THE MEGA STRAY KIDS REACTION IS HERE! 🙌🔥 This was a highly requested video to have some of my most popular SKZ reactions in one video for people to enjoy all at once and for those who may have not seen them before! Let me know if you'd like to see more videos like this!
Stray Kids have totally broken the K-pop mold. I started listening to them a few years ago and love everything they’ve done! What a talented group of young men!
Me too. Longtime Metal Head, Rap and Blues fan. Have been a fan of SKZ for a while now, but am branching out to Ateez too. Never been a fan of Brit Boy Bands - too poptastic. But SKZ are just amazing covering so many genres in their songs and bringing the energy and slick productions. Love their thumping bass and clever lyrics.
I’ve seen SKZ live and they actually bring in so many metal and old school rock samples and transitions and undertones… it’s amazing!! Funny enough, as I was watching, I had a thought that even my metal head friends would love this. And I guess I was right! 😊
@die_jaronmars4698 someone gave me shit for accidentally typing f3lix instead of felix once... asked what the 3 meant and if it was a slur. No, I just have fat fingers, lol!
"Dude, just get that voice and inject it into my veins", "His voice, I love it...go back, I want more of him! -- Haha, that's my exact reaction to Felix's Voice, Allonsyyy!
The song Thunderous comes from Stray Kid's 'No Easy' album, which is word play on the word noisy. They've gotten hate for making music that is loud like pots and pans, especially in Korea. When SKZ refer to themselves as the famous thunderous ones they are basically saying they are loud and they won't apologize for it. They instead are proud of it. They are also a self-producing group who make 99% of their own music. They are very attentive to the image they create as a group. I'd highly recommend listening to other songs from the 'No Easy' album. Awesome reaction dude!
The joke in stayville is that there is so much money in the budget for MVs since JYP saves so much with 3RACHA writing, composing, arranging, and producing themselves. If you are a metal head, you’ll love Stray Kids! Totally recommend Hellavator, LaLaLaLa, Megaverse, Venom, JJAM, Side Effects, and Freeze. Thanks for your reaction & looking forward to more ❤
the "I could listen to him all day" referring to felix, and the "He's just visually striking, you just wanna look at him" referring to hyunjin was so real
I am 67 and discovered stray kids a couple of months ago. I am completely addicted. They are so accomplished. The music, the dancing, the lyrics are fantastic. I could go on.....😂.
8:18 I don’t know how to explain but for me, SKZ is uniquely good at “flexing” in a way that *brings you along with them.* The actual vibe is less that they’re better than anyone else or something (why compete when you’re doing your own thing anyway?) and more just being the most awesome version of yourself possible, haha.
I'm a Metal/Rock fan as well (in my mid fifties), and came across Stray kids about a month ago. Was watching a recording of their Melbourne concert last night and wishing i was there. They dont fit the typical Boy band genre - thankfully, as ive never liked a single boy band before! I would happily go to one of Stray kids concerts.
I discovered Stray Kids about a year ago and they are still over half of what I listen to. The thing that impressed me the most is the fact that they write their own music and lyrics! They are so talented!! And they’re sweet and supportive of each other, humble /appreciative toward their fans and so funny! They make me smile every day.
I’m 55 and became one months ago from the algorithms…THANK YOU UNIVERSE! lol, it’s so refreshing to see and experience this band, their music, their personalities and videos! I’ve watched their vlogs and they are wholesome and genuine…which feels so rare now adays! 💥❤️🔥
As a teenager I love New Kids on the Block I am about to be 50 years old in January I found stray kids like a month and a half ago and I've been utterly addicted I feel like a teenager again Felix is my absolute favorite
@Allonsyyyy The reason the Back Door sign lit up is they have a Song called "Back Door" Which is a continuation of "God's Menu". Also Chan Changbin and Han produce all of the music. They sometimes have help from others but all the songs usually have 3racha. That''s what they call themselves as the producers.
