FIRST EVER LISTEN TO STRAY KIDS ‘5 STAR’ ALBUM!! **MY HONEST OPINION..** 

You definitely have preferences for chiller songs where the vocals stand out more, but 5-star is the complete opposite, it's what skz always stood out for: their noisy music, that's why the fandom loves this album too much more

People were bitching about 5 Star for being “low quality” and I just wanna say NUH UH it’s so good

"Just cause your parents let you drink doesn't mean I will" got me rolling😂😂😂

5-star it's definitely my favorite album by them next to noeasy

Most of the songs grow on me (except for a few that I ~instantly love~). Like on the first time I listen to them I'm like "yeah ok not bad" and then the more I listen the more I love 'em. And then they're on my fave playlist iykyk

THE SONGS ARE FIRE ( yalltysm it's my first time getting over 20 likes)

5 star is definitely a grower and then it's brilliant!

for me 5-star is still to this day their best allbum

YUH NEW POST! NIGEL = BEST KPOP REACTER EVER! Keep it up Nigel! 🎉🎉🎉

I appreciate that you keep it real when reviewing songs. 5 Star wasn’t my favorite album either. I loved Hall of Fame and Collision. There were some songs I liked (Super Bowl, Get Lit, Topline) but it felt like it was missing something, you know? But it’s okay because they have countless songs I love and I know Mountains is already gonna be a hit!

Right now I'm just a Stray Kids fan, so it would be fun to discover a new group with you.

I love how everyone has different tastes, 5 star is the best album of stray kids in my opinion, the album with the best songs, but i loved your reactions nigel, i love you and your job, you are such an amazing and cute person ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I have been waiting for this🫶🫰

Nigelll u backkkk I was waiting for straykids content ❤❤❤

love that chat called you as a topline girlie (also always appreciate your honesty when reacting)

To me 5 Star is full with tittle track worthy songs, I wish Hall of Fame had an MV

5 star is one of my favs

item took like a solid 5 months to grow on me but now i love it

5 Star is an amazing album. People be hating for no reason. I’ve been waiting for you to react to this. 💜😆

super bowl and topline for me is my favs😍😍

YUGIN SEOL! 👹👹

I love this album! But I think once you watch the music videos and live performances they will grow on you

TOPLINE 🔛🔝

5 star is still in my soul and i will never move on no matter what happens.

You should see hall of fame live version SKZ go off ❤

SO happy when I saw that Nigel posted😄

5-Star was my first cb and I was soo lost! New to Skz, new to kpop- I was overwhelmed in the best way!! 😆 Lol Hall of Fame had me levitating, Dance Like Changbin was gorgeous! Superbowl had my insides squirming! Some got me right away, others grew on me, like now I know all Skz songs do! I would've never listened to a ballad by choice, but a Skz ballad- sign me up! I'm so glad to have all of Skz discography to match my mood, and we just keep getting more! ❤😌😁

NIGEL WHEN I TELL THAT YOU NEED TO GET INTO ATEEZ I MEAN IT not to mention the fact that Ateez and Straykids are besties! ATINYS WHO ARE WITH ME?

this video has been a humbling experience for me ngl cause i didn't think i would find anyone not liking hall of fame and superbowl like these two changed the trajectory of my life, they were on repeat all day all night, it really was a life changing experience for me. skz were spitting when they said they have something for everyone's taste palette, so glad you still found songs for your playlist from this album.

Dude 5-Star is my fav album (specifically hall of fame and item) and I just wanna say... it says amazing things about skz that nigel and I have pretty different music tastes and yet we're still both stays 😂

9.5/10 No skip for me Hall of Fame, Item, and Super Bowl are in my top 20 SKZ tracks! Can't wait for your Rock Star review!

Noo nigel dont move on yet m still in my discovering straykids era n i was enjoying it so mch with ur videos😅

FINALLY🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔊🔊

My most favourite SKZ album and definitely their best selling for a reason. Can’t tell you how much I was yelling at the tv during this reaction. 😢

ATEEZ NEXTTTT 🎉

Love to see your journey of discovering stray kids . Stray kids is my ultimate group. Stray kids is a legendary group with the most diverse discography. Stray kids are huge in the music industry. They are top producers . Only groups in k-pop that are self made ( chan picked the members) and self produced groups . From the newest album ,ATE ,5 star,Rock Star albums and lose my breath,hall of frame ,FNF, item,leave ,cover me, the sound, super bowl, Youtiful,blind spot,time out and obviously S-Class, lalalala etc .

