So this isn’t even scratching the surface of how deep it goes with stray kids. I’d definitely check out Bangchan’s I hate to admit, Changbin’s Streetlight , and Han’s Alien for more solos. There are also songs like Mirror, My Pace, Levanter, Waiting for Us, Cover Me, Blind Spot, Grow Up… then also songs like #lovestay, Haven, You can stay, Gone Days, Spread my Wings, Hellevator, Insomnia, Social Path, etc etc.

Stray Kids does a LOT of wordplay, but you really need to understand the language fluently to realise just how much they play. Your questions about Deep End - yes, it's all Felix, and yes he has an amazing range. In fact, the final high falsetto of Taste is actually Felix but the person that did the lyric video attributed it to Hyunjin mistakenly.

No Hyunjin is not lead singer...that would be Seungmin...but all eight are singers. Taste has no mv but has a performance video that is definitely worth a watch. Chan and Hyunjin are referring to their obsession with their work and how they have a problem with perfectionism to their detriment. Yes that is all Felix in Deep End.

[@becauseisaac]

thanks for explaining! also… the range on Felix is CRAZY

[@Tripster621-vb8jz]

I personally think SKZ has the most profound discography of any K-Pop group. They were given creative control of their music when they were teenagers and many of their early songs dealt with the nostalgia and confusion of becoming adults, and the hardships and struggles of being idols. Even more current songs still talk about the less glamorous aspects of their fame that people don't see. Social Path from Chan's own experiences and Blind Spot are good examples of those. And then, there are also the songs like Thunderous and Cheese, responding to insults thrown at them. I saw a show where Changbin said that their early discography was about everything they were thinking about and feeling at the time, and it is clear to see through their lyrics. SKZ had to endure a lot after their debut. They created a new sound, the Mala Taste Genre and, like many other genres of music in the past, a lot of people resisted it and criticized it but, in spite of that, they also eventually rose to fame so, for both reasons, they have had to endure more unprecedented hatred during their carrier than any other group in the history of K-Pop. As a result, they have never shied away from tackling themes like depression, loneliness, insomnia, and alienation. Now, when you listen to references to being the first and the best in some of their newer songs, especially title tracks, it's a reminder to people that, regardless of whether any other groups imitate it, it's the style they created, perfected, and suffered for. I think they have earned the right to brag. medium.com/outro-words/cookin-up-a-new-sound-stray-kids-and-the-mala-taste-genre-a8e4e8427bcc

[@gladishernandez5102]

Do you want to see Stray Kids producing and brainstorming ideas for their music?? They have plenty of videos about that. 3Racha made Vlives where they make a song from scratch, it´s soooo good and funny at the same time. Plus I will highly recommend watching the episode of Kingdom: Legendary War (Mayfly rap unit) there were members from Stray Kids, Ateez, and BtoB making a song together, and the process is incredible!! Lastly, in the show Holw in Harmony, they divided themselves into 3 groups to produce a new song with 3 different concepts -sexy (Bang Chan & Hyunjin with Red LIgths), -Summer vibe (Felix, Lee Know, and Changbin with Surffin), and - Balad (Seugmin, Han, and I.N. with Gone Away). Together they decided on the concept, lyrics, melody, and even the concept for the video. All the episodes are fun and very interesting to watch!! By this time, all of the members are writing and producing their own songs but nothing compared to 3Racha, although they´re getting better and better, Taste was written by DanceRacha and Felix wrote Deep End himself!! Stray Kids is a creative and versatile group, I´m sure you will get inspired by their passion for music!! Good luck and greetings from Mexico!! Hope to see more of your reactions to Stray Kids!! 🤗

Haha you've dived in some of their sexy songs. They have many deep songs, you'll find some good lists here in the comments, would definitely do scars (first take), Cover me, han - alien, chanbin - streetlight. Hyunjin is actually part of the rap and dance line. But honestly all 8 can rap and sing. Seungmin is the main vocalist. It's all felix in the song, he stacked his own vocals, it's so fun

[@erinjordan9268]

Oh, I was trying to think which song scars was. When you said 1st take, I remembered. That sing was just WOW!

[@erinjordan9268]

So the CD I think you should listen to is MAXIDENT. That was the 1st CD of theirs I bought, and I didn't know how good it was until about a month ago. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE every song on the CD. That CD has 3 Racha, Taste, and Can't Stop, which is by Seung-min and IN. It also has CHILL, which is my 2nd favorite song.

