They have some of the best rappers for Kpop. They write their music and are self produced. They experiment with sounds in their music and definitely have their own sound. My personal favorite is Double Knot and Gods Menu to begin with. District 9 has amazing rapping along with Easy. I’m glad you enjoyed their song.
Stray Kids are awesome! They are self-produced. And they are about to have a major comeback too. God's Menu, Easy, Back Door, Cheese, Domino (no MV but there's a great dance practice),lots of great ones. New Comeback is March 18th.
I love the fact that he is so shocked he couldn't almost breath whiles watching the music video. Fun fact: noeasy is the name of the album cause it ressambles "noisy " and they like to do different music even if it's called noisy by some people/haters.
7:59 the way you put it, Stray Kids did invented a new genre, it's called Mala Taste 🔥 Means "unique sound created through genre blending that is addictive to the listener". That genre was born from their God's Menu song.
I recommend reacting to god's menu by Stray Kids. It's a bop Also fun fact they are a self producing group, all of their songs were written and produced by 3racha(bang chan,han, changbin) sub unit in stray kids
So they are amazing artists and they produce their own music. The previous title song is called God's Menu it's so hard hitting you should def check that out. Other songs to check out from them Easy Double Knot Domino (no MV lyric video) Maze of Memories Christmas EveL And that's just some..
Yes, Stray Kids are a very talented group. What’s amazing is that they produce their own music. You should read their lyrics because they always have something meaningful to say. I recommend you watch the full trailer on their new album coming out next week, it’s called Oddinary (visually amazing , no music LOL). You got it right, they have been recognized for their own unique sound and even creating a new genre called the “mala taste” genre. I recommend God’s Menu next.
Changbin is one of the fastest rappers in kpop, and is absolutely savage live too. If you thought this was "a lot", check out God's Menu, it will change you 😂❤️🔥 also check out the unveil teaser for oddinary venom, guaranteed to be a banger!
I have no clue what your music tastes are, but STAY (the fandom) have found you now, so if you tell us what your interests are and how broad of a range you're open to hearing, we'll tailor suggestions to your tastes. Since SKZ has close to 140 songs already (factoring in alternative-language versions, collabs, independent releases, etc), there's a lot to choose from. And since they're self-producing in the "they are literally the main producers, in charge of their music" sense, and they have the freedom and interest to experiment all over the place, there's a broad range of genres/styles worked into their discography. The first two rappers and the guy without a shirt wrote and produced this. The shirtless one is Australian and has a big interest in western-influenced music (that's what he grew up on), which is part of the reason SKZ's music doesn't really fit into the stereotypical kpop mold. They incorporate various forms of trap and EDM, they use more English more naturally than most groups (two of the eight members are Australian, not Korean), and they're one of the most rap-heavy groups in the industry. All eight members rap, sing, and dance, so they've got everything from psytrance to experimental rap to ballads to dance bops to funk, and the skills to pull it all off. Tell us what you're open to hearing, and we'll give you recommendations. We live for this sh1t, and some of us have no lives. Personally, I'd suggest taking a shot at stuff from all across the genre/style board, but I realize different people have different ranges of musical interest. I'll give you just one quick recommendation right now, the unveil (aka teaser) for the intro track of their new album that's dropping next week. The album is ODDINARY, and the intro track is "VENOM." The clip is less than a minute long, so it's not a big time investment, but you'll get an earful of what we're looking forward to: ua-cam.com/video/j8xman89zdY/v-deo.html
Thank you for your reaction to Stray Kids. This song is for sure a hype song and directed to the haters off their No Easy album which is a play on words cuz the haters called their music noisy. Stray kids don't really have a type or style of music they do it all and they love to use different sounds ro mix with the music. They love to experiment with different genres, beats and sounds mixthem all together some times in 1 song. They are an 8 member debut in 2018 with 9 members but lost one for personal reasons in 2019. They write, compose, arrange and produce all their own music. They have a sub rap unit called 3Racha with 3 members BangChan, Han and Changbin. This is the producingteam of stray kids and also amazing rappers. Stray kids do have heavy rap songs but dont let that full you. All of them can dance, rap and have amazing vocals. Love for you to react to pre debut Hellevator mv, District 9 mv has some amazing raps and also check out Miroh mv got them fheir first win, God's Menu mv, and Back Door mv. Their songs are all good depending on your mood. My favorite are Victory Song mv and Easy mv but I love them all. They are getting ready for their comeback with mini album ODDINARY this is with a darker theme. Stray kids are the only ones that make movie trailers before an album release. Check out their ODDINARY main movie trailer its 3.30 min long and amazing. Also 2 members are from Australia.
"The man was too stunned to speak" lol Glad you enjoyed it man. They take a lot of pride in being a self-producing group. I'd love to see more reactions on Stray Kids ("Easy" is a really good track)
Please check these following M/V of them, they're the one who responsible for their all discography. Please check this. 1. God's Menu. 2. Double Knot. 3.Easy. 4.Victory Song. 5.Miroh. 6.Domino. 7.Cheese. 8.District 9. 9.Side Effects. 10.Tortoise and Hare. 11.Maze Memories. 12.Got It (HAN) 13. Cypher (CHANGBIN).
