FIRST TIME REACTING TO STRAY KIDS "MANIAC" & "THUNDEROUS"

[@genevievehiguera6162]

Haters would say that Stray Kids music is just "noise", they are "noisy," so Stray Kidz are like no we're not "noisy" we're "Thunderous"!. Right back at the haters. I am 74 love Stray Kids. Their music is so unique, so energetic, their choreography their rap the beats they produce are just addictive. That is why this 74 year old grandmother went to their concert in LA and had the time of my life.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@radanikolich2029]

75 and 62 we love SKZ

[@ozemerald]

I'm 55 and love them.

[@lovemillnine]

thanks for checking out stray kids !! they are an 8 member group (previously 9) from JYPE and they are self produced; they pretty much write, compose and produce most if not all their songs ! they are also ridiculously talented and versatile, earning them the title *4th gen leaders* they are about to have a comeback this october 7th ! so look out for that their title tracks tend to be more hype, intense and loud. but their bsides are really good as well !! some hype songs : God's Menu Double Knot District 9 (DEBUT) Miroh Side Effects Domino The Tortoise and The Hare Cheese Venom FREEZE some more vocal songs : Secret Secret Sorry, I Love You Never-ending story Ex Gone Away Waiting For Us Levanter Mixtape: OH more songs that i HIGHLY recommend : Red Lights Back Door Hellevator (PREDEBUT) Charmer Slump 19 Voices also while checking out older songs, please search up any ot8 version of it since they rerecorded their discography so they can be just the 8 members. (plus it shows how much their voices has improved)

[@lovemillnine]

here's a guide that is actually very helpful if you do decide on watching one : kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGOrq6Jvq7-ifqM

[@cherie2861]

idk, maybe someone has already written about it, but in Stray Kids, there are two aussie members. It is Bang Chan, whom you guessed right, and Felix. And their Australian accent IS VERY STRONG.

[@rightright2810]

wow han is my bias too wait until you hear han reaching high notes along with his fast rapping.also he is one of the main producers of whole stray kids discography.other two main producers are bangchan and changbin.99.9% songs that you will listen from them are all produced by these 3

[@melonapel49]

HAN is my ultimate bias actually. Like he is the number 1 ultimate bias of all my biases. When she said HAN almost being her bias, i can't wait her to find out about HAN talent (4th gen ace/ace of aces) and personality (loud, chaotic, weird, adorable, naturally comedian) and make her more in love with HAN like i did.

[@brittanyschettler355]

Han is my ult bias too! Shout out to all the Han biases out there!

[@agnesgy82]

Red hair guy: Hyunjin. Good coreographer/dancer… check 2 videos: - Hyunjin montley crew - Artist of the month - Hyunjin - play with fire 🙂

[@destinyy444]

Yessss I’m so happy you like stray kids!! And yea their production in their mvs is insane, that’s JYP entertainment for ya. I would say every big company has their own style of production. JYP’s (the company stray kids is under) style is very modern almost cartoonish like. If you check out other artists under jyp like twice, itzy, and even got7, you’ll see that’s how their production is. However stray kids takes things to the next level lmao. Also don’t know if you already know this but stray kids produces and writes all of their music. Literally all of it. They have a sub unit called 3racha which consists of bangchan, Han, and changbin and they are the ones who make their music. That is very rare for a kpop group. The only other group I know that is fully self produced is seventeen. But yea stray kids is very very unique and they definitely bring a lot to the table. They have a lot of creative freedom which is really good. Even the way the were formed was different from other groups. Basically jyp let bangchan (the leader) choose his members for the group rather than jyp doing it himself, this is also extremely uncommon and crazy to think abt. It just goes to show how they’ve been so close since the beginning. Anyways sorry for the long comment I just can’t wait to see more reactions from stray kids. Let me tell you after becoming a fan of exo, stray kids,and bts, my standards for music are so high now. The production quality of these groups is insane. I already saw a comment saying this but in the future once your less busy I think you should definitely consider reacting/listening to seventeen and exo. They both are amazing groups with no skips. Also congrats on making your merch !!

