Guys I realize now that this isnt the MV! But enjoy the reaction! Theres no going back. I dont fake reactions. Doing it again would break the emersion of the “first time reaction” EDIT: After so many requests.. I WILL be watching the MV for this song and I will share my reaction with you all!❤
The point here is ... the amount of production effort put into "simple" performance videos like this one is such that they would easily pass as full MVs in today's western world of music. When you follow the K-Pop (and adjacent ... I'm even not sure if you can count Stray Kids as K-Pop) path, you will get to see MVs that will make you lose your mind.
Their music videos are art-pieces in themselves. I would love to see you go through the song once more in a video to include the MV ... So like now: once for the dance and feel of the song, then once with lyrics, and then also once to watch the MV. Not necessarily in that order 😊 There are so many layers that it's impossible to catch it all by just watching once! I really liked that you took the time to watch more than once. 😊❤ But believe me: their MVs are WELL worth watching!! 😊 One small note for your editing: when you watch it with subtitles, is it possible for you to move the screen of you a bit up, so we can read the subtitles along with you? (Half of them where hidden this time). I know the song well, but not by heart yet 😉 and it's easier to react together with you, if we can see the same thing ❤🎉 Great reaction. Will sub and keep a lookout for more Stray Kids reactions! 😊😊😊
I think you were misled. They are most definitely known for their dancing, lol. Every facet of their performances is on point. They all sing. They all rap. They're all visuals, and they're all excellent dancers. It's a group of all-rounders IMO. And they write their music and produce it too (sometimes collaborating with producers).
10:04 "why couldnt i have found these guys like 4 years ago or something." lol,Literally me when i found them, like why or how did i now know skz existed sooner
KPop is huge in Latin America and Stray Kids label, JYP, is opening a new division there. A lot of the KPop industry has been dabbling in Latin Music. Two members grew up in Australia so English is their first language. What you may be noticing is the sentence structure is different and their idioms are different than in the US. Korean culture loves wordplay like puns, etc.
Whoever told you they aren't known for dancing lied to you😂 I love their dance, rap, vocals, visuals...all the things😊 If you like dance you'll enjoy their dance practices. I suggest reacting to their m/v then watch the dance practices for those songs. My favorite dance is EASY, THUNDEROUS, DOMINO(no m/v for that), FREEZE, HALL OF FAME(live performance), MEGAVERSE. You should check out The 39th Golden disc awards. They perform MEGAVERSE, SCLASS, and HALL OF FAME. It's an amazing performance! 😊
Yes! Exactly. Would really love to see mv and dance practice or live performance or some sort of combo in each reaction if you like to see dancing. The choreos are not always featured fully in their mvs as those are generally more for storytelling.
Ty so much for reacting to this song!!! Not complaining AT ALL because I love to watch this choreo, but this isn't the official mv, it's a performance video. I really hope you watch the official one, too, even if it's only on your own time bc it's EPIC. There aren't any Spanish speakers in SKZ, but they do love to experiment and try many different sounds/genres. They also have a huge Latin/South American fan base, so I wouldn't be surprised at all to see more Spanish included in the future (they love connecting to us STAY/fans). Two of them are native English speakers, though, the Aussie line: Bang Chan (the leader and the one who's "monotone talk/rapping" you liked) and Felix (our deep-voiced phenom). I think that's why they are so able to effortlessly and naturally blend Korean and English lyrics. How many singers are there? 8. 8 singers, 8 rappers, 8 dancers😂. You mentioned being surprised to hear rap over pop😂😂😂😂😂. SKZ have two of the best rappers in the industry...now I'm dying to see your reaction to megaverse😂❤. Tyty again for giving SKZ your time and attention ❤.
LOL.. I was just coming back to say this after I checked out his God's Menu reaction. I guess no one there mentioned with that there are several types of MVs, official title track ones and special performance MVs [usually focus on the choreo/stage camera work] and also actual dance practices. I am not sure why someone would tell you that they are not as focus on dance.. their literally have some of the best and hardest choreo in K-pop.. If you love dance.. you will enjoy them. 🖖🏽 And you going to love 3Racha [three-racha - like the hot sauce]. 🖖🏽
That's not true. Have you never watched anything where they talk about the music? Any of the reactions from Koreans? When they talk about a "classic" or "expected" K-pop sound, it means K-pop has its own sound. Also, SKZ broke all the rules and created their own genre, you can't break rules if there aren't any.
If you are a rap fan, you will love Stray Kids. They have fabulous rappers and make their own stuff. Most songs include rap but there is more heavy rap stuff in their b sides. Try unit song Muddy Water. 3racha (Bang Chan, Changbin and Han), the production unit was also a predebut rap unit who posted their stuff to sound cloud. Try 3racha (the self titled song) and HeyDay. They also do solos like I Got It (by Han) and Cypher (Changbin).
Felix (the one with the deep voice) seriously reminds me if Cloud and Sepiroth had a love child (from final fantasy vii video game) 🩶🔥 I totally agree with you, I wish I found them earlier as I have only been a Stay (fandom name) for a few months but man I’m so glad I found them!! Lalalala, S-Class, and Mountains I would recommend next. Their songs are so fun and most of them are very motivating and about being true to yourself or just being yourself. Love them so much!!
