : Recording' and '3RACHA being the geniuses behind Stray Kids'. Some less edgy songs of theirs I'd recommend are: Chill, Cover Me and Social Path (the last one is a japanese track with LiSA composed by Bang Chan and where he tells the story of his life until Stray Kids). Hope to see more!
👍
Thank you for that great info! I've been looking for some referrals to titles to learn more about them. I appreciate it immensely.
It'll never not be funny to me everyone asking wich city S-Class MV was shooted at just to immediately be answered by Changbin's "This is Seul City" line lmao
Maniac is actually a pretty deep song. It’s a whole thing about showing who you are not masking.
God’s menu is how their discography has something for everyone.
Most of stray kids songs have a double meaning if you pay attention to the lyrics. A lot of meaning is glossed over by hype but it’s still there.
the "nutty" music producer is their own members, which just makes it all better
Definitely
the pronunciation for Miroh is killing me😭💀
mYrOw
as soon as i heard him say it i jumped into the comments looking for this one T^T
how u say it
@@aliciarosileei meer - oh
@@Lilith-ui4xn thank you i was actually saying my row before LMAO
YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO LALALALA, MEGAVERSE AND SIDE EFFECTS
also, 3racha (bangchan, changbin and han) are heavily invloved with the making of skz songs. they write lyrics, do the song guides and make the soundtracks. theres also danceracha (lee know/lino/minho, hyunjin and felix) who are the main dancers. idk if they make the choreo or have any involvement with it but i think they do. and theres vocalracha (seungmin and I.N/jeongin), they are the main singers of the group👍👍if u want more information then i reccomend looking up a skz guide (as in guide to stanning the group and getting to know them)
about solo songs, every member has made their own song more than once. you can find them mostly on the album Replay.
the ones youve reacted to here are very hype sounding and some songs that sound sad and are sad are Silent Cry, Lonely St, Voices and a lot more
and Felix also goes by Yongbok as well
THIISSSS
I’m pretty sure danceracha are involved with making the choreo. All of the members have participated at some point i think.
Lalalala and Megaverse 🙏 please
Yeah, you think the S-class MV is insane (which it is), Megaverse is gonna blow your mind!
14:24 theres absolutely loads because they indeed produce their own music! There is "5 star intro part 3" and one of the more latest ones is "Rockstar intro part 2". They take you through the process of recording their latest (self-directed!) albums.
19:30 they have gone through so much music. As in the title, you watched their top songs which are all title tracks and are intense. There's a lot more depth in the other tracks of each of their albums. Since they all participate in songwriting their lyrics can get real deep. Here are some suggestions:
Secret Secret
Sorry I Love You
Lost Me (Japanese track)
Cover Me
Leave
I highly recommend the intros, it's so interesting to see the bts and their thought process etc. Would love to see a reaction.
Auque como "productor" no obtuvo mucho del sonido de SKZ.
Es una lastima, sabiendo lo mucho que se esfuerzan 3racha en la producción de su música y de tener un color particular en su sonido.
Talvez más adelante, dejando sus prejuicios de lados, pueda escuchar y no solo leer más atentamente a SKZ y otros grupos kpop
one of my favorite song with a deep meaning has to be scars !! their vocals are all so beautiful
Never Ending Story ❤
bro i was surprised how he wasnt shocked by felixs voice bc half the time new ppl who react to skz get the ✨felix effect✨immediatley🤣
are you kidding? I’m obsessed with Felix
The group is self produced by 3 members in the group, Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han. They call themselves 3Racha and are actually a hip hop/rap group themselves. Thats why you see a lot of hip hop influence in stray kids. But stray kids is also very talented in their vocals alongside their rap and dance. They are truly a spectacle.
I love Stray Kids so much ! They produce their own songs and there are many behind the scenes not only for their mv, but for their production process like behind the scenes 5 Star one of their most recent albums (recording scene and production) , they have really worked hard and you should check more of them. And also should check out an intro guide to stray kids, they show you more about their personal careers and individual selfs.
For the guide I'd recommend teanosugars 2023 (?) Guide.