[@jennifern1277]

My fav thing about Stray Kids is that their productions (musical, choreo, video) are SOOO complex. I watch/listen over and over and notice different elements, different layers every time. I have such an appreciation for the obvious attention to every minute detail. I got to see them in Seattle recently; it was epic!

[@bp0719twenty]

Yaaaas! Stray Kids is really a unique group. They have their signature sound which makes them stand out. Im so happy that you like them. Looking forward to more Stray Kids reactions.

[@qgAdelaide]

You will get fluster watching their unit song Red light (only Chan and Hyunjin) an awesome B side track. The production and the beat drop, so good.

[@wickedcherub]

I think you would like their ballads a lot, Lex!

[@Maarialuizaac]

Happy that your are liking them

[@marm2034]

Listen to Han sing - 'I'll Be Your Man' in their Kingdom performance - and he will DEF be your bias :) I may or may not know from personal experience...

[@GKFF9872]

The mark of a good and catchy song is when you start singing along by the second chorus, even more so when it’s a different language.

[@yaskzoo]

Love the reaction to SKZ!! They're my favorite Kpop group. I think you'll really love their ballads and more vocal heavy songs! I love that you mentioned Han! He's my bias and he's actually considered as an "all rounder" by the rest of the industry. His raps are crazy but he can also pull off some insane vocals! He's also an incredible songwriter. He wrote "Secret Secret" which is actually the song that turned me into a SKZ fan. The lyrics are beautiful and I highly recommend that you listen to it someday! It shows a totally different side to Stray Kids which I think you would really love!

[@zilch_3054]

Thanks for reacting to Stray Kids! Looking forward to watch more Stray Kids reactions.

[@Tirpse87]

I really got into Stray Kids about 3 months ago. Before that I liked a couple of songs but suddenly I had them on repeat every day. They are such a fun group and they feel so different to me. Very excited to see more reactions to them.

[@allycahill]

Lexi - been watching your videos since you started and I feel like I'm on this journey with you. I'm about a year ahead of you and started my obsession with BTS but discovered Stray Kids about 6 months ago - Han is my bias as well. My latest obsession is Seventeen. Don't know if you have checked them out yet but if you decide to I would start with Killing Voices Seventeen. In it they sing a small snippet of about 10 songs and they are addictive. Their personalities are also up there with BTS - they are so much fun to watch.

[@LexListens]

Seventeen is on my list!!! Thanks for being on this journey with me🖤🖤🖤

[@shamimakhter7253]

Oh wow han is my bias as well ☺ me too my latest obession is Seventeen found them in 2021 and regrets not to Stan them earlier ,in girl group New Jeans

[@BansheePurple]

I love Stray kids so much! they are one of my favorite groups. People say their music is really noisy but I honestly love it. Like they have of course a lot of different songs and styles but they also have like a signature sound and honestly, they are just amazing doing what they do. And SAME, I their MVs are visually so cool 💕 They also have really fun and nice personalities.

[@susancosnick3852]

For a totally different side to them, check out Secret Secret.

[@bear_m3118]

Btw stray kids are coming back October 7th, the trailer and mashup are already out if you wanna check them out

[@ashurasama]

Considering the amount of great music Stray Kids put out, imo the best way to dive in, is to listen to full albums. About half of their songs have a music video of some sort so full album listens are pretty easy to digest ^^

[@naruto6063]

U r really getting better at editing omg loving it!!💜 The next step is, adding the actual song in the bg, instead of the music coming out of ur speaker, then ur mic, and then our speaker haha | lots of love from India

[@kamola_m]

Lex, how about doing album review?) They will have comeback in October 7, so it might good to check their latest album Oddinary, since you've already heard their title track Maniac

[@traybone74]

Also, you will freak out when you here Stray Kids English songs. All their songs are awesome!