[@EmmieUniverse]

@@erinjordan9268 scars is my fav song! I love that song.

[@bestwifman]

Stray kids does something called album intros where they explain every song in their album and what they were inspired by, what the songs about, and part of how they produced it. I think you might really enjoy the behind the scenes knowledge, idk what ur favorite Skz album is but I’d look up the album intro for it

[@daryasolovyova9713]

Wow, thank you for this! Yep, the Red Lights and Taste drops are a chef's kiss. "Deep End" broke a lot of people, it's so strange, the problem is not only the range, Felix sounds different, like a different person, at least to me.. I'm not a musician at all. “Cover Me” is a song where everyone is just singing. It's definitely worth a listen. Also, this is Hyunjin's song (with Chan's help) - he wrote the lyrics, composed it, and was the director during the recording, well he was busy, so part of it was directed by Chan with Hyunjin's instructions lol.

[@becauseisaac]

Felix’s vocal sounding so different at different ranges really ads to the impact of the song. it’s almost as if his voice has different personalities.

[@MakeGoodTrouble]

It's more than just "Bang Chan's help" the official KOMCA credits list BOTH as lyricists, BOTH as composers (along with Nickko Young), and Chan as arranger (along with Nickko Young). I know Chan's super humble and likes to give all credit away, but he is officially listed in all roles.

[@GenderNotFound._.]

I honestly love how his voice has so much more warmth in a higher register. But yeah it is unusual to just completely change the colour of your voice. Amazing

[@andreakostenko]

you got to watch the performance for taste its so good and worth watching

[@yurei0624]

what I love about Deep End is Felix wanted it to have an ASMR feel so it’s such a treat to listen to it with good headphones and get the full feel of the song. Felix’s voice is like the only voice that gives me that spine tingling ASMR effect as well it’s so wild lol

[@prmtv]

More of what 3Racha does... well that would be the entire Stray Kids discography 😅 there are a few songs 3Racha doesnt have a hand in like Deep End... Felix wrote that one and helped produce it w someone else. Hyunjin and Bang Chan (1/3 of 3Racha) wrote and produced Red Lights Hyunjin, Felix and Lee Know wrote Taste together. Bang Chan helped them produce it. All of the members have helped produce or write songs at some point but yes 3RACHA are the main producers and lyricists of the group. They do have a lot of behind the scenes of them working in the studio, always fun to watch them work. Im honestly surprised they get any work done sometimes 😂

[@harriettholmes539]

Yes. That's Felix. Please react to Felix voice duality it's awesome.... GQ Magazine interviewed: Felix said he got his deep voice from his father. Felix said his father have a very low deep voice. Felix said when he was 13, he woke up one morning with a deep voice. Felix thought he was sick. He asked his mother was he sick, she said no you're going through puberty. There's a live dance "DANCERACHSA TASTE" Performance with Lee Know, Hyunjin and Felix.

[@Stayskz457]

I would also say that lonely street is very deep as well

[@jadefrog]

Hyunjin and Bang Chan co-wrote Red Lights, you can see some of the process in their mini-series Camp Howl in Harmony (following three sub-units from writing to recording to video production of three different songs. Gone Away from that series, by the two main vocalists and Han, who functions equally as a rapper or vocalist, is also pretty good). Hyunjin wrote Taste and Chan produced it. Felix wrote Deep End, it is one of the few Stray Kids releases not produced by 3Racha, each member wrote a solo to be included on the album Replay, and the non-3Racha all had one that used only outside producers. It helps to look at the color coded lyrics videos for their harder songs as well. They do a lot of wordplay, making puns and references across both English and Korean, and even non Korean speakers can pick some of those up by tracking the sounds from the Romanized Korean to the meanings, and then seeing the English sounds that follow.. When you start noticing those things, some of the lyrics take on a lot of depth. They also reference a lot of Korean legends, folktales, and sayings. You can track some of these in the better lyrics videos. When you start looking, the multiple meanings bring a lot of resonance across the length of a song. I'd also recommend Scars and Sorry I Love You (in the First Take series, the lyrics are in white on a light background, but still mostly readable, and it's a great performance), Winter Falls, Lonely Street. Venom shares some of the themes from Taste regarding obsession/addictive love, the idea that being trapped in the addiction is often a choice we make ourselves. Levanter was made when they were having a hard time, after one of the original members left suddenly. And Cover Me is great.

[@hortbeck]

Lots of fun clips on YT of Felix having a really low voice and an extremely high voice! Really entertaining watching the vocal range clips of Felix!