@@alinasmith5737🎉Thankss!! I have to look that up
Hey man, as a Kpop multi fan for 4yrs and a BTS ARMY for 5yrs. I'll let ya know, that no kpop group is "better" than each other. People have their preferences, that's all. But we don't pit groups like that between each other. I understand you probably didn't mean anything by it. But the title will draw the anti's, for either BTS or SKZ. The people who do pit groups against one another. Which for us Kpop fans, who just love the music as a whole, don't appreciate them.
yeah, i get your point... i'll go ahead and change the title
Well said. I've never understood the whole my group is the best or so and so is trash, no it's all about preference. I'm just sick of everything being a competition, just enjoy the music.
It has been my experience that there has always been competition in music, but I never saw so much toxicity in fandoms until I came to Kpop. When I was younger growing up in the USA, it was Backstreet Boys vs NSYNC. I never felt like loving one group meant you had to hate the other. I never had to declare I was a multi-stan in the US because it was just assumed you listened to multiple people.
There are always rivalries, but we should be able to talk about the music and compare our favorites without fear of drawing in haters.
@@angiee1603 I remember the whole BSB vs. NSYNC. I preferred NSYNC but I listened to both groups and never felt like I had to choose 1 over the other. I remember them trying to pit Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera against each other too.
As an multi Stan I understand you. I’m an blink and an stay so when I heard blinks were hating on straykids for winning an award that wasn’t even that big I was heartbroken
Just a heads up, never initiate a fanwar. Comparing any two groups beyond “hey this video kind of reminds me of this” is going to start a fight. Both BTS and Straykids have their own style, their own choreography, their own histories and strengths. Comparing them isn’t fair to either.
yeap, I cant say which ones would be better dancers because both have totally different style in dancing etc.
I thought this exact thing when I was watching. I was like “oh shit he did not just say that” 😭🤞
LOUDERRRR
It's kinda sad that the kpop community is so volatile. I think it's valuable to compare and contrast artists as long as you give respectful opinions, not just hate. But ur right to warn him because even things that seem small can easily cause fws.
But like at the end when he basically said "bts set the bar for kpop and skz expanded on it", that was plain wrong. I think he's just new to kpop and doesn't realize the longer history of the industry and how influential many other artists were for establishing the sound of kpop.
Comparisons and contrasts are natural, it’s art and media. It’s just people are nuts and take it personally.
Miroh is one of my fav songs. Especially when they preformed it on BST Hyde park in July 2024. The energy of this song. The lyrics. This song is masterpiece.
I’m old and know nothing about K-pop but stray kids came up on my feed and as a violinist and long time music lover of a variety of good music I KNOW GREAT WHEN I HEAR AND SEE IT!
❤
Just to clear it up for you:
3Racha is SKZ’’s producing team, made up of 3 of their own members, Bang Chan (the leader of the group and 3Racha itself), Changbin and Han. Changbin and Han are the main rappers of the group, and whilst you’d think they only covered the rap side, they have written songs (with both the rest of 3Racha and by themselves) that are also very vocally heavy (and Han also does many of the high notes in SKZ). Bang Chan is currently the 3rd most credited K-pop artist. Let that sink in for a second because he only debuted almost 6 years ago. Chan himself has arranged most (if not all) of SKZ’s songs (but working w other producers asw).
Now what about the other 5 members (Lee Know, Hyunjin, Felix, Seungmin, I.N) ? Well, they’ve done some writing and producing as well. The ‘unit’ songs are when the members break off into mini groups and write a song and the products turn out amazing (Surfin, Taste, Cant’s Stop, Waiting for Us, Wow, Muddy Water, 3Racha, Gone Away, Red lights, My Universe and We Go are some examples ). The SKZ-replay album is full of the member’s solo songs (and a few duos) and they all had a hand in producing those songs themselves. And some of them have written songs for the whole group as well, FNF was Chan and Felix, Hyunjin (with Chan) wrote Cover Me and DLMLU. Seungmin wrote Novel. Felix has also helped out with English translations (Super Bowl which was originally in Korean but ended up getting released as a full Eng song and Domino (Eng Version)).
