RAP FAN react to STRAY KIDS | "Gods Menu" (Reaction)

[@bingbong6323]

don't worry since stray kids are self produced and us fans really love them for their music, we want people to pay attention to the music and their lyrics so you don't really HAVE to pay attention to the dancing, how good they are at dancing is honestly a bonus for us fans haha

[@HawaiianMusicReacts]

Ive got a lot of comments asking to turn on closed captions so i can see lyrics. So i will definitely do that!

[@OkieDoak19]

That first step in a doosie. You literally can't go wrong with Stray Kids--hype songs, full rap songs, ballads, OSTs...the list goes on

[@uknowtherest134]

the most impressive thing is for me that the members themselves write compose and produce all of their songs. literally self produced from every beat to every lyric.. thanks for checking out their music and hope to see more coming!!

[@ethangarrison4265]

There's tons of artists that do that, nothing new but SK are great regardless.

[@StacyMccollough]

​@ethangarrison4265 A lot of bands/groups write their own songs, but these guys, in their teens and very early 20s started producing their own music...as in they create the beats, write the lyrics, control the recording and do all the mixing of the recording to create each song...i haven't gears of many others artists that do all of this. If there are, id love to check them out as well honestly

[@ethangarrison4265]

@@StacyMccollough in that case, you should totally check out Ren, complete solo artist, writes all of his lyrics, makes all of his beats, plays piano, guitar and many other instruments, sings and raps, all while dealing with Lyme disease and a multitude of other health issues and consistently puts out music, all with no label backing or anything. He recently broke out with his song "Hi Ren" last year. He's also seriously good at genre bending. As a start I'd recommend "Hi Ren", "The Tale of Jenny and Screech" and "Money Game Part 3" his music videos are very cinematic in nature and almost makes you feel like you're watching a movie Edit: Quite a few of his songs are also very vulnerable and will make you cry but it's so worth it! He's one of the most inspiring current artists I know of and imo, a musical genius.

There is a well known saying in the STAY community: “you dont find Stray Kids, Stray Kids finds you when you need them the most” and this certainly held true for me. Thank you for showing our boys some love and taking the time to get to know them a little bit. I would suggest checking out the 2024 complete guide to stray kids if you decide to really get to know these incredible talented and sweet artists. You really can’t go wrong with any of their discography, but some of my favorites are: New Releases: Chk chk boom Mountains Stray Kids Older: Hellevator (predebut) District 9 (debut) Miroh Double knot Lalalala Megaverse Topline Venom Maniac Side Effects Thunderous Freeze And the list goes on and on and on 😂 Looking forward to more reactions, and welcome back to YT!

[@JAMoore-zz3ki]

Leader Bang Chan was a trainee at JYP for several years. While waiting to debut, he formed a rap group called 3Racha with two other trainees, Changbin and Han. They wrote / produced their own music. JYP gave Bang Chan the highly unusual opportunity to help develop his own idol group (which they did through a reality show, but Bang Chan had WAY more say in picking the members than pretty much any other idol trainee in the industry), and when Stray Kids was formed 3Racha was absorbed into that group. 3Racha still performs on occasion. Several of their songs / videos are posted on KZbin. They write / produce (and often compose/arrange) the vast majority of the music for Stray Kids. Over the years the other members have also gotten involved in writing and production. ---------------------------------- Stray Kids debuted in 2018. In their early videos, you'll see 9 people performing, but Woojin left in Oct 2019. Stray Kids have been an 8-member group ever since. ---------------------------------- DanceRacha - main dance unit (Hyunjin, Felix (the deep-voiced guy), and Lee Know). But all 8 members dance very well. ---------------------------------- VocalRacha - main vocal unit (Seungmin and I.N). But again, all 8 members are great and they switch around on lead vocals, depending on the song. ---------------------------------- Main rappers - Changbin, Han, Hyunjin and Felix. Unlike many K-pop groups, all 8 members can and have rapped, depending on the song. ---------------------------------- Languages: Bang Chan (the leader) and Felix (deep-voiced guy) are both Korean-Australian. English is their first language. The other 6 members speak English with varying degrees of fluency. All 8 members are fluent in Korean and can also sing / rap in Japanese. They often mix Korean/English and Japanese/English in their songs. ---------------------------------- Not all of their music is super hard all the time. SKZ also write / sing beautiful ballads and have also written a few songs for K-drama, anime and video game soundtracks. They also collab with / produce for other idol groups and solo artists from KOR, JAP, CHIN, THAI and the U.S. ---------------------------------- The fandom is called STAY. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3Racha (Stray Kids' writing and production unit): Bang Chan - leader of Stray Kids, leader of 3Racha, main songwriter, main producer, composer, arranger, vocalist, dancer, rapper on some songs Changbin - main songwriter, main producer, composer, main rapper, vocalist, dancer Han - main songwriter, main producer, composer, main rapper, vocalist, dancer ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The other members: Lee Know - main dancer, choreographer for some songs, vocalist, songwriter, rapper on some songs Hyunjin - main dancer, main rapper, songwriter, producer, vocalist (also an artist & some of his paintings have been used as art for their songs) Felix - main dancer, main rapper, songwriter, large vocal range when singing - bass, baritone and high falsetto Seungmin - main vocalist, songwriter, dancer, rapper on some songs I.N - main vocalist, songwriter, dancer, rapper on some songs

