Kpop Quick Notes: Stray Kids – Chck Chck Boom

I find it hard to keep up with music and I was going to do an album review but I forgot, and here we are. However, I found the notes I had written so figured I could work it into a quick blog post.

So here are my quick thoughts and Stray Kids’ latest comeback.

  • I really love when Chan comes in. Is it just me or is it sexy?
  • I love the contrast of Hyunjin/Lee Know’s chorus and Felix/Chan’s chorus. Felix really owns it in the live performances his voice going deeper and more gravelly.
  • Changbin’s rap in the second verse eats! The rolling of the r’s and just the way he delivers the lines… chef kiss.
  • They have Ryan Reynolds AND Hugh Jackman! I had hoped that Ryan would put the money where the mouth is but Hugh Jackman too!! Wow. They, Stray Kids, won at life. Very successful fans. Also, great marketing on both sides. (side note: I watched the movie, the xmen nostalgia it brough up… man! Good (ish) times).
  • The song is actually quite short but I did not notice until I looked at the live performance. Usually short songs leave you wanting more or feeling unfulfilled but this song feels whole and full.
  • The dance is quite good, I like the creativity of it. They seem to dance the chorus sexy. Am I missing something, is the song’s meaning sexy?
  • I love the styling! They’re very rock star and no surprise Hyunjin drew me in but also Seungmin. I’m loving the super short hair on him.
  • I Like It – f*boy anthem. I’m sorry I love the lyrics, it’s just hilarious to me. F*boys need representation too …….. anyway sometimes I like songs in a perspective that I don’t think in. It’s interesting. It gives food for thought.