As all the other comments say, God's menu, Domino, Chrismas EveL, and Backdoor are other songs that you can hear to begin with the stray kids journey, all their music it's so great, you wont regret listen to it
Yes Stray kids!! Thank you for ur reaction! They have the best rappers in kpop! I think u would like "double knot" + "maze of memories" + "God's menu" also they produce and write their own music 🥰🥰
Stray kids is a korean rap group. They are also self produce group, the member produce their own music and wrote their own lyrics. U will be surprise that all 8of the members can rap. Since u are a rapper and might love rap music i recommend: - Easy (mv) - maze of memories (skz2021) - 3rd eyes (skz2021) - tortious and the hare (skz2021) - god menu (mv) Btw thank you for your reaction! Love to see more:)
As others have said, they are about 90% self produced. They make nothing but amazing music. And they're some of the most amazing humans you'll ever see. If you're more into rap heavy songs: Maze of Memories Miroh Double Knot Easy District 9 Tortoise and The Hare God's Menu Domino My Pace Grr-Beware Boxer Victory Song TA Side Effects (psytrance genre, they get hate for it but it's actually one of their best songs- and that's saying something because all their music is amazing) 3racha- (sub unit within Skz which consists of the 3 producers) We Go, Runner's High, Zone If you're into kind of mellow rap: Chronosaurus, TMT, Slump (they did this for the Tower of God anime), Voices, I am YOU, My Side, Top (also for the Tower of God anime), B Me (one of my favorites) Ssick And if you're into rock/rap: Awaken, Yayaya, Rock, Question, And I'm gonna throw in Wolfgang just because it's a damn bop. They have SO many more though. Also, Thunderous was from their album Noeasy/Noisy and it was a clapback at haters who call their music 'noise' music. They have another one in the same album named Cheese, that's also a bop.
they are actually one of the most unique groups, they are literally involved in the production of their music and they have their own style. most of their song are rap heavy songs hope you react to it :) Hellevator District 9 Easy Domino Double Knot Maze of Memories
I feel you when you got overwhelmed in the middle of the m/v because the same thing happened to us too. Thanks for the reaction & the breakdown, please dive in to more Stray Kids.
1:23 this reaction gives me life🤣🤣🤣 This is my second watch and won’t be the last, thank you so much for introducing me to Stray Kids and now that I’m a huge fan of them I’m so proud of my boys in this one❤️❤️❤️
Omg I love when people discover my babies 🥲 they're very good please react more of them 🔥🔥🔥 My personal favs beside Thunderous: - Easy - God's Menu - Miroh - Christmas EveL - The Tortoise and the Hare Please react to those 💕💕
2:31, 4:15 IM DYING🤣🤣🤣 tysm for making these videos, as of ten minutes ago I’ve been introduced to Stray Kids and so far I am THRIVING on these beats wowow
If you enjoyed the rapping, Changbin (the first rapper on the video) did a collab with a couple Thai rappers. It's called Mirror Mirror and it is amazing. Highly recommend
I just discovered Stray Kids a month ago and I have watched a LOT of reaction videos in that time and the emotional rollercoaster on your face in this video might be my favourite. "This beat goes so hard for no reason." I'm still laughing.
Welcome to kpop ! Your life is never gonna be the same The thing is all kpop production almost is top notch ! They do put billions in production ! I mean it every group literally..
Loved your reaction! Stray kids are having a comeback album on the 18th March called ‘Oddinary’. Maniac will be the title track and I believe that it will be an absolute banger. Hope you check it out when it gets released
Stray Kids are amazing and they're having their new comeback and gonna be releasing a new album "ODDINARY" with MANIAC as their title track on March 18th 0pm EST
Thanks for reacting to Stray Kids! They are a very talented and versatile! They write compose and produce their own music and they are amazing. Their highlight is rap and hip hop. Please react to GOD'S MENU and BACK DOOR.
Thunderous" is a diss track, a clapback at the haters who sneer at Stray Kids' so-called "noise music". They're saying that they're going to keep experimenting and making the music they want to make, no matter what people say about them. 3RACHA is the sub-unit Rapper's of SKZ with Changbin, Han and Bang Chan. They have additional separate albums of their own. Changbin is featured on a Thai rapper Milli's "Mirror Mirror" mv along with another Thai rapper named F Hero. Also check out Stray Kids "Christmas EveL", "Maniac", "Venom" and "Freeze " mv's.
I feel like since your a Rapper, Stray Kids is definitely a group for you. I don't exactly know what kind of rap you like or if you like vocal based music too, but I'll give you some suggestions to react to. Stray Kids, as you've probably been informed by the other commenters, are a Self-Producing group who heavily base themselves off the genre that they created, known as the "Mala Taste". This is what haters may describe as "Noisy" and "Loud" but it's actually a style only Stray Kids can really pull off. But the thing is, all of them can rap and sing, and they cover many different genres of music. Song Recs: Easy (A catchy EDM track) Hellevator (More of a sad one) District 9 (Their debut song, rap heavy) Voices (One of my faves, really emotional) God's Menu (Rap heavy, made them popular) All in (Another one of my faves, Rap heavy) Side Effects (Controversy for being weird, but I think it's amazing) They're also coming out with a new mini album called "Oddinary" and a world tour down the track to. They recently released their 2 Unveil tracks, "Venom" which seems like a hip hop kind of song, and "Lonely St." which is most likely, from the MV and the theories, a very sad song. (Some people claim that in Lonely St, a member killed himself, and the other members are breaking down) Unveil tracks are basically 1 minute or less to tease a song. From your other videos, I also don't think you know a lot about K-pop or the language yet, so if you feel a bit eh about the language barriers, Stray Kids speak really good English. Two members are Australian (Bangchan and Felix), Three are fluent/close to being fluent (Han, Seungmin and Hyunjin) and the other three know the basics or a bit more. That was a lot of information and you might not even bother reading it lol, but it's there in case you need it. I recommend watching more music videos to see if you like their style before watching a guide.