Addicting. Yes! I experience this with MANY of their songs, but this one is very repeat friendly. I've played it on continual loop for HOURS without getting tired of it. You like this performance video? Check out the MV! (and the dance practice --- that goes for everything! their dance practices are so good to appreciate choreo. My personal favorites are Double Knot and Easy, and newer stuff like S-Class, Megaverse, and Lalalala are excellent, also. I haven't spent much time with the dance practices to these newest songs yet but I have no doubt they are awesome)
Yep, definitely a reggaeton base on the music, hence the spanish vocabulary fitting so well! No spanish heritage on anyone in the group... S. Korean and Australian nationals. How many singers? They can ALL sing, the predominantly vocal line includes Seungmin, I.N, Bang Chan, and Lee Know. But it is literally no joke when folks comment the "8 rappers, 8 singers, 8 dancers, etc....
So fun to watch a new STAY in the making. Looking forward to watching you journey. Based on your reactions I'd suggest Thunderous, Easy, Topline and the Sound as your next reactions. You might also enjoy Changbin's rap feature in Milli and F.Hero's (Thai rappers) MV Mirror, Mirror.
I really love ur reactions to the guys. Feels like discovering them all over again. I find that people discover them when they need to. I know so many who have been changed by Stray Kids. For me I came to them when I was in the darkest place in my life and they helped me through it. Welcome to Stayville!!! These guys don't miss. Highly recommend checking out God's Menu, Thunderous, Venom, LALALALA, TOPLINE, Item, S-Class, Easy, Domino dance practice video and check out their performance videos, they are made for live performances
The deep voiced person you like a lot is Felix, also my fav, along with Han, one of the fast rappers. All 8 can sing, rap and dance! I like your format of just watching first for the music and visuals then a second time for the lyrics and details. I'm a long-time stay and was lucky enough to go to their concert last year. They work so hard to write, produce and just about everything! I love them so much. I can only recommend checking out Monsta X, my only other top fav K-pop group. Oh, a Korean band called The Rose is dam good too!! (No dancing cuz they are playing their own instruments!)
I have a playlist of just their Dance practices & Relay Dances. Also, for more Rap- I recommend Topline, Venom, Easy, Freeze and many more. Stray Kids’ rapline is top tier. SKZ have always had the hiphop swagger and their sound is different because they self-produce: beats, lyrics, composition.
Loved your excitement discovering this song and Stray Kids! I totally relate. As others have already pointed out all eight members sing, rap, dance, write, produce. Yes, this song definitely has a Latin vibe to it, down to including some Spanish words and Changbin rolling his rs. Bang Chan, the leader, and Felix, the baritone you liked, are both Australian Korean so English is their first language. They intersperse English frequently and have some songs that are fully English. They also have Japanese songs. Even a bit of French in one song. Stray Kids discography is very diverse and there is something for everyone but their title tracks tend to be very hype. Some of their title tracks would be God’s Menu, Thunderous, Maniac and La La La La. They have songs that are more rap focused like Topline and Superbowl and the rap line subgroup of Changbin, Hyunjin, Han and Felix has a song Muddy Water. They have songs that are more vocal centric like Cover Me and Leave and the vocal line of Bang Chan, Lee Know, Seungmin and IN has a song Waiting for Us. They have OSTs including Top and Slump and most recently Slash which is in the Deadpool Wolverine movie. They are fantastic live and as you’ve noticed already amazing dancers. They just headlined Lolla in Chicago as well as IDays and BST Hyde Park so you can get an idea of their festival vibes and their award show performances are legendary. They performed at and took home the trophy at the VMAs last year. There are also dance practice videos and one take videos where you can get a true representation of their live vocals. Members also have solo and subgroup songs. Felix has a song called Deep End that really showcases his beautiful tone and range.
“i’m getting a rap vibe from this guy” about changbin. 😎 yeah, he can sing, but he is A RAPPER. absolutely considered one of the best in k-pop and in korea, and makes lists for worldwide as well. the more you listen to them the more you’ll freak out over changbin and han when they rap.
Something that STAYs really love about Stray Kids is that you can always enjoy the music being sure that it has meaningful lyrics that will bring you confidence, joy, tears, comfort, pride, etc. Because they write their own lyrics, I think they're pretty much always good, and for sure always clever and well thought (full of rhymes, word plays with both korean and english, sometimes other languages, full of images, and more).
I love that the first 3 you mentioned (Besides Felix's deep voice ) are 3Racha, saying they fit so well with the music... Well, they wrote and produced it, SO YES!!! Love it! Also, the captions for them are probably one of the more accurate ones you'll get on UA-cam, we've got 2 Australians in this group (They won't allow the lyrics of their own song to be misleading)! xD * I saw people already told you that they are most definitely known for their incredible dancing. * About the amount of singers appers\dancers in the group, well...they can all actually sing, rap, and dance. They are insane for that. They do have units though, 3Racha, Dance Racha, and Vocal Racha. * You should watch the official MV for this, it's insane! * ALSO! We love that people care for their lyrics. It's meaningful for us because they are self produced, everything is created by them so it's important to us, the fans, that reactors actually care for the lyrics. Thank you!
