Not a problem dude thank you so much for that explanation because I had no idea what drill was until you just broke it down thank you very much for that do not apologize thank you
"who listening to drill in stray kids?" chan does! he's been a fan of the british hip hop scene for a long time - he shouted out skepta in a 2017 song, and when i saw stray kids perform in london in 2019 he talked a little about how much this kind of music influenced him
Despite all this, 3Racha and Stray Kids still don't get the respect and the popularity they totally deserve. But they have come to term with that and let their music speak for themselves.
@@okie6293I think they are saying that they don't get enough respect as producers not rappers. They've produced all of Stray Kids discography except for like 2 or 3 songs. They have almost 200 songs. That's super impressive for 3 guys in their early 20's.

“This could turn into a folk song within the next 20 seconds” had me howling😂😂😂 They do switch up their music so much and I love that about them. 4th gen leaders for a reason, 3Racha is underrated!
"I'm known as triple threat rap, sing, dance I can do it all" - Chan 'Runners High' Fire song by 3Racha btw. Definitely check it out. This song is off the Maxident album. Bang Chan is #3 in KPop Changbin is #11 Han is #12
One tiny detail I wanted to point out is that the bell “ching” sound at the end is reversed at the beginning of the song. So if you put it on repeat, it’s like a reset. That attention to details that ultimately don’t mean anything is what I love about 3RACHA. I love looking for those moments
That was just the top of the iceberg. There's more. There's Heyday for example or if you want something unique . The Tortoise and the Hare. Or Maze of Memories. I promise it's an experience you're not ready for.
Ok this is my favorite reaction so far 100%. There's so many videos that say "producer reacts" and then they just watch the video with minimal commentary- like I came to see you talk about the intricate stuff not just sit there and watch it. Thank you for actually pausing and talking about the components of the song!
3RACHA was a full on rap trio pre debut, but after that they focused on making songs for Stray Kids. Songs with just the three of them have since become a rare treat, and especially songs with Chan rapping. But back in 2017 (so the year before the group's debut), they released two tracks every two weeks on TH-cam and SoundCloud : one was an original song and the other a cover where they just focused on writing lyrics. They later deleted the covers, but the original songs are still on their old accounts, and there's 24 of them. 5 of those were rearranged into Stray Kids songs in their first couple of years (under the titles "Mixtape #1" to "Mixtape #5", but when they released re-recordings as 8, they recovered their original titles), but the rest are not even officially registered with KOMCA (so when people say 3RACHA have N credits, actually you need to add 20 to that number : the other 19 songs from 2017 + "Start Line", released in January 2018 as a conclusion for the pre-debut project that was 3RACHA).
I think Chan has a lot of Drill and Grime in his playlist. Chan even has a shout-out to Skepta on the early 3Racha track P.A.C.E Also this track is from Maxident and was part of a trio of songs by the "rachas" (distinct from the lines as you think of them) this, Taste by Danceracha and Can't Stop by Vocalracha.
👏🏻 Thoroughly authentic assessment and sincere appreciation of 3Racha and the actual musicianship/individual artistry of our creatively wide ranged boys Bangchan, Changbin and Han alongside the personal work they season their saucy music with! You certainly stood out from all of the other “reactors” of this track and I can’t express just how refreshing that is! 🖤 Also, please don’t apologize or feel you need to shorten the length of your opinions and expressions in regards to detail of certain sections you may have further input/insight/critique you’d like to share with us. It’s your channel, you do and be you unfiltered and unrestrained 😊
I really appreciate this comment on so many levels, thank you! 🖤 Anywhoo I just call it how I see it & SKZ & their subunits make bangers so I end up on long winded rants about their greatness lol
Ayy, I loved this reaction so much! Honestly the rants are what I live for! I came for your reaction and that was your reaction! If you haven’t reacted to “CHEESE”, “DLMLU”, “Miserable (you & me)” by Han, “ITEM”, “FREEZE”, or “MEGAVERSE”, I would absolutely recommend any and all of them to you, they are all super diverse and imo all insanely good songs.
Thank you! I have reacted to Megaverse & stumbled across a couple more of these on my own falling down the SKZ rabbit hole but I'll add the rest to my list!