"I will not compare to..." Proceeds to do that lol
That guy with deep voice was Felix. You should definitely check his solo, Deep End. I'm sure you'll be amazed
So true
I teared up the first time I listened to it
16:05 he’s actually trying to start a war between army and stay here
7:16 YES. Thank you for noticing our ace babygirl most talented rapper and singer HANNIE BABYGIRLLL
Yes! I love when they notice Han’s talent. Felix is my bias, but objectively Han is the most complete artist of them all, in my opinion he is the best singer of the group, even when he is presented more like a rapper.
@@esmeraldaroestoff3900 EXACTLY. His voice is soo good, I love the clips of him just loudly singing because he can hit every note. He is amazing at rapping, singing, dancing, face expressions and has the perfect idol stage presence. Also he looks so good, I just can't look away from him. Right, not just that. He's hilarious and lively and makes the best jokes ever. He also can get serious and talk about deep topics I relate to. I really like the lyrics je wrote. I want him to keep feeling happy and stay healthy.
@@esmeraldaroestoff3900 i second this! My bias is Hyunjin but I get very happy when Han is recognized. He is very very talented and should be recognized more! It's crazy how he raps like that, but can reach high notes! I realized how good he is when I watched their survival show. I became a stay because of Hyunjin but I stayed for Hyunjin, Han, Changbin, Chan, and all of them really!
On another note, Han is my favorite solo artist of the group (not a formal solo debut) but damn, his music and lyrics are deep af. He is part of the writing/producing trio in the group.
Me too. It made me happy that almost every time Han showed up, he got a little smile. ❤
You might like these guys.Songs such as "easy", ”muddy water" (performed by 4 rappers, old school style), ”maze of memories" (all participants rap), “topline“ feat with Tiger JK (the godfather of rap, stray kids, the first group that made a collab with him).Well, in this group, the fastest rapper in k pop Changbin can listen to his collab with Millie and F.HERO (they are from Thailand, all rappers) the song “mirror mirror”
he's obviously new in kpop world. the word "better" and group names in one sentence is like a trigger for world war in kpop world. even the mere mention if other groups is a no go.
totally agree😂😂 lol people are triggered in the comments
I- I.. I honestly think this is the first time I havent seen the Felix Effect in a reaction video😱
You should react to Thunderous! The music video is AMAZING!
1:23 bro how did he not fall in love with seungmin's voice or his handsome face immediately
Seungmin best cool laid-back cold puppy STAA 🫰🐶
I'm sorry i just found it so funny that at like 0:40 he was like "i wonder which city this is in" and then the song started with "THIS IS SEOUL CITY" 2 seconds later😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
All Stray Kids music is made by themselves. They have a producing team 3RACHA (Bang Chan, Changbin and Han)! They are so unic and talented! Their music is not typical k-pop it's more agressive. And their lyrics are realy deep (you should check b-sides of the albums).
hearing you compliment the production and stuff makes me smile because, as so many have already said, stray kids is majority self-produced. 3 of their members form a production unit called 3RACHA and they have been writing and producing almost all of the group's music since predebut. i hope you continue to enjoy them!!!
❤
i love both of them,BTS and SKZ! they have their own style and i think theres no other way to compare it,cause every group have their own charms,so theyre all amazing!
Deep End -Felix
Close -Han
Tears and Raindrops -Seungmin
Street Light -Changbin
Hug Me - I.N
Hate to Admit - Bang Chan
Miss You - Hyunjin
Limbo -Lee Know
Stray Kids are perfection! They are the only group I have flown out of state to see in my entire 57 (almost 58) years!
My youngest daughter introduced our family to them back during Covid and they saved us all that year!
Be careful of going down the rabbit hole that is Stray Kids-they are addictive! And such truly good people that you feel like they are your best friends. I could literally talk for hours and tell you all the nuances, the inside jokes, the relationships they have with each other and their celebrity besties…
But I won’t. I shall show restraint and just say you will never regret becoming a Stay!
Yep, I'm 48 and my 21 yr old son introduced me to Stray Kids.im also a dancer and I'm trying to learn the choreo to the first song. My son and his friend are watching Stray Kids in Hyde Park, London on the 14th of July. He's going to be hot, as there's no shade in Hyde Park
Oh my god, I'm so happy to see that such a vide range of people like stray kids. They're truly something special
@@aidalles They are incredibly special, indeed!!!!
