Stray Kids "HOP" Mixtape Album Review | ReacttotheK Weekly Podcast #55
Added 2025-01-26 22:27:21 +0000 UTCIn this podcast episode, we squabble like siblings as our polar opposite opinions on each song are revealed. Starting off with some of the most siren-filled tracks Stray Kids have ever released, to showcasing Stray Kids’ unique solo songs, this mixtape made us feel a wide range of emotions. Our differing opinions just go to show that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure! But the one thing that all our hosts can agree on? The biggest treasure on this album is Seungmin✨
P.S. MISAMO "Masterpiece" won the Jan poll, but the recording for it didn't line up with Saffion's (RTTK's head Once) schedule! So we decided to record SKZ "HOP" review since it got 2nd place on the poll :) MISAMO Masterpiece will be released in Feb!

Towards the end of this episode (or, it might've been after "Hallucination", Django did bring up the fact he felt all the songs ended before he felt like they were complete, and that Seungmin's solo was the only one that felt like it had a perfect length. For me personally, I didn't mind the length of WoW.

2025-01-28 16:35:43 +0000 UTCIt's funny hearing them say the regular WoW is too busy, I'm so 4th gen "noise" music pilled I actually thought there wasn't /enough/ going on so I'm with Umu liking the Hip version way more haha I also noticed nobody mentioned how short WoW is, and I'm curious if that's because everyone thought the short length was fine or if short songs are just the norm now that it's not even notable

2025-01-27 19:49:12 +0000 UTCI love these two reactors because there is a solid 50/50 chance I will agree with them. I loved how I agreed with Marcus for Railway, but then he gushed about Unfair and I'm like "damn this is my least favorite song on the album" haha. I love Felix but I agree with Django that the lyrics were rough for the song.