People need to watch the intro of each album to know how they come up with the idea and concept and meaning behind the song and all details and work they do on every song. Stray kids are known for the quality of music and dedication for music.They are very creative and unique and versatile. Stray kids is inspiring to so many people. Their music is something connected with people .They give motivation, inspiration to express yourself it's ok to be unique You are beautiful the way you are. stray kids discography is very diverse with life philosophy. I describe stray kids music is "EXPRESSION OF LIFE" EXPRESSION OF PEOPLE" "EXPRESSION OF EMOTIONS" Lyrics are beautifully expressed with so many meanings . They have a diverse discography. I love the intellect, cleverness and creativity in songs. They have a very organic,fresh and unique sound. They didn't limited themself and explore the new side of music. You see so many new, refreshing and experimental sounds in their music. They explore different genres and express different emotions and touch so many important subjects like social pressure , anxiety, mental health, loneliness, depression insomnia etc. They break many stereotypes in music. The more you listen to them the more you admire and become addicted to them and respect them more as artists. The music they made is connected with people with beautiful messages , inspiration and motivation . ❤❤

now let's get to the MVs woohooo

5-star was my first Skz album/comeback and it certainly did not disappoint.

Thanks for posting Nigel!

I would really recommend either Ateez(lots of people who like SKZ like Ateez too), TXT (just based on what I noticed your music taste tends to be) Enhypen maybe too, or Seventeen (they’re a third gen group like BTS and I think you would love their energy)

yea i feel like these songs are somewhat less of the type to blow you away immediately like some of their other tracks (they seem to have more of a comparatively lower-key sound), but are definitely the ones that grow on you the most as you listen to them a few times bc they’re so catchy and addicting (have def turned into some of my favs that i listen to all the time)

I love this album so much, it’s my favourite ❤

I'm just going to comment as I watch. So this might get long, lol I believe, the Hawking's line was more like: (we're) Inmortal. Like Hawking in black holes...dadada. Two different sentences, because they were kinda just name dropping famous people. This one took me a bit, but then I had Bang Chan's like going on my mind in a loop "Hear the people call my name" so... Gotta confess, ITEM, took me a while to warm up to it, because it was hard to listen the ITEM ITEM I ate them, instead of just ITEM ITEM ITEM(? Also, it is a really... like, the gaming references can get you a bit lost. Yeah, I think the ITEM is their charisma, their hard work, their talent, their flavour, maybe. But the full reference is for games, when you have a legendary item, like a cool special weapon in a shooting game. It is definitely a running/gym song tho lol They do grow on you, don't worry. Also, SKZ has a big discography that while very cohesive in their signature sound, it can be all over the place, and we do have personal tastes, so don't worry, Nigel, truly. You do appreciate them, and that's more than enough. It cracks me up, that in TOPLINE, HyunJin says that they are not cocky... just to say they are cocky on GET LIT. DLC is perfect, and the video for it is GORGEOUS. Hope you checked it out, even if off camera. GET LIT, yeah, by it's own is... fine. I like it, it did take time tho, and the visuals of the MV did help. It's more of performance song, than a just listen song. Like Hall of Fame, kinda. Collision... just, the trumpets, and the phone ring.... they were amazing for me. Also, it is a Han song, and those always hit for me. FNF is just so pretty and nice, and heartwarming. Youtiful is so warm, and it is so so perfect, idc. Time Out is the perfect summer song, that's it. No more needed. Nigel, sweetie, do not worry if you didn't vibe with the whole album at first listen (or still don't vibe with the whole of it months later), SKZ makes music for all of us, and as long as you admire, and respect their work, it will be fine. Keep enjoying being a STAY, and do take care.

17:27 OKAYYYYYY NIGEL!!!!!! I SEE YOUUUUU!!!! *in my Nigel voice* “MY GUYYYYYY”

We need mv reactions

YESSIRRRR ❤

Bro I love your reactions to all the songs so much like I’m dying 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

You definitely need to watch them perform hall of fame live its miraculous. Their performance from the golden disc awards is one of my favorite

I appreciate the new pfp Nigel 😔👊🏻

Out of all the straykids album, 5 stars is literally S tier!! 🔥🔥🔥

Item gave him the shimmy’s 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Gracias por reaccionar el álbum. Son unas joyita los peques las letras de sus canciones son increibles. El álbum completo es una joya💎💎💎💎💎💎💎❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🇦🇷👍

DUDE I BE CLICKING SO FAST

Nigel my guy, you are doing so well🫶🏾

For me Skz songs are in 2 parts once that just straight away makes me want to turn off the lights start disco lights and just party and ones that grow on me so much that they won't leave me alone. cherry are those that will make us cry rivers.

Nigel if you haven’t you need to react to this video called why Seungmin is a hidden ace

hey don't forget 19.07. stray kids have the comeback

its kinda crazy how 5star is one of my least favourite skz albums (probably somewhere in the bottom 5), but its still so incredibly amazing edit: even just by watching this ive realised how much i like these songs even more now lmao, ig its not in the bottom 5 skz albums anymore edit 2: how tf did i just straight up forget that collision and fnf are two of my all time fave skz songs 😭

You need to watch the music video super bowl. Because when they light up the picture of the guy who's singing that part is really the guy singing it. That's why you need to watch the music video.