Bro, I discovered you here on YT because of reactions to Nicki Minaj and other rappers. Never thought you had a reaction vid to Stray Kids (my ultimate fave k-pop boy group). W to you bro haha
Hahaha omg! XD I couldn't believe it when I read the video title! So now after Blind Channel you also react to Kpop? I love it! XD And yes, now you discovered my weird music taste that mostly consists of Blind Channel and Kpop groups. :P (Although I don't listen to Stray Kids that much but Thunderous is really cool! ^^ )
God's Menu is the song to go for when you start with Stray Kids, it never disappoints, it hits hard and never gets out of your brain. Glad I found your channel, I can't wait to see more Stray Kids reactions (:
As rapper you should definitely check out more of their rap heavy songs, they have the best rap game in kpop!!!! Stray Kids * Double Knot * Wolfgang OT8 * God's Menu * Easy * Maze of Memories 🔥 * The Tortoise and the Hare * Victory Song * Domino * We Go
Stray Kids are some heavy hitters in kpop (they're with JYPE, one of the four biggest labels in SK)... but you'll find that the overall production quality is top notch for the majority of acts in the industry. It's a HIGHLY competitive market, so even small companies production quality faaaaaar surpasses the vast majority of what you'll see in the west. A lot of a labels resources is typically put into the title track music video specifically, because that's what sells the albums. A few other great rappers in the kpop sphere are; Agust D - Daechwita RM - Joke (this one uses a sample from the Run The Jewels track 'Oh My Darling' and is FIRE!) Monsta X - Gambler NCT U - Misfit
My favorite thing is seeing people discover Stray Kids! They are amazing and have so much more too see! I just subbed because I cant wait to see you take that ride 😀. I suggest God’s Menu and Back Door next.
Since you mentioned their rapping, I'll add some info. There's no official positions (most kpop groups have "main rapper," "lead dancer," "sub vocal," etc designations; not sure how familiar you are) in SKZ, since all eight can do it all. But the two most frequent rappers -- the ones who'd be the main rappers if the group had positions -- are two of the fastest in the industry (using an 8-second constant: 15th at 9.25 sps and 12th at 9.75 sps, as of the last industry-wide calculation, August 2021), and those two along with the third most frequent rapper are the three fastest rappers in the 4th generation. More importantly (at least to me) is that they're not just respectably fast -- they're _good._ I can talk faster than they rap; it doesn't make me a good rapper. They play with flows, with tones, with words, rather than just spitting out a bunch of triplets or sixteenths and calling it a day. I mean, there's a quintuplet worked into the pansori section of rap in this song, and it's so smooth I don't think you even noticed. They rap fast enough to check off that box but also leave themselves room to actually make the rapping _interesting,_ which gets impossible once you pass a certain speed on either end of the sps scale. SKZ are famous for having one of the best raplines in the entire industry, ever. All the ambient sounds/effects (car horns, etc) are part of the original song. SKZ includes car horns, hawks screeching, tigers roaring, air raid sirens blaring, etc in their tracks all the time, so when you hear them in a SKZ video, they're pretty much guaranteed to be part of the actual song, put there by the members who produced it (especially the shirtless Australian). Fwiw, this particular song is a clapback because they get a sh1t-ton of hate for making "noise music" and not sounding like mainstream-approved kpop. The entire album this song is on is a clapback album, with the first four songs being blatant about it in lyrics, and the intro song being a straight-up diss track. In regards to the singing: yeah, the buildup and then the vocal calm-down is common in kpop; it just is (because it's kpop, which means basically every group has rappers AND vocals who need their moment). But when SKZ uses it, it's for a legit reason. More than once, I've seen other reactors have the exact same feeling: "I like most of it, but that break the vocals cause in the buildup doesn't fly for me." And then they listen a few more times, maybe to a few more songs, and it starts to make sense. SKZ does have songs _without_ that vocal break. But the ones they use it in are often the table-flipping songs, where the break ends up making the buildups more effective, whereas if it were just 3-4 minutes of nonstop full speed ahead, it'd get boring and numbing. But yeah, it can take a few listens to start feeling it the way it's meant to be felt.
Huh since when does SKZ not have official positions?? They always have had them, and they revised them a couple of years after debut. (E.g Seungmin became main vocal, Hyunjin become main dancer along with Lee Know)
@@crimsontranquility they dont have official positions anymore. it was removed from the JYP website i think weeks or a month before God's Menu was released. sooo ever since God's Menu era, they dont have official positions anymore.
@@crimsontranquilityThey haven't for a while. The terms obviously still frequently get used, even by SKZ, but _officially_ they don't exist. The positions were changed into listing of roles sometime after W left, and then even the roles were removed. We all know who mostly does what, of course, but in terms of _official_ listing of position, they're gone.
K-pop is a music style that I feel like I should get to know at least a little bit, but I haven't figured out where to start. This one sounded really cool, and I enjoyed your reaction to it as well! Maybe I'll just kick back and let you do the hard work, so I can get my introduction to the genre through your reaction videos :D
They have a lot more liberty than most K-pop band because they write and produce their own songs. They are a very rap- oriented k-pop band. They are never afraid to explore their artistry. As a rapper, you might like the "swagging" of Easy. One of my favorite songs. But it's hard to choose a fav songs. They never miss the mark. Thanks for the reaction.