What might surprise you is the amount of rock/metal/rap and UK drill or grime fans for who stray kids is their first kpop group they love. I know I'm not the only one. Loved your technical explanations though need more of that! Awesome
That actually makes a lot of sense because they as a musical act incorporate a lot of different musical styles into their songs that will appeal to a lot of different tastes.
@AmariLeone what I have come across personally is that alot of stray kids fans that are a little older aka late 20s or 30s and up have come from backgrounds like this where they have never listened to kpop before stray kids drew them in. Personally I live for their beats and how hard they go, it appeals to that background!
@AmariLeone, You should watch their NYC Global Citizen Festival live performance last year. Only 3 Racha was there (Not the whole team ot8 due to some reason). They sang 3Racha, Heyday and may be Topline I believe. You will go wild with this performance.
Yes! I was thinking of that performance - yes they did all 3 of those songs. Also, the others were in a minor car accident and had to be checked out and weren't able to make the trip - but they were all fine thankfully!
I absolutely love the Global Citizen performance. Everyone was sad they all couldn’t be there, but honestly I was low key glad 3Racha got to shine. And shine they did!
They switched from the full Stray Kids to a 3Racha performance because several of the members were in a minor car accident a day or two before they were supposed to travel to the festival, including Lee Know and Seungmin, and at least one other member. (None of them were badly hurt but that's the sort of thing that you can't know until you monitor for a few days). Since they couldn't send the whole group, they decided to send 3Racha, since luckily none of them were in the car that had the accident and they made a good complete subunit with plenty songs they are used to performing, and Topline fit the three of them really well.
Dude!!! Do not change!!! I was happy to hear your take in ways I can understand. 3 Racha are Genuis. Bang Chan is amazing!!! He makes the tunes(Compose?) produces ,Directs the singers in the booth, All skz now write songs. Their work ethic is above impressive. May I suggest a song "Muddy Water" please check out both versions from each subset the rapppers and the vocals. just Amazing. oh they sing them LIVE!!!
I appreciate that & yes they definitely are! I have reacted to Muddy water (both versions) you can find those videos here in my SKZ playlist th-cam.com/play/PLFV1NKmusrOCqxb_PP-KHArrSzTddAThj.html
3RACHA is THE song. I like how you can hear each of them so clearly (they have distinct flavours in their verses) and yet it's obvious their a unit. (I wrote this before you said something similar lol) Also, when I'm overwhelmed I sing in my head "just take a deep breath *intake* 3RACHA breathing" and it helps a lot. I wanted to leave you a couple of videos of 3RACHA (Unveil 11) fancams because the official videos cut so much from Bang Chan's verse, but I'm guessing TH-cam doesn't like that. So I you'll have to look it up yourself. And if you have the time, check out HEYDAY (you don't have to make react videos, just if you can let me know what you thought of these). I don't think you've heard that one... You can listen to the studio version, and also check out the performance during the 3rd Fanmeeting "Pilot" (july 2023) and during Lollapalooza (Paris 2023) are FIRE. During the fanmeeting you can hear them saying JOne referring to Han (J as in Jisung and One as in Han can mean one in Korean). And in then you have 3RACHA in October at the Global Citizen Festival in NYC. It was supposed to be an OT8 appearance but due to a small car accident (involving Lee Know, Hyunjin and Seungmin) they decided to go just the three of them. You get both 3RACHA and Heyday, as well as Topline 3RACHA version.
You are awesome the way you go into detail is so much fun to watch I immediately followed! Thanks for this reaction :) HEYDAY is an awesome track you might enjoy by Stray Kids too.
Stormzy must have been on Bang Chan's playlist when he was growing up! This track to me is definitely a nod to Stormzy's SHUT UP. I enjoyed your commentary on UK drill.
I always enjoy your tangents! I'm familiar with Drill and Grime (big fan of Stormzy, Dizzee Rascal, Skepta, and Burna Boy) but I enjoyed your explanation of the technical aspects. The Drill scene in Australia is pretty strong too, heavily influenced by UK Drill - Onefour, Chillinit, Kerser are all great artists from Western Sydney. I'm sure Chris would've listened to these guys and been influenced, being a Western Sydney kid himself 👍
I for one greatly appreciate your music course on drill in this video. not only do i enjoy learning about it, but also it helps me appreciate their song better!
I like that you explain the music so don't worry you can ramble all you want we don't mind. You are giving us infos we don't really usually hear on reactors. I really enjoyed this. 😁
I can tell you they absolutely don’t use AI.. Bang Chan pretty much makes all their beats. They have videos where they show their production and they will sometimes tell you how they came up with what and details etc.