[@dafirey1]

It's always a pleasure to witness a reaction from individuals to Stray Kids. By the way, they have closed captions for the lyrics. Their lyrics are extremely complex and simple in one. You are only on the cusp of their music. These guys produce their own music (something almost unheard of in Kpop) by primarily the unit trio 3racha (pronounced like the hot sauce) with other members becoming more involved as the years have gone by. They have a Huge fandom located all around the world (Stay) I'm a long time one of those lucky people.

Top Line and Megaverse by Stray kids if you like rap,

[@rachelk7148]

You literally can’t go wrong with their songs, such versatility and so much quality. They love their double entendres (sometimes triple and quadruple). If you’d like, I recommend you watching the MVs and then you can watch a color coded lyric video so you can get a grasp of the lyrics and you’ll see who is singing what and get to know the members more!! As a rap fan, you have to check out Megaverse. But they have SO many great songs and fun MVs. Their MVs have deeper meanings as well, every time I watch them still I pick on new things I didn’t see before. Lalalala, case 143, easy, back door, venom, S-class, miroh, just a short list but they have SO many bangers they are really impressive. Have fun!!!

[@aspiringbeamoflight3185]

We are used to people stopping and restarting a lot for Stray Kids videos lol

[@G.Lollie]

Welcome to Stayville!! 2 members are from Australia Felix the deep voice guy was actually the only member born in Australia. He also didn't know much of the Korean language when he moved to Korea at the age of 17 years old. The other member from Australia is Bang Chang (or Chris) who moved there when he was very young. He is the oldest and the one who trained for 7 years before he debut with his other member that he hand picked before going on the reality tv series called Stray Kids. You are in for a wild ride. Check out the other recently released tracks off this album Mountains m/v and song Stray Kids by Stray Kids. LOL and the other songs a must check out are LaLalaLa m/v, Megaverse m/v, Gods Menu (older m/v but a banger) so much more.

[@DoReMiChar]

Really enjoying your K-pop reactions. It’s good to see others who appreciate the music so much, goosebumps and tears, these artists put in so much effort, they deserve the recognition. Stray Kids just broke the 10 year 1D record by being the first group in history to feature 5 consecutive no.1 entries on the US Billboard 200 chart! Their last 5 albums have debuted at number 1. 🎉 So you’ll see older groups like Blackpink and BTS broke many records back in the early 2000s and broke into the western mainstream media first, they’re 3rd Gen K-pop. But many groups I see people recommending to you are 3rd gen (like Stray Kids, Ateez, Itzy, (g)-idle, etc) and later. Basically younger groups, and many of them have huge international fan base already and quite a few have participated, even headlining, in huge music festivals worldwide.

[@HawaiianMusicReacts]

I want to check out Ateez and Itzy! Any recommendations for songs?

[@DoReMiChar]

@@HawaiianMusicReacts For Ateez, here are some that I enjoy: These guys are also amazing performers, they started out promoting as a sort of dance crew pre-debut. So talented! Their mv have storyline, with a teaser at the end of each mv for the next chapter, it’s way more evident than the stray kids lore. You’ll clearly see common characters and themes appearing throughout their discography especially if you go in order of release date.

@@HawaiianMusicReacts I’m not a big fan of Itzy personally, not my favourite genre, excellent performers though. I’d recommend some (g)idle instead 😁 Soyeon is such a good rapper!

My bag Oh My God Tomboy Lion Uh Oh Nxde Hwaa Wife Super Lady Allergy & Queencard (series) Hann I want that Then their KDA songs (KDA is a virtual K-pop group in the League of Legends game universe, and 2 members of idle are part of it along with some western artists) Soyeon’s raps in this group is what hooked me and how I discovered K-pop.

