Watching Stray Kids perform live for the first time and continuing my deep dive into Kpop! My band: open.spotify.c... Socials: Twitter: / wrighteousj Tiktok: / wrighteousj Instagram: / wrighteousj
I like that u can pick up the inner ear issues n compliment them for going on. that’s genuine reaction there. Stray Kids are well known for singing live for all their performances and their music is different from typical k-pop so I look forward to more of your reactions to stray kids music. You will enjoy all of em I guarantee it!
Maniac, God's Menu, Charmer, Domino. Double Knot, ITEM, Hall of Fame, S Class, just all of it! ❤ Softer side of things, Secret Secret, Neverending Story, Gone Away, Collision, Chill.
No!! I was ready to binge all your reactions to Stray Kids, is this the first?! Lol A lot of us Stay (fandom name) were busy with their latest comeback- 3rd album 5-Star, but i hope they find you and drop the paragraphs of info and recommendations! As a few have said, Skz (shortened form of name) are self-produced, which is rare in kpop. 3 members (Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han) form a subunit named 3Racha (three racha- play on Sriracha the hot sauce) the producing unit in the group. These boys were writting music/lyrics at like 16-18 even before debut. Bang Chan (English name Chris- hes actually Australian) was a trainee for 7 years (usual trainee lasts for like 2+ years) and was allowed to pick his members, picked/helped decide the group name, and even wrote the Stray Kids logo in his own handwriting. He has a hand in almost everything skz puts out. Changbin is considered the (if not one of) the fastest rappers in kpop-the man is aggressive with it, and Han is known throughout the industry as an ace as he can sing, rap and dance extremely well! The other boys are soo very talented as well, but this message is already crazy long! Live recommendations: ive seen MAMA, but id like to add Kindom Legendary War to that list too! It was a competition show they performed in a year or 2 ago and man did they rock it! Subbing now to catch new vids!!
@@RM_formerlyjustRMbutYTsucks Lol I stumbled in after Maxident era and learned all my Skz knowledge from watching ppl react to their music on yt. The comment sections were always brimming with helpful Stays sharing A LIST of song recs and answering any and all questions about the members. I always tell people listening to Skz for the first time how amazing Stays are as well as the boys! Actually I'm pretty sure I've seen you a few times in these comments! Lol keep up the good work Stay! 💖💖
@@ayba9177 🤣 If you read a bunch of comments sections to get info, then yeah, I guarantee you've run across my unsolicited blather. I'm constitutionally incapable of not infodumping. Thank you!
@@RM_formerlyjustRMbutYTsucks You're very welcome! And thank you for sharing Skz knowledge to those that don't know! Lol gets them down the rabbit hole faster!
I would love to see you react to Thunderous, S-class and Gods menu i don’t know if you’re planning on reacting to live performances of these songs as well but tbh i would love that cause their performances are absolutely fire 🔥
Felix and leader Bangchan is Australian. Stray Kids self produce they just releases their album 5-Star. please do live performance of S-Class 🫶🏻💚💚💚💚 Mama 22 is def n must see 👊🏻
I saw someone recommend the live performances at the japan showcase 2019 "hi stay" and YES! ESPECIALLY MIROH AND MY PACE AGHH! Literal goosebumps, I can't put it into words!!
You’ll hear a lot how they wrote their own music, but it’s true, the write 💯 of the songs, produce 90% and arrange 50%. I would try to find their performance of Levanter at the Gaon music awards. It’s ridiculously great, though a slower song.
@@wrighteousj If you really get into them and want to learn more, there is a long and updated guide to Stray kids from a creator named TeaNoSuga, her guides are usually the best around and stay (stray kids fans) will usually watch the whole thing with you, if you choose to react. Our guys have so much chemistry on stage because the members were chosen by their leader, rather than the company forcing pieces together that might not fit. Charmer is a great performance too, as is Miroh. Some of my favorite songs lyrically are Mirror, My Pace, Voices, Side Effects, Levanter, Lonely Street, Chronosaurus and Hall of Fame - though Hall of fame doesn’t have an m/v so fanmade lyric videos are a necessity. Favorite performances - Levanter at Gaon awards, Venom/Maniac at Mama 2022, Wolfgang from Mnet 2021, Cheese at Mama 2021, Miroh on the introduction stage of Kingdom, I’ll be your man from kingdom, gods menu/side effects from kingdom, god’s ddu du ddu du from kingdom, and Charmer from their Seoul concert. (Those are a few off the top of my head). They have a huge discography of over 150 songs (probably more like 170+ now).