Oh that was just an analogy on how it incorporates a bunch of different aspects of the genre into one song. I don't actually believe they use AI in the making of their music - fun fact AI is trash at **making** music, it's only good at copy the sounds of artists voices, the rest of the music in "AI songs" are made by humans still
They 100% deserve more respect and recognition for their roles in the production of these songs on top of the fact how much work goes into the actual doing parts as well! I swear they must never sleep lol 3Racha songs are all great, off the top of my head I'd suggest Hey Day, We Go, Wow (even though they'd probably hate me suggesting that, it's a laugh for lyrics but sounds so good!) Runners High there's a big one I'm sure I'm missing??? Oh well someone else will suggest it!
Yeah I've heard many stay be worried about how hard Chan works & tbh I feel that way as well, for him and for the other members as well cause man they really have so many things they're doing but it's also very impressive
YES!!! I waited for this reaction!!!! This is one of my favorite songs too! And for me, It's the opposite, when I see a long video from you, I KNOW that you loved the song! LoL and yes, It's definitely hard to say "It's my favorite" on a STRAY KIDS song, cause they're all my favorite songs... SUPER hard! It really is one of my favorites though... :D + Thank you for explaining drill!!! I do listen to hip-hop but I don't understand the genre... subgenre of them... It's like, I was mostly a Punk\Ruck girl before kpop, but even then, I couldn't tell you which kind of genre the band I loved was, a lot of the times, I didn't learn enough about the music itself, so that's on me obviously. FOR ME, you know that I love listening to you talk, about anything, so I love your long videos. I'm here to listen and learn from you music MASTER :D I want to recommend a BAND to you. They're also under JYP like STRAY KIDS (and they're obviously friends. Chan takes care of them as I saw, cause they're younger...such a sweetheart). 2\3 of them are involved in writing and composing the songs too. *XDINARY HEROES!* They all play on something, and they all sing (Drummer too). they have a lot of live clips of their own music and covers they did on their channel, and I know that you love live music! 2 of them were Idol trainees when JYP told them they were going to be in a band instead. had to learn how to play cause of that, like starting from nothing all over again. They're good. sogs to start you off- Happy Death Day, Freakin' Bad, Strawberry Cake, Hair Cut, Man in the Box, Good Enough
Heyyyy!!! Hope you're doing well! Anywhoosies (lol) yeah most people don't really know subgenres even of the genres of music they like. I'm honestly pretty bad with subgenres unless it's music genres I'm very familiar with. The subgenre matters less than "is this good or not" for most people and tbh that's fair cause like who cares what genre it is if it sucks lol. Oh & I have heard of XDINARY HEROES, but so far I have only listened to Test Me (very much enjoyed) & one other I'm blanking on the name of right now, I'll have to do a deeper dive.
LOL, I love your back comments... I can see you smile without really seeing it :) About knowing the subgenres, It's a yes and no for me, cause first of all, I truly live through music, It's a part of everything I do, second, I really love learning (about everything in general), so when it comes to music that I love, I want to learn as much as I can. You told me once something about loving the fact that I actually check the credits for songs, because not many people really do that. It was about STRAY KIDS, but I do that with every group that I listen to. I do that cause I really appreciate the artists, they work hard doing what they do, heart and soul. 'Test Me' is a good song. watch their live stuff, you'll love it. not even for the reaction (for me \ us), just for you to enjoy :) @@AmariLeone
I know you're a big anime fan and I haven't seen anyone talk about it here but Chan's verse alone has at least 3 references to anime. One for all and all for one (My Hero Academia) been in the corps (Attack on Titan) 3Racha breathing (Demon Slayer). You could probably find more if you really reach. A lot of the members are fans of anime and they've done other anime references in other songs like muddy water they have "Call me demon slayer" and Topline mentions Grand Line and Red Line and could referencing One Piece as well as in Megaverse they say "Jump Force" referencing the video game that has Naruto, Goku, and Luffy (obviously because the song is about the multiverse and alternate universes and the video game is a combination of a bunch of different anime universes mashed into one). Also I don't blame you for this being one of your favorite Stray Kids songs this was my most played song of 2023 on Spotify because I love when Chan raps because he almost never does (because JYP sucks /hj) and when he does he always pops off and I love it. Also a fun thing to react to would be for you to compare the Stray Kids Mixtapes 1-4 (Placebo, Behind The Light, For You, Broken Compass) as well as Hoodie Season to the 3Racha original demos under the same names (except for Behind the light is titled "If there's a shadow, there must be a light") that were released prior to making them OT9/8 because you can see how the production of the songs change
This song is already a masterpiece my fav is chans part and the way his accent really shines in his verse really just makes it .. guess yum to me not yo take away from han or Binne
For more 3Racha, try Heyday and the pre-debut Matroyshyka. There are several pre-debut live performance videos of 3Racha from JYP showcase events, and a performance version of Matroyshyka with only Changbin and Han, it was for a "battle" with YG on their survival show and Chan was so overextended he couldn't participate, but that's a pretty great version. Interesting to hear the raw talent and how good they were even that young, although they are way better now.