Saurrr just to clarify!!! Idk who in the world said they are more known for being lyricist but they are VERY well known for all parts, i will agree though that the "more known for being lyricists" part will fall more on 3RACHA'S part (btw you should look into their Discography!!) but even still 3RACHA are known for being IMMACULATE dancers/singers/ vocalist/visuals/literally ALL-ROUNDERS, ect.!! And STAY can agree! 🩵 (No hate to who ever said this just wanted to clarify! 😁)
@@greenboucher6372 I dont think i ever said they werent good dancers! I said that I was told to listen to their lyrics instead of watching their dancing
@@HawaiianMusicReactsOMG I didnt say u said it hahaha And I was Just kidding thats why I laughed 🫣and I know what they meant as its hard to focus on all at once especially if you look at their m/‘s
Also They have 3 sub units but they can all rap sing and dance 3Racha is their main rappers and producing unit, Bang Chan (Leader and Korean Australian), Changbin and Han DanceRacha is main dancers, Lee Know, Hyunjin and Felix (Deep Voice and Korean Australian) VocalRacha is the lead vocalists Seungmin and I.N
4:31 Thats Bang Chan, the creator of Stray Kids, leader, main producer, lyricist. Skz has no weak points or members. They are a complete package. Bang Chan picked the right ppl for his group. Skz dance practices are always a must
Changbin, one of best rappers in industry, giving rap vibes? No way :D it was funny, thank you for great reactions, we love to watch someone fall as hard as we did :)
Stray kids is actually all Korean and Bang Chan(the leader) and Felix the guy you liked is both from Australia but Bang Chan moved to Australia at a very young age ❤ hope you can learn and get to know them better they are very talented (and VERY funny😂)❤❤
The one in the jacket wilth white and brown/orange is Lee Know he was about to become choreographer before training to be Kpop idol. They all can sing,dance and rap but are also kind of split on units. 3racha are Bang Chan [speaking part] Changbin [the one that made you mention spanish] and Han [white beanie] they are rap line also producers lyricists and composers for the most of the songs [Bang chan chose themembers for Skz himself and they are self produced both are rare things in kpop] Danceracha are Deep voice Felix, guy with the scarf thingy on the head Hyunjin and as I mentioned Lee Know,Vocal Racha Seugmin - t shirt black and white short hair and I.n [jeaongin is his actual name] orange/blond hair,black tank top. You will notice a lot play with words and their sound/meaning in korean and English,often these things are idea of Changbin because he likes stuff like that
As you can see from the fact that there are performance videos, SKZ are all about the performance. The lyrics are incredible, and meaningful, and have a message, but the performance is how they present the song to us. Its supposed to have a Latin feel, some of the members got into latin music and they decided it would be a fun genre to play with.
Stray Kids (as well as other kpop groups) like to explore different genres and cultures, so this time, they wanted to incorporate Spanish lyrics and Latin elements inn the music ^^
Looking forward for more straykids reactions! Some of their songs have dance practices or live performances as well, some reactors like to listen to the mv, then the dance practice, or a lyric video, then the music video etc, so they can more easily see different aspects
MY RECCOMMENDATION FOR THEIR DISCOGRAPHY (U WONT REGRET)🩷 - top tier instrumental: miroh, venom, slash (deadpool ost), item - chefs kiss song: hall of fame, back door, social path - crazy rap: heyday by 3racha, 3racha by 3racha - slower songs (u will be gagged by their vocals): COVER ME, secret secret, leave
I enjoyed the way you structured this - listening and watching the choreo and THEN reading the lyrics! Glad you enjoyed this one and can't wait to see your MV reaction!!!
I really love watching you genuinely appreciate them and want to learn more. You pausing and going back to talk about what you like about them is actually really nice. It makes me feel like I’m watching them as a new fan
Welcome to Stray Kids (SKZ). The members are 6 Koreans and 2 Australians. 8 multi talented young men, 23 - 27 years old. The group is self produced. All members can sing, rap and dance. All members write lyrics and compose music. I highly recommend to react to a SKZ guide from 2023 or 2024. It should be a long one, to do SKZ justice. The long ones are worth watching and very informative. Please consider to react to the MV of Chk chk boom. It's fantastic. Recommendations for MVs: Venom, Freeze, Mountains, Stray Kids, Top Line, Get lit, Maniac, S- class, Easy Live performances: SKZ MAMA2022 Venom and Maniac SKZ MAMA 2023 SKZ London Hyde park (July 2024) SKZ Chicago Lollapalooza (August 2024) I hope, you will enjoy, since you praised them so much. Stay with us STAYS and react to SKZ. Thanks very much indeed. Greetings from Germany 🌸
Just a quick correction, just for info...both Bang Chan and Felix are of Korean background; but only Felix was born in Australia, BC, aka Christopher, was born in Korea and his family soon moved to Australia, where he mostly grew up, hence both having that lovely Sydney speak. So, g-day, mate, have a noice one. Hope I didn't add too much confusion to the discussion.
Stray kids are known for their heavy sound music or noise music but they do have balldes as well there are 2main rappers han and changbin and other members rap too as you can see and 2 main vocalists but all of them sing as well and 3 main dancers but everyone can dance as well they produce 99% of their music bangchan is the main producer!!! And actually this song is a bit toned down for them they put a little bit of mainstream music into their signature stray kids music thats why!!
He is my favorite too hecis Felixxx the man with deep voice and aggressive dance 😭😭😭 he is the best and also my other bias chan is the one you loved and mentioned 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kpop isn't a genre. Skz raps, sings, and dances, and puts out pop, rock, punk, whatever they write. One thing they never do is BUY their songs. Kpop as an industry should try to stay away from that. You want your artists to be able to write, compose, and produce. I know how you feel--I felt the same way when i found them.