Same here I’m a 55 yr old mom and my daughter introduced me to both BTS and now Straykids. They are addictive and perfection. I’m am now a fan. My daughter and I bought $500 tickets each to be in the 11th row to see Straykids in concert. I’ve been to a lot of concerts and their concert was one of the best I’ve ever seen.
Hahaha 😂❤ Your comment is everything to me!! I want to be your bestfriend!!! Hahaha ❤ Yeah, Set some boundaries. I know what you mean but when it comes to stray kids, I don't need boundary. Hahaha.😂😂
The guy with the deep voice is Felix, he made a beautiful solo song called, "Deep End" which is actually more of a ballad, it shows his incredible range between his deep tone and high pitch voice. Would love for you to react to that
And bring tissues
This one! Yesssssss ❤
My fellow stays already sent all information needed, I guess!
Stray kids are self producted, they have been through LOOOTS of music genres.
I'm glad you enjoyed their work!!!
I am in looove with Stray Kids they do have some good deep songs I wonder if anyone else has suggested them
If you want more from the deep voice guy, Felix, you should check out Deep End, it showcases his vocal range as it should be done in in these songs, by goving him more lines but Deep End is the best song you should consider listening to.
i laughed at your feedback after S-CLASS because they are heavily involved with producing, writing, and composing their music. 3RACHA is a subunit of SKZ that are the main producers. the rest of the group has had their hands in writing music, but these three take on a lot of projects! their stage names are BangChan, Changbin, and Han (during their underground days, they went by CB97, spearB, and J.ONE). chan specifically has the 3rd most KOMCA credits to his name. he is also the youngest, along with the ONLY 4th generation kpop idol to be featured in the top 10!
also just finished the full video! i can suggest some more songs based on what you're looking for. they have the most versatile discography i, myself, have seen. i guess i can suggest which ones were most meaningful to me. "Secret Secret" is a ballad written by Han. this song made me cry the first time i heard it. they also have a one-take performance video for this song. i relate heavily with it. if you want something more recent that just hits emotionally, "Cover Me" from their latest album "ROCKSTAR" is currently my anthem! i won't overwhelm you with anything else, so these two songs mean most to me at the moment! very well-done. i love watching producers specifically react to SKZ because i can see their songwriting process differently!
I just have to say I love Miroh, but it had no business being here on a top 5 SKZ songs, lmao
I would've picked Thunderous, Side Effects or even Christmas Evel cause that was just legendary
I'm excited to see Isaac discovering 3RACHA's awesomeness. When it comes to self producing groups with unique and distinctive sound Stray Kids definitely takes the cake!
It has every right to be there. To this day it is my fav tt of theirs and I don't even like dance music.
Yo soy ARMY ¿pero MIROH no fue como el primer hit de SKZ (como BTS con I Need U)?
O al menos esa es mi percepción como público general 👀
@@yamilethchavez3994 I was in the fandom at that time and for me Miroh was indeed the first hit SKZ had, not as big as God's Menu, but it was well received and helped their popularity, but I still wouldn't place it on a top 5 SKZ songs, maybe if it was a top 5 songs that were milestones breakers for them I would think of Miroh?
@@yamilethchavez3994lo fue pero para que hablemos de un top 5 de canciones yo también cambiaría Miroh por Thunderous, realmente son las canciones más fuertes que han tenido
@@yamilethchavez3994 Miroh got them their first award, & yes I think it gives them more public recognitions, but I think it was before they found their style, their unique sound. After God's Menu, their musics become consistent & progressed to be as you can hear now. Older listeners might still remember Miroh, but newer ones probably only know God's Menu, Backdoor, Thunderous, Maniac, Case 143, S-Class, & other newer hits.
Not having thunderous on here is criminal
"I like this guy. He has a good energy"
To the ACE of kpop
Dude everyone's reaction..
Wow where is this
Changbin- "This is Seoul!"
Oh okay thanks man.