I love music, and I specificaly love this song but I don't always know that much about some of the history and background of hiphop adjacent and hiphop sub-genre's so this was super interesting. Thank you!
I knew you'd like it 😋 You can try 3rd eye next. It's weird, but also very interesting musically. Also a very interesting older track is Hoodie season, it's got a very playful vibe and the conposition is very complex.
skz have a very unique style of music/production and one of my fav parts of listening to them is seeing how they apply it to different genres. 3racha is one of my fav songs on the maxident album because despite the fact that it has most if not all the classic components of drill, it still is very uniquely stray kids.
This was a great commentary - I didn't have the background knowledge for the type of music this actually is. Really interesting - thank you! Some of Changbin's raps literally make my eyes roll back. Hannie and Bangchan too, come to that, lol.
This is on Maxident record and this song is a prelude to putting the haters on notice with what music was coming. Because the guys are definitely flexing with Megaverse and Topline.
@@viggoflechiano5654 welcome! Yeah it's a tiny learning curve, but they are pretty easy to differentiate - they are each unique in his own way. ngl, I was lowkey excited to think there might be a Chan rap I hadn't heard!
More 3Racha please!!!!! I recommend Heyday,Matryoshka,Runner's High,We Go,& the Zone for starters.😄but literally any song you pick is a win-win for everybody!!3Racha Bri g the heat,they are absolute FIRE🔥🎶❤✌
When I heard this song, I noticed that Changbin did all in Korean, Han half & half, Bang Chan all in English, the song for me is like a really beautiful colored ombré
Changbin and Han also has songs credited to them: KOMCA has: Bang CHan 152, Changbin 131 and Han 166 song accredited to them as of 4/11/23 - they remain the 1st, 2nd and 3rd most credited 4th gen idols.
You were right with the ai thing actually. They haven't got so much knowledge about uk drill so they majorly did research learned how it sounds like and pulled a song own by themselves
Check out these two solo raps. They're pretty freaking amazing. DOODLE (by Changbin) th-cam.com/video/Q-1OLjqWr2g/w-d-xo.html (^^^^ stop listening at the 3.02 mark. Any music after that was added by the person who made the video.) I GOT IT (by Han) th-cam.com/video/-VVgmvv4TrQ/w-d-xo.html (^^^^ stop listening at the 2.49 mark. Same reason as above.)
Already left a comment for 3Racha stuff but if u haven’t checked it yet I think you might enjoy Changbins Doodle and Cypher then Hans I got it, for some more of their rap heavy individual songs
you should watch their album intro for maxident they talk about it their during their every insight on how the song in album came they did that every comeback if your interested i can drop you all the links.
@@AmariLeone I’m a year old Stay and just discovered it when they went to New York in September. PLEASE WATCH! There’s no mv though…just the color coded with lyrics.
Would love to see your reaction to Gwangil Jo - Korea (or any other of his songs) I stumbled over this artist like two weeks ago and I think he is a badass rapper
I really enjoy that you explain musical styles and give background/history as well as examining the lyrics and the music itself. I'd love to see a reaction to Mirror Mirror by F.Hero and Milli w/ Changbin featuring. F.Hero and Milli are both Thai rappers. th-cam.com/video/FZlBKl-spfY/w-d-xo.html
Oooo really enjoyed the breakdown of what goes into drill as a genre. 😁 Between this and Agust D's Huh?!, i was sooo surprised to see drill show up in kpop (and it not be corny 😂) Sooo.. does Australian drill fit in here somewhere? Does it have it's own characteristics that show up here? I only ask because he's Australian but that could mean nothing esp since i saw the other comment saying he listened to Skepta. Anyway, enjoyed the reaction - thanks!