Welcome to the rabbit hole! Stray Kids are very prolific, experimental, and give tons of variety in the types of music they make. They write and produce something like 98% of their music. Their producing team is called 3racha, and it is three members from the group. Bang Chan, who is the leader, is primarily the composer and beat maker, but he does assist in lyric writing. Han and Changbin are primarily the lyricists. But, all of the members have gotten involved with both composing and lyric writing at different points. They are immensely talented. The first Stray Kids song I ever heard was actually Maniac. 😊 I would also encourage you to check out their dance practice/ performance videos. They are amazing dancers. Domino, Miroh, Chk Chk Boom, and Jjam are awesome to watch.
Basically a clap back at haters who say that their music is all noise. And they were telling them off saying, if we are noisy, well let me volume up and be the thunderous ones. Hilarious stray kids😂
Metal head as well and just got into Stray Kids... The deep voice that is Felix... My fav😊. You should also check out Chk Chk Boom, Hellevator, Megaverse, Back Door, Case 143, LaLaLa. All so good!! I'm like you I love the transitions in the videos and music!
I'm a 49 year old female I've been a Metalhead all my life and I absolutely love stray kids the first song that I Would Have you listened to is chic chic boom and maniac
Thunderous will always have a very special place in my heart because it was my first skz song (it was in the yt trends when it came out and i watched it and got addicted, been a fan ever since)
love the recognition for Felix's voice, unable to look away from Hyunjin, the talent they all have, the insanity to these videos, and the fact that it feels illegal to watch these because of how cool they are
I am 60 and found BTS about a year ago and was blown away. I decided to start checking out Stray Kids about a month ago and I'm completely blown away! S-Class confounds me with the mixture of the different types of music all blended together. Amazing, talented, great choreo, singing, dancing, video, etc. I'm now a fan. No going back.
Heard God Menu first then Thunderous and then went on a hardcore binge and just listened to a bunch at once. Personal favs are Venom, the above mentioned, and Back Door. Red Lights too!
They also use a lot of real props and live fire in their music videos. In their music video "Circus" one of the fireworks actually accidentally burned one of the members hands but he still finished the video, you can catch glimpses of his hand handages up near the end of the music video
The fact that i slightly threw my phone when he paused before Felix's part in Gods Menu is so funny😂😂😂😂😂it happens all ghe time when people do reactions and i always laugh bc they dont know what is about to happen😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤
My first stray kids song was Maniac. I actually saw it the first time on Tiktok and they were doing a relay dance (the members line up and take turns doing parts of the dance). Then I saw the MV on UA-cam and became OBSESSED with stray kids. I've been listening to them for a few years now
I love watching Straykids reaction videos, they are some of my favorite videos and I love it when language transcends in every aspect. I'm from Chile! I love watching your video. Thank you so much for letting us see your reaction!❤💕❤
Hey! Stay of 2+ years here to add some context. To answer your question, the members are very involved in many aspects of their music. They all contribute to the songwriting and production of their albums, especially their rap and producing unit, 3RACHA (comprised of Bang Chan, HAN, and Changbin). They do most of the songwriting and producing out of all the members. I can't speak on involvement in music video production. The guy with the deep voice is named Felix. He's from Sydney, Australia, and he moved to Korea when he was 17 after being scouted on Facebook. His hair changes a lot - he's had short hair, long hair, and extensions! His freckles are natural. Stays call the classic jaw-dropped reaction to his deep voice the "Felix effect". Fun fact: he knows I exist! My friend and I had a fan interaction with him at their concert. The red haired one in MANIAC is named Hyunjin. He's the main visual of the group and can pull off nearly any hair color and style. He had long silver hair for a while, then cut it again after God's Menu era. He is now a global brand ambassador for Versace and is very good friends with Donatella. Again with long hair! He is also the main dancer, despite having no talent for it. He had to work his ass off to build the skill he has now. About Thunderous, yes, it is magnificent live. I saw them live during their MANIAC tour, and everything was astounding, but Charmer (song from the same album MANIAC is in) was my favorite to see live. I'm hoping to see them again for DominATE! Always happy to see people loving our boys! They truly make my days lighter.
my first skz song was The View and it's still my favorite, but it's joined by a flurry of wonders such as Star Lost, Fam, Back Door, Thunderous, and Maniac.
New to channel! You were in recommendations cos I watch a lot of different reactions, you're really genuine and it's really rare to see a guy liking this music! awesome!