Their lyrics are super important to understandung the group. It's best to watch the mv with subs. I usually watch 1st reading lyrics, then 2nd watch for dance. Alot of their songs are about being themselves, not hiding who they are and making music that is different despite what others may say. They were considered a flop group in korea due to their sound being very different to traditonal korean idol music. They have come so far.

[@mariacelcia2]

As you are a rap fan i suggest easy, miroh, freeze, topline, all-in, chk chk boom, venom, maniac, my-pace, distric 9 (debut song). Hellavator has rap but lots of beautiful vocals to but what makes it really interesting is that it is pre-debut. Also the survial shows didn't create them technically. Bang chan (leader, wearing crossing chain on face and for rent on the back of one of his outfits) initially hand picked each member (originally 9 but 1 left for personal reasons, 2 got eliminated in show but were both brought back in the end) then they went into the show as a group already. He clearly picked well and ended the show and went on to debut with all his original choices.

[@shaylatorch]

STRAY KIDS are like The Hotel California, you can check in any time you want, but you can NEVER leave, lol

[@drewx2737]

Well there are good suggestions. They love to experiment, change styles, they like push and provoke sometimes, next time they write sweet song for STAY.. if some song is not for you, you can bet next one will be different. That is biggest pull for me - them being different. Be prepared they are not exactly what k-pop is about :) Hellevator was first predebute song, try that eventually, District 9 their debute song, it is different from their recent style but good as well and maybe some of 3racha songs, for example ZONE (M Countdown stage) so you know who stands behind all of it; other suggestions from me: LALALALA, Back Door, Freeze, Double Knot, Side effects, Victory song, Chronosaurus. Lets stop there before i name all of about 200 songs :)

My friend! I absolutely love discovering new fans, and new reactors to our Kids, but your reaction is one of the best first reactions that I've watched in a long minute! I AM HERE TO STAY xD NEW SUBSCRIBER HERE :D I love that you've read about them at the end because, in half of the video I'm starting to think about what I want to share with you about them. You said 3Racha absolutely right (It's like the saus...) They are the main writers, producers, and composers in Stray Kids, and they are on the top copywriters' list in Korea, Chan has 180+ songs, and Changbin and Han have 150+ songs each (They write\produce for other groups as well), but all of the members are involved in the creation of their music and dance choreos. You've picked one of their most known and loved songs ever, so that was a really great start. I highly recommend watching a good guide to them, I'll find you a good one if you want :D Happy to join this channel, and very glad that you feel better (Han has several solo songs about mental health, he makes it a point to share his own thoughts, and we really love and appreciate him for it. any song by him is almost always more touching), and WELCOME TO THE STAY FAMILY!!!

[@Angela-qw4sc]

Loved the reaction! Pause as much as you want, there is so much to appreciate. All eight members sing, rap, dance, write and produce. But they're broken into subgroups. They do almost all of their own writing and producing with 3Racha (Chan, Changbin and Han) doing the bulk. They have a lot of songs credited to them. Dance Racha is Lee Know, Hyunjin and Felix. Vocal Racha is Seungmin and IN. They have a very diverse discography and something to suit most every taste but their title tracks tend to be bangers like this song. Since they just headlined Lollapalooza in Chicago you should check out the live feed of that for fun. They also headlined IDays and BST in Hyde Park this year. They are amazing live. Some title track MVs would be Thunderous, Maniac, LaLaLaLa and Chk Chk Boom which is from their latest mini album comeback. They also have OSTs including Slash which is on the newest Deadpool Wolverine movie. There are also dance practice videos, award shows and from their earlier career the Kingdom Wars show. There is so much fun content.

[@donnasdiycorner]

Dude!! Make SURE that you Turn ON the Subtitles, so that you Know what the song is saying and what it's About!! Stray Kids have their own genre. It's called the "mixed taste" genre. Their signature style is that they mix so many different genres into one song, but their discography is also so vast that there is music for everyone's music taste because they also have songs which are of a single genre. You'll find ballads, you'll find boombap, you'll find hip hop, you'll find rnb, you'll find trap and hardcore EDM and so much more. It's crazy how much music they have! They have indeed been credited by the Korean media for creating their own genre called "mala taste". The term mala originates from malatang, a popular Chinese spicy, numbing hot soup, with different flavors (just like their music).

