Stray Kids are not your typical Kpop group. Where Skz is concerned, expect the unexpected. They do not stick to one genre, so don't try to put them in a box. They're are mostly self-produced and write their own music. All 8 members can sing, rap, and dance. They're amazing!
Completely self produced* Every song in their discography has at LEAST one SKZ member (99% of the time a 3RACHA member) credited as the Main Contributor in not only the writing/composing aspects, but also in production/arrangement. 3RACHA of course, doesn't work with any co-writers on SKZ discography. They do however have a handful of industry friends whom they bring in depending on the song, as co-producers. This is a preventive measure to keep from losing their experimental ways. Basically they are micro mentoring 3RACHA. It's actually very smart of them to do. Because this is a group with something like 40+ genres and sub-genres of music within their 160+ and always growing discography. And well, you can't learn anything news from yourself I'm afraid. That said, these co-producers are credited as no more than an equal contributor on any of SKZ discography work. Fun Fact, 3RACHA have actually written and produced songs for other artists in the industry. Including the debut song for a popular solo artist. As well as a song for a Japanese group, which I believe was even chosen by their fandom to become the groups' official fan-song.
Yes, the deep voice of Felix is honestly what attracted me at first. You should also check their other songs. Their stage performance vibes are great too. They produce their own music and trying new things that’s non-kpop-ordinary. Talented bunch of young guys.
Stray Kids stands out in the Kpop industry, producing their own music they have developed a unique style which is very “Stray Kids” (they have even been credited for creating their own genre called “mala taste”). They are amazing artists, and all the members of the group can sing, rap and dance. They are extremely prolific with over 160 songs or so to their credit (all great btw). I recommend Venom, Back Door, God’s Menu and Thunderous to start.
Stray Kids are very unique with a huge discography that they 99% do themselves from the music to lyrics to choreography. Speaking of that last thing, how does Felix's (deep voice) purple hat stay on in the last bit of choreography? A song that shows just how deep he can go is Victory Song, but the one that most people first get introduced to and are amazed is God's Menu. They are rap heavy and have a lot of music that will get you moving, but they have beautiful ballads too. If you want to learn about them, I recommend the 2022 guide. They are definitely a rabbit hole to fall in to. Enjoy!
Stray Kids are a cut above everyone else. They create their own music, they all can sing, can rap, and dance. There is something for everyone. Stray Kids has a discography that is just about 150 songs deep. These guys are only in their 20s?! I slept on kpop for years and I am KICKING MYSELF. This old lady Stay is a fan of everything (80s alternative, 90s hip hop, or Broadway musicals are the jam), but Stray Kids has my musical heart and soul in a vice. This 50-something mom has forced kpop on the family, but they are on board. Captions and subtitles are not an issue, so continue on, friends. You'll have a fab time in this rabbit hole. Enjoy your time. More Stray Kids m/vs, but don't forget their live stages, dance practices, dance relays, competition shows, and variety content. This goes for just about every group in the industry. There is so much content in the kpop world to delve into. It will keep your channel in viewership for a long, long, long time. T
Stray Kids is an outlier of sorts. Their music used to be referred to as "noise music"....they are not as popular in Korea as everywhere else because of that. But they have a lot of different genres in their music, not just fast paced bangers. They all can sing BEAUTIFULLY and have many ballads, pop, rock, slower songs.
BTS is my ultimate group who I love with SKZ being a close second. I’ve never been able to see BTS live but I literally went to SKZ last Saturday and it was honestly one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to, and I’ve been to close to 100 concerts like AC/DC, Metallica, Linkin Park, The Offspring so some pretty epic concerts!
all the suggestions below are great. God's Menu is considered their breakout hit. Domino doesn't have an MV, but the dance practice is fire, and there is an all English version.
The difference between them and a lot of the kpop groups is that they produce and create their own songs. 3 of the members. called 3racha (the rappers), are the one who make the songs with some help here and there. They are having their own sound in that genre, so you can check more of them. Thank you for the reaction!
Their new song “THERE” totally different vibe (calm love/breakup song) - SKZ maybe went through many genres from Acoustic like Another Day to psychedelic trance like Side Effects - and they are a self producing group who participate in most of the songwriting, composing and arrangement of the songs!!
Stray Kids is definitely not like any what you call Kpop. I only like Stray Kids because they are unique & incredible. I find them mind-blowing with everything they put out on the table be it Production, Music, Performances, Concepts, Messages, multi-Talents and Diversity, ect.... It's better not to label them or put them in a box, once you get into them and check other groups you will most definitely realize it ~
Stray kids (skz) is a self-produced group. 3racha (the producer unit) made almost of their music by themself. They have more than 140 songs with so many genre (and skz have their own genre called 'mala taste'). I highly recommend you to react to God's Menu and Thunderous!! They will never disappoint you guys, trust me :))
Stray Kids has a song for every vibe. Gods Menu, Venom and Freeze give you three different styles from the same group. There is also a sub-group called 3RATCHA that really breaks the mold. They truly are GOATS!