For me, STRAY KIDS are the Kings of this generation of Kpop, you can see how much inspiration they got from the first kings (BIG BANG). I don't like many groups from this generations groups, but immediately fell in love here because its like BIG BANG and BLOCK B had a baby. You can tell how much they looked up to to those groups when watching their videos after watching and listening to BIG BANG & BLOCK B for over a decade 😅 The kinda nuts kpop stans say not to ever compare groups, but I see that as bs when it comes to groups like this. You can literally hear and see the inspiration. They learned from watching their favourite idols who changed the industry, STRAY KIDS even did a tribute to BIG BANG while the group were doing their military service. BIG BANG very literally changed the KPOP industry. STRAY KIDS produce, write, and choreograph their own songs. Without BIG BANG that wouldn't be possible. BIG BANG were the group that gave idols that ability, before that idols had very little control over their music in any way. One that sold it for me was how Han (in the big white hat) raps in Maniac is *very* similar to G-Dragon, as if he grew up rapping along to BIG BANG & GD songs, even his ad-libs on between his verses sound like GD. GD has a VERY unique voice and I listened to this before watching the video, I legit thought they got GD to do a cameo on Maniac. (Side note I am so glad BIG BANG is back and watching all the other idol groups reactions to seeing them suddenly performing at the MAMA awards was priceless. Most of those groups probably never got to see the kings live and you can see their excitement)
I say this as someone who has been into kpop since 2005, Stray Kids are in an entire league of their own. Innovative, experimental and just willing to break the mold.
They all sit and listen to each other's opinions and write down ideas for the songs whilst Bang Chan (Their leader) made the melodies. Im gonna tell a little about the different Stray Kids members Felix is the kitty and the deep voice of the group. He's known for his deep and wonderful voice. He has that "Fairy on the outside, devil on the inside" feeling, bc of his deep and calming voice. Hyunjin is known for his visuals. Hes one of the main dancers (the main dancers are called danceRACHA.) He is an artist and his passion for dancing. (Ran out of time and will finish this tomorrow)
fun fact stray kids produce & write almost all their songs. they're uniquely independent compared to other groups and it allows them versatility in their music!
Also metalhead in my 30s, but a long time KPop fan. SKZ got me back into KPop after a long hiatus from it. They're a breath of fresh air! You kept mentioning how great their video transitions are, and they really are something cool to watch. Early Kpop videos were so icnredibly boring and uninventive- basically all of them being filmed in the same white room. I'm glad we finally have good variety in Kpop visuals now.
I need you to understand that they DID that, like they did everything to put it all together, ofc they have managers and editors and what not but they.. did all of it, the song writing, the producing, the concept, All. Of. It. ❤
Strat Kids are really top notch when It comes to kpop, i would really love to see reactions to their behind the scenes or funny videos, cause they got such strong personalities, and i really love every One of them (Sorry if my english is not on point but i'm italian and i'm drunk on top of It), btw keep the good work up i love your videos❤
S-Class and its music video is crazy, they won awards for it 😊 God's Menu introduced me to Stray Kids, S-Class solidified it for me and all their b-sides had me for the long haul.
Hall of Fame, Side Effects, Venom, Hellevator, Back Door, Megaverse, JJAM, Chk Chk Boom, many more! Also there’s loads of Easter eggs and endings that lead to the next song etc.
Thunderous was a sort of clap-back at haters (symbolized by birds squawking at them in various videos) who were saying they were just a lot of noise, sounded like pots and pans, and wouldn't amount to anything. It's was like, "oh, you want noise? we'll be thunderous!"
I can't exactly pick a favorite because its hard to, but Maniac will always hold a special place in my heart as it was the first song I heard of theirs that brought me into the fandom. (More specifically I saw the relay dance and thought these guys are so funny and this song is dope) Been a little over a year now.
lol…I’ve got all my old friends listening to Stray Kids. We refer to ourselves as the grandparents listening to the kids! He’s feeling the Felix affect!