THANK YOU for saying that every artist uses tracks bc so many ppl who don’t like stray kids always say “it’s all backing track it’s not live” and I’m like what? 💀 like they act like skz is the only group who uses backing tracks
U should definitely react to their kingdom performances because those are top tier as far as live performances go I highly recommend god's dududududu, god's menu and side effects mash up stage and I'll be your man for a esp vocal heavy song
Fun fact : stray kids are a self produced group, they also make their own choreographies and write their own lyrics Also next song recommendation: s-class (latest released title track), maniac and God’s menu
This was such a cool reaction. Loved hearing from someone who is a singer/artist/performer. Such a unique perspective! Thank you for reacting to stray kids. Can't wait for you to do more! I'll check out your bts reactions, too!
fun fact! i just had to say this since you commented on the great production but stray kids are a self-produced band!! three members produce almost all of their songs so they definitely have a very distinct and unique sound:))
What I like abt BTS and Stray Kids is that they both cover a lot of genres. They have a wide range of different kinds of songs because they like to experiment and explore.
This is why i love professionals reacting to skz, they acknowledge the track that exists there which even the leader, Chan, says. they have a back track that supports them but they still sing Live. It's their adlibs that always remind people that their mics are STILL on . Most kpop mainstream stans yap about lip syncing just because they still hear the artists' voice on the track Oh, they have predetermined camera which so that they dont have trouble later on because they have fancams. It's funny when their camera man loses the artist tho And the last bit is called an ending fairy when i think is new thing along with the fan cams to add a fanservice after a performance.
WE ALL USE TRACK. What matters to me is that you’re still singing, and they’re still singing. Everybody just needs to accept that it’s to create an even more immersive experience 😂🤘❤️
The one wearing the hat is Hyunjin and you are right with the sweating so the more impressive it is that Hyunjin is wearing a hat cz he is the member that looks like he's fresh out of the pool after performances. Someone suggested the MAMA 2022 performance of them and there in the ending fairy you can see how much he sweats even without a hat😂 (if u consider watching it he is the one with blue hair) thank you for reacting 🤗 skz performances are just impressive 😍
You'll probably love these guys. These guys are extremely talented. Not sure if you know already but they have a producing team in their group called 3racha who makes like 95% of their discography. At least 1 of the 3 members in 3racha has their name in the producing list for every song
Stray Kids are my favorite artists at the moment! I absolutely love their music! They produce their music, just like BTS, and they are great live performers! Their lyrics hit home too... Especially songs like "Hellevator", "Voices", "Secret secret", "Slump", "19", and more! If I were to recommend other live performances it would definitely be the ones from the , it would be great if you could do them all 😂, but if not, at least ''My pace'', ''Miroh'', ''Victory song'', and for a more emotional one "I am YOU"! You really get to see them interact with the crowd! I have not seen many people react to them (which is a shame!!). Some other live performances would be the ones from "The First Take" channel, but there is no live audience, similar to BTS's Tiny Desk Concert! They do have english subtitles though! I especially recommend "Slump" and "Scars" from that channel! You could also watch the Kingdom performances, ESPECIALLY "I'll be your man"! It's a cover, but they changed the original song a lot, and it really displays the skills of both the vocalists and rappers. Even dancers! Once you listen to more songs I really recommend checking out a guide (esp Teanosuga's most recent 2023 updated guide)! It helps you get to know them on a more personal level! :) They are very hardworking and are formed in quite a unique way. They were essentially an experiment group created by a big company through a survival show, however the company was really not that involved with them and they started gaining the popularity they have now years after debut! The company let the leader decide who his groupmates were going to be, let him create the team name, the logo, and he's actively involved in producing 99.9% of their discography along with other 2 members! They are known as 3racha, the producing team of Stray Kids! The other members have helped write/compose a fair amount of songs too! They even contribute to choreography! I can't wait to see your future videos on them! New sub! :)
i love your reaction omg, you noticed all the fun things and the details. Stray kids write and produce all their music themselves, so its interesting when someone compliments the arrangement of the song.