Omg yes! I love Skz! The member with the deep voice is Felix. His range is insane! He takes a lot of the low verses/chorus's/hooks, etc. But he has his own song called Deep End, I recommend it just to experience his vocal range! But for all of Skz, please react to Gods menu, venom, thunderous, and back door!
Ayyeee, my dudes! I'm so glad you made it to doing this react video. As the comments below suggested, I fully support you guys doing more react to SkZ stuff. Absolute 🔥 band. Super proud of your success. Love you guys!
Thanks for the reaction ⚡⚡⚡ I would like to clarify that K-POP is not a genre, it is a mixture of genres and styles, many times they follow similar steps, of course many of the producers they work with will give that style to a group. If you delve into the world of Kpop, my advice is not to be fooled or influenced by what the comments say in their entirety, because many speak from their fanaticism and instead of informing, they misinform more. You can research on your own time. I've seen people say about many other groups "they produce their songs" 👀 dude, writing 1 verse in the song doesn't make you a producer of that song or all of their songs 😩 Stray Kids actually owns and contributes almost 90% of their songs, and they are involved in their entire discography from the beginning, and even before debut, they were releasing music without permission from the company, you can still listen to their pure rap songs. and raw and hip hop, his "3RACHA" accounts still exist on RU-vid and Instagram. Personally, Stray Kids is a good group both in music and in people, what I like the most is that by having a lot of control over their music, you find out how the idea started, everything about its development or its insecurities at the time of create it. Stray Kids get help especially from arrangers, only one member is more involved in arranging and that is BangChan (3RACHA) together with him, other members are more involved in lyrics and composition almost completely. They love making music, so much so that they release songs without belonging to albums, without notice or promotion, just for you to listen to on RU-vid. --------- Number of accredited in KOMCA to the members of Stray Kids: Bang Chan (3RACHA): 144 Changbin (3RACHA): 125 Han(3RACHA): 122 Hyunjin: 20 I.N: 19 Felix: 19 Seungmin: 17 Lee Know: 17 -------- SKZ's involvement in music production Participation in the production of SKZ albums Writing: 99.8% Compose: 93.7 Arranging: 42.3% ------------- Clear example of the song to which they reacted: 02. "MANIAC" (lead album track) - Lyrics by: BangChan (3RACHA), Changbin (3RACHA) Han (3RACHA) - Composed by: BangChan(3RACHA), Changbin(3RACHA) Han(3RACHA), Versachoi - Arrangement: Versachoi, BangChan (3RACHA)
I think is a good introduction to kpop and a good start. They are also very unique, because they are involved in producing and writing all of their songs. Just keep going, I am curious about your options.
Stray kids are amazingly odd in what they do . They don't have a clear defined genre of music they do what they feel. When you listen to their albums all the songs are great you can't but like all the songs in the album. Even fans of other groups say that stray kids are the best self producing group in kpop.
I fell into the kpop rabbit hole a few years ago and haven't turned back. It truly is a fascinating genre. With that being said, Stray Kids... they're the real deal. As a matter of fact, many say they are their own genre. Thank you for the reaction!
Skz have a wide variety of different genres in songs like time out, awaken, secret secret, boxer ect which are all completely different. I also recommend them 👍👍 They're known for their loud music which would refer to songs like gods menu and the sound though 🙃 They also are completely self produced. Three of the members write every song and have since even before they debuted!!
I straight up started learning Korean because of Stray Kids. It's tough when they're stuck in your head all day and you can't remember the lyrics 🤣 check out Double Knot by stray kids, they also have an English version of the song with a performance video
Just to let you know they don’t just to Pop or HipHop even if its what they start with … they can do almost any genre! #Straykids are self-created self-produced self-choreographed 8-member group that originally debuted with nine in March 2018 but during one of their comebacks the oldest decided to leave the group b/c of personal reasons (unsolved story) followed by ANTI-rumored dating controversy then later returned as a soloist. Anyways, long story short the group has always been hardcore since day one.