Lmao I did not expect to put on a whole music course during this video but that's what happens when I turn on some heat! 🔥🦁
Why I call you The Professor. I'm always here for it though
You're so happy n enthusiastic.. loved the course in trap n drill too 😂
Not a problem dude thank you so much for that explanation because I had no idea what drill was until you just broke it down thank you very much for that do not apologize thank you
Honestly it was so interesting though 👏🏻
Bangchan made the beat. He says Han and Changbin came to him and said they wanted to make a song with a drill beat ...and this is what we have
I expect nothing less! He went in!
"who listening to drill in stray kids?" chan does! he's been a fan of the british hip hop scene for a long time - he shouted out skepta in a 2017 song, and when i saw stray kids perform in london in 2019 he talked a little about how much this kind of music influenced him
See I knew my boy had great taste!
he's also shouted out XXXtentaction in drangon three!
As of today their copyright numbers are:
Bang Chan: 182 songs
Changbin: 154 songs
Han: 147 songs
Running up the numbers indeed!
Impressive 👍🏾
Update as of November 2024:
3. Bang Chan 200
9. Changbin 173
11. Han 165
Chan is a beat/track genius. Nobody can replace him.
He definitely is.. Genius yet humble ❤
Facts 💯
I would absolutely LOVE to hear the music he has on his laptop that he hasn't used yet
@@missiew1949 So does the world.
Chan is the 3rd most credited idol. Han and Changbin are in top 15, knocking on top 10, likely to happen with their next album
Incredible achievements all around! Especially for their ages
I loved when Chan would compose a song live on Channie’s Room. He’s so talented.
Those videos are always cool. Haven't seen one from Chan so I'll have to check it out
I think it's episode 95 where they made "Can't live without Seo Changbin"
Despite all this, 3Racha and Stray Kids still don't get the respect and the popularity they totally deserve. But they have come to term with that and let their music speak for themselves.

The most impressive part is how they make those genre switches work well together in the same song, very difficult thing to pull off

Bang Chan is #3 in KPop

That's so incredible especially given their ages!!
One tiny detail I wanted to point out is that the bell “ching” sound at the end is reversed at the beginning of the song. So if you put it on repeat, it’s like a reset.
That attention to details that ultimately don’t mean anything is what I love about 3RACHA. I love looking for those moments
Inspite of the unique flavors that Han and Changbin bring, BangChan still manages to stand out. There's a reason he's the leader. ❤❤
That was just the top of the iceberg. There's more. There's Heyday for example or if you want something unique . The Tortoise and the Hare. Or Maze of Memories. I promise it's an experience you're not ready for.

3RACHA is THE song. I like how you can hear each of them so clearly (they have distinct flavours in their verses) and yet it's obvious their a unit. (I wrote this before you said something similar lol)
Also, when I'm overwhelmed I sing in my head "just take a deep breath *intake* 3RACHA breathing" and it helps a lot.
I wanted to leave you a couple of videos of 3RACHA (Unveil 11) fancams because the official videos cut so much from Bang Chan's verse, but I'm guessing TH-cam doesn't like that. So I you'll have to look it up yourself.
And if you have the time, check out HEYDAY (you don't have to make react videos, just if you can let me know what you thought of these). I don't think you've heard that one... You can listen to the studio version, and also check out the performance during the 3rd Fanmeeting "Pilot" (july 2023) and during Lollapalooza (Paris 2023) are FIRE. During the fanmeeting you can hear them saying JOne referring to Han (J as in Jisung and One as in Han can mean one in Korean).
And in then you have 3RACHA in October at the Global Citizen Festival in NYC. It was supposed to be an OT8 appearance but due to a small car accident (involving Lee Know, Hyunjin and Seungmin) they decided to go just the three of them. You get both 3RACHA and Heyday, as well as Topline 3RACHA version.
You are awesome the way you go into detail is so much fun to watch I immediately followed! Thanks for this reaction :) HEYDAY is an awesome track you might enjoy by Stray Kids too.