To help you learn what the members look like (I'm specifically listing times they are in the CENTER of the screen): 3Racha (Stray Kids' writing and production unit): @2:56 - Bang Chan - leader of Stray Kids, leader of 3Racha, main songwriter, main producer, composer, arranger, vocalist, dancer, rapper on some songs @1:55 - Changbin - main songwriter, main producer, composer, main rapper, vocalist, dancer @1:44 - Han - main songwriter, main producer, composer, main rapper, vocalist, dancer ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The other members: @3:56 - Lee Know (jacket with orange sleeves) - main dancer, choreographer for some songs, vocalist, songwriter, rapper on some songs @3:46 - Hyunjin - main dancer, main rapper, songwriter, producer, vocalist (also an artist & some of his paintings have been used as art for their songs) @1:39 - Felix (long silver hair) - main dancer, main rapper, songwriter, large vocal range when singing - bass, baritone and high falsetto @2:52 - Seungmin - main vocalist, songwriter, dancer, rapper on some songs @2:45 - I.N - main vocalist, songwriter, dancer, rapper on some songs
4:23 That's my lovely leader Bangchan, he is originally from Australia and he is the one collecting the groups member And he is also the one producing each one of their song with his unit 3racha that includes the rappers Han Nd Changbin
Also the one rapping which you mentioned first, the purple hair, is changbin known as one of the best rappers world wide!!! For real, he said in the making of video, he held back very much of his power for this song. But check outcsongs like doodle, jjam, miroh(!!!!!) and get flashed, like i did. You will love the song 3racha and "i got it" where HAN raps will blow your mind. And do not forget: HeY Day!!!!!! The 3racha anthem!!
Stray Kids is a group that has no positions, the leader of the group (Bangchan, he also created the group and handpicked the members) said that there is no need to define positions since they are all good in any role, there are 8 rappers, 8 incredible vocalists and 8 dancers, if you delve deeper into Stray Kids' entire discography you will be able to observe the variety of talents, there are also live performances where the "vocalists" rap and the "rappers" sing, the 8 members do not they stay stuck in one thing, so don't think "hm this one is a rapper" or "this one is vocal" because all 8 are lol
Please check out the actual M/V even if you don’t post it. Please react to Stay Kids - Mixtape:OH on The First Take. It will show you their live vocals and a different side to them
I was about to suggest that! since their MVs have so much going on is hard to focus on both that and the lyrics so you can just watch the mv first and the focus on the lyrics :) Plus you need to watch the official MV of this song!!
If youre a rap fan you should defo check out 3 racha (the song) and hey day, its one the rap unit song but still shows them off amazingly. Plus changbins mirror ft
I’ve left a few notes in the pinned comment, but here are some of my favourites (in no particular order) to add to your list 😊 Easy Double Knot (incl dance practice. They also have eng vers) Miroh Levanter (also has eng vers.) Venom The Sound Circus Maniac Thunderous Cheese Side Effects Mirror Grrr Hall of fame (live) Scars (first take and dance performance) Domino (dance practice, no mv, only unveil/teaser)
The word 'Kpop' is really misleading. In kpop there’s groups like Stray kids that do mostly rap songs, and then there’s bands like Xdinary Heroes that’s full on a rock band that sings in Korean and English, another example is a group like Twice that makes more like a pop vibe. My point is that K-pop is ruined by the stereotypes that non kpop fans have of it. Btw the guy with the deep voice that you liked is Felix! He’s from Australia 💗
You should check out Ateez if you also want really good dancing! They aren't as rap based but they have some of the best vocalists in K-Pop (with some really decent rappers). Here r some personal recommendations if you do ever want to react to them at some point 1. Work, most recent comeback (also similarly has a spanish influence, Ateez tends to have a lot of spanish influence) 2. Thanxx 3. Guerrilla (Rock/Metal influenced) 4. Matz (if you really want to see more rap, but it is a subunit with only two of the members) 5. Crazy Form 6. Deja Vu 7. Fireworks I'm the one 8. Hala Hala (If you wanna check out some pretty impressive dancing) 9. The Leaders (This is a b-side without a video, so you'd probably watch a lyric video instead) 10. Halazia This is a long list so of course you don't have to check ALL of these out, just some recommendations if you do want to delve deeper into K-Pop and other groups.
Um .. this isn't the mv. Stray Kids aren't known as dancers?! Excuse me, have you met Hyunjin, Lee Know, and Felix? Three of the best dancers in KPop?! Whoever pranked you is hilarious! Please check out the real mv. Then Thunderous. Then Korean version of Fam. "You nice, keep going."
Whoever told you they are not big in dancing LIED to you man ❤ None of them is Spanish and they can incorporate Spanish influences all they want, permission from a spaniard 😊
Thank you for reacting. But fr, Duuude!! Who said, skz is more known for their lyrics than their dancing??? Are you kidding me? They have an immense status for being in the upper top ten for their ridiculous good choreography , their their ability to synchronize and to showcase multiple different styles. Watch domino practice video or....any of their practise videos. And if you want to go deep down the rabbit hole, watch out for the kingdom episodes like gods dude du or wolfgang. And for their vocal abilities search I'll be your man. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Guys I realize now that this isnt the MV! But enjoy the reaction! Theres no going back. I dont fake reactions. Doing it again would break the emersion of the “first time reaction”
EDIT: After so many requests.. I WILL be watching the MV for this song and I will share my reaction with you all!❤
Yeah. But this gives you a chance to just enjoy the craziness of the video....Or you can watch it on your own time.
@@GolyenHighway I’m gonna watch it on my own time or maybe do a bonus section to the next reaction video
@@HawaiianMusicReacts You will enjoy it. It's a blast

"They have no business being this good." Well that's Stray Kids perfectly summarized 😂
I think you were misled. They are most definitely known for their dancing, lol. Every facet of their performances is on point. They all sing. They all rap. They're all visuals, and they're all excellent dancers. It's a group of all-rounders IMO. And they write their music and produce it too (sometimes collaborating with producers).
