Stray Kids is also a Kpop group! Lol their Japanese songs usually dont have captions, but their korean MVs do. They are performing at the VMAs this year and nominated for best Kpop!😊
Welcome to the Stray Kids journey. A lot of others have given you background and song ideas. I wanted to give a little explanation of this song, especially in relation to your questions about how old they are and how that factors into the lyrics. Stray Kids range from 22 to almost 26. The oldest, Bang Chan (a Korean Australian) is the leader. He wrote this song a while ago speaking to his 7 year trainee journey which was a little atypical. He left Australia at 13 to pursue his dreams and it was a lonely journey as other idols debuted before him. The song starts with "Gave up, my youth for my future, I I just want to rise up stronger"....then in the 1st chorus Bang Chan sings "You only get to live one life, I know I'm ready, Take that chance no matter what thеy tell me, I can not explain this feeling, Yеah, this path was meant to be my dream" followed by Lisa's "Look back, the ashes prove my Passion always burns eternally, No regrets, I love this feeling Down on this road, call it the social path". His long traineeship led the company to allow him to choose the members of the group and they successfully completed a survival show to stay together (though a 9th member left in late 2019). Anyway, if you are looking for a particular sound to react to, just ask the fandom (Stays) because they have such a wide range of musical styles you can find something for any mood; upbeat, edgy, rap heavy, pop, RNB, ballads, melodies, high energy and sometimes all mixed together, as you experienced in S-Class. Some of their popular higher energy/edgier older songs going way back are Victory Song, Double Knot, Miroh, Mirror, Maze of Memories, Easy, God's Menu, Thunderous, Charmer, Freeze, Venom. The newest album 5 Star from which S Class is the title track, include a wide variety of styles. Songs with MVs are Topline, Get Lit, Superbowl (Japanese track - original in English with no MV). Songs without MVs are Hall of Fame and Item. If you like rap, their rap unit (3RACHA) have bunch like Hey Day, Zone, 3RACHA and more. There are at least 200 songs to choose from and they write about many topics including their musical journey, mental health, life experiences and more.
Stray Kids are mainly Korean with two Australians in the band and are the top KPop band in the USA in 2023 and have had 3 consecutive no 1’s on the Billboard 200 so l would say are quite successful selling out concerts worldwide. They are self produced and have a lot of control over what they release from their songs which are around 150 all up to choreography to impute in their Music Videos. Their range is from ballads, hip hop, rap, rock, electronic pop, grunge etc etc so you should find a genre that you should like if you have the interest as they don’t conform to the usual KPop stereotype. The also have a sub unit within the group called 3racha who are the rap unit composed of Changbin considered Korea’s fastest rapper, Han the Ace and BangChan the leader of Stray Kids. Their songs to check out are Heyday, Scissor, Zone, and a few with alternating members Muddy Waters also Han’s dynamic Close.
Hi, I don't speak Eng, but I wanted to just try to explain something about their music style. SKZ has always been hip hop, EDM with elements of R&B and rock, but they almost since their beginnings were also adding a little more 'noisy' sounds. And as time went by this was more and more frequent, also risking making unconventional changes to their songs, something that their fans we love, and many producers admire. So that style was consolidated. But in fact it's something for which they always received bad criticism from a lot of kpopers, accustomed to a simpler style of pop. But they are very proud of their style and they even released an album called 'Noeasy', like, readed as 'Noisy', in which they basically called out the haters. They made it clear in several interviews that they intend to maintain their style but innovate at the same time. This song is very special because the lyrics are based on Chan's (the leader's) experiences. And they mixed their style well with Lisa's. I think they both had very good chemistry .
Wow for not speaking English, your english was incredible. Your grammar, your word choice, and your lengthy sentences work incredibly well together and I'm seriously impressed as a native English speaker. Keep up the good work and keep learning; you'll only get better in English from here.
@@KacoReacts, they have become absolutely huge in Japan and are at the point their concert tickets there are harder to get than most Japanese artist. So they do a several Japanese songs. There are stick guildline before Japan lets an artist release music straight to their industry and one of those things in no subtitles. That's why SKZ has two RUclips channels. Their main channel for everything Kpop and a smaller channel for everything released in Japan. A few other key things: they have done some anime themes songs too: TOP, Slump,Scars. They have a huge international following and recently headlined this year's Friday night show for Lollapalooza Paris, France. Next week they are scheduled to perform at the MTV VMAs. BTS and Black Pink are the only other Kpop groups to have ever performed at the VMAs.