[@dmwilson3606]

These guys are insanely talented. I'm sure it was said but Red Lights was produced by Chan and Hyunjin, Taste is a Chan track with Hyunjin writing most and Lee Know and Felix contributing too. Deep End was written by Felix. There albums all have intro videos where the guys describe the songs and typically those videos show some behind the scenes. There is content called "Howl in Harmony" and they break into three groups and show a little bit of insight into them writing a song and producing the videos. One of the songs is Red Lights. You can see their personalities too.

[@marcalabrashers8653]

I dont know how "silent cry" wasnt recommended. Hyunjin has "long for you" "cover me" is another huge one. So many you haven't experinced

[@gaminggirl5914]

Little star by hyunjin so so underrated. It has deep meaning too. For his dog that expired he made this song.

[@friedahendy2349]

If you want to see some of their thought process they did a series of 5 short episodes called Howl in Harmony song camp it covers red lights and two other songs also they have a recording behind the scenes for Megaverse and cover me. There are so many more that cover some of their journey both music production and filming. Thank you love your reaction

[@sylvielebrun1733]

I keep rewatching the recording session of Megaverse/Cover Me. How detailed the producers can be is amazing, while being fun at the same time. Isaac, please watch this and then watch the mv of Megaverse and the color coded video of Cover Me (there is no mv) to hear what it sounds like when finished. The beat and rap in Megaverse is great and Cover Me is so beautiful it has become my favorite song.

[@DaddiesLittlePsycho]

ALL of Han Jisungs Solo tracks are very deep. I think 'Alien', 'Volcano', and even 'Misrrable' are three you should definitely look into. His solo tracks are known in the fandom as some of the most raw and exposed im terms of barring emotions within Stray Kids discography. He's, of course, one of their main rappers, but hes also a main producer and writer. He's even responsible for a massive amount of their most beautifully written lyrics AND killing lines. With his solo written songs going on to be some of the most popular, and often finding their way into OSTs or other members solo work. Specifically, Seungmin. Their main vocalsit. Han, in terms of his own solo work, prefers subjects that are tabboo in their industry, he willingly opens himself up to hate for being an "emotional man" in his efforts to show people that there's always two sides to every story. What to you is easy, normal, or even toxic... is someone else's difficult, unknown... even love.

[@erinjordan9268]

OMGOSH! HAN! His one line at the end of Superbowl and Item makes me weak for his voice. Also, Seung-min in Item made me fall in love with his voice! Now I listen for hus parts in every song. I wish he had an album.

[@erinjordan9268]

Also, Han does covers of others' songs. Like pop songs. Listen to those. I can't remember the one I saw of the top of my head.

[@geoffreydyck6367]

If you're interested in more of a rap/hip-hop focus from SKZ then I HIGHLY recommend 3Racha (yes there is a song called 3Racha), Muddy Water, and Freeze. If you want more of a ballad/vocal focus then Cover Me has got to be up there for consideration.

[@PRO-MIM]

Freeze! Yes! 🔥🔥🔥

[@hex__x0x]

Yeah man we're here for stray kids!! And yes they ARE a very dynamic group. The 7 years of training that bang chan (the leader) had to go through like non other, really paid off! That man is a production genius with the other 2 members of course (Changbin & Han). It would be great if you first react to one of their albums 5-Star or Rockstar and then react to their recording process. Those episodes are sooo good.

[@Tristana.Keauna]

Been patiently awaiting your return to SKZ and it did not disappoint! Lee Know, Hyunjin and Felix are actually part of "DanceRacha", but truly any of them can do anything. Sing, dance, rap, write and many are now composing as well. I suggest you look at "Cover Me" that Hyunjin wrote and composed with Bang Chan. For 3RACHA, they have a lyric video for their song "3Racha" that is great. They predate SKZ actually, and you'll find many 3Racha tracks that sound familiar, because they've repurposed some of them into SKZ tracks.

If you are interested in their dancing performance, I recommend Hyunjin's Motley Crew and self-choreographed Play with Fire.