8:50 that's why han is the Ace bc he can change his voice in any way 😅 ❤

Hall of fame should be listened to with their live performance

NIGEL PLEASE BECOME A STAYTINY LIKE THE REST OF US

Nigel absolutely loves a more melodic song where the members (esp seungmin) get to show off their vocals, we have noticed from the amazing snippets when he sings cover me for us 😅

Nigel, i feel you need to listen to the album a few more times, because most of the time it takes a while for it to hit! Im actually curious on your opinion on all songs after several listens, because then, THAT would be how you truly feel about the songs. People tend to just miss some things if heard just once, like some hit you straight up the first time, but the others creep up on you and later you don’t know why you didnt love it the first time 😂

Thanks for posting this video Nigel! Question of the day: What is your favorite Stray Kids album?

5 star is so fucking good - your preferenves are just a bit diff...i WILL SAY many people that dont listen to more hardcore experimental songs like this album it grew on yhem over time

"WE ALL IN THE CONVERSATION" - chan -lee know -changbin -hyunjin -han -felix -seungmin -jeongin BAR FOR BAR ALBUM

Yea so this made me realize we have the exact opposite taste in music. But still love the honest review.

I think super bowl is not a song for everyone, I used to not really feeling it, but it grew on me, as for Hall of Fame you should watch the live version, that's FIRE FOR REAL. Love from Italy❤

DAMNNNNN I NEVER KNEW 5STAR SONGS COULD BE THIS FREAKYYYYYY

5 STAR is insane 🔥🔥🔥

Stephen Hawking suggested that it is conceivable in the future that we may be able to upload the contents of the human brain onto a computer so that the information may, in a sense, become immortalized

it’s better be Seventeen or ATEEZ or we MIGHTTTT have a problem

This album is unique❤

Heyyyyy

NIGEL I AM TELLING YOU, YOU MUST WATCH THE TOPLINE MUSIC VIDEO. YOU WILL REGRET IT IF YOU DON'T, IT IS AMAZING! 🤩

its okay you dont need to listen to all songs everyday. the very reason that stray kids create different songs of different genre s. they have every song whenever you need it ;)

I enjoy this album but some songs needed a few more listens to grow on me. You may find that for you too Nigel.

BRO TXT IS THE GROUP PLEASE OUUUU GODDDDDD I NEED IT!

"What the fuck does that mean?! 😘🥰😍🤩😋😛😝😜🤪💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻"

PATREON FAMILY SAW IT FIRST!!! 🔥🔥

NIGEL B JORDANNN PLEASE LOOK AT THE NEW TEASERREE

Hawking is immortal through his contributions in the fields of physics and cosmology.

hi nigel are u will do live this week??