@wrighteousj really ? Thats awesome. Honestly, that makes me wanna check out your stuff. I was already intrigued by how engaged ur audience was in the clips u showed 👍 in kpop its pretty rare for a group to completely do ALL their music on their own, esp the title tracks, which is what set stray kids apart for me. And obv the fact that it is actually very good. Their newest album S-class is a no-skip album fr, its SO good. Def give it a listen if you can!
Hell yeah, Stray Kids, let's go! You're definitely going to enjoy them. I'm sure you will get a lot of good suggestions for songs of theirs to listen to. One of my favorite live performances of theirs is the 2020 MAMA awards version of Victory Song. I'll spare you the backstory to it, but I'll say they were ANGRY with it. It's soooo good. Besides the more popular tracks that you'll already hear about, I think that you personally will really like Muddy Water. It only has 4 of them in it. Listen to the first 3 seconds and I guarantee you will want to listen to the rest. If you want a music video suggestion, I'd say Red Lights. (with just Bangchan and Hyunjin) It's very sexy. My last suggestion is a recent video they posted to their channel that has them recording the title track of their new album. "Stray Kids [INTRO "★★★★★ (5-STAR)"] Part 3 : Recording" I know other people will have mentioned it, but they self-produce and direct the majority of their songs, so it's fun to watch them in action. Have fun with Stray Kids! As a multistan of many groups, I'm glad to see you watching more. There's so much talent out there.
2020 MAMA Awards-Victory Song Any Kingdom Legendary War stage (yes, they are live) 2022 MAMA Awards -Venom, Maniac 2023 GoldenDisk Awards -SuperBoard, Freeze, Case 143 2023Music Bank Paris 2023 Lotte Duty Free Family Concert Give those Stray Kids live performances a watch!
BTW, all of their songs are made by themselves. They have a production team called 3RACHA! The other members also can do songs! They're really creative boys. I love them so much❤
They know where the camera is... Because.. Each one of them has a dedicated camera for them. The edits hace parts of each one.. They are told which one is theirs and they have to look at their own ones... 😊😅
The cameras are prechoreographed and they do practice runs while wearing big name tags so that the camera men know hows who and who to focus on. You should see the camera work from Inkigayo its been crazy lately. The thing at the end is called an ending fairy. The members that do it usually get chosen by the broadcast station or sometimes through bets and games (like making them do something cringey at the end, or get a special spotlight)
Thanks for your reaction to SKZ! It was so cool to hear your perspective! You've probably already seen, but these guys self-produce and their music is so amazing and diverse. For another live show, I'd recommend MAMA 2020 (victory song), MAMA 2021 (thunderous), MAMA 2022 (maniac+venom) or AAA 2022 (charmer, great song awesome dance intro). Also their new comeback, all the S Class live performances have been amazing so far!
I think that you’ll really like straykids. They are different from all of the other K-pop groups and are very unique with there style and way of doing things.
I love their The FirstTake videos. If you're not familiar with it, it's a Japanese segment in which the artist has to perform and record a whole song in one take. They've done a bunch of those already, and they are my favorites. Of course, you have the MAMAs and I highly recommend the Kingdom Performances. For Kingdom, be careful of copyright issues. Some creators just blur the videos.
I think you would really enjoy their recent music video "S-Class" off of their newest album, 5-Star: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JsOOis4bBFg.html
Hi, I've been ARMY for 4 years and Stray Kids grabbed me the same way BTS did - I've listened to lots of K-pop artists (groups and solo) in that time - think you'd like "Maniac", "God's Menu", "Thunderous" - but way too many to mention and they are all bangers (maybe ask Nova too) - she'll be stoked!
Was surprised to see Stray kids reaction, I knew it will happen eventually 😌 Felix grabs everyone’s attention :) their choreo is always super impressive!!