StrayKids are definitely built differently!! There is no better way I can put it in🔥 they are just SO COOL AND COMPLETE in every way, be it production, beats, rapping, singing, dancing, lyrical artistry, storytelling, concepts.... + Visuals and humility. Crazy right? I never thought I'd follow a group of artists this way at this age but since ever I got to know them, I was changed lol I still cannot fathom the amount of talent these guys have. They are genius and it's crazy to me!! You will definitely never regret going down this rabbit hole whether you keep following them or stop your journey & call it a crazy experience ✨ they are the typa artist who make you go "ah StrayKids, yeh wow" when you get reminded of them✨
I also recommend Maze of Memories of Stray Kids is a song in which all the members rap you will also like a lot Here I leave the link ua-cam.com/video/Mi60tuxDtBI/v-deo.html
Yesss Welcome to Stray Kids Sean. You will Love STRAY KIDS. They are too DOPE, different, make their own beats and All rounders. More STRAY KIDS pleaseeee ♥️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I really love reactions where you can not only see the enjoyment and surprise of the listener but they also give insightful and well thought out commentary. You have my sub.
Luv ur reaction man... Stray Kids got their very own level... Hey.. check tis other MV >> Mirror Mirror produced by Nino & perform by F.Hero + Milli feat Changbin (Stray Kids)... You got to see this Sean... See you next reaction.. chiao frm Malaysia
Thank you for checking out Stray Kids and for sharing your in-depth analysis at the end! It was interesting to hear thoughts from a fresh perspective, someone who's never heard/seen their work before
Great Reaction! Thx for being open minded and enjoying, appreciating #STRAYKIDS Hard Work! 👍🏼 Edit: in this reaction, you mentioned you’ve previously reacted to BTS ~ I just went back to the earliest video here and scrolled til I got back to Thunderous… err~ did not see any (Any) #BTS reactions from you prior. Mmmm~ ok, will scroll to more recent reactions from you, of my guys~ thank you.
One of the reasons Stray Kids has so much money to go into this type of video production is because they don’t spend money on lyricists or hire more than one composer or arranger for each song because they write and compose their own music, and then arrange about 1/3 of their music themselves. They are self producing and self created, which allows them to take these risks in their sound that other groups may not be able to do. They are considered to be Noisy or make noise music, and did they take that personally and named their last comeback NoEasy/Noisy.
I discovered SKZ last summer with their Noeasy album - super talented and unique group. God's Menu, Backdoor, Easy, Double Knot, Domino... TOO MANY SONGS to recommend. They have a ton of bangers and cross a lot of different music genres not just pop. 'STAY' is the name of their fandom and we like to say Stray Kids never disappoint, meaning they don't have a bad song. They're also about to drop a new mini album on March 18th. You should check out their music teasers for ODDINARY. Thanks for discovering Stray Kids and reacting to their MV.
Love your reaction! It is very genuine and informative! Stray Kids have lots of rap heavy songs and I would love to see your opinion and analysis of them! They do have a sound that is unique to them and that’s why I love it! I would recommend you to check out God’s Menu, Back Door, and Easy.
Even new bands have excellent videos. Korean standards are higher. Most videos have sub if you can't use the closed caption. This videos also referenced the Korean Goblin mythology called the Dokkaebi.
I think the main reason why they have they have their ‘own sound’ is because they make their own sound. 3RACHA (members Bang Chan, Changbin and Han) are their main producers who are credited to most of their discography from composition to lyrics to arrangement.
Since I am more into rock and metal I am not that into kpop, but Stray kids' music got me and I love them🥰 some songs to check out: God's menu, Back Door, Mirroh, Side effects, victory song, district 9, Hellevator (probably my favorite), top (Japanese version) and many more that I can't think of rn😁
You definitely need to check out these and you might need a fire extinguisher just in case. And the thing with Stray Kids, you can never expect what comes next bcs they LOVE dramatic beat changes that’s why it’s a whole ass experience with them. 1. God’s Menu 2. Double Knot 4. District 9 (it’s their debut song, rapline is straight up insane since day 1) 5. Domino (unveil track & lyric video, they hv no MV but i promise the beat’s mindblowing) 6. Maze of Memories (they all rap as in rap rap in here) 7. I Got It - by Han (his rap flows are immaculate)
Changbin and Han are the top two fastest rappers in their generation of Kpop (or so I read) and Changbin (the first rapper) can go way faster. Interestingly enough, Seungmin, one of their vocalists, can also rap fast as hell. All of these boys can rap, all can sing, all can dance, all are visuals. Changbin actually has a nice singing voice, though he mostly raps. Han too. They're the darlings of JYP Entertainment, one of the top 3 labels in Korea, so yeah, they're big. :D Also, just for kicks, these boys write, compose, and produce most of their own music. And I believe they have a lot of say with the choreo too.
first time finding your channel and I LOVE how thoughtfully you dissected everything here! Stray Kids specialize in epic bangers like this. (there's a reason why so many metalheads and rap fans fall in love with them hehe) 😎🤘 the creativity, energy and unique sound of Stray Kids music is exactly what pulled me into them too...and their lyrics have a lot of substance as well, with so much clever wordplay and heartfelt meaning. they make all their own music, so authenticity and self-expression are really important to them. I have SO much respect for them as artists. ❤ really hope you'll check out more from them! Stray Kids have some of the best rappers in the kpop industry, so I love watching rappers fall down the rabbit hole lol.
stray kids is a rap based heavy group and you should definitely check out their music! I'd suggest god's menu, district 9, tortoise and the hare and more. you won't be disappointed

They have some of the best rappers for Kpop. They write their music and are self produced. They experiment with sounds in their music and definitely have their own sound. My personal favorite is Double Knot and Gods Menu to begin with. District 9 has amazing rapping along with Easy. I’m glad you enjoyed their song.