Yeah ive gotten this comment a lot. I was definitely misled
10:04 "why couldnt i have found these guys like 4 years ago or something." lol,Literally me when i found them, like why or how did i now know skz existed sooner
I'd 100% say still watch the M/V. It's so good.
I’m going to!❤️
You're definitely going to love it. Stray Kids M/V always go all out. Their budget must be insane 😂
KPop is huge in Latin America and Stray Kids label, JYP, is opening a new division there. A lot of the KPop industry has been dabbling in Latin Music.
Two members grew up in Australia so English is their first language. What you may be noticing is the sentence structure is different and their idioms are different than in the US. Korean culture loves wordplay like puns, etc.
Whoever told you they aren't known for dancing lied to you😂
I love their dance, rap, vocals, visuals...all the things😊
If you like dance you'll enjoy their dance practices. I suggest reacting to their m/v then watch the dance practices for those songs.
My favorite dance is EASY, THUNDEROUS, DOMINO(no m/v for that), FREEZE, HALL OF FAME(live performance), MEGAVERSE.
You should check out The 39th Golden disc awards. They perform MEGAVERSE, SCLASS, and HALL OF FAME. It's an amazing performance! 😊
Agree!! They have my favorite dancers in kpop and i love their choreos!
Yes! Exactly. Would really love to see mv and dance practice or live performance or some sort of combo in each reaction if you like to see dancing. The choreos are not always featured fully in their mvs as those are generally more for storytelling.
I'm Brazilian and i feel that latin vibe on this music too ❤❤
1:40-1:45 sent me 😂 Felix is so recognizable for his voice
8 singers, 8 rappers, 8 dancers = SKZ
And 8 kings
Ty so much for reacting to this song!!! Not complaining AT ALL because I love to watch this choreo, but this isn't the official mv, it's a performance video. I really hope you watch the official one, too, even if it's only on your own time bc it's EPIC.

K-pop isn’t really a specific genre of music, it’s the industry itself so there’s a little bit of every genre when it comes to K-pop.
One of the better descriptions I've seen. Well done, there. People seem to like making it rather complicated.
That's not true.
Have you never watched anything where they talk about the music? Any of the reactions from Koreans?
When they talk about a "classic" or "expected" K-pop sound, it means K-pop has its own sound. Also, SKZ broke all the rules and created their own genre, you can't break rules if there aren't any.
If you are a rap fan, you will love Stray Kids. They have fabulous rappers and make their own stuff. Most songs include rap but there is more heavy rap stuff in their b sides. Try unit song Muddy Water. 3racha (Bang Chan, Changbin and Han), the production unit was also a predebut rap unit who posted their stuff to sound cloud. Try 3racha (the self titled song) and HeyDay. They also do solos like I Got It (by Han) and Cypher (Changbin).
You immediately need to see the "Chk Chk Boom" official mv.and "Mountains" mv
Will do! Probably next video :)
Felix (the one with the deep voice) seriously reminds me if Cloud and Sepiroth had a love child (from final fantasy vii video game) 🩶🔥
I totally agree with you, I wish I found them earlier as I have only been a Stay (fandom name) for a few months but man I’m so glad I found them!!
Lalalala, S-Class, and Mountains I would recommend next. Their songs are so fun and most of them are very motivating and about being true to yourself or just being yourself. Love them so much!!

I haven't spent much time with the dance practices to these newest songs yet but I have no doubt they are awesome)
I'm so glad I stanned this group since pre debut 😩🤌
Yep, definitely a reggaeton base on the music, hence the spanish vocabulary fitting so well!
No spanish heritage on anyone in the group... S. Korean and Australian nationals.
How many singers? They can ALL sing, the predominantly vocal line includes Seungmin, I.N, Bang Chan, and Lee Know. But it is literally no joke when folks comment the "8 rappers, 8 singers, 8 dancers, etc....
That's how brilliant they are they can just incorporate whatever genre it is.
Thanks for listening, appreciating and commenting.
So fun to watch a new STAY in the making. Looking forward to watching you journey. Based on your reactions I'd suggest Thunderous, Easy, Topline and the Sound as your next reactions. You might also enjoy Changbin's rap feature in Milli and F.Hero's (Thai rappers) MV Mirror, Mirror.
I really love ur reactions to the guys. Feels like discovering them all over again. I find that people discover them when they need to. I know so many who have been changed by Stray Kids. For me I came to them when I was in the darkest place in my life and they helped me through it. Welcome to Stayville!!! These guys don't miss. Highly recommend checking out God's Menu, Thunderous, Venom, LALALALA, TOPLINE, Item, S-Class, Easy, Domino dance practice video and check out their performance videos, they are made for live performances
The deep voiced person you like a lot is Felix, also my fav, along with Han, one of the fast rappers. All 8 can sing, rap and dance! I like your format of just watching first for the music and visuals then a second time for the lyrics and details. I'm a long-time stay and was lucky enough to go to their concert last year. They work so hard to write, produce and just about everything! I love them so much. I can only recommend checking out Monsta X, my only other top fav K-pop group. Oh, a Korean band called The Rose is dam good too!! (No dancing cuz they are playing their own instruments!)
I have a playlist of just their Dance practices & Relay Dances. Also, for more Rap- I recommend Topline, Venom, Easy, Freeze and many more. Stray Kids’ rapline is top tier. SKZ have always had the hiphop swagger and their sound is different because they self-produce: beats, lyrics, composition.