Thank you so much!! And yeah a few people recommended it here so I added it to my list of things to react to
Stormzy must have been on Bang Chan's playlist when he was growing up! This track to me is definitely a nod to Stormzy's SHUT UP. I enjoyed your commentary on UK drill.
I always enjoy your tangents! I'm familiar with Drill and Grime (big fan of Stormzy, Dizzee Rascal, Skepta, and Burna Boy) but I enjoyed your explanation of the technical aspects. The Drill scene in Australia is pretty strong too, heavily influenced by UK Drill - Onefour, Chillinit, Kerser are all great artists from Western Sydney. I'm sure Chris would've listened to these guys and been influenced, being a Western Sydney kid himself 👍
See I knew you had taste!!! see what I did there? *wink wink nudge nudge* lol
I for one greatly appreciate your music course on drill in this video. not only do i enjoy learning about it, but also it helps me appreciate their song better!
I like Han's genius rap
I like that you explain the music so don't worry you can ramble all you want we don't mind. You are giving us infos we don't really usually hear on reactors. I really enjoyed this. 😁
Love 3Racha by 3Racha!!! I always hear the triple percussive beat in the chorus as 1-2-3 (BAM-BAM-BAM) for our three guys… ❤❤❤ 3Racha.
🔥🔥🔥
I can tell you they absolutely don’t use AI.. Bang Chan pretty much makes all their beats. They have videos where they show their production and they will sometimes tell you how they came up with what and details etc.
Oh that was just an analogy on how it incorporates a bunch of different aspects of the genre into one song. I don't actually believe they use AI in the making of their music - fun fact AI is trash at **making** music, it's only good at copy the sounds of artists voices, the rest of the music in "AI songs" are made by humans still
@@AmariLeone 🤣🤣 I knew what meant.. it’s def trash 🗑️ love your reactions btw
They 100% deserve more respect and recognition for their roles in the production of these songs on top of the fact how much work goes into the actual doing parts as well! I swear they must never sleep lol
3Racha songs are all great, off the top of my head I'd suggest Hey Day, We Go, Wow (even though they'd probably hate me suggesting that, it's a laugh for lyrics but sounds so good!) Runners High there's a big one I'm sure I'm missing??? Oh well someone else will suggest it!
Yeah I've heard many stay be worried about how hard Chan works & tbh I feel that way as well, for him and for the other members as well cause man they really have so many things they're doing but it's also very impressive
YES!!! I waited for this reaction!!!!
This is one of my favorite songs too! And for me, It's the opposite, when I see a long video from you, I KNOW that you loved the song! LoL and yes, It's definitely hard to say "It's my favorite" on a STRAY KIDS song, cause they're all my favorite songs... SUPER hard! It really is one of my favorites though... :D
+ Thank you for explaining drill!!! I do listen to hip-hop but I don't understand the genre... subgenre of them...
It's like, I was mostly a Punk\Ruck girl before kpop, but even then, I couldn't tell you which kind of genre the band I loved was, a lot of the times, I didn't learn enough about the music itself, so that's on me obviously.
FOR ME, you know that I love listening to you talk, about anything, so I love your long videos. I'm here to listen and learn from you music MASTER :D
I want to recommend a BAND to you. They're also under JYP like STRAY KIDS (and they're obviously friends. Chan takes care of them as I saw, cause they're younger...such a sweetheart). 2\3 of them are involved in writing and composing the songs too.
*XDINARY HEROES!*
They all play on something, and they all sing (Drummer too). they have a lot of live clips of their own music and covers they did on their channel, and I know that you love live music!
2 of them were Idol trainees when JYP told them they were going to be in a band instead. had to learn how to play cause of that, like starting from nothing all over again.
They're good.
sogs to start you off- Happy Death Day, Freakin' Bad, Strawberry Cake, Hair Cut, Man in the Box, Good Enough
Heyyyy!!! Hope you're doing well! Anywhoosies (lol) yeah most people don't really know subgenres even of the genres of music they like. I'm honestly pretty bad with subgenres unless it's music genres I'm very familiar with. The subgenre matters less than "is this good or not" for most people and tbh that's fair cause like who cares what genre it is if it sucks lol. Oh & I have heard of XDINARY HEROES, but so far I have only listened to Test Me (very much enjoyed) & one other I'm blanking on the name of right now, I'll have to do a deeper dive.