More line rap stray kids are amazing
district 9 will forever hold a top spot on my list. still one of my favourite songs to this day.
Stray Kids are awesome! They are self-produced. And they are about to have a major comeback too. God's Menu, Easy, Back Door, Cheese, Domino (no MV but there's a great dance practice),lots of great ones. New Comeback is March 18th.
Glad you enjoyed almost everything about thunderous. Stray Kids is credited for all of their songs. 100% writing, 92.7% composing, 36.5 arranging.
That’s awesome!
I love the fact that he is so shocked he couldn't almost breath whiles watching the music video. Fun fact: noeasy is the name of the album cause it ressambles "noisy " and they like to do different music even if it's called noisy by some people/haters.
7:59 the way you put it, Stray Kids did invented a new genre, it's called Mala Taste 🔥 Means "unique sound created through genre blending that is addictive to the listener". That genre was born from their God's Menu song.
I recommend reacting to god's menu by Stray Kids. It's a bop
Also fun fact they are a self producing group, all of their songs were written and produced by 3racha(bang chan,han, changbin) sub unit in stray kids
So they are amazing artists and they produce their own music. The previous title song is called God's Menu it's so hard hitting you should def check that out.
Other songs to check out from them
Easy
Double Knot
Domino (no MV lyric video)
Maze of Memories
Christmas EveL
And that's just some..
Yes, Stray Kids are a very talented group. What’s amazing is that they produce their own music. You should read their lyrics because they always have something meaningful to say. I recommend you watch the full trailer on their new album coming out next week, it’s called Oddinary (visually amazing , no music LOL). You got it right, they have been recognized for their own unique sound and even creating a new genre called the “mala taste” genre. I recommend God’s Menu next.
Changbin is one of the fastest rappers in kpop, and is absolutely savage live too. If you thought this was "a lot", check out God's Menu, it will change you 😂❤️🔥 also check out the unveil teaser for oddinary venom, guaranteed to be a banger!

To be honest, after watching Straykids my point of view of KPop is changing. Straykids is different, they are soooo FRESH and 🔥🔥🔥
Yes Stray kids!! Thank you for ur reaction! They have the best rappers in kpop! I think u would like "double knot" + "maze of memories" + "God's menu" also they produce and write their own music 🥰🥰
Definitely react to Stray Kids' God's Menu, Easy and Maze of Memories for a heavy rap base.
Stray kids is a korean rap group. They are also self produce group, the member produce their own music and wrote their own lyrics. U will be surprise that all 8of the members can rap.
Since u are a rapper and might love rap music i recommend:
- Easy (mv)
- maze of memories (skz2021)
- 3rd eyes (skz2021)
- tortious and the hare (skz2021)
- god menu (mv)
Btw thank you for your reaction! Love to see more:)
yesssss, Stray Kids is a very complete band
As others have said, they are about 90% self produced. They make nothing but amazing music. And they're some of the most amazing humans you'll ever see.
If you're more into rap heavy songs:
Maze of Memories
Miroh
Double Knot
Easy
District 9
Tortoise and The Hare
God's Menu
Domino
My Pace
Grr-Beware
Boxer
Victory Song
TA
Side Effects (psytrance genre, they get hate for it but it's actually one of their best songs- and that's saying something because all their music is amazing)
3racha- (sub unit within Skz which consists of the 3 producers) We Go, Runner's High, Zone
If you're into kind of mellow rap:
Chronosaurus, TMT, Slump (they did this for the Tower of God anime), Voices, I am YOU, My Side, Top (also for the Tower of God anime), B Me (one of my favorites) Ssick
And if you're into rock/rap:
Awaken, Yayaya, Rock, Question,
And I'm gonna throw in Wolfgang just because it's a damn bop.
They have SO many more though.
Also, Thunderous was from their album Noeasy/Noisy and it was a clapback at haters who call their music 'noise' music.
They have another one in the same album named Cheese, that's also a bop.
It's the Stray Kids vibe for me. They are the pioneers of mala-taste genre! They are their own sound!
they are actually one of the most unique groups, they are literally involved in the production of their music and they have their own style. most of their song are rap heavy songs hope you react to it :)
Hellevator
District 9
Easy
Domino
Double Knot
Maze of Memories

2:31, 4:15 IM DYING🤣🤣🤣 tysm for making these videos, as of ten minutes ago I’ve been introduced to Stray Kids and so far I am THRIVING on these beats wowow
If you enjoyed the rapping, Changbin (the first rapper on the video) did a collab with a couple Thai rappers. It's called Mirror Mirror and it is amazing. Highly recommend
I just discovered Stray Kids a month ago and I have watched a LOT of reaction videos in that time and the emotional rollercoaster on your face in this video might be my favourite. "This beat goes so hard for no reason." I'm still laughing.