9:29 thunderous and gods menu were kinda clap backs at haters saying all their music is just noisy and annoying, that was why the album thunderous was names NoEasy with the word noisy highlighted in it
Stray Kids are the BEST rabbit hole to fall into lol 😂 They caught my attention when "God's Menu" came out, it was kind of a huge cultural reset in Kpop it felt like 😅 Then they came back with "Back Door" & I was instantly all in. Every major comeback since then has been A+, somehow topping themselves every time. Though they put out a TON of B-Side videos, the biggest hits worth checking out since then have been: - Thunderous - Maniac - Circus - Case 143 - Venom - Lalala - Megaverse - All In - Chk Chk Boom
This striking guy with red hair is Hyunjin, he's an exceptional dancer and performer! ❤ He can also deliver crazy bars and sing beutifully 🥺 I can tell you right away that even though there are sections for rap, production, vocals and dance, those lines started to blur so long ago, because every one of them writes lyrics and music, can rap, sing and dance❤ I was hardcore trve metalhead for most of my life but these guys brings me so much joy now 😂❤
first ever video i watch of yours, i am a big stray kids fan or stay thats what theyre fandom is called and i just have to say your reactions are the best i have ever seen you really take your time to look at the lyrics wich i love, please do more the songs that got me into stray kids are miroh and easy
THE MEGA STRAY KIDS REACTION IS HERE! 🙌🔥
This was a highly requested video to have some of my most popular SKZ reactions in one video for people to enjoy all at once and for those who may have not seen them before!
Let me know if you'd like to see more videos like this!
Oh I don't mind watching reactions again I've done this many times 😂
I was wondering why these were reposted, awesome that you put them together for others😃👍🏻
I'm so happy you love stray kids and seeing you react to it makes me happy 😊
Hey, just saying it you like Felix’s deep voice then you could listen to Megaverse the start is him rapping in a way.
Stray Kids have totally broken the K-pop mold. I started listening to them a few years ago and love everything they’ve done! What a talented group of young men!
-"What am I supposed to do with myself now?"
- Stays: "Welcome"
SSSSO REAZLZLLLL
🔥🔥
🤪🤪🤪🤣🤣🤣 I’m 50. My daughter converted me. I don’t mind one bit.
Happened to us all lol 1 song to try by second song you are in love !
I'm a metalhead in my 40s and I discovered Stray Kids last year. I am completely addicted to them.
Me too 😂
i came from Tool, Mastodon, the Mars Volta... and now i´m a happy Stay
Same Exactly a year ago for me 🙋♀️
Me too. Longtime Metal Head, Rap and Blues fan. Have been a fan of SKZ for a while now, but am branching out to Ateez too. Never been a fan of Brit Boy Bands - too poptastic. But SKZ are just amazing covering so many genres in their songs and bringing the energy and slick productions. Love their thumping bass and clever lyrics.
I’ve seen SKZ live and they actually bring in so many metal and old school rock samples and transitions and undertones… it’s amazing!! Funny enough, as I was watching, I had a thought that even my metal head friends would love this. And I guess I was right! 😊
They produce all the songs themselves. The members who produce it are Bang Chan, Changbin and Han and they call themselves 3Racha
Bang chan, but otherwise yeah!
@@sjwillson56 Oh hell, i just saw it😱 Thank you
@die_jaronmars4698 someone gave me shit for accidentally typing f3lix instead of felix once... asked what the 3 meant and if it was a slur. No, I just have fat fingers, lol!
@sjwillson56 Some people have nothing better to do than to talk to others stupidly. As if they haven't mistyped before 🤦♀️
The other members also take part in writing songs btw
"This video is gonna make me lose my mind" welcome to the stray kids universe 😂
MegaVerse!! Lol ;)
Stray Kids HOT Megaverse~
meGAVERSEE
MEGAVERSEEEEEEEEE
WELCOME TO THE STRAY KIDS HOT MEGAVERSE
I was smiling so hard during God’s Menu waiting for the Felix deep voice reaction. Gets people every time.
Yes but as soon as his part was going to come on he paused it😫. It annoyed me
@@tonyphantomhive4300 Same
Same
im so happy that he reads the lyrics and not just listens and watches to the videos, cause with the lyrics its even more of an experience!!!
"Dude, just get that voice and inject it into my veins", "His voice, I love it...go back, I want more of him! -- Haha, that's my exact reaction to Felix's Voice, Allonsyyy!