I really recommend their mama 22 live performance it was crazy, + they have just released their 5-star album ( s-class , Super Bowl , hall of fame, topline ) I recommend those tracks , in case u want something calm and fresh ( youtiful, collision , FNF) Lol ig I recommended the whole album
Stray kids reactions by professionals is my favorite content in RU-vid yeah!!! More SKZ reactions please 🌟🫂✨🫂🌟🫂✨ Edit: i think you will enjoy they're live performance of "domino" Again thank you so much ✨🫶✨
I think sometimes they make “mistakes” on purpose because so many people accuse them of lip synching so they may do something small like that to tell the haters hey we are singing live.
Stray Kids are such a cool band if you love the technical side of things. Because they completely self produce and their leader picked the members they've had a full handle on everything from the beginning, and as a group they're always studying and testing themselves to improve. Their live stages are so impressive, and they will always remix a song for awards performances and stuff so it sounds new or has a different vibe for each performance. Kpop as a whole blew me away with the professionalism and skill of the performers. You should check out how they performed the Japanese version of this song on The First Take sometime, or any other live performances because they changed it up a few times. Hope you continue to explore Stray Kids! I'm excited to see you perspective.
Thanks for the reaction!! Stray Kids are simply amazing and very versatile with singing, rapping. I recommend watching the performance of "Neverending story"You will see the incredible vocals they have:
Felix deep voice is the best...not only deep...he is the deepest. 4th gen group now really want to have a deep voice member. Buat sorry other voice is meh... Felix voice is the real deal ..
Yay Stray Kids! ❤❤❤ looking forward to more reactions to them and their MVs are amazing! Also Nova is gorgeous 👑 I recommend “Thunderous” “Venom” “Backdoor” and “Maniac” to start with ❤
Welcome to the Stray Kids side of internet and I hope you're ready to read a looot of requestions bc Stay (the fandom name) are worst than proud soccer moms, we will be there to teach you everything you permit us to do lol Stray Kids are 100% self produced, since the lyrics, track, melodies until the very end of the song production, it's all by their producing team 3RACHA (composed by 3 SKZ members: Bang Chan, Changbin and Han), they also have some control in the creation of their own choreographies (together with other contracted choreographers) with their dance sub-unit DANCERACHA. They are extremely talented and are called the aces of kpop because everyone is multitalented, even if that sounds boastful coming from a fan, but it's true, Stray Kids don't have fixed positions (mainly rapper, main dancer, main vocal etc.) because all of them can fulfill all roles perfectly. About Felix, the one with the deep voice, he is recognized for it, everyone who has seen anything about Stray Kids knows who Felix is, but what few know is that he has a incredible vocal range, going from the lowest tones to the highest with surprising ease, in addition to his angelic voice when he sings. If interested, I recommend listening to Deep End by him, unfortunately I don't think there is any live version, but the recorded version already speaks for itself!! Thank you for giving the boys a chance, I hope you enjoyed it and allow us to show you more of this universe!!
Stray kids are amazing and you can tell they have a lot of fun with their songs! They also write and produce their own stuff too! :) You should also check out the band ATEEZ as well. They are also phenomenal!
Thanks for your reaction! I really love your rect to BTs and now my Skz!! I think you can really like Ateez too! They are great, their recent cb is phenomenal! Bouncy is a bop! Song of the year for sure!
Stray Kids rap line is called 3 Racha (spelling may be wrong) they are the driving force for the bands music production. These guys won Kingdom legendary War and are by far one of the best all round K-Pop bands when it comes to Presentation, Originality and Performance. While your down this Rabbit hole as a Singer I think you will enjoy a Band called BtoB if it gives you a clue to their vocal commitment their fan base is called MELODY.
Because you're a musician and appreciate good music regardless of the genre, we all have a lot of respect for you. Love watching your reactions. It may be too soon for you to delve into another group but I think you would love Ateez. A slightly harder edge. They're amazing.
I didn't know Stay Kids was until I watched them on "The Kingdom" The live performances they did on that show instantly made me a fan. So I'd say react to any of those then for music videos Thunderous, God's menu. Maniac and their new one S-Class would be my next picks.