Next should be reacting to Stray Kids " Christmas EveL " MV ( its unique and a lot of raps too ) thx 😁
The guy with the deep voice Felix and the one with orange hair bangchan is from Australian
they are amazing, that was the song that caught me and now i am ADDICTED,, stray kids is a one way trip so careful with their songs 😂
Welcome to kpop ! Your life is never gonna be the same
The thing is all kpop production almost is top notch ! They do put billions in production ! I mean it every group literally..
Stray Kids are so special and amazing and you will fall in love with them and end up listening to them every day!!
Stray kids is incredible. PLEASE react to their most famous song "God's Menu".
Loved your reaction! Stray kids are having a comeback album on the 18th March called ‘Oddinary’. Maniac will be the title track and I believe that it will be an absolute banger. Hope you check it out when it gets released
Stray Kids are amazing and they're having their new comeback and gonna be releasing a new album "ODDINARY" with MANIAC as their title track on March 18th 0pm EST
You need to watch domino(it doesnt have a mv but you can watch lyric video or dance practice), double knot and god menu by stray kids
Thank you for reacting to Stray Kids. They are addictive
Your face when the rapping started took me out lmaooo
Thanks for reacting stray kids 🔥❤️
Stray Kids has the BEST rap line in the kpop world
Changbin, the first rapper, is the fastest rapper in kpop. He have lots of solo stuff.. hope you could react to it. Love this reaction!
Thanks for reacting to Stray Kids!
They are a very talented and versatile! They write compose and produce their own music and they are amazing. Their highlight is rap and hip hop.
Please react to GOD'S MENU and BACK DOOR.
Thunderous" is a diss track, a clapback at the haters who sneer at Stray Kids' so-called "noise music". They're saying that they're going to keep experimenting and making the music they want to make, no matter what people say about them. 3RACHA is the sub-unit Rapper's of SKZ with Changbin, Han and Bang Chan. They have additional separate albums of their own. Changbin is featured on a Thai rapper Milli's "Mirror Mirror" mv along with another Thai rapper named F Hero. Also check out Stray Kids "Christmas EveL", "Maniac", "Venom" and "Freeze " mv's.
Nah you're not ready for these crazy ones 😅
I feel like since your a Rapper, Stray Kids is definitely a group for you. I don't exactly know what kind of rap you like or if you like vocal based music too, but I'll give you some suggestions to react to. Stray Kids, as you've probably been informed by the other commenters, are a Self-Producing group who heavily base themselves off the genre that they created, known as the "Mala Taste". This is what haters may describe as "Noisy" and "Loud" but it's actually a style only Stray Kids can really pull off. But the thing is, all of them can rap and sing, and they cover many different genres of music.
Song Recs:
Easy (A catchy EDM track)
Hellevator (More of a sad one)
District 9 (Their debut song, rap heavy)
Voices (One of my faves, really emotional)
God's Menu (Rap heavy, made them popular)
All in (Another one of my faves, Rap heavy)
Side Effects (Controversy for being weird, but I think it's amazing)
They're also coming out with a new mini album called "Oddinary" and a world tour down the track to. They recently released their 2 Unveil tracks, "Venom" which seems like a hip hop kind of song, and "Lonely St." which is most likely, from the MV and the theories, a very sad song. (Some people claim that in Lonely St, a member killed himself, and the other members are breaking down) Unveil tracks are basically 1 minute or less to tease a song.
From your other videos, I also don't think you know a lot about K-pop or the language yet, so if you feel a bit eh about the language barriers, Stray Kids speak really good English. Two members are Australian (Bangchan and Felix), Three are fluent/close to being fluent (Han, Seungmin and Hyunjin) and the other three know the basics or a bit more.
That was a lot of information and you might not even bother reading it lol, but it's there in case you need it. I recommend watching more music videos to see if you like their style before watching a guide.
Bro, I discovered you here on YT because of reactions to Nicki Minaj and other rappers. Never thought you had a reaction vid to Stray Kids (my ultimate fave k-pop boy group). W to you bro haha
God’s menu 🔥🔥🔥🔥 that’s an amazing song by them
Hahaha omg! XD
I couldn't believe it when I read the video title!
So now after Blind Channel you also react to Kpop? I love it! XD
And yes, now you discovered my weird music taste that mostly consists of Blind Channel and Kpop groups. :P
(Although I don't listen to Stray Kids that much but Thunderous is really cool! ^^ )
God's Menu is the song to go for when you start with Stray Kids, it never disappoints, it hits hard and never gets out of your brain. Glad I found your channel, I can't wait to see more Stray Kids reactions (:
As rapper you should definitely check out more of their rap heavy songs, they have the best rap game in kpop!!!!

Stray Kids are some heavy hitters in kpop (they're with JYPE, one of the four biggest labels in SK)... but you'll find that the overall production quality is top notch for the majority of acts in the industry.
It's a HIGHLY competitive market, so even small companies production quality faaaaaar surpasses the vast majority of what you'll see in the west. A lot of a labels resources is typically put into the title track music video specifically, because that's what sells the albums.
A few other great rappers in the kpop sphere are;
Agust D - Daechwita
RM - Joke (this one uses a sample from the Run The Jewels track 'Oh My Darling' and is FIRE!)
Monsta X - Gambler
NCT U - Misfit
My favorite thing is seeing people discover Stray Kids! They are amazing and have so much more too see! I just subbed because I cant wait to see you take that ride 😀. I suggest God’s Menu and Back Door next.