Stray Kids songs are very good! I would recommend you react to MOUNTAINS, CHK CHK BOOM, ITEM, TOPLINE, JJAM and more! I hope you like the songs!❤

[@ezzyvalentine4295]

I'm a hardcore fan of Stray Kids...I'm a proud Stay! You should listen to LALALALA and Chk Chk Boom!

[@lisar3944]

I am pretty old, but out of curiosity I checked this video out yesterday. And to be honest, I was stunned. The song is great! Their voices have so much individual personality! They are so pretty! I'm astonished at their dance skills as it's sooooo smooth yet really energetic. I just...like them! a lot! Way more than I could have imagined.

@@lisar3944 Thats exactly how I feel! I loved their style and their voices. They’re so unique and different

Welcome to the loveable chaos that is Stray Kids! They have so much good music! Fun fact Ryan Reynolds became a Stay (fandom name) when they remixed this song with Blackpinks DuDuDu for a performance called Gods DuDuDu in 2021-make sure to check that one out-and now they have a song on the Deadpool and Wolverine soundtrack too called Slash. And their new song ChkChk BOOM is one of their best off their newest album ATE. My personal favorite music video is Thunderous though Maniac is a close second. But I LOVE their dance practice or performance videos best because I’m a dance nerd and they are always clean and powerful in their dancing so it gives me a chance to see and hear them without focusing on the STUNNING transitions in the music videos. The dance practice of their song Easy is the one that I still go back to a lot. Domino and BEWARE too.

I've been following the rabbit hole for a little more than a year. I'm loving the trip❤❤😊

[@trollbabie3947]

Loved the video! Since you love rap i highly recommend you listen to Megaverse (i’m shocked no one has mentioned this one yet) You should also listen to Maniac, another big hit of theirs, as well as Chk Chk Boom their most recent single. Hope you continue on the Stray Kids Journey 😊

[@HawaiianMusicReacts]

@@trollbabie3947 hell yeah i added those to my list!

[@hollies3436]

Oh man… your next listens should be S Class, Maniac, Topline, Mountains, Chk Chk Boom, Super Bowl… so many!

[@ashdub-]

New favorite hobby is watching people fall down the Stray Kids rabbit hole, welcome to Stayville! Sub to watch the journey! Glad to see I already have a few videos to catch up on lol

[@ethangarrison4265]

Another great K-pop group to check out that have been blowing up lately is Ateez! Pretty incredible group of talented people

[@jeckyllandheyed]

"Lately.." LOL. They debuted 5 years ago and for at least the last 3 they've been well fed. I feel like around the "Guerrilla" time they went from rizing stars to outright stars.

[@ethangarrison4265]

@@jeckyllandheyed in terms of views and people listening recently is what I mean.

[@tatfitmomb4461]

Ah there ya are.. I knew I would find the comment from ATINY anywhere where SKZ is mentioned to piggyback Ateez off of them; I was hoping to be wrong but i never am lol

[@ethangarrison4265]

@@tatfitmomb4461 I don't even listen to K-Pop like that. They're just one of the groups that I know of that makes good music 🤷 I myself mainly listen to extreme metal and lyrical hip-hop

[@tatfitmomb4461]

@@ethangarrison4265 I came from metal and hip hop myself

[@EmmieUniverse]

Hahahah if you like this song, you'll like more stray kids. They're amazing, so please continue reacting to them! They make the beats themselves btw :D They're producers. Kpop is a whole journey and stray kids itself is a whole journey. Great people! Their latest songs with MV's are chk chk boom and Mountains, those came out about 2 weeks ago. Something similar to god's menu might be their latest song Jjam or S-class. Btw, the subtitles work ! If you wanna read what they say. Yesterday they headlined Lollapalooza and it was insane.

[@luckycaster2435]

We gotta bring stray kids out here to Hawaii brah

[@HellenitaSousa]

I discovered your channel now! I love it so much when I see someone react to K-pop for the first time! It's a world so vast and wonderful that once we entered it we wondered where we were living. There are so many good and talented groups to meet that I don't even know where to start with the recommendations!! But Ateez I think it's a good start. BTS I'm going to be very specific, watch MIC Drop's MV.

[@linhbui3530]

You can listen: Top Line, Megaverse, Muddy Water. Rap style

[@razvandumitru9505]

Freez Venom Megavers All in Doble knot District9( debut song)

[@angelalam5949]

i love watching people discover stray kids, mega talented self produced unique group creating only bangers. If you are a rap fan you need to check out 3racha: 3racha(yes the songs called 3racha), heyday, zone, matryoshka etc

[@jeannettemaldonado4628]