[@Faerieanna]

Ok, so....Stray Kids. As a new STAY coming from ARMY, Stray Kids is a whole different vibe. They are Hype, Chaotic, Soft, Adorable, SEXY, Intense. (BTS will always be my Ult, but Stray Kids live in my heart from my first listen to Miroh). If you want to experience *1000% fluster* , you need *NEED* to watch "Your Eyes" video. It's POV, and it will literally slay you with the k-drama tropes and is a good way to see the guys individually. They appear in that video in this order (1. Hyunjin 2. Bang Chan (Chris) 3. Seungmin 4. Felix 5. I.N. 6. Changbin 7. Han 8. Lee Know). Also, fun fact, Lee Know was a back up dancer for BTS before his debut with Stray Kids. They push boundaries with their videos, self produce most of their music, write their own lyrics, and are very involved with every aspect of their work. I adore them and want to keep them all safe from this crazy world

[@miljanaskali4618]

i've also been getting to know stray kids better lately!! i haven't listened to them a lot yet but two songs that i absolutely love are venom and charmer! definitely recommend those to you as well.

[@JforJosie]

Lex i absolutely love your reactions! one thing i will say is pay attention to the LYRICS! Stray Kids produce and write their own music with the unit 3racha (Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han). They talk about the realest of things, God's Menu is about their unique sound and how their music will in trigue anyone (i consider them to be genre benders), Maniac is about breaking down that fascade people have and just being your geniune self, and Thunderous went back to kind of the theme of God's Menu except they are embracing their "Noise"! Their ballads focus on heavy things like mental health ( which is one of the reasons i absolutely love them). They seem to be the only goup that does. Can't wait to see more of your reactions to them!

[@kiki05dc]

you HAVE to react to red lights! i swear you're going to turn red after watching and listening to that song because it was HOT 🥵 and these two songs are the two that got me to the fandom. welcome to the fandom alexa!

[@starmyatiny5031]

They produce their own music

[@hawraahemadeh9944]

Thank you so much for this reaction 🖤 Song recommendations :- - Silent Cry - Slump - Secret Secret - The tortoise and the hare - N/S ( Street Ver.) - Questions ( Street Ver.) - Boxer ( Street Ver.) - Charmer - Call - Muddy water Songs with MV :- - Cheese - Circus - Domino - Freeze - Miroh - Red lights - Scars - District 9 ( debut song ) - Levanter - Hellevator - Venom - double knot - Christmas evel - I am you Some of them have English versions .. But my fav out of these are ( Lonely st. & Slump) This is an introduction vid if u want kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaSZi4R8fJh_lbs Have a great day 🖤✨🌿..

[@luckykpopfan7930]

Han is my bias! And Niki from enhypen is also my bias and jimin from bts is my biggest bias wrecker and soobin is my bias in txt and i dont stan blackpink

[@i_kpop_fan]

Let me give you the full StrayKids recommendation list in order: Predebut: Hellavator Debut: District 9 Side Effects My Pace Miroh Double Knot Levanter (God’s Menu fits here) Blueprint TA Easy Back Door Any (Thunderous fits here) Domino Cheese Red Lights (oh my God warning) Christmas Evel Winter Falls 24 to 25 (Maniac Fits here) Venom Freeze Lonely St. Circus They are about to have a new comeback with MAXIDENT. I also recommend their 3 performances on The First Take for 3 of their tracks: Slump, 애, and Scars. You’ll also see many songs or videos labeled “Mixtape” or “SKZ Player”. The Mixtape songs kind of get thrown in to mixtape-esque albums they release that don’t have a formal concept like most of the albums. SKZ Player is a place on their KZbin where they release solo songs or unit songs that they haven’t put on an album. We hold out hope for an SKZ Player album. Also, what’s funny is a few members have a bit of an Aussie accent when speaking in English due to being around Chan and Felix.