It's the famous Felix Effect :)
The song Thunderous comes from Stray Kid's 'No Easy' album, which is word play on the word noisy. They've gotten hate for making music that is loud like pots and pans, especially in Korea. When SKZ refer to themselves as the famous thunderous ones they are basically saying they are loud and they won't apologize for it. They instead are proud of it. They are also a self-producing group who make 99% of their own music. They are very attentive to the image they create as a group. I'd highly recommend listening to other songs from the 'No Easy' album. Awesome reaction dude!
“I’m a metal head in my 30s” yeah, so was I… until Stray Kids, now I’m mainly just a Stay 😂
I lsten to everything and came across Stray Kids by accident. Now, yeah. I'm a baby Stay and happily so.
I love metal and Stray Kids too ❤
The joke in stayville is that there is so much money in the budget for MVs since JYP saves so much with 3RACHA writing, composing, arranging, and producing themselves.
If you are a metal head, you’ll love Stray Kids! Totally recommend Hellavator, LaLaLaLa, Megaverse, Venom, JJAM, Side Effects, and Freeze. Thanks for your reaction & looking forward to more ❤
Metal is probably closer to Night, Come Play, Battle Grounds or Lalalala (Rock ver.), etc. 🥰
the "I could listen to him all day" referring to felix, and the "He's just visually striking, you just wanna look at him" referring to hyunjin was so real
They write and produce ALL of their own music.
except heyday which they had someone else produce
I am 67 and discovered stray kids a couple of months ago. I am completely addicted. They are so accomplished. The music, the dancing, the lyrics are fantastic. I could go on.....😂.
8:18 I don’t know how to explain but for me, SKZ is uniquely good at “flexing” in a way that *brings you along with them.* The actual vibe is less that they’re better than anyone else or something (why compete when you’re doing your own thing anyway?) and more just being the most awesome version of yourself possible, haha.
You expressed it so well🥹🎯
@@ugoclaire1198 Like, they’re not flexing at me, they’re flexing *us* at the rest of the world, haha ❤️
Nailed it!
And that’s why we love them!
8:04 “the back door lighting up too” made me laugh bc I love back door!
As a Felix admirer, you should DEFINITELY listen to "Deep end" by him. It's his solo song and lemme tell you, his range is INCREDIBLE.
The Felix Effect is real and hits so hard !
Def should listen to some compilations of Felix's vocal range...
My first song was Maniac by them and I’ve been hooked ever since ❤ I would definitely recommend listening to Venom 👌🏻
@@tawneerei oooh strong seconding Venom for sure
I'm a Metal/Rock fan as well (in my mid fifties), and came across Stray kids about a month ago. Was watching a recording of their Melbourne concert last night and wishing i was there. They dont fit the typical Boy band genre - thankfully, as ive never liked a single boy band before! I would happily go to one of Stray kids concerts.
True about Hyunjin being visually striking. He is just so handsome. Stray Kids make amazing music
I discovered Stray Kids about a year ago and they are still over half of what I listen to. The thing that impressed me the most is the fact that they write their own music and lyrics! They are so talented!! And they’re sweet and supportive of each other, humble /appreciative toward their fans and so funny! They make me smile every day.
Yessir you understand the SKZ assignment....n I can't choose a fav they have 200 songs, all of them BANGERS
They have more than 300 songs, i love all of them tbh
Welcome to the rabbithole of Straykids 😂 you’re a Stay now ❤ and no matter how old you are, i’m 48 and became a Stay because of my daughter of 13 😂
SAME!!!!
I’m 55 and became one months ago from the algorithms…THANK YOU UNIVERSE! lol, it’s so refreshing to see and experience this band, their music, their personalities and videos! I’ve watched their vlogs and they are wholesome and genuine…which feels so rare now adays! 💥❤️🔥
As a teenager I love New Kids on the Block I am about to be 50 years old in January I found stray kids like a month and a half ago and I've been utterly addicted I feel like a teenager again Felix is my absolute favorite
@@dawnyofthelightyes i have the same! I was also a nkotb fan as a teenager and now i also feel like a teenager again 😂
Bro fell in love with Felix and thought we wouldn't notice
Welcome Baby Stay
Backdoor was my very first SKZ song I had ever heard and I fell in love with them after that song 🥰😍🤩❤❤🔥
This is funny seeing your introduction to them after seeing part of your journey after this already!