LOL, I love your back comments... I can see you smile without really seeing it :)
About knowing the subgenres, It's a yes and no for me, cause first of all, I truly live through music, It's a part of everything I do, second, I really love learning (about everything in general), so when it comes to music that I love, I want to learn as much as I can.
You told me once something about loving the fact that I actually check the credits for songs, because not many people really do that. It was about STRAY KIDS, but I do that with every group that I listen to. I do that cause I really appreciate the artists, they work hard doing what they do, heart and soul.
'Test Me' is a good song. watch their live stuff, you'll love it. not even for the reaction (for me \ us), just for you to enjoy :)
@@AmariLeone
Please do a reaction to "Heyday", "Maze of memories" and "The tortoise and the hare"
I know you're a big anime fan and I haven't seen anyone talk about it here but Chan's verse alone has at least 3 references to anime. One for all and all for one (My Hero Academia) been in the corps (Attack on Titan) 3Racha breathing (Demon Slayer). You could probably find more if you really reach. A lot of the members are fans of anime and they've done other anime references in other songs like muddy water they have "Call me demon slayer" and Topline mentions Grand Line and Red Line and could referencing One Piece as well as in Megaverse they say "Jump Force" referencing the video game that has Naruto, Goku, and Luffy (obviously because the song is about the multiverse and alternate universes and the video game is a combination of a bunch of different anime universes mashed into one). Also I don't blame you for this being one of your favorite Stray Kids songs this was my most played song of 2023 on Spotify because I love when Chan raps because he almost never does (because JYP sucks /hj) and when he does he always pops off and I love it. Also a fun thing to react to would be for you to compare the Stray Kids Mixtapes 1-4 (Placebo, Behind The Light, For You, Broken Compass) as well as Hoodie Season to the 3Racha original demos under the same names (except for Behind the light is titled "If there's a shadow, there must be a light") that were released prior to making them OT9/8 because you can see how the production of the songs change
This song is from the Maxident album! 12:38
The opening bell in my opinion is also related to We Go. Listening to 3RACHA after We Go is a perfect song transition!!
This is from their Maxident Album, part of the sub unit. 3RACHA, DANCERACHA AND VOCALRACHA
This song is already a masterpiece my fav is chans part and the way his accent really shines in his verse really just makes it .. guess yum to me not yo take away from han or Binne
For more 3Racha, try Heyday and the pre-debut Matroyshyka. There are several pre-debut live performance videos of 3Racha from JYP showcase events, and a performance version of Matroyshyka with only Changbin and Han, it was for a "battle" with YG on their survival show and Chan was so overextended he couldn't participate, but that's a pretty great version. Interesting to hear the raw talent and how good they were even that young, although they are way better now.
U should check heyday 🎉
this!
Thank you for this authentic reaction! Loved your input.❤
My pleasure 😊
3Racha songs are wild!!! You should def check 'em out.
I love music, and I specificaly love this song but I don't always know that much about some of the history and background of hiphop adjacent and hiphop sub-genre's so this was super interesting. Thank you!
I knew you'd like it 😋 You can try 3rd eye next. It's weird, but also very interesting musically. Also a very interesting older track is Hoodie season, it's got a very playful vibe and the conposition is very complex.
skz have a very unique style of music/production and one of my fav parts of listening to them is seeing how they apply it to different genres. 3racha is one of my fav songs on the maxident album because despite the fact that it has most if not all the classic components of drill, it still is very uniquely stray kids.
This was a great commentary - I didn't have the background knowledge for the type of music this actually is. Really interesting - thank you! Some of Changbin's raps literally make my eyes roll back. Hannie and Bangchan too, come to that, lol.
Yeah CB is really a beast so I feel you on that!
This is on Maxident record and this song is a prelude to putting the haters on notice with what music was coming. Because the guys are definitely flexing with Megaverse and Topline.
Just a reminder to listen to Heyday! Also, you should watch their “First Take” videos..PLEASE!!!!!!
I recommend checking:
Changbin - Cypher, Han - i got it.
Changbin has Cypher, is that the one you are referring to, or do I need to detective up a BangChan Cipher?
@@amyhahn4734Yes, yes, exactly! Sometimes I confuse their names. I just recently joined the fandom.😂
@@viggoflechiano5654 welcome! Yeah it's a tiny learning curve, but they are pretty easy to differentiate - they are each unique in his own way. ngl, I was lowkey excited to think there might be a Chan rap I hadn't heard!