OMG this was such a fun reaction! I love your perspective as a musician and performer yourself- very cool! I will be checking out your work :) In terms of live performances for Stray Kids the Mama awards are fantastic but my favorite is God’s Du Du Du, it’s incredible what they can create on stage 🤯🤯🤯
Its really enjoyable to watch your reaction!! I really love Stray Kids. They impressed me with their songs and performances every time. I would like to watch your new reactions for them! 🥰
Their best performance is ‘Pray, I’ll be Your Man’ when it comes to their singing and production. It’s not one of their actual songs but it showcases them as a group and individually perfectly. Check it out; Or don’t, whatever 😉
Do more Stray kids 😍 love your reactions 👌 I recommend kingdom: i'll be your man, Domino, Topline, Leave, Megaverse, Taste etc.. I'm sure you gonna love them 😍
they also barely use playback. but since theyre dancing (hard and energetic) choreos, they kinda have to. the only time they lip synk is when theyre filming a M/V! :)
Love how you're learning stuff so..... think about your cameraman next time and give him a moment down the lens, see how it comes out on the other side 😁 (and show us)
most of their songs including this one are written and produced by 3 of their members in particular their leader... something else i give them cudos for
I am Army first but i like Stray Kids. I dont love all their songs but overall they are very good, fun to watch. They are self produced too. They have their sound and they experiment and sometimes it does not work for me but thats just preference. (I realy dont like Venom lol). They are only three groups i know all members by name lol. BTS, Stray Kids and Enhypen. I know some members of other groups but since i dont care for more than two-three songs from each i dont care to learn.😂 My favourite tracks from Stray Kids are Back Door, Charmer, Thunderous and Red lights (two member song).
I'm like that with every group but Stray Kids and NCT. I know a few people here and there but don't like the music well enough to bother learning the rest.
Loved your reaction! You had some really good comments, so I can't wait to see what else you have to say when you check them out next! If I had to choose a song I would probably say Maniac is the next one to check out, but any of these: Back door, God's Menu, or Thunderous, are all good songs to check out when your just getting into them! Another personal favorite, especially for the dance routine they do when preforming it is Domino, so I would also highly recommend checking it out as well. (Also some older good ones are Miroh, Awkward Silence, and Side Effects. And these are some other good ones that I wouldn't necessarily do next: Freeze, Cheese.)
if you’re looking for more vocal performance instead of rap i would suggest “neverending story” they have posted the live performance. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0Dk-27B5Uzg.html another great performance they’ve done is “i’ll be your man” on a show named kingdom legendary war. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8_pLQnZ09Hk.html
Hyunjin, the one with the hat is the main dancer who also raps and has a beautiful voice ( they all do) but is not in the Kingdom performances unfortunately. Keep an eye out for his facial expressions when dancing, he is a master at using the camera.
I just found your channel (because and for Stray Kids) and I am definitely a fan of your reactions. I love the way you acknowledge and compliment difficult aspects. I have felt disappointed concern (it's an emotion I am really not sure how to articulate) because I know about lip syncing accusations. They don't deny it, but it is mostly actual vocals (I think I saw a 80/20 indicated but I can't recall the source-- I feel like it's more than 80, but I can't know, of course). Every time I see a miss, my reaction is oh, no, more fodder for the haters. I love how you explained the tracks as support work and acknowledged that they are, in fact, singing -- while dancing. Their choreo never stops. I love watching dance practice videos (some more than the actual MV) because of the choreo. There are so many more out there... I hope you keep 'em comin' 😊
BTS is very good, but... I have no desire to listen to their songs until the end. I can live without their songs, but... You listen to "Topline" by SKZ!!! I can't live without this song of theirs now! With their songs, I often get it! Their Mr. Christopher is great as a composer and as a leader! What do you think about it? Have you heard "Topline"? And that's not all! They stage some of their songs as a synthesis of a K-pop song and a mini-rock-ballet performance (this is the first time I saw such productions from them)! And they do it superbly with elements of ballet aesthetics with an emphasis on significant poses! They have plenty of rock drive like sports dancers (which can "break" anything!) of rock ballet! YES! they are dope!