Really hope you guys check out more! - Maniac is a great song, but it's almost tame compared to some others haha. One of the big reasons they're as popular as they are is because they write, produce etc like 99.99999% of their tracks. The leader (Bang Chan) also picked all of the members himself (a rarity in K-Pop, typically it's the labels who put groups together). The videos are always fantastic, some of the best transitions! I suggest "God's Menu" "Back Door" "Thunderous" and "Venom"
Thank you for reacting to this self-producing group, Stray Kids!💚 we would recommend you guys to react to “God’s Menu” “Thunderous” & “Back Door” those are SKZ’s main titled album songs with amazing Music Videos🔥
Loved your reaction!! You have summoned the Stay's! As a fan myself and overall Kpop/idol culture enthusiast I'll tell you unbiasedly that SKZ are among the top, leading in sales, streams, and views. Their current world tour, started last year, is also a verification of that success. What stands out to me is first and foremost is the music, then individual members personalities, charismatic performances, and creative choreography. I could go into detail, but I'm sure your comments have shared a lot of helpful info already. As long as you keep an open mind to something sonically and culturallu different, you might find something you'll really like :D I recommend God's Menu and Thunderous which really show you SKZ's color, but tbh I could recommend ANY title track.
Thats the thing with kpop, when people dont know kpop they immediately think of cute, catchy, sweet and colourful songs with some high notes. But most dint realise that kpop covers every thing, kpop artist make songs with a mix if pop, rap, rock, classical and full on beautiful ballads. Thats why i love kpop, i can find whatever i want, their will always be a group or arist to fullfl that wish
I like how they chose Stray Kids as the first kpop group to react to. Stray Kids is very different from other kpop groups bc their music is diverting away from the typical kpop formula. Their music is great but considered "noise/noisy" music to Korean fans bc it isn't the typical poppy cheery kpop sounds with repetitive music chords and catchy dance moves.
#StraykidsWorldDomination These guys never fail to amaze me and I'm glad I'm a stay forever. These guys sefo know what they are doing and doing it right. This MV is also insane as words can't begin to explain how this group is wrecking me badly this comeback and don't even get me started on the hair especially Hyunjins red hair, BangChans blue hair, Changbins black hair with green highlights and Felixs blonde mullet and Lee Knows purple/pink hair
Actually if u focus and listen the chorus u can hear that it was sang by two different person 😌in the first chorus it was felix & in the second one it was hyunjin 😄 I needed to say this🤭 but hey, welcome to the stray kids rabbithole 😁 + here's a two my faves: thunderous & freeze 🤭 have a nice day 🤗
Kpop is much much more than your average pop (specially here in the West)... as you will see the more you discover the genre..each song and mv have a concept each scene has deeper meanings and symbolisms, their choreo often matches the songs lyrics and too much more to talk about
A lot of people put stereotypes on kpop, a real common one is what you were talking about with like high registers or like kind of bubble pop, which there is nothing wrong with bubble pop it's a very fun genre, when in actuality it's very diverse, even the groups themselves are very diverse covering multiple genres in their discography with music that grows with them. There is a group for everyone, and stray kids are one of my favorites, they are self produced, they are crazy talented, and they are a very fun group.
I will say if you listen to gods menu then you have to listen to back door right after. It is like prequel(gods menu) sequel(back door) and if you listen to thunderous, domino and cheese at the same time, all of them are on the same album (first 3 songs on the no easy album) and they are songs to the haters addressing that they just make noisy music or hate they just get in general.
Amazing and honest reaction Can't wait for more SKZ!!!! 🥰🫶✨🫶🥰 I don't know if anyone has suggested to you they're song "domino" is one of my favorites, they don't have an official MV but i recommend to you the dance practice ✨
Thank you for your reactions loved it. The thing to me about k-pop is not that they have the formula for success is cause let me tell you k-pop has been around a long time and there are a lot and I do mean a lot of k-pop idols, and groups and not all are successful or well known. Yes the do have the formula for entertainment because going to one of their concerts or viewing it on line they are very entertaining and have the wow factor. But that does not always sell records unless you have an amazing song that everyone likes, because you don't see these guys dancing when you buy the cd or listen to them while streaming. With Stray Kids they are a self producing group so they have more control of what they put out, including the meaning of the lyrics. They do love to experiment with their music, combining different genres, beats, melodies, and sounds in one song. They live and breath what they do so much it comes natural to them. Han has been known to write the lyrics to a song in 15 min. Felix is the guy with the deep vocals. Not only can he do a very low register tone he can also hit high notes and all in between. He was born in Australia and speaks fluent English. If you have time and want to get to know more about these amazing talented young men I recommend a guide that is not also informative but very fun video. It is a log video though and created last year. A lot has happened since then so its not update from this year. Stray Kids puts out a lot of content and music, even songs not on an album on a weekly basis. They are getting ready to release their first full Japanese Album The Sound in a few days. It is an amazing song. Here is the link to that guide. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2uVUVPfQ4R8.html by IceTye
Normal reaction to felix' deep voice: wow....this voice...how deep...from this guy... Your reaction: ok... So happy that it was different by the second time he appeared.