Always hilarious😂
For more of Felix’s deep voice he opens the music video for their song Megaverse with that deep rap. Personal songs: Their group’s leader Bang Chan (a.k.a. Christopher because he grew up in Australia) is one of their 3 main song writers and producers. He is the one that makes most of their beats. He has written a few songs about his obsession with making music. One is called Red Lights with fellow member Hyunjin, who is obsessed with dancing, where they talk about their obsessions like they are addictions and prisons that they sometimes wish they could be free from but also can’t live without. Another song he wrote is kind of a spoof song called Up All Night where he talks about having constant insomnia because ideas for new songs come into his head and he has to get up and work all night. (The video for that one is silly and they are dressed as vampires, but he’s talking about real things that he struggles with.
Felix also has a solo called "Deep End" in SKZ Replay
Stray Kids "FNF" music video is a song written after the fires that happened a while back. It's very meaningful due to the fact that the leader of the group, BangChan and deep voice Felix, are Australian.
Youtiful is a sweet one I recently started listening to.
Love youtiful (cant listen to it though) and it's completely in English (on of very few skz songs that are sadly). Chan just being sweet again and hopefully reaching someone who needs to hear it. I almost never cry at music but the moment the song came on I knew it was Chan and that I should make sure to brace myself.
19:30 (yes i know im late and someone else probably already commented something similar) if you mean just solo songs, they have an album on streaming services and a youtube playlist both called "skz-replay" which include original solo/duet songs and covers of other songs. if you want songs with more meaningful and deep lyrics, they have a lot of those ! these songs are in a wide range of intensity, some sounding so hype that if you never look up the lyrics, you wont know how deep the song is (ex. hellevator, social path, voices, question, silent cry). and others being very soft that it's obvious that the song is emotional (ex. cover me, fnf, mixtape oh, behind the light, grow up)
2:23 I love this part of Seungmin
Unexpressive face but enjoying music by dancing while the city gets attacked 🐶🫰🤡😭
Stray kids are self produced! Their producing subunit, 3racha, were formed before the group existed. Their ‘intro’ videos show the thought process behind the music and their recording sessions. ‘5-star intro’, ‘rock-star intro’ etc.
If u wanna see more ‘depth’, then I recommend checking out their latest mini-album “rock-star” that has around 7-8 songs, or any of their albums really.
You should be careful trying to compare two k-pop groups (especially these two) if you don't want a world war 3 in your comments!!
LOLLLL
lol yeah 😂
😂😂😂 LOL
oa
Literally😂 I heard him say that and was just like oh no...
There is no one else like Stray Kids. They are all I ever need.
Same
Fun fact: alot of those "special effects" like a bit of the fire and firworks and speeding in cars stunts is real. They actually did it irl. 😆
I saw them in Atlanta last march. I’ve been a fan of them for 3 years. My wife and daughter got me into them. Bang Chan definitely is a hell of a writer and producer. Seeing them live was a hell of an experience. I am a stay and always will be.
Stray Kids write, compose, and arrange all of their own music. All members participate in writing these days but main production unit is 3 of them called 3racha. They also have a very heavy hand in choreography too. LaLaLaLa and Megaverse are hard new ones. Venom and Thunderous are also harder older ones that are fairly well known. Cover Me and Leave are off the latest album and are slower, vocal, and personal. Cover Me will blow you away. Social Path brings in the Rock category to the newest album. If you want to hear these members on their own, check out Skz-Replay.
"Cover Me" off of their latest album is so beautiful. It was actually written and produced (with the assistance of their leader) by one of their dancers. Truth is though, all 8 members can do everything.
For the most part SKZ is produced by 3RACHA, which was a pre-debut group they formed themselves. It was later that the rest of SKZ came in and became the Stray Kids we know.
I wouldn't call it a slow song, but I find "Side Effects" to be very meaningful, and the production on it is just stellar. "FNF" is another meaningful song and was written by Bang Chan (the leader and a member of 3RACHA) and Felix (the one with the really deep voice, he names dances and raps, though he has a great singing voice as well). They wrote it after the Australian bushfires of 2019/2020. They are Korean, but both were raised in Australia (Felix was born there) and it really impacted them.
