Stray Kids’ Felix has once again proven his irresistible charm by unveiling a teaser for their upcoming album ‘合 (HOP)’. This teaser, which has been creating a buzz among fans, displays Felix’s distinctive artistic flair, leaving a lasting impression.
With their new album SKZHOP HIPTAPE ‘合 (HOP)’ and its title track ‘Walkin On Water’ set to release on December 13, Stray Kids has been gradually revealing teaser content on their official SNS channels. Following individual teasers from I.N on the 25th and Seungmin on the 26th, Felix’s ‘Stray Kids “合 (HOP)” UNVEIL : TRACK “Unfair (Felix)”’ was released on the 27th, heightening the excitement.
The teaser combines surreal atmospheres with artistic direction, delivering an art film-like vibe. Scenes of Felix alone in a dimly lit space or walking through a dense forest evoke a sense of solitude, while his depiction of floating underwater adds to the visual allure. Inspired by the tale of ‘Beauty and the Beast’, Felix’s nuanced expressions further enhance the immersive experience.
The album SKZHOP HIPTAPE, derived from the group’s abbreviation ‘SKZ’ blended with ‘HIP-HOP’, introduces a new genre unique to Stray Kids. The title ‘合 (HOP)’ symbolizes the unity of the eight members and a play on the word ‘HOP’ from hip-hop, offering a multi-layered meaning.
In addition to the title track ‘Walkin On Water’, the album includes ‘Bounce Back’, ‘U (Feat. TABLO)’, ‘Walkin On Water (HIP Ver.)’, and solo performances from their world tour ‘Stray Kids World Tour ’. These include ‘Railway (Bang Chan)’, ‘Unfair (Felix)’, ‘HALLUCINATION (I.N)’, ‘Youth (Lee Know)’, ‘So Good (Hyunjin)’, ‘ULTRA (Changbin)’, ‘Hold my hand (Han)’, and ‘그렇게, 천천히, 우리 (Seungmin)’. The members, known for engaging with global fans through their self-composed songs, have all contributed to this album, showcasing their musical individuality.
Stray Kids continue to shine on international stages, having been nominated for various prestigious music awards this year.