Gods menu, easy, cheese district 9, double knot, back door and soo much more :D
amazing reaction, Stray Kids are best group
Since you mentioned their rapping, I'll add some info.
There's no official positions (most kpop groups have "main rapper," "lead dancer," "sub vocal," etc designations; not sure how familiar you are) in SKZ, since all eight can do it all. But the two most frequent rappers -- the ones who'd be the main rappers if the group had positions -- are two of the fastest in the industry (using an 8-second constant: 15th at 9.25 sps and 12th at 9.75 sps, as of the last industry-wide calculation, August 2021), and those two along with the third most frequent rapper are the three fastest rappers in the 4th generation. More importantly (at least to me) is that they're not just respectably fast -- they're _good._ I can talk faster than they rap; it doesn't make me a good rapper. They play with flows, with tones, with words, rather than just spitting out a bunch of triplets or sixteenths and calling it a day. I mean, there's a quintuplet worked into the pansori section of rap in this song, and it's so smooth I don't think you even noticed. They rap fast enough to check off that box but also leave themselves room to actually make the rapping _interesting,_ which gets impossible once you pass a certain speed on either end of the sps scale. SKZ are famous for having one of the best raplines in the entire industry, ever.
All the ambient sounds/effects (car horns, etc) are part of the original song. SKZ includes car horns, hawks screeching, tigers roaring, air raid sirens blaring, etc in their tracks all the time, so when you hear them in a SKZ video, they're pretty much guaranteed to be part of the actual song, put there by the members who produced it (especially the shirtless Australian). Fwiw, this particular song is a clapback because they get a sh1t-ton of hate for making "noise music" and not sounding like mainstream-approved kpop. The entire album this song is on is a clapback album, with the first four songs being blatant about it in lyrics, and the intro song being a straight-up diss track.
In regards to the singing: yeah, the buildup and then the vocal calm-down is common in kpop; it just is (because it's kpop, which means basically every group has rappers AND vocals who need their moment). But when SKZ uses it, it's for a legit reason. More than once, I've seen other reactors have the exact same feeling: "I like most of it, but that break the vocals cause in the buildup doesn't fly for me." And then they listen a few more times, maybe to a few more songs, and it starts to make sense. SKZ does have songs _without_ that vocal break. But the ones they use it in are often the table-flipping songs, where the break ends up making the buildups more effective, whereas if it were just 3-4 minutes of nonstop full speed ahead, it'd get boring and numbing. But yeah, it can take a few listens to start feeling it the way it's meant to be felt.
Huh since when does SKZ not have official positions?? They always have had them, and they revised them a couple of years after debut. (E.g Seungmin became main vocal, Hyunjin become main dancer along with Lee Know)
@@crimsontranquility they dont have official positions anymore. it was removed from the JYP website i think weeks or a month before God's Menu was released. sooo ever since God's Menu era, they dont have official positions anymore.
@@crimsontranquilityThey haven't for a while. The terms obviously still frequently get used, even by SKZ, but _officially_ they don't exist. The positions were changed into listing of roles sometime after W left, and then even the roles were removed. We all know who mostly does what, of course, but in terms of _official_ listing of position, they're gone.
K-pop is a music style that I feel like I should get to know at least a little bit, but I haven't figured out where to start. This one sounded really cool, and I enjoyed your reaction to it as well! Maybe I'll just kick back and let you do the hard work, so I can get my introduction to the genre through your reaction videos :D
Oh Stray Kids is definitely a good one to start with. They are one of few self-producing groups and they take a lot of pride in that. ☝️
Ski-Hi ft 3racha (the producer unit of stray kids), it's a really experimental sound, but the raps are in another level 🔥
They have a lot more liberty than most K-pop band because they write and produce their own songs. They are a very rap- oriented k-pop band. They are never afraid to explore their artistry. As a rapper, you might like the "swagging" of Easy. One of my favorite songs. But it's hard to choose a fav songs. They never miss the mark. Thanks for the reaction.
Damn I didn't expect this! But I'm super happy you reacted to this and Stray Kids is a super fire group! 😁
If you’re interested to hear more from them, their most popular song is God’s menu :) great hype workout song with top notch rap
StrayKids are definitely built differently!! There is no better way I can put it in🔥 they are just SO COOL AND COMPLETE in every way, be it production, beats, rapping, singing, dancing, lyrical artistry, storytelling, concepts.... + Visuals and humility. Crazy right? I never thought I'd follow a group of artists this way at this age but since ever I got to know them, I was changed lol I still cannot fathom the amount of talent these guys have. They are genius and it's crazy to me!! You will definitely never regret going down this rabbit hole whether you keep following them or stop your journey & call it a crazy experience ✨ they are the typa artist who make you go "ah StrayKids, yeh wow" when you get reminded of them✨
I love the singing with the rap.
Yeahhhh 🔥
I also recommend Maze of Memories of Stray Kids is a song in which all the members rap you will also like a lot Here I leave the link ua-cam.com/video/Mi60tuxDtBI/v-deo.html

Thank you for checking out Stray Kids and for sharing your in-depth analysis at the end! It was interesting to hear thoughts from a fresh perspective, someone who's never heard/seen their work before
They're simply the best 😁
They are phenomenal! I subscribed for Pentatonix, thrilled you react to Stray Kids too 😁
🙏🖤
Great Reaction! Thx for being open minded and enjoying, appreciating #STRAYKIDS Hard Work! 👍🏼
Edit: in this reaction, you mentioned you’ve previously reacted to BTS ~ I just went back to the earliest video here and scrolled til I got back to Thunderous… err~ did not see any (Any) #BTS reactions from you prior. Mmmm~ ok, will scroll to more recent reactions from you, of my guys~ thank you.