[@saraderai2165]

Always enjoy your genuine reactions

[@ehtNanatea]

I'd love to see a Seventeen reaction ♥♥♥♥♥ There is this video of Seventeen Killing voice where they sing snippets of a bunch of their songs from each year and it's just legendary! Their MVs are amazing too the newest ones are: Hot/ Rock with you/ Home Run/ Left and Right

[@LUMI_MBB_STAY]

No one does it like Stray Kids. They are a completely self produced / 100% song writing group which is so rare to find in Kpop. All the beats / production / lyrics... it's all them and they have been doing that since the VERY beginning, even with their pre debut song Hellevator. (Hellevator) which is their very first song / MV they ever did as a group. Then their official debut was District 9 (one of my favorites). They used to be a 9 member group so their older stuff will have 9 members but now they are an 8 member group. But I highly recommend District 9 and Hellevator. Plus Victory Song.... this song goes SOOOOOO hard!!! Plus Felix at the beginning omfg I think it's the lowest he's gone on a song and it's AMAZING!! Also Felix has this deep voice but off stage he is literally the biggest ball of sunshine there is. He is sunshine and happiness and warmth all wrapped up in 1 smile. He is seriously the most adorable human to ever exist! And he likes to bake! The other Aussie is Bang Chan. He's the leader of the group and the main one behind the production. Him, Han, and Changbin (the one that rapped in the beginning of Thunderous) make up a sub unit called 3racha. They are the main production / song writing team. The other members to participate as well but they are the main ones that make every song you hear. Bang Chan is almost solely responsible for all the beats as well.

[@polyanagula]

I am so glad you are enjoying your SKZ journey! I love how SKZ like experimenting with music, but manage to stay very recognizable by their sound. Since they have a comeback soon, I recommend to listen to their previous album "oddinary", you have already heard the title track "maniac", so there are 6 more songs to go (3 of them have MVs - Venom, Freeze and Lonely St.).

[@serenity-13]

whenever you want to react to a guide I would highly suggest the 2022 guide by 'TeaNoSuga Reacts', in my opinion it is the best one. I can't wait to continue this Stray Kids journey with you just like I did for your BTS journey!!

[@k.p1157]

lol you're taking all my biases.. from bts, txt, enhypen and possibly stray kids. we have the same biases 😂

[@LexListens]

We have good taste😂🤪

[@chimoshishifu407]

Stays always joke that Stray Kids are a group of Aussies + the lone Brit Peter. The one with orange hair in Thunderous is leader Bang Chan aka Christopher & yes, he's an Aussie. Hyunjin (red hair in Manic) also sounds Aussie most times, because Felix tutors him in English. Han sounds British tho.

[@kamola_m]

So excited to see how you would like other songs from SKZ, especially ballads. Also definitely check out their live performances, they are also insane

[@multi-stanforever2761]

Thank you to reacting to stray kids 💗 stay forever

[@carolvanessa6054]

Yay, I'm glad you now like Stray Kids! For a different side of them, "Winter Falls" might be of your liking. Also, they're having a comeback next month..! PS: Idk if you have a long list of reactions to do but if I could reccomend another group to check out it'd be ATEEZ.

[@susi7300]

Thanks for your reaction to skz ❤️❤️❤️ Omg,i like han too and i recommend venom, cheese or domino (unveil track) coz I love han's rap there 💕💕

[@susancosnick3852]

I think SKZ are the most talented group to debut since BTS.

[@angelasuttles]

So looking forward to this journey with you! Stray Kids are on a whole other level. Enjoy! ❤️love & 🙏light always, 😇Angela

[@trackhoodie1741]

You hit it right on the spot in terms of their sound being so identifiable! That is the power of 3racha for you! As you requested, here are some recommendations in terms of the "softer" side of SKZ: Secret Secret, Sorry I love you, Blueprint, The view, Mixtape: OH (live on first take), Scars (live on first take). Other hard-hitting songs are Domino (sadly no official full-length MV), Backdoor, Double Knot, Venom, Victory song. I would put more recommendations for their other songs to showcase their versatility and range, but this should do for now. Their discography is HUGE!