Loved your excitement discovering this song and Stray Kids! I totally relate. As others have already pointed out all eight members sing, rap, dance, write, produce. Yes, this song definitely has a Latin vibe to it, down to including some Spanish words and Changbin rolling his rs. Bang Chan, the leader, and Felix, the baritone you liked, are both Australian Korean so English is their first language. They intersperse English frequently and have some songs that are fully English. They also have Japanese songs. Even a bit of French in one song. Stray Kids discography is very diverse and there is something for everyone but their title tracks tend to be very hype. Some of their title tracks would be God’s Menu, Thunderous, Maniac and La La La La. They have songs that are more rap focused like Topline and Superbowl and the rap line subgroup of Changbin, Hyunjin, Han and Felix has a song Muddy Water. They have songs that are more vocal centric like Cover Me and Leave and the vocal line of Bang Chan, Lee Know, Seungmin and IN has a song Waiting for Us. They have OSTs including Top and Slump and most recently Slash which is in the Deadpool Wolverine movie. They are fantastic live and as you’ve noticed already amazing dancers. They just headlined Lolla in Chicago as well as IDays and BST Hyde Park so you can get an idea of their festival vibes and their award show performances are legendary. They performed at and took home the trophy at the VMAs last year. There are also dance practice videos and one take videos where you can get a true representation of their live vocals. Members also have solo and subgroup songs. Felix has a song called Deep End that really showcases his beautiful tone and range.
Felix😊😊deep voice..😂
Stray kids is not a grup,is a family
Welcome 🎉❤

Stray Kids produced for themself such a great song im so upset im addicted to this song !!!
“i’m getting a rap vibe from this guy” about changbin. 😎 yeah, he can sing, but he is A RAPPER. absolutely considered one of the best in k-pop and in korea, and makes lists for worldwide as well. the more you listen to them the more you’ll freak out over changbin and han when they rap.
So glad you found Stray Kids. They are my favorite - I love everything about them!!! Looking forward to your Stray Kids reactions!!!!! 💯❤💥
Something that STAYs really love about Stray Kids is that you can always enjoy the music being sure that it has meaningful lyrics that will bring you confidence, joy, tears, comfort, pride, etc. Because they write their own lyrics, I think they're pretty much always good, and for sure always clever and well thought (full of rhymes, word plays with both korean and english, sometimes other languages, full of images, and more).
I love that the first 3 you mentioned (Besides Felix's deep voice ) are 3Racha, saying they fit so well with the music... Well, they wrote and produced it, SO YES!!! Love it!
Also, the captions for them are probably one of the more accurate ones you'll get on UA-cam, we've got 2 Australians in this group (They won't allow the lyrics of their own song to be misleading)! xD
* I saw people already told you that they are most definitely known for their incredible dancing.
* About the amount of singers
appers\dancers in the group, well...they can all actually sing, rap, and dance. They are insane for that. They do have units though, 3Racha, Dance Racha, and Vocal Racha.
* You should watch the official MV for this, it's insane!
* ALSO! We love that people care for their lyrics. It's meaningful for us because they are self produced, everything is created by them so it's important to us, the fans, that reactors actually care for the lyrics. Thank you!
Saurrr just to clarify!!! Idk who in the world said they are more known for being lyricist but they are VERY well known for all parts, i will agree though that the "more known for being lyricists" part will fall more on 3RACHA'S part (btw you should look into their Discography!!) but even still 3RACHA are known for being IMMACULATE dancers/singers/ vocalist/visuals/literally ALL-ROUNDERS, ect.!! And STAY can agree! 🩵
(No hate to who ever said this just wanted to clarify! 😁)
Wait who said SKZ is not good dancers 🤬🤣🤣🤣 - They do it all and flawlessly may I add 🫣
@@greenboucher6372 I dont think i ever said they werent good dancers! I said that I was told to listen to their lyrics instead of watching their dancing
@@HawaiianMusicReactsOMG I didnt say u said it hahaha And I was Just kidding thats why I laughed 🫣and I know what they meant as its hard to focus on all at once especially if you look at their m/‘s
Also They have 3 sub units but they can all rap sing and dance
3Racha is their main rappers and producing unit, Bang Chan (Leader and Korean Australian), Changbin and Han
DanceRacha is main dancers, Lee Know, Hyunjin and Felix (Deep Voice and Korean Australian)
VocalRacha is the lead vocalists Seungmin and I.N
I know… I was thinking the same thing 😱😂🤣. ‘Easy’ dance practice should put that to rest 😏😉
4:31 Thats Bang Chan, the creator of Stray Kids, leader, main producer, lyricist.
Skz has no weak points or members. They are a complete package. Bang Chan picked the right ppl for his group.
Skz dance practices are always a must
Changbin, one of best rappers in industry, giving rap vibes? No way :D it was funny, thank you for great reactions, we love to watch someone fall as hard as we did :)
Stray kids is actually all Korean and Bang Chan(the leader) and Felix the guy you liked is both from Australia but Bang Chan moved to Australia at a very young age ❤ hope you can learn and get to know them better they are very talented (and VERY funny😂)❤❤
More Stray kids reactions ❤ I recommend TOPLINE NEXT!