@Allonsyyyy The reason the Back Door sign lit up is they have a Song called "Back Door" Which is a continuation of "God's Menu". Also Chan Changbin and Han produce all of the music. They sometimes have help from others but all the songs usually have 3racha. That''s what they call themselves as the producers.
"Go back to that last guy I want more of him" that my friend is called the Felix effect 😂
Welcome to the Stay fandom!! We love our boys!
Yes we do!! ;)
Welcome to the rabbit hole! Stray Kids are very prolific, experimental, and give tons of variety in the types of music they make.
They write and produce something like 98% of their music. Their producing team is called 3racha, and it is three members from the group.

The first Stray Kids song I ever heard was actually Maniac. 😊 I would also encourage you to check out their dance practice/ performance videos. They are amazing dancers. Domino, Miroh, Chk Chk Boom, and Jjam are awesome to watch.
As a fellow Metalhead, my absolute fave genre would be Alternative/ Nu Metal.
Which is why I reallyyyyy like Stray Kids' music!
Basically a clap back at haters who say that their music is all noise. And they were telling them off saying, if we are noisy, well let me volume up and be the thunderous ones. Hilarious stray kids😂
Stray Kids everywhere all around the world , you make Stray Kids STAY
Metal head as well and just got into Stray Kids... The deep voice that is Felix... My fav😊. You should also check out Chk Chk Boom, Hellevator, Megaverse, Back Door, Case 143, LaLaLa. All so good!! I'm like you I love the transitions in the videos and music!
It's cool to have all the vids in one place and in order! Thanks for the megamix!
I'm a 49 year old female I've been a Metalhead all my life and I absolutely love stray kids the first song that I Would Have you listened to is chic chic boom and maniac
Thunderous will always have a very special place in my heart because it was my first skz song (it was in the yt trends when it came out and i watched it and got addicted, been a fan ever since)
LISTEN YOU HAVE TO WATCH CASE 143, so many transitions and vocals, deep voice also😫
If you are a metal head, you will enjoy Hall of Fame, Battleground and the Rock version of Lalalala. Enjoy 😊
Im thinking he might like Night too …
love the recognition for Felix's voice, unable to look away from Hyunjin, the talent they all have, the insanity to these videos, and the fact that it feels illegal to watch these because of how cool they are
I love your analysis !!!! Love how you actually paid attention to the lyrics, concepts, everything !! This was great
I am 60 and found BTS about a year ago and was blown away. I decided to start checking out Stray Kids about a month ago and I'm completely blown away! S-Class confounds me with the mixture of the different types of music all blended together. Amazing, talented, great choreo, singing, dancing, video, etc. I'm now a fan. No going back.
I first heard/saw Maniac and I was hooked for life. 🥰 #proudstay
I'm dirty refers to being pissed off or angry, an Australian slang commonly used.
Thanks for clarifying. I always wanted to know what that means regarding the song for months now.
Heard God Menu first then Thunderous and then went on a hardcore binge and just listened to a bunch at once.
Personal favs are Venom, the above mentioned, and Back Door. Red Lights too!
2 of the members of stray kids have 100+ writing credits a piece. They're incredible.
They also use a lot of real props and live fire in their music videos. In their music video "Circus" one of the fireworks actually accidentally burned one of the members hands but he still finished the video, you can catch glimpses of his hand handages up near the end of the music video
The fact that i slightly threw my phone when he paused before Felix's part in Gods Menu is so funny😂😂😂😂😂it happens all ghe time when people do reactions and i always laugh bc they dont know what is about to happen😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤
The back door that pops up in the end of Gods Menu leads into their song Back Door as well btw.
I love that this makes me feel like I’m listening to them for the first time and like that mind blowing feeling delving into the skzverse!!
Absolutely enjoyed your commentary!
God's menu was my first song of theirs that I listened to and I've been hooked every since
Speaking of the transitions being smooth I feel like Stray Kids MV's are notoriois for having epic transitions.
My first stray kids song was Maniac. I actually saw it the first time on Tiktok and they were doing a relay dance (the members line up and take turns doing parts of the dance). Then I saw the MV on UA-cam and became OBSESSED with stray kids. I've been listening to them for a few years now
STRAY KIDS EVERYWHERE ALL AROUND THE WORLD!!! ❤❤❤❤
Stray Kids does all their own writing and producing, there are plenty of videos of them in the studio working on songs, very fun to watch.