[@fenixflight574]

the story behind Redlights is how Chan cant stop writing and producing and making music for the fandom (stay) to show them how much they love us. Hyunjin is how he cant stop dancing and practicing for the same reason. and the line "moment when I close my eyes all I see is red lights" is refering to the Redlights of a recording studio. (At leas this is from my understanding correct me if im wrong!!! newbie stay here) Its also my favorite song ever now not just from them haha

[@cl3263]

Hyunjin is a main dancer, one of the main rappers, and yes of course he sings too, stray kids are all-rounders! ☺️ fun fact: both red lights and taste are written by Hyunjin, in my opinion, his writing style is really HIM, easy to recognize and i love it ! thank you for the reaction 🫶

[@MakeGoodTrouble]

Hyunjin and Bang Chan wrote Red Lights together, and Hyunjin, Lee Know and Felix wrote Taste. You can Google the credits for each song to see that all the members are listed as lyricists for each of their songs. I know there was some joking around about who wrote Red Lights bc of how "sexy" it was, and I also know that Chan is humble to a detriment, but he definitely is officially listed as a lyricist for their song.

[@pmhyunjin]

Hay un video en donde Hyunjin dice que él escribió Taste, y que lee know y felix ayudaron, por eso es que están acreditados, pero prácticamente la escribió toda Hyunjin, hasta dijo que la había hecho con Red Lihgts en mente. Y Red Lihgts la escribió Hyunjin, y Bangchan escribió las partes en inglés, por eso está acreditando también.

[@cl3263]

i remember that hyunjin wrote red lights, then bang chan “toned down” some of the lyrics because they where “too much” so added the english parts, and TASTE, hyunjin himself said that HE wrote taste (thinking about red lights), then lee know and felix helped with some of their parts, but stil a hyunjin song! everyone of the boys is extreamly talented obviously btw

[@justxheidiheidi2831]

Red Lights is one of my faves and I also think it's a great example of how a piece of art can change during a process. Hyunjin talks about how he wrote it as a metaphor with his own battle of pushing himself too hard, of working so hard to strive for the illusion of perfection. Hence the images of red lights as a warning and staying up all night. Then he worked together with Bang Chan and the sound of the song got this grittier feel, adding to this feeling of being caught up in a toxic pattern and /or relationship. Then in they worked with this music director who is a gay man and known for making these really cool videoes and movies with a lot of queer themes, and this director then took the themes of a toxic relationship and brought it up as the main theme visually in the video And yes, Felix's range is so wild to me. He doesn't just have a wide range vocally, high and low notes, but to me he's able to sing in different ways and with different flavours, making it sound like it's not from the same person :D

[@milovanraonic5214]

[@cl13913]

This

[@damselflyable]

With Stray Kids songs they pretty much ALL have depth and meaning, even songs which at first glance (or listen) might not seem like it. The first five songs you reacted to are a good example of this, you said they lacked depth so I'll explain the meanings of them for you. 1. S Class - the message here is that even if you're odd or peculiar you can still shine the brightest. Some of Hans rap lyrics: 'be the one to shine instead of chasing what's shiny, that's easier to show off, shine like a diamond K?' Like, do your own thing instead of trying to copy what everyone else is doing. 2. Miroh - Miro means maze in Korean, they added the H on the end to signify heaven or hell depending on the direction you take. So the song is about having confidence and determination and facing challenges head on. And breaking free of society's limitations to find your own path to success. 3. Maniac - is about being your true authentic self instead of putting on a fake facade in order to fit in. Let out your inner maniac. 4. Back Door - they're the ones in control of their music and you're invited to join the party using the passcode given. Alternatively, many believe it's also about sex (read the lyrics!). 5. God's Menu - the kitchen scene is them cooking up their music, they have something for everyone in their menu of songs. The construction scene signifies that they construct their own music but also references the haters calling their music noisy or 'construction music'. The race track is referencing the intense competition within the KPop industry as well as the fact that they are on their own track/path to success, running their own race. The ones in the lab coats are them being experimental with their musical concoctions.

Blind spot is my favorite song on the Rock Star album. There is a video from a concert of Changbin, Hyun-jin, Han, and Felix singing Waiting for Us instead of Bangchan, Leeknow, Seung-min, and IN. It is so beautiful. I did not know that Changbin and Han had that kind of range. I almost cried when I heard it the first time.

As someone said, you only scratched the surface of what skz is!!! Please, check these out -Hellevator -My pace -Phobia -Silent Cry

[@sieleni5206]

long for you by hyunjin also has very beautiful lyrics, and he wrote it himself. it's become one of my favorite songs because of how beautiful it is. stray kids has so many great songs with deep lyrics.

[@Staylor869]

More Stray kids content pleaseee

[@christoph8794]

Love your appreciation for these amazing guys! Hope you find your inspiration bro

[@NatyGamio]

If you are searching for a way to feel joy with music again, I honestly think Stray Kids is an amazing option! These guys love what they're doing and they are really great!