Stray Kids are a South Korean group. But they have albums made for Japan, and when they do that, they have a separate label & RUclips channel for that. So Japanese songs will be on Stray Kids Japan, and their normal stuff will be on either Stray Kids, or JYPEntertainment. I have noticed that their Japanese songs don't have subtitles, but their Korean songs mostly do. There are a few that don't, but those are far between. Chan has talked about how he wrote the lyrics about his years as a trainee. Since he was a trainee for 7 years, he has seen a lot of mental suffering watching all his friends either debut without him, or get dropped from the programs. LiSA is a Japanese singer who does a LOT of anime openings & stuff. If you have watched Sword Art Online, or Demon Slayer, you have heard her. She has been putting out awesome music for around 11 years. Chan has always looked up to her & the Kids were very excited to collaborate with her. Let's see. Things I noticed in the MV. -The bag people seem to be representative of both faceless people who are both worshiping & hating at the same time, or inner doubts & thoughts that come when they are alone. -I.N is the first to stand against the tide of people & grasp the light. -Everyone stays isolated till Chan gets taken by the hands. They all had separate things happening. Being isolated, being stared at, being forced to constantly run, being chained in one place, etc. Then Chan is taken & they are suddenly moving. -LiSA seems to be a unified voice leading them in a direction. She has the lines " the ashes to prove my passion burning endlessly" (Or close to it....I am horrible at remembering exact lyrics) -When they are unified & moving against the crowds, the ones who are most able to withstand pressure without flinching are in the lead. (Lee Know, and Changbin are the most obvious at the front making a path for the others) -When they reach the wall Chan had been trapped against, they tear it open. There is only 7 of them when this happens....They are going through to reach Chan. (Chan has said in multiple instances that the other members have saved him. If it wasn't for them, he doesn't even think he would be on this planet) -When they are 8 is the only time you see them smile. -There are shadowy hands that are trying to touch Changbin in the beginning, and just as he wakes up you see clawed hands reflected in his eyes/the moon. -Felix's wing actually kinda seems slightly separate from him. Almost as if he has a guardian angel protecting him. It lifts & reveals him a little before starting to cover him again. -In the final dance scene, the only ones with no red in their outfit are Chan, Changbin, and Felix. I listened to someone explain that the colours kinda mean something. LiSA has a strong red & black theme. She seems to represent courage & determination. The others have red in their outfits because they gained those from outside sources. (Like the other members, or helpful people) The three who have no red are ones who already had those and didn't get them from an outside source. Changbin & Felix are the least effected during the MV. Felix already had an inner fire, and Changbin refused the shadowy hands. Chan was taken, but he didn't stop trying to escape. There are many flashes of Chan staring ahead, or jerking awake & not just allowing himself to be swallowed. You see him float above the people who took him, until the others break through to him.
Fun fact. Bang Chan and Felix both love IMAGINE DRAGONS. 😂 What do you like to listen to? My favourite is EASY. It's a TRAP beat. If you like a bit of summer Rock, try TIME OUT. Stays know everything, just ask us our let us know what you like and we'll help you out
Stray Kids is from South Korea but they do Japanese releases and Social Path is one of them 👊👊👊 2 members are Australian (Leader Bang Chan and Deep Voice Felix)
I'm going to explain a bit since you are a bit confused, and I understand that, that's literally how I was introduced to kpop. Kpop doesn't mean that the song needs to be in korean nor that the members should be koreans. 99% of groups have songs in japanese and they can also have songs in english, but that still is kpop. And now more and more group have foreigners in their groups, just in stray kids 2 of the members australian (korean australian but still australian). You can have many nationalities : korean (obviously), japanese, chinese, thai, taiwanese, american, canadian, australian, and even like german (I mean the person I'm thinking of left his group but he is german) ! What makes a kpop group kpop is generally if they have a song in korean and where they promote. For example, XG is not kpop because all of their songs are in english but they promote in korea, they only check 1 of the 2 points. I don't know if that help with things, but it was just to say that stray kids are kpop and social path is kpop even if it's in japanese/english. Also the members of stray kids are born in 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2000, 2000, 2000 and 2001