[@traybone74]

I'm do here for this! I am one of the ones who told you stray kids in the beginning. I love kpop so much now, I'm so down the rabbit hole now. Even the stuff that used to make me cringe. I was only here for BTS for so long that I knew some of the groups but wouldn't listen. Treasure and SF9 and MCND are all in my rotation, TXT and Enhypen for sure and don't sleep on Monsta X and Wonho. Also, Hyuna and Dawn. I was around but not in it so I knew them but I can't get enough now. Any way there are 100's of groups and so many good ones I wish I had started sooner. I have a diverse Playlist and am always listening to new stuff. Oh! And before I forget, very, very good song.. BTBT by B.I. Flustered doesn't begin to cover it.

[@denisematiass]

Thanks for reacting to Stray Kids! They are very talented and their sound is addictive! It's a self-produced group, they write, compose and produce their own beats. Please react to VENOM and FREEZE.

[@CreateNColour]

Yay, welcome to Stayville! Age doesn't matter here, I'm over 40 and we have lots of over 60 Stays too. They have something for everybody. And I have yet to find a song I don't like. So much variety and lots of energy and powerful messages too between the fun clap backs to the haters like this one and Cheese. Looking forward to more!!🔥🔥🔥

[@esidhe]

You should also know Changbin, he practically introduced himself in Thunderous. 😄

[@Nikita-]

10:05 haha yes thats bangchan 12:51 They fans are called stays its so cute

[@BlackRose0415]

I love the australian accent. It's so cute and sometimes funny at the same time ❤ & I'm glad you finally checked those two songs out 👍 .. but there are a few more good ones, including the Street Version MVs like "Question" or "Boxer". Love those ❤

[@ericmwangi9130]

They are my favourite K-pop boy band

[@Ame25596]

Heya! It's been a while! :D I hope you've been well and that you've been enjoying summer! So glad to see you reacting to Stray Kids, I am such a big fan of theirs and I also only discovered them about half a year ago. As recommendations if you haven't seen these yet, I recommend Backdoor, Miroh, Red Lights, Vistory Song and All In. Stray Kids (SKZ) are insanely talented performers so I definitely recommend you check out some performances from them. If I may suggest some already: - Kingdom performance of Du Du Du (this is speficially tailored for you

[@missmc4547]

Stray Kids "Freeze" and "Easy" next please, thanks!

[@lovirchaskz]

giiiiiiiiirrrrl, u will LOVE Domino's choreo then, it's insane

[@lella1213]

Looking forward to your next SKZ reaction.

[@wickedcherub]

Hey Lex I appreciate that you're trying new things with your editing skills etc and that your audience are not here to actually watch the MV again (we can watch it on our own time) but I do personally find it distracting that the video of you is overlaid over the top of the MV. Esp because sometimes you're on top of the caption. I'd rather have a tiny MV in the corner than the big one that's covered. Also you moving from one corner to the other is distracting also. Your reactions are some of my very favourite!

[@bribuly1240]

Listen for CHANS back up vocals

[@Sainul44446]

piz react to itzy, twice, I've, mammamo,asepa, red velvet, txt

[@rarahaha1626]

Please react to SKZ's other songs, too! They're really awesome! If I were to recommend their unique and unique songs... Victory Song, Side Effects, Easy, Back Door , Cheese, DOMINO ,VENOM , FREEZE. And I'll write down their emotional songs below Neverending Story(kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZnXOXmVtd5qIsMk) , slump, Ex , secret secret, OH, Lonely St. And please watch Hyunjin's dance video.People who see this are so cool that they often forget to speak. Psycho:kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoqbeZeJfLeUidU "Play With Fire (Feat. Yacht Money):kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJOlnIadhs6mmMk 'Motley Crew' covered by Stray Kids HYUNJIN(현진) :kzbin.info/www/bejne/il7Em3uMqLKWgc0 Among their live performances, I would like to recommend the 2020 Mama Victory Song stage and the video of Shindu-du performed at Kingdom, but I am upset that the video has been deleted from KZbin for some reason. It was a really great stage with a huge number of views, but no one knows why it was erased.I hope the video will be uploaded soon.