More 3Racha please!!!!! I recommend Heyday,Matryoshka,Runner's High,We Go,& the Zone for starters.😄but literally any song you pick is a win-win for everybody!!3Racha Bri g the heat,they are absolute FIRE🔥🎶❤✌
You are professional, love your reaction, and would like to see more of your videos.
Thank you so much!! I have a whole playlist of Stray Kids reactions on the channel, ranging from song reactions to funny compilation reactions
When I heard this song, I noticed that Changbin did all in Korean, Han half & half, Bang Chan all in English, the song for me is like a really beautiful colored ombré
Ooooh interesting I didn't even notice that! Thank you!
I enjoy so much 🫶. Thank you for this great react 👌.
Glad you to hear it!
We go, 3racha and heyday are my favourite 3racha songs.
Changbin and Han also has songs credited to them: KOMCA has: Bang CHan 152, Changbin 131 and Han 166 song accredited to them as of 4/11/23 - they remain the 1st, 2nd and 3rd most credited 4th gen idols.
You may want to check out their recording videos. They have some for 5 Star and Social Path.
Did you react to Heyday? I can’t remember lol…I’ve watched so many of your videos! If you haven’t you neeeeeed to!!!
Thanks for your explanation, I've been trying to define a drill beat for a while!
😊
Happy to help!
thx
It definitely reminds me of a british or aussie drill 😭 (coming from a brit)
You were right with the ai thing actually. They haven't got so much knowledge about uk drill so they majorly did research learned how it sounds like and pulled a song own by themselves
If you liked this I recommend some of 3Racha’s other songs. Hey Day, Zone, P.A.C.E are all BANGERS
Check out these two solo raps. They're pretty freaking amazing.
DOODLE (by Changbin)

(^^^^ stop listening at the 3.02 mark. Any music after that was added by the person who made the video.)
I GOT IT (by Han)
th-cam.com/video/-VVgmvv4TrQ/w-d-xo.html
(^^^^ stop listening at the 2.49 mark. Same reason as above.)
3Racha let go!
Already left a comment for 3Racha stuff but if u haven’t checked it yet I think you might enjoy Changbins Doodle and Cypher then Hans I got it, for some more of their rap heavy individual songs
you should watch their album intro for maxident they talk about it their during their every insight on how the song in album came they did that every comeback if your interested i can drop you all the links.
Im pretty sure 3RACHA was made in the Maxident era!
This is off Maxident. and I will echo the comments about Heyday. It's a 3Racha track made for a dance crew competition.
Ooooh that sounds interesting! I'll add it to my list!
99% sure it's Bang Chan who's the drill fan, considering he references Skepta in an old 3Racha track.
Didn’t you react to “Heyday”??? I thought you did lol. That is also a 3Racha song…if you didn’t, it’s a MUST!
Haven't reacted to it yet but I'll add it to my list!
@@AmariLeone I’m a year old Stay and just discovered it when they went to New York in September. PLEASE WATCH! There’s no mv though…just the color coded with lyrics.
Did you check out zone already?
I have not, is it a SKZ song or 3racha song? I can add it to my list
@@AmariLeone3racha
Would love to see your reaction to Gwangil Jo - Korea (or any other of his songs)
I stumbled over this artist like two weeks ago and I think he is a badass rapper
Try Payday by 3Ratcha, it's even better!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉😊
Listen to Heyday and Item
I really enjoy that you explain musical styles and give background/history as well as examining the lyrics and the music itself. I'd love to see a reaction to Mirror Mirror by F.Hero and Milli w/ Changbin featuring. F.Hero and Milli are both Thai rappers. th-cam.com/video/FZlBKl-spfY/w-d-xo.html
I'll add it to my list!
Oooo really enjoyed the breakdown of what goes into drill as a genre. 😁 Between this and Agust D's Huh?!, i was sooo surprised to see drill show up in kpop (and it not be corny 😂)
Sooo.. does Australian drill fit in here somewhere? Does it have it's own characteristics that show up here? I only ask because he's Australian but that could mean nothing esp since i saw the other comment saying he listened to Skepta.
Anyway, enjoyed the reaction - thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! And yes the "and it not be corny" is the key part! Any one can do anything, it takes skill to do it justice!!
Please react to The Rose- back to me.
Please react to han I got it