Lmao you were so overwhelmed 🤣
Haha indeed I was
Great review and appreciation of Skz. 🙌🏼
Must watch/review District 9 & Tortoise and the hare. 👍🏼
I can't believe I haven't been subscribed to your channel yet
I recommend God's Menu by Stray Kids I'm sure you'll like :)
YES! Stray Kids! This group is top notch! Please more! ❤️🙏😇
self produced group with the fastest 4th generation rapper. they created their own sound and have incredibly diverse discography
Thank you for reacting to stray kids! Please react to "Easy" because the rap part there are so fire
Stray Kids are amazing they are having a new comeback on March 18, it's going to be the best comeback ever!
I love listening to your detail explanations ❤ Thank you. YEZZ...ofc they have lot of money to do all those crazy things.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoy my content 🙏🖤
@@SeanStaxxMusic wish u watch GOD's Menu for next reaction....can't wait to hear ur explanations abt the rapp and the song 😍
One of the reasons Stray Kids has so much money to go into this type of video production is because they don’t spend money on lyricists or hire more than one composer or arranger for each song because they write and compose their own music, and then arrange about 1/3 of their music themselves. They are self producing and self created, which allows them to take these risks in their sound that other groups may not be able to do. They are considered to be Noisy or make noise music, and did they take that personally and named their last comeback NoEasy/Noisy.
I discovered SKZ last summer with their Noeasy album - super talented and unique group. God's Menu, Backdoor, Easy, Double Knot, Domino... TOO MANY SONGS to recommend. They have a ton of bangers and cross a lot of different music genres not just pop. 'STAY' is the name of their fandom and we like to say Stray Kids never disappoint, meaning they don't have a bad song. They're also about to drop a new mini album on March 18th. You should check out their music teasers for ODDINARY. Thanks for discovering Stray Kids and reacting to their MV.
Love your reaction! It is very genuine and informative! Stray Kids have lots of rap heavy songs and I would love to see your opinion and analysis of them! They do have a sound that is unique to them and that’s why I love it! I would recommend you to check out God’s Menu, Back Door, and Easy.
Even new bands have excellent videos. Korean standards are higher. Most videos have sub if you can't use the closed caption. This videos also referenced the Korean Goblin mythology called the Dokkaebi.
I think the main reason why they have they have their ‘own sound’ is because they make their own sound. 3RACHA (members Bang Chan, Changbin and Han) are their main producers who are credited to most of their discography from composition to lyrics to arrangement.
Since I am more into rock and metal I am not that into kpop, but Stray kids' music got me and I love them🥰 some songs to check out: God's menu, Back Door, Mirroh, Side effects, victory song, district 9, Hellevator (probably my favorite), top (Japanese version) and many more that I can't think of rn😁
Great reaction!
🙏
Nice words!! Aprecciatte the comments! Welcome to Stray Kids :D Hope you stay :P
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it 🙏 I’ll stick around
You definitely need to check out these and you might need a fire extinguisher just in case. And the thing with Stray Kids, you can never expect what comes next bcs they LOVE dramatic beat changes that’s why it’s a whole ass experience with them.
1. God’s Menu
2. Double Knot
4. District 9 (it’s their debut song, rapline is straight up insane since day 1)
5. Domino (unveil track & lyric video, they hv no MV but i promise the beat’s mindblowing)
6. Maze of Memories (they all rap as in rap rap in here)
7. I Got It - by Han (his rap flows are immaculate)
Changbin and Han are the top two fastest rappers in their generation of Kpop (or so I read) and Changbin (the first rapper) can go way faster. Interestingly enough, Seungmin, one of their vocalists, can also rap fast as hell. All of these boys can rap, all can sing, all can dance, all are visuals. Changbin actually has a nice singing voice, though he mostly raps. Han too. They're the darlings of JYP Entertainment, one of the top 3 labels in Korea, so yeah, they're big. :D Also, just for kicks, these boys write, compose, and produce most of their own music. And I believe they have a lot of say with the choreo too.
I just saw all ur skz reaction and i hope you do more! I like all of them! Bless U
New subs! Please react more of Stray kids. ❤️ React to their song God's menu, District9, backdoor, easy,double knot.
Thank you! Gods menu coming soon
first time finding your channel and I LOVE how thoughtfully you dissected everything here! Stray Kids specialize in epic bangers like this. (there's a reason why so many metalheads and rap fans fall in love with them hehe) 😎🤘
the creativity, energy and unique sound of Stray Kids music is exactly what pulled me into them too...and their lyrics have a lot of substance as well, with so much clever wordplay and heartfelt meaning. they make all their own music, so authenticity and self-expression are really important to them. I have SO much respect for them as artists. ❤ really hope you'll check out more from them! Stray Kids have some of the best rappers in the kpop industry, so I love watching rappers fall down the rabbit hole lol.
stray kids is a rap based heavy group and you should definitely check out their music! I'd suggest god's menu, district 9, tortoise and the hare and more. you won't be disappointed
Fave songs:. Easy, Side Effects, All In, Any, Chronosaurus