The one in the jacket wilth white and brown/orange is Lee Know he was about to become choreographer before training to be Kpop idol. They all can sing,dance and rap but are also kind of split on units. 3racha are Bang Chan [speaking part] Changbin [the one that made you mention spanish] and Han [white beanie] they are rap line also producers lyricists and composers for the most of the songs [Bang chan chose themembers for Skz himself and they are self produced both are rare things in kpop] Danceracha are Deep voice Felix, guy with the scarf thingy on the head Hyunjin and as I mentioned Lee Know,Vocal Racha Seugmin - t shirt black and white short hair and I.n [jeaongin is his actual name] orange/blond hair,black tank top. You will notice a lot play with words and their sound/meaning in korean and English,often these things are idea of Changbin because he likes stuff like that
Straykids are 8 vocalists+8 rappers+8 dancers+8 songwriters+8 producers+8 visuals+8 genuises❤❤❤
As you can see from the fact that there are performance videos, SKZ are all about the performance. The lyrics are incredible, and meaningful, and have a message, but the performance is how they present the song to us.
Its supposed to have a Latin feel, some of the members got into latin music and they decided it would be a fun genre to play with.
Stray Kids (as well as other kpop groups) like to explore different genres and cultures, so this time, they wanted to incorporate Spanish lyrics and Latin elements inn the music ^^
You should Watch a 2024 guide to skz you'll get all the information!!!
Looking forward for more straykids reactions! Some of their songs have dance practices or live performances as well, some reactors like to listen to the mv, then the dance practice, or a lyric video, then the music video etc, so they can more easily see different aspects
If you like rap then you have the best group have good rappers and am sure you'll love it ❤❤❤
MY RECCOMMENDATION FOR THEIR DISCOGRAPHY (U WONT REGRET)🩷
- top tier instrumental: miroh, venom, slash (deadpool ost), item
- chefs kiss song: hall of fame, back door, social path
- crazy rap: heyday by 3racha, 3racha by 3racha
- slower songs (u will be gagged by their vocals): COVER ME, secret secret, leave
and if you'd like a bit of insight to stray kids, it might bring more videos to look up, Stray kids by stray kids.
I enjoyed the way you structured this - listening and watching the choreo and THEN reading the lyrics! Glad you enjoyed this one and can't wait to see your MV reaction!!!
What a great Performance Video !!!
I really love watching you genuinely appreciate them and want to learn more. You pausing and going back to talk about what you like about them is actually really nice. It makes me feel like I’m watching them as a new fan
Welcome to Stray Kids (SKZ).
The members are 6 Koreans and 2 Australians. 8 multi talented young men, 23 - 27 years old. The group is self produced. All members can sing, rap and dance. All members write lyrics and compose music.
I highly recommend to react to a SKZ guide from 2023 or 2024. It should be a long one, to do SKZ justice. The long ones are worth watching and very informative.
Please consider to react to the MV of Chk chk boom. It's fantastic.
Recommendations for MVs:
Venom, Freeze, Mountains, Stray Kids, Top Line, Get lit, Maniac, S- class, Easy
Live performances:
SKZ MAMA2022 Venom and Maniac
SKZ MAMA 2023
SKZ London Hyde park (July 2024)
SKZ Chicago Lollapalooza (August 2024)
I hope, you will enjoy, since you praised them so much.
Stay with us STAYS and react to SKZ. Thanks very much indeed.
Greetings from Germany 🌸
Just a quick correction, just for info...both Bang Chan and Felix are of Korean background; but only Felix was born in Australia, BC, aka Christopher, was born in Korea and his family soon moved to Australia, where he mostly grew up, hence both having that lovely Sydney speak. So, g-day, mate, have a noice one. Hope I didn't add too much confusion to the discussion.
@@ravenimperatrix Their nationality is Australian.
Stray kids are known for their heavy sound music or noise music but they do have balldes as well there are 2main rappers han and changbin and other members rap too as you can see and 2 main vocalists but all of them sing as well and 3 main dancers but everyone can dance as well they produce 99% of their music bangchan is the main producer!!! And actually this song is a bit toned down for them they put a little bit of mainstream music into their signature stray kids music thats why!!
Thanks for reacting to Stray Kids, will be looking out for more. So glad you're liking the rabbit hole
8 dancer
8 singer
8 rapper
8 freaking Talanted boys
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My favorite is also Felix with the sexy deep voice.. he is perfect😩🔥
He is my favorite too hecis Felixxx the man with deep voice and aggressive dance 😭😭😭 he is the best and also my other bias chan is the one you loved and mentioned 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kpop isn't a genre. Skz raps, sings, and dances, and puts out pop, rock, punk, whatever they write. One thing they never do is BUY their songs. Kpop as an industry should try to stay away from that. You want your artists to be able to write, compose, and produce. I know how you feel--I felt the same way when i found them.
I never thought of Kpop as an industry thats nice to know!
You’re going to LOVE this rabbit hole if you decide to go down it. Everything you say you like, they will deliver 😊
I’ll be following your journey!!
Hello from Chile! Thanks for this reaction! ❤
Woah Hi !! Thats so cool! Never thought I would have a fan from somewhere outside the US!

4:23 That's my lovely leader Bangchan, he is originally from Australia and he is the one collecting the groups member
And he is also the one producing each one of their song with his unit 3racha that includes the rappers Han Nd Changbin
The Felix Effect is alive and strong! 🙌
My sunshine Felix everyone’s favourite 🤩 😂
Also the one rapping which you mentioned first, the purple hair, is changbin known as one of the best rappers world wide!!! For real, he said in the making of video, he held back very much of his power for this song. But check outcsongs like doodle, jjam, miroh(!!!!!) and get flashed, like i did.
You will love the song 3racha and "i got it" where HAN raps will blow your mind.