I enjoyed this reaction, SKZ is just so different from anything else in KPop overall (in my very biased opinion at least haha). I subbed in the hopes that you'll dive more into it because they truly do have an impressive discography. They were initially formed in 2017 with their official debut in March of 2018. I think they have something like 17ish albums? projects? idk what you would call them, everytime you turn around they're back with something else. As a fan, it's wonderful.
all 8 members have some solo songs on their album caller 'skz replay'! they are:
'connected' by the leader, bangchan
'limbo' by lee know
'doodle' by changbin
'love untold' by hyunjin
'run' by han
'deep end' by felix, the one with the deep voice
'stars and raindrops' by seungmin
'hug me' by i.n.
also for more in depth songs, i would reccomend 'collison', 'red lights', '19'(my favorite song of theirs), 'mixtape #3', 'phobia', 'sorry i love you', 'cover me', and 'scars'.
good luck on your STAY journey!
10:13 HAN'S NOD 😭✋️ I'M CRYING HE IS SO CUTE
YESSSSS
@@tkaSKW IKR?!?! HANDSOME QUOKKA BOY AW
That beat switch at towards the end of S-Class gets me every time
With almost 200 tracks, Stray Kids have just about something for everyone. Bang Chan, their leader, and 2 other members, Han and Changbin are the producing unit and have a hand in almost 99% of their tracks and beats. Not bad for a bunch of guys who avg 25 years old. They can all sing, dance, rap, and write music. It's refreshing that their company lets them make most of their creative choices.
As someone who appreciates all music and has walked this planet for over 5 decades, Stray Kids is everything for me.
We don't love comparisons. Apples and oranges. BTS will always have my respect, but Stray Kids is my now.
Deep voice guy is Felix our sunshine. He has Deep End, his solo song on SKZ Replay released in 2022.
Thank you for reacting to Stray Kids. For a small example of “deeper” songs I recommend Cover Me, Secret Secret and anything else you’d like to listen to (I personally enjoy all of their music). Stray Kids are amazing producers, lyricists, singers, rappers, dancers, and artists, and they have fantastic stage presence (I saw them live). Their songs are unmistakably “Stray Kids”, and the media credited them for creating a new genre that is unique to them called “mala taste” (from the Chinese numbing soup which combines many flavors). Since they produce their own songs they like to experiment, so you will find many different genres in their music. They are also very creative, as you noticed, and I am always amazed at how innovative and prolific they are. Looking forward to more Stray Kids’ reactions.
The deep voice guy is called Felix. He is not the member who write songs so often, but there is a solo song he wrote and composed called ‘Deep End’ where you can enjoy his tone of voice fully, not only deep ass voice but his falsetto as well. Enjoy!!
17:51 The felix effect is real lol 😭
You gotta look up 3racha they’re the producing group in Stray Kids. They have a couple songs just them (Bang Chan, Changbin, and HAN.) the song called 3racha is a banger.
3RACHA consisted of 3 members of the group. they have writing, producing and/or arranging credits on all of their songs except “road not taken”. their message has always been to be unapologetically different and proudly stand out from the crowd. i heard a saying that “kpop isn’t the genre of music but just the industry’s name”. Stray Kids are put under the ‘kpop’ blanket but their discography delves into so much more than pop, such as edm/dubstep, pop rock, etc.
overall, would recommend thunderous, megaverse, venom, and so much more.
the intros to the albums on youtube are good for a glimpse at the behind the scenes recording studio sessions.
‘SKZ-Replay’ (album) & SKZ-Player (youtube) is what you’re looking for if you want to see more solo/unit songs.
Felix is the man with the deep voice. ‘deep end’ is a ballad that showcases his range well. it is a solo song.
my personal favorites right now are Charmer, Slump, Super Bowl, Mixtape: Time Out, Alien (HAN), Red Lights (Bangchan, Hyunjin), Taste (Felix, Lee Know, Hyunjin), and the whole ROCK-Star album lol
Late to the party but "deep voice guy" felix has his own song called deep end and his vocal range is insane
the guys with the deep voice is called Felix and he's done a song with one the members as in a duo called ''because'' and for the behind the scenes, you can check them out just by typing the name of the song and behind the scenes. They film the entire process of filming their MVs.
Him:"Go back to the deep voice dude!" me:"YAHHH HE LIKES GELIX YOUR MY BESTIE NOW!!"