The metalhead to listening to stray kids and becoming a stay pipeline is very real. Me too, mate lmao.
Felix was 19 in gods menu 😊
I love watching Straykids reaction videos, they are some of my favorite videos and I love it when language transcends in every aspect.
I'm from Chile! I love watching your video. Thank you so much for letting us see your reaction!❤💕❤
Hey! Stay of 2+ years here to add some context.
To answer your question, the members are very involved in many aspects of their music. They all contribute to the songwriting and production of their albums, especially their rap and producing unit, 3RACHA (comprised of Bang Chan, HAN, and Changbin). They do most of the songwriting and producing out of all the members. I can't speak on involvement in music video production.
The guy with the deep voice is named Felix. He's from Sydney, Australia, and he moved to Korea when he was 17 after being scouted on Facebook. His hair changes a lot - he's had short hair, long hair, and extensions! His freckles are natural. Stays call the classic jaw-dropped reaction to his deep voice the "Felix effect". Fun fact: he knows I exist! My friend and I had a fan interaction with him at their concert.
The red haired one in MANIAC is named Hyunjin. He's the main visual of the group and can pull off nearly any hair color and style. He had long silver hair for a while, then cut it again after God's Menu era. He is now a global brand ambassador for Versace and is very good friends with Donatella. Again with long hair! He is also the main dancer, despite having no talent for it. He had to work his ass off to build the skill he has now.
About Thunderous, yes, it is magnificent live. I saw them live during their MANIAC tour, and everything was astounding, but Charmer (song from the same album MANIAC is in) was my favorite to see live. I'm hoping to see them again for DominATE!
Always happy to see people loving our boys! They truly make my days lighter.
The metalhead to Stray Kids pipeline is SO REAL! - Love, a 2 year STAY!!
my first skz song was The View and it's still my favorite, but it's joined by a flurry of wonders such as Star Lost, Fam, Back Door, Thunderous, and Maniac.
So glad we can join you on this ride, dude.
Stray kids are unbelievable talented in every aspect all their songs and MV are mind blowing
New to channel! You were in recommendations cos I watch a lot of different reactions, you're really genuine and it's really rare to see a guy liking this music! awesome!
First stray kids song I heard was Red Lights. What a way to start.🤣
They got me with Maniac...my favorite now is chk chk boom... I'm obsessed.
Stray kids are themselves and encourage individuality, they are there for the cast outs ❤
For me, STRAY KIDS are the Kings of this generation of Kpop, you can see how much inspiration they got from the first kings (BIG BANG). I don't like many groups from this generations groups, but immediately fell in love here because its like BIG BANG and BLOCK B had a baby.

One that sold it for me was how Han (in the big white hat) raps in Maniac is *very* similar to G-Dragon, as if he grew up rapping along to BIG BANG & GD songs, even his ad-libs on between his verses sound like GD. GD has a VERY unique voice and I listened to this before watching the video, I legit thought they got GD to do a cameo on Maniac.
(Side note I am so glad BIG BANG is back and watching all the other idol groups reactions to seeing them suddenly performing at the MAMA awards was priceless. Most of those groups probably never got to see the kings live and you can see their excitement)
I say this as someone who has been into kpop since 2005, Stray Kids are in an entire league of their own. Innovative, experimental and just willing to break the mold.
They all sit and listen to each other's opinions and write down ideas for the songs whilst Bang Chan (Their leader) made the melodies.
Im gonna tell a little about the different Stray Kids members
Felix is the kitty and the deep voice of the group. He's known for his deep and wonderful voice. He has that "Fairy on the outside, devil on the inside" feeling, bc of his deep and calming voice.
Hyunjin is known for his visuals. Hes one of the main dancers (the main dancers are called danceRACHA.) He is an artist and his passion for dancing.
(Ran out of time and will finish this tomorrow)
Really appreciate how you break down the lyrics and understand the meanings! Hope you react to their new album!
Circus is one of my all time favorite videos and songs by them❤❤
fun fact stray kids produce & write almost all their songs. they're uniquely independent compared to other groups and it allows them versatility in their music!