I’m so glad you like this! SKZ are so talented and they really are just amazing in the way that they make almost everything themselves! They have such a unique and awesome sound
After "God's Menu", I would suggest you react to their "Thunderous". Actually, Stray Kids a.k.a. SKZ produces lots of bangers. Yep, they produce their own songs. I have so many faves of SKZ's songs...Victory Song, Miroh, Venom, Charmer, Domino, Levanter etc etc etc
Even though they are considered kpop because they are Korean Stray Kids have made their own genre “mala tang” (name from mala soup which is sweet and spicy soup) because they have the tendency to mix different genres in their songs. So yeah they technically are kpop but their song are not at all typical to that genre. They have 8 members and self produce most of their stuff. Hope you’ll dive into them more they are INCREDIBLE to say the least. Enjoyy! ☺️
4:34 I don't know how many kpop groups you know, but I want you to know that the voice variety is literally endless. If you search, you will find many idols with a voice as deep as Felix's but and obviously they are not the same voices. You also find female rappers with deep voices as well. Kpop is a very vast world and it's not a genre of music either, it's it's just a way of saying that it's music in the korean language, and it can be in the form of rock, pop, ballad, r&b etc etc.
You should check out, "Battle Ground" Also there are 3 members of Stray kids that made a subunit called 3racha, they are the ones who mainly rap and they also produce all the music. They made a rap song which you might like called "3racha"
Felix is the one with the deep voice;)......That's The "Felix Effect", lol. please check out GOD"S Menu, Thunderous, Freeze, Venom, Domino, Hellevator....the list goes on....welcome the rabbit hole!! These guys are A-mazing! They do it all....write and self produce!!
LOL I love how usually people get hooked by felix's deep voice..(I suggest "Victory song" by these cats where he GOES OFF...) The way they always incorporate the lyrics into the dance is just ugh..love thes cats. love the reaction ♡♡♡
You said it yourself, one song will send you down a rabbit hole. Next you really need to react to Venom, FREEZE & the one they only put out 6 days ago called The Sound.
If you decide to react to any more kpop, from any kpop group, it will probably help if you have this bit of knowledge in mind ahead of time: Kpop isn't a genre/style -- it's an industry, and it encompasses innumerable styles/genres. Yes, there's a mainstream, middle-of-the-road sound that's especially well liked (especially domestically) and is the stereotypical kpop sound people think of, but that sound itself isn't kpop, just the generically inoffensive middle ground. And some groups happily make their successful home on that middle ground. But groups like SKZ (especially SKZ, actually) veer far outside that and get a _lot_ of sh1t for it (also especially domestically) because they don't have that safe, comfortable sound -- yet they're still kpop because they are artists in the Korean popular music industry. Anyway, yeah, if you go in without the understandable preconceptions about what kpop is, you'll probably be freer to evaluate and appreciate each artist/group for their individual styles, skills, sounds, and contributions rather than being distracted by mentally fitting everyone into one across-the-board formulaic monolith. That might make the experience more immersive and even more enjoyable.
Kpop is not pop though, despite the name. Kpop has a mix of genres including edm, hip hop, jazz, rock, R&B... Basically anything goes. They mix it all.
Another amazing kpop group is a new group called Xdinary Heroes, they are a punk-rock/rock kpop self producing group as well! NewJeans and Les Sserafim are also newer kpop groups and they have unique sounds as well!
The kpop is an amazing genre of music and there is a lot to discover about the girls groups and boys group and each one unique and different from the other And these is my favorite check it out when u are free 🤷♀️🖤 : Bts ofc / Seventeen / txt / enyphan Mamamoo /Twice / blackpink/ gidle / red velvet
Stray Kids tiene canciones en varios generos, unas muy raras pero muy buenas: Side Effects, The tortoise and the hare, easy, etc. Otro grupo que tambien es muy diferente es BigBang, de ellos pueden ver: BaeBae, Bang Bang Bang, Fxxk it, etc. Gracias por esta reacción.
Stray kids Is not tipycal kpop group..they write and produce they music of different styles..please react to Venom, Good's menu, DOMINO, Thunderus, Double knot, or SIDE EFFECT 🤙 ✌💕
Greetings from Germany 🌸 I highly recommend to react to SKZ guide of 2023 or 2024. They are quite long, but worth watching and very informative. Also please consider reacting to SKZ "top line, get lit, 3Racha, Victory Song , Easy" , just to name a few.... SKZ have enriched my life. ✌️