So y'all know I'm meant Felix it auto corrected for some reason
"I wanna here more of this guys voice!" We all do man
People like you who just enjoy and appreciate everything about these groups, without the judgement of it being Kpop, make me so happy. I genuinely love seeing people enjoy the music and the talent rather than go into it talking about how they don’t like Kpop the whole time
Thank you for checking out Stray Kids. I'm sure you've been sent so many requests and told how they are self produced and all that great stuff. If you really get into their music, you'll start to realize that even their hype stuff has more meaning than you might give credit for on first pass. That said, every album they do an intro video to explain their music and it can some some of the recording process too. MVs have behind the scenes and their latest album's title track had a little documentary style video done on its production. Chan, the leader and the guy who creates the beats, for a few years did weekly lives where he also explained their music so depending on what your interested in, there is lots of content. These guys are stylistic different from BTS and don't see themselves as making music for everyone but rather prefer to focus on making what they love and telling the stories they want to tell and doing it at their own pace. It think that is why fans love them. Thanks again!
they do have some behind the scenes of their album making (recording, producing, dance practicing), they are usually titled stray kids intro, we also see them producing in their other content, one of the members (bangchan) made a song on a live even
Basically all kpop groups have videos that show the behind the scenes of their music videos. They also have videos of them recording the vocals in the recording studios.
Yes check out thier new album "ATE"
CHK CHK BOOM
Stray kids has their own music style and you can't really compare it to any other group. We just appreciate each group.
Also majority of their music has deep and meaningful lyrics including the songs you reacted to here. Maybe if you go through the lyrics again, you may see that. But of course their discography is huge and they have tons of slower and more obvious deep seeming songs. I'm sure they are covered in other comments.
There are behind the scenes videos of them recording, practicing etc, and the stray kids INTRO videos are very informative. They do them for each album and break down the meaning behind each song. Example is Go live intro /Oddinary Intro. Hope you check that out.
Uuuuh... As a stay I must say tho... Stray Kids is pretty Standard kpop like Ateez and others? The reason I'm not a BTS fan is cuz they don't do classic kpop and kinda do their own thing. So interesting tho to see people think differently about it...
first of all hello and welcome to the stray kids world , you asked something with depth i would recomend 3rd eye,levanter, secret secret, hellevator, slump much more emotional and personal songs also would recommend heros soup, voices, cover me , silent cry, streetlight (changbin solo).these are some stray kids has a handfull of emotional deep songs. i would also love to see your reaction to tortoise and the hare which isnt a emotional song but its really unique for me thank you and welcome!
I already need to see your reactions to so many other Stray Kids songs!
To answer your question about production, they do it all themselves! The production members are Bang Chan (the leader who handpicked all the members himself), Changbin and Han (main rappers). They have some album recording videos on the Stray Kids channel! Definitely worth a watch as it shows a bit more of their humour, how they mesh and the trust and understanding they have as a group.
They have also showed song progression on live streams before and made songs from scratch in an hour, which shows in more detail their process (which you can find clips of on TH-cam). Over the last few albums, more of the members have been getting involved, writing and producing as well. (Hyunjin wrote and produced Cover Me on their latest album which is a ballad style song).
You said you wanted to see more of their songs that have a deeper meaning, so I have listed some below including the meanings, take your pick,
'Silent Cry' - struggles of being stuck in a cycle of pretending to be okay and trying to appear strong when you are really not
'Social Path' - pursuing dreams and individuality in a world that often discourages or rejects those who deviate from societal norms.
'Slump', - feeling stuck in a bad cycle but still finding resilience and determination to keep pushing forward despite the odds
'Sorry, I love you', - you have feelings for a friend and struggle to admit your feelings in case it ruins your relationship
'Leave' - feeling heartbroken after a break up and not yet being over them
'Cover Me', - feelings of loneliness and the desire for comfort and support
'Mixtape:OH' - complicated feelings that come with falling in love for the first time
'#LoveStay' - a song for the fans about how they can face any challenges because STAY are behind them
'Winter Falls' - long lasting feelings after a breakup that don't seem to change like the seasons do
For more of Stray Kids unique sound, I would recommend 'Venom' or 'Hall of Fame' because they feel so unlike other genres.