Gods menu was my first and I was instantly hooked. I’m a Stay through and through!❤
Also metalhead in my 30s, but a long time KPop fan. SKZ got me back into KPop after a long hiatus from it. They're a breath of fresh air! You kept mentioning how great their video transitions are, and they really are something cool to watch. Early Kpop videos were so icnredibly boring and uninventive- basically all of them being filmed in the same white room. I'm glad we finally have good variety in Kpop visuals now.
I enjoyed your musical joy in discovering our Stray Kids.....
The best thing is they write and produce ALL of their own music.
I need you to understand that they DID that, like they did everything to put it all together, ofc they have managers and editors and what not but they.. did all of it, the song writing, the producing, the concept, All. Of. It. ❤
The album noi(ea)sy is completely insane and after that I absolutely don't know because I LOVE every single song !
the gods menu ending was a hint to their next song named back door. you should definitely listen to it!
Strat Kids are really top notch when It comes to kpop, i would really love to see reactions to their behind the scenes or funny videos, cause they got such strong personalities, and i really love every One of them (Sorry if my english is not on point but i'm italian and i'm drunk on top of It), btw keep the good work up i love your videos❤
35 year old metal head here… Found Stray Kids last year… Been a fan since! 😂🤘🏻
I FOR SURE RECCOMEND THESE 3 cus they my fav songs: Come play , Side effects and Circus please react to them they are so frickin good
S-Class and its music video is crazy, they won awards for it 😊
God's Menu introduced me to Stray Kids, S-Class solidified it for me and all their b-sides had me for the long haul.
Hall of Fame, Side Effects,
Venom, Hellevator, Back Door, Megaverse, JJAM, Chk Chk Boom, many more!
Also there’s loads of Easter eggs and endings that lead to the next song etc.
Ahha, it's so funny seeing someone experiencing stray kids for the first time. They are amazing, really.
Thunderous was a sort of clap-back at haters (symbolized by birds squawking at them in various videos) who were saying they were just a lot of noise, sounded like pots and pans, and wouldn't amount to anything. It's was like, "oh, you want noise? we'll be thunderous!"
LISTEN TO:
Domino
Case 143
Megaverse
lalalala
Easy
And watch their kingdom performances!
They are ❤
I recommend checking out Chronosaurus, Miroh and Hellevator from their early work. You will want to check out the rest on your own after that.
I can't exactly pick a favorite because its hard to, but Maniac will always hold a special place in my heart as it was the first song I heard of theirs that brought me into the fandom. (More specifically I saw the relay dance and thought these guys are so funny and this song is dope) Been a little over a year now.
lol…I’ve got all my old friends listening to Stray Kids. We refer to ourselves as the grandparents listening to the kids! He’s feeling the Felix affect!
btw they right and produce all of their own music (mainly ban chan and a few others)
9:29 thunderous and gods menu were kinda clap backs at haters saying all their music is just noisy and annoying, that was why the album thunderous was names NoEasy with the word noisy highlighted in it
Stray Kids are the BEST rabbit hole to fall into lol 😂 They caught my attention when "God's Menu" came out, it was kind of a huge cultural reset in Kpop it felt like 😅 Then they came back with "Back Door" & I was instantly all in. Every major comeback since then has been A+, somehow topping themselves every time. Though they put out a TON of B-Side videos, the biggest hits worth checking out since then have been:
- Thunderous
- Maniac
- Circus
- Case 143
- Venom
- Lalala
- Megaverse
- All In
- Chk Chk Boom
This striking guy with red hair is Hyunjin, he's an exceptional dancer and performer! ❤ He can also deliver crazy bars and sing beutifully 🥺 I can tell you right away that even though there are sections for rap, production, vocals and dance, those lines started to blur so long ago, because every one of them writes lyrics and music, can rap, sing and dance❤ I was hardcore trve metalhead for most of my life but these guys brings me so much joy now 😂❤
Wait till you know them by name and their personalities. You can't help but fall in love with them.
first ever video i watch of yours, i am a big stray kids fan or stay thats what theyre fandom is called and i just have to say your reactions are the best i have ever seen you really take your time to look at the lyrics wich i love, please do more the songs that got me into stray kids are miroh and easy