[@Lee-gb5jb]

you should totally check out "streetlight" by changbin for even more depth, and muddy water by Changbin, Hyunjin, HAN, Felix for variety. But like with any group there are a million other songs to recombed too, topline, heyday, circus, etc.

[@RissaVal]

I hope we get some more stray kids🙌🙌🙌 they have such a range of genres in their discography!

[@dezi987]

Welcome to the Stray Kidz hot Megaverse! 🫡

[@hortbeck]

I heard that Red Lights also refers to the red lights in the studio and their compulsion to always be in the studio and not being able to stay away - not sure if that's accurate, but it makes sense

[@kilane38]

They have a performance video of Taste. They are beautiful to watch as well as listen to.

[@Hunnybunny_plzz]

8:14 ok so ACTUALLY this falsetto here is Felix because in their live performance it was him singing this part sooooo it’s like now all the color coded lyrics are wrong 😂😭 bc some color coded lyrics they either put it as Lee know or hyunjin when it’s actually Felix and his song deep end proves how high he can get!! 9:40 yes it’s Felix! Lolol It sounds like 3 people singing like he is so amazing and his harmony with himself 😩

[@mireiaposias]

lee know, hyunjin, and felix (known as danceracha) wrote taste themselves and like u said 3racha produced the track. they are all in the same group so they all work together ans share input/ideas so its not as much 3racha just giving them a song its more so danceracha worked to come up with lyrics/ a performance themselves

[@MakeGoodTrouble]

Hyunjin, Lee Know, Felix and Bang Chan composed Taste, and Chan was the arranger (along with VERSACHOI).

[@mireiaposias]

@@MakeGoodTrouble yes thats what i meant i was very tired when i wrote this 😅

[@apurvaanand5196]

Hyunjin actually once said that Taste was inspired by Red Lights; he wanted Taste to be like a "Blue Lights" vibe. And I honestly see it. The performance videos are a great visual; they did cut a verse, though. THIRD EYE gives me Taste vibes. old school jazz/hiphop you would like MUDDY WATER COVER ME, emotional calm song you will like the production of ITEM you might like CHILL Hardcore rock vibes, CHEESE Taste vibes, SILENT CRY, interesting production soft sad, WINTER FALLS

[@Lavender_moonlight14]

Topline,thunderous,and megaverse are really cool songs and I think you would love them as well❤️❤️❤️

[@StayLicious_094]

Grow up! This song made me cry a river it's just saaaaauuurrr gooood!!

[@SeonghwaffleJem]

You should check out Levanter and Leave. They’re among the deeper Stray Kids songs, brilliantly well-written and beautiful performed.

[@christinehouchins7966]

Felix does have crazy range! He is so under rated! Glad you gave him a deeper listen and some love! More SKZ please!!!

[@0velhao]

They release the "Intro" of every album, there they explain the songs and the production process. it's worth watching 🙏🏽✨

[@ofneverneverland]

if you want to learn more about the production process of 'red lights', definitely watch the 'howl in harmony' episodes! it's basically 5 stray kids episodes on youtube where they work in units and show the whole process from idea creation to the recordings of the music videos, with 'red lights' being one of them!

[@PamelaBuscemi]

I never listened to KPop until the Stray Kids. I love the fact they are self produced and write their music. Each member is so talented and as a group they are amazing.

[@celinejennings6502]

I hate to admit it, is such a beautiful song, give it a listen!

[@AshleyKristyen]

Isaac, I love their music but I do love their production stuff! If you look at their Racha logs you can see how they laid some of the tracks and the thought process is amazing. A rarity in Kpop music for sure!

[@courtneyhanlon4459]

LOVE STAY , COVER ME , YOUTIFUL are all great examples too

[@harleyshanks]

I love how you picked two of the sexiest songs they have haha. I would recommend Secret Secret, Sorry I Love You, Scars, Cover Me, and Gone Away if you want to keep diving into their deep end!

[@Snow-h5k]

Love your reactions so much

[@mixedgems]

Stray Kids have a way of often wrapping up deep and relatable lyrics in energetic beats. It can catch you off guard because you feel upbeat while realising the lyrics are about vulnerability. A good recent example is Blind Spot but only lyric MV. This selection were all sub-unit or solo songs and will sound a little different.

[@naiaram.6532]

Listen to “Sorry I love you” live and “Leave me”. They sing so well live, you have to check it out