Stray kids They are definitely dominating the k-pop. They are huge in the music industry. They are top producers. They are legends with huge discography.They are making history in billboards continuously 4 time #1in 200, most pre order in k-pop history, top most sales, they are most awarded in 4th gen( best group , best performance group, album of the year, most popular group, group of the year etc.) first group that make many records, first and only one to perform in many events, shows and festivals, first in k-pop in history to k-pop group attend the metgala. And many more achivement. They are the most successful group we have . Stray kids have all the qualities which make them legends of k-pop . Plus also make apart from other generation of groups like Big Bang, exo, Bts, snsd, black pink, twice and other many groups is - • Self- made - They are the First fully self made group in k-pop. Chan picked all group members, they made the name,concept, and logo. On the other hand other groups are made by the company. • Self- produce - Stray kids is a self produced group from the start of their discography made by themselves. They are the ones to make beats, melody, write lyrics, compose songs,record the song,and edit, arrange the song etc. other groups become successful thanks to other producers, composers, and lyricists. • Innovation - They step out from stereotypes of music and make new organic , fresh creative,innovative music that is lacking in other groups, other groups play safe to please the people and make repetitive songs. • Artistic value -stray kid's half of group is doing dance , producing, composing, writing songs before they debut ( 3racha and Lee know backup dancer) and with skz player and skz record they always give music to the world because they love what they do. On the other hand, many other idols are coming to industry for stardom,frame and money they didn't care about music and doing other things like modeling, acting,advertising etc forgetting about their main job singing and creating music. • Genuine Music - stray kids give depth and meaning to music, categories such as " " EXPRESSION OF EMOTION'S" EXPRESSION OF LIFE" "EXPRESSION OF PEOPLE'S" Others want popularity from music. • Brilliant producers - all members are producer's 3racha is a regular member of KOMCA ,Bangchan has the most song credits -181, changbin -152, Han-148 and all other members have above 20 songs credits. Didn't see any groups with all producer members or with so many song credits. • large spectrum - they make songs about many different topics like from hellevator to rock star. astronaut, circus, school life, question, mirror, insomnia, side effects, Airoplane ,voice,my pace, who etc they have a large spectrum of songs. • Genres - they cover genres from rock , EDM, soft, Hip hop, ballad , electro, R and B , experimental music ,folk (thunderous ),heavy metal etc have like 40- 50+ gener. They have a huge discography. Didn't see this many genres in other groups. • Great Creator - stray kids are the creator and presenter of the song . That is very unique in k-pop.They put every emotion in every song. Because they know the depth of the song. Didn't feel emotion in other groups because they are just the presenter of the song . • Genius Lyricists - they are very clever,creative and unique, with many Wordplay, 3-4 different meanings in lyrics. That is very rare in the k-pop industry. Hellevator, noeasy, oddinary, chronosaurus, Rock is the example of this. •Social awareness - stray kids have the courage to bring up topics that are taboo to talk but they are important topics of youths like depression, loneliness, insomnia, phobia, side effects social pressure, etc that topics come from them is mesmerizing. And i respect them to be brave enough to bring this topic. •social work- stray kids is a one of the group they help people from donation to UNICEF,and other organisations,or with volunteer work or in EDM project or by doing social work,or with meaningful lyrics or to communicate with people to give advice to never give up, how deal with depression or they say they are always here to listen. They always help people one or other ways. • Realistic - stray kids make very realistic songs, they are relatable to the people many groups promote fantasy and imaginary concepts far from reality. • Talents - they are very talented rappers, singers and dancers. All members are singers and dancers, rappers, composers,producers,song writers and many more they have unique voice strength. This many Talents are so rare in k-pop . • Concepts - stray kid's image is like normal human beings they achieve everything by hard work which is why people feel more related to them. In k-pop others groups promote idol image like god , that normal human is unreachable to them. • connection- Stray kids is one of the groups that has deep connection with people to the point, like they are telling our story. Their music is described as "life philosophy" . Their music comes from experience. with another group you don't feel that deep connected with them . • Youth inspiration - Their journey is very inspiring. In their journey people see the hard work,how to overcome the struggle, to never give up, love others, be positive. They come this far because of hardwork and dedication. They are inspiring so many people. Many people look up to them. They are the most impactful group in the k-pop music industry.stray kid's music will be dominating in the music industry for many decades. Stray kids came from zero to top by themselves.They are working hard and achieving the success they deserve. people love Stray kids music that you not only listen to k-pop sound in their music but they give something new, fresh, innovative and experimental to the music industry with their songs. Stray kids know for quality of music and dedication for music.They are very creative and unique in music. Stray kids is inspiring to so many people. Their music is something connected with people .They give motivation, inspiration to express yourself it's ok to be unique everyone is beautiful the way you are. Lyrics are beautifully expressed with so many meanings . love the intellect, cleverness and creativity in songs. They have a very organic,fresh and unique sound. They didn't limited themself and explore the new side of music. They break many stereotypes in music. They explore so many genres and express different emotions. The more you listen to them the more you admire and become addicted to them and respect them more as artists. The music they make is connected with people with beautiful messages, inspiration and motivation . ❤❤

15:40 ngl this song sounded so off to me but then i realized JYP was in the studio for it and it all clicked ☠️ didn’t sound like purely 3racha (or even any one member) at all

WHERE can I watch the whole live NIGEL??

CAN THE NEXT GROUP BE ATEEZ

Nigel I swear I thought u were having a seizure after seungmin sang in item 🤣🤣🤣

10:43 "stop it" me lol

It can sound weird but i’m telling the truth when i say i like EVERY skz song, you are not less fan for not liking every song ofc but there’s also people who truly like every single one of their songs. The only song that i don’t like from skz is sunshine, and i’ve heard that song maybe 4 times in this 5 years.

I love 5 star my fav songs are s-class, get lit, hall of fame, youtiful, time out and fnf But I think for some songs you have to watch the mv/live performance to feel them I only liked get lit with the M/V same with fnf

Have you watched the MVs of these songs? If not, when will you watch them?

So basically Nigel loves summer songs

"if your underage get your caprisuns" had me looking around my room because I literally left to get a caprisun before he said that😭😭

Item🔥🔥🔥

NIGEL WATCH THE IN SUMMER PREFORMACE

Not me and Nigel drinking together 😭😭😭😭 period

Get FWEETBOY❤️

Nigel, do you know the japanese super star and incredible musician Fugii Kase? He has a so out of the box funny personality 😅. Please react to Fugii Kase's Tiny Desk. Thank you. BTS, The Rose and Kase are my happy pils 😊