Felix is the member with the deeper voice, he tends to leave his mark on most songs, for more of his deep voice I would recommend 'Megaverse' , it's another punching powerful song. He also has a solo song called 'Deep end' which shows his duality as well as his vocal range (which is mental).
I have so much more I could say about the members and songs, but I'll restrain as I'm sure you will see the more you get into the Stray Kids rabbit hole.
Great description of the songs and great recommendations! Hope he sees these! 🤞🤞🤞
I LOVE THE REACTION OF NON STAYS WATCHING SKZ
Stray Kids produce all of their music, they have written and created all of their songs. one song that I think is super super underrated has to be The Sound. It is just such an amazing song, same as All In. Those two songs I felt are just incredible. Also checkout their new album Rock-Star, you would love it! These boys are very unique and special, thankyou to Army to recommending Stray kids. I think we may have a new STAYYY!! HOODIE HOODIE NEGA SHIM TOGA SHI BOOGIE BOOGIE IPON COCKCO DANCE GROOVY GROOVY!! 💖💖

@@anonymouslyissafe Wonderland, halazia, i'm the one, crazy form, guerrilla
Oh man. The serious stuff?
Well for one, their pre-debut track *Hellevator*. It is both a bop and the lyrics will hit you right in the feels. Its about the trials of training and trying to debut.
Secret Secret (written by Han, bring tissues)
Silent Cry (the members' response to Secret Secret)
Streetlight (solo by Changbin)😢
I Hate to Admit (solo by Bang Chan)😢
Volcano; Run; Alien (solos by Han)
Cover Me 💖😭 (hello big vocals)
Slump
Voices
Scars
Deep End (Felix solo, yes really)
Mirror
Chronosaurus
M.I.A
Social Path is a bop, but the lyrics are 1000% raw.
Levanter
19
Gone Away (is a beautiful badass unit song)
Sunshine
Another Day
I love how we always have to confirm Deep End really is just sung by Felix haha
Great recommendations here!
Your selection is ✨immaculate✨
😊 thanks y'all!
A great song to give you an idea of what Stray Kids can do is the Kingdom cover performance of "I'll Be Your Man". Also, they have several One Take performances that showcase their vocal abilities without all the hype.
A solo song for "Deep-voice dude" (Felix) is Deep End, which is really good
You can not sit still listening to these guys; foot starts tapping, then head bops, shoulders grooving, before you know it you're up dancing your a$$ off! Love these guys, so talented!
If you go to Stray Kids TH-cam channel, you can go to the INTRO vids and it shows the behind the scenes recording and making of the newest albums and specific songs. You get to see 3RACHA producing and guiding the other guys in the recording process, it’s all really cool to watch!
for their deep songs: silent cry, deep end (felix), hate to admit (bang chan), red light (it has a sexy concept but the song itself is talking about obsession in general and losing yourself to your obsessions), hold on (not super deep but it is about pets and the love that owners have for them, i may have cried reading these lyrics). There's actually a ton ngl, most of their non-title track songs have deep meanings. To get more in-depth explanations about each song in the album, they have intros for every album. You can search for like 5-star intro or rockstar intro and they go through and explain each song. those also give some insight in the production process.
Oh a good deep song that i haven't seen anyone mention is Streetlight its by Changbin who is one of their main rappers but its a beautiful and do song. You should definitely check that out.
im a STAY and there's 8 members in Stray Kids (Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin, I.N/ Jeongin) but was 9 before Kim Woojin left. They dont have producers they write and produce their music themselves (apart from HEYDAY) and 3RACHA (Bang Chan, Changbin and Han) are the main production team and for some albums like ROCK-STAR and 5-STAR you can see them record and produce their music. They have loadss of personal songs including some recent ones like Stray Kids, Runners etc but some less recent ones include Hellevator, NOT!, I Am Who, 19, Young Wings, Sunshine, SLUMP, Voices, My Pace, Sorry I Love You, Secret Secret, Cover Me, i hate to admit, Neverending Story , Scars, Deep End and like loads more. AND WISH ALL THE BEST FOR LEE KNOW WE WILL MISS YOU SM. SARANGHAEO LEE LEE KNOW😭🫶🏻
If you want to know vocally what they are capable of, watch the First Take version of Slump.
