If you haven't seen the Kingdom performance of Love Poem, i highly recommend it if you want to hear more Seungmin. It's with him, and a member each from Ateez and BtoB and its so beautiful. As for harmonies, I've learned that Kpop doesn't usually have a lot of harmonies b/c they are usually dancing and use the time when they aren't singing to breath, lol. Here is the link to Love Poem: ruclips.net/video/5Rl67uU_oJs/видео.html
In general the featured rappers are Binnie, Han, Hyunjin, and Felix. In general the singers are Seungmin, IN, Han, Lee Know, and Chan. They usually have certain roles that you can pick up on, for instance Chan usually sings in the chorus and does ad-libs. Slump is my favorite First Take although way too short for my liking, half of the song is falsettos.
Technically, all eight both rap and sing. That said, in overall order of frequency, it's Han and Changbin, then Hyunjin and Felix, then Lee Know and Chan, then Seungmin and I.N. And Felix's raps are generally of a slower, more "killing point" nature rather than a faster, longer style, so Hyunjin is actually the member right behind Han and Changbin in terms of who handles extended and/or faster raps. With the exception of (mostly older) groups who don't do much dancing -- and SKZ is known for their hardcore dancing -- you're not going to find too much in terms of harmonies in kpop. They spend other members' lines catching their own breath in preparation for their next bit. However, Chan often does layer in harmonies (frequently of his own voice), and though I'm blanking on which songs rn, there are plenty that do include 3+ voices in harmony. But it tends to be built into the backing track -- which, as a First Take, this performance doesn't have the luxury of. The actual album track contains a significant amount of harmony, both two- and three-part, mostly in the prechorus, chorus, and bridge.
Yeah, when Felix raps, it's slower because he doesn't really know Korean 100% yet, since he's actually Australian, like Chan. However, Chan's been in Korea for over 10 years now and Felix has only been in Korean for like 1-2 years I believe. So he has more difficulty rapping fast in Korean, thus why he doesn't tend to do so that often and when he does rap, most of the time it's in English. He's done some raps in Korean but they are much slower than his raps in English. I love how Chan always helps Felix out though, like if Felix has to say something in Korean or read something in Korean, Chan always is his partner and helps him figure out what to do. Sometimes Felix looks at something in Korean and is like ??? you can see the expression on his face and Chan goes and tells him what to do or what it means. Chan's such a nice guy XDD
@@kiramakishima7836 Felix moved to Korea in early 2017. His Korean was still very bad during their pre-debut show since they started to film it in July 2017, but he never stopped improving since and after five years in Korea he can speak fluently, even if he's not bilingual yet.
"Voices" "Chronosourous" "Mirror" "Secret Secret" "Levanter" "Silent Cry" "Blueprint" "I Am You" Just a few that I think are up your alley. Stray Kids B-Sides are some of their absolute best songs. I apologize if there is one or two in there you have already done. My focus is kinda sorta all over the place today. No particular set order either. Just randomly listed as they jumped to mind, lol.. Also, they all have an MV or performance video available. (Personally, I'll take a performance video over an MV any day.)
Felix always gives a Bowie vibe to me and I'm LIVING for it! Felix is my everything , but that being said Chan's ass is bitable LMAO! In redlights the white suit *drooling* and in The view in my reaction I actually said that his ass needs its own fan page LOL
@@TopherReacts not a fanpage, but "Cakeracha" is gaining traction on Tiktok, lol. Members: Chan, Changbin, Han and Felix (thanks to his infamous Tiktok).
Hyunjin is one of their main rappers, even tho skz doesn't really have positions anymore, he raps in pretty much every song expect songs that have come out recently.
Seungmin has been a lot more insecure about his vocals since he got braces because he says it muffles his voice but he has his braces on in this performance and he hit all the notes so clearly so I was a bit surprised when he expressed how worried he was about that
Totally agree with you about the harmonies! Chan does a lot of background vocals for their songs and he harmonizes really well with seungmin, but I can't think of any songs with more than 2 of them harmonizing. Anyways! Thank you for your reaction! I really look forward to watching more (:
Yay! I’m so glad you reacted to this one and have plans for the other 2 First Takes. I knew you’d like it more than the Neverending story. Since you like Seungmin’s voice so much, you will love his OST that he did towards the end of the year called, Here Always. It charted better than some of their group songs, it was that good. :) check it out when you have a chance. Thanks again for such a great reaction. I always look forward to them. 💕 You always make me smile. 😁
This song really cemented itself as my favorite SKZ release of 2021 in the 12th hour of the year lol. I'm so glad they did a 1st take of this, made me love it even more. I swear, everyone gets confused when they find out Hyunjin is a rapper lol. Also, I love the amount of love you show to Seungmin, he's so underrated, the group is so rap heavy that the vocals tend to go unnoticed.
The first thing I noticed when I watched this was Bang Chan’s pants. lol I swear it seems like Seungmin doesn’t even try when he sings. It’s like the words just flow right out of him!💞💞
As everyone told you in these comments, they all rap and sing. Hyunjin is a very good rapper. It might take you a while to go over their discography, they have over 100 songs to their credit, but they are all great and worth your time.
All of them actually sing/rap - but like many said they do have roles that they do the most often. I’d def recommend their other two first takes! Mixtape OH and SLUMP Also believe it or not - Seungmin is actually naturally a Baritone!
You gotta react to THE FIRST TAKE Slump, so many beautiful head voices and OMG Bang Chan's high notes are INSANE. Seungmin's high vocals in that song actually sound almost the same as Bang Chan's. The voices are just so good in THE FIRST TAKE Slump...
Chan does also rap but he's mainly the vocalist in the group, like he didn't rap in their last full album Noeasy at all. Also about harmonies, Chan is a big fan of them and he can harmonize on the spot because he probably has perfect pitch. You'll hear him harmonize in the background of their songs a lot.

Hyunjin is a rapper. He's been a rapper since debut/predebut. He only just started singing a lot more recently

omg same i can listen to seungmin’s voice all day, and the fact he worked hard to expand his range from baritone to tenor 🥺🤍
seungmin flips to his head voice effortlessly, main vocal things 🙌🏽
Seungmin has been a lot more insecure about his vocals since he got braces because he says it muffles his voice but he has his braces on in this performance and he hit all the notes so clearly so I was a bit surprised when he expressed how worried he was about that
4:07 same reaction every time i hear seungmin sing 🥺🤍

Seungmin is, in fact, a baritone :)

My favorite thing is how half way through the song they can not stop moving.🤣🤣🤣
Their energy is infectious 😍😍
Their fashion is always so good. I’m always impressed. These guys! Also so good. Felix is always beautiful 😍. Enjoyed your reaction.
If you haven't yet, they also have a mixtape OH one take. Another amazing song with a lot of meaning
The music video and Dance practice for this is really good

Live Vocal + Harmonies + Live Performance + Great Song = Secret Secret Live version ..

I would love to see you react to Redlights - BangChan &Hyunjin....and Gone Away - Han, IN & Seungmin
I’m pretty sure Red Lights was the first Stray Kids reaction I ever did, but I’ll gladly add Gone Away to my list 💛🖤