And do not forget: HeY Day!!!!!! The 3racha anthem!!
I think you should react to a guide to stray kids
Like a fandom guide??
@@HawaiianMusicReacts yup. the fans make guide for stray kids every year.
Stray Kids is a group that has no positions, the leader of the group (Bangchan, he also created the group and handpicked the members) said that there is no need to define positions since they are all good in any role, there are 8 rappers, 8 incredible vocalists and 8 dancers, if you delve deeper into Stray Kids' entire discography you will be able to observe the variety of talents, there are also live performances where the "vocalists" rap and the "rappers" sing, the 8 members do not they stay stuck in one thing, so don't think "hm this one is a rapper" or "this one is vocal" because all 8 are lol
Thank you ❤ I love your reactions
Please check out the actual M/V even if you don’t post it. Please react to Stay Kids - Mixtape:OH on The First Take. It will show you their live vocals and a different side to them
You should listen to Slash from the Deadpool soundtrack - Stray Kids really did something there
The quality stays on PEAK! RAAAHHHHH
Ouch! Pun Alert!
I was about to suggest that! since their MVs have so much going on is hard to focus on both that and the lyrics so you can just watch the mv first and the focus on the lyrics :)
Plus you need to watch the official MV of this song!!
love this reacton!!
If you like their dancing then watch their kingdom performances. They’re amazing and out of this world. I have been going down the SKZ rabbit hole. 😅
If you liked this, check out Domino and Easy dance practices!
Got a new subscriber, love your reaction to my favorite band ❤ I too wish I found them years ago.
Also check out Topline!
SKZ's staff have translated the MV, it's not auto translate, so it should be pretty on with what they are actually saying
Just found your channel.. welcome to best group on kpop rabbit hole lol 😂
Thanks for the reactin!
Felix deep voice and Australian
If youre a rap fan you should defo check out 3 racha (the song) and hey day, its one the rap unit song but still shows them off amazingly. Plus changbins mirror ft
Welcome back man
I’ve left a few notes in the pinned comment, but here are some of my favourites (in no particular order) to add to your list 😊
Easy
Double Knot (incl dance practice. They also have eng vers)
Miroh
Levanter (also has eng vers.)
Venom
The Sound
Circus
Maniac
Thunderous
Cheese
Side Effects
Mirror
Grrr
Hall of fame (live)
Scars (first take and dance performance)
Domino (dance practice, no mv, only unveil/teaser)
You should check out the Festival Version.
You should watch LaLaLaLa and Christmas evel they are so good also god’s menu and backdoor ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The word 'Kpop' is really misleading. In kpop there’s groups like Stray kids that do mostly rap songs, and then there’s bands like Xdinary Heroes that’s full on a rock band that sings in Korean and English, another example is a group like Twice that makes more like a pop vibe. My point is that K-pop is ruined by the stereotypes that non kpop fans have of it.
Btw the guy with the deep voice that you liked is Felix! He’s from Australia 💗
You should check out Ateez if you also want really good dancing! They aren't as rap based but they have some of the best vocalists in K-Pop (with some really decent rappers). Here r some personal recommendations if you do ever want to react to them at some point
1. Work, most recent comeback (also similarly has a spanish influence, Ateez tends to have a lot of spanish influence)
2. Thanxx
3. Guerrilla (Rock/Metal influenced)
4. Matz (if you really want to see more rap, but it is a subunit with only two of the members)
5. Crazy Form
6. Deja Vu
7. Fireworks I'm the one
8. Hala Hala (If you wanna check out some pretty impressive dancing)
9. The Leaders (This is a b-side without a video, so you'd probably watch a lyric video instead)
10. Halazia
This is a long list so of course you don't have to check ALL of these out, just some recommendations if you do want to delve deeper into K-Pop and other groups.
Dude, who be lying to you, saying Stray Kids aren’t dancers?
Lol i know ive gotten this comment like a hundred times
I subscribed to the channel👍✨
I want to listen to their songs and have fun together.😊💕
Am i subscribed to Ur channel?
Yep yep yep
Um .. this isn't the mv. Stray Kids aren't known as dancers?! Excuse me, have you met Hyunjin, Lee Know, and Felix? Three of the best dancers in KPop?!
Whoever pranked you is hilarious!
Please check out the real mv. Then Thunderous. Then Korean version of Fam.
"You nice, keep going."
Haha yeah ive gotten this comment a lot. I’m still learning so dont come for me😂
Rap? Okey React to:
3racha
Heyday
Maze of memories
Mirror mirror (changbin's rap is amazing)
If you rap lover you need to hear
Freeze!!
They have fully vocal sings, such as Cover Me, Twilight etc, do they all singers
Whoever told you they are not big in dancing LIED to you man ❤ None of them is Spanish and they can incorporate Spanish influences all they want, permission from a spaniard 😊
K-pop is the industry, not a genre 😊
Yeah Ive been told! I’m learning so much!🫶🏻
Thank you for reacting. But fr, Duuude!! Who said, skz is more known for their lyrics than their dancing??? Are you kidding me? They have an immense status for being in the upper top ten for their ridiculous good choreography , their their ability to synchronize and to showcase multiple different styles. Watch domino practice video or....any of their practise videos.
And if you want to go deep down the rabbit hole, watch out for the kingdom episodes like gods dude du or wolfgang.
And for their vocal abilities search I'll be your man.
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉😊
I hope you watched the official video. 😊❤
K pop is not a genre, it's the industry. Some of the best rappers in existence are kpop idols.
