Stray Kids将于12月13日发行 SKZHOP HIPTAPE《合 (HOP)》以及主打歌《Walkin On Water》。
Stray Kids自2022年的迷你专辑《ODDINARY》开始，到《MAXIDENT》《★★★★★ (5-STAR)》《樂 - STAR》《ATE》，成功连续五次打入美国公告牌 Billboard 200 榜单第一名，作为“全球顶级艺人”正占据着重要地位。他们凭借独具创意的概念和音乐俘获了全球粉丝的心，此次凭借全新尝试的专辑 SKZHOP HIPTAPE延续强劲的发展势头。
SKZHOP HIPTAPE 是将Stray Kids的缩写“SKZ”和HIP-HOP合成后命名的，它就像一种尚未被正式定义的新流派一样，是收录了属于“Stray Kids自己的新流派（new genre）”歌曲的专辑。SKZHOP HIPTAPE的首个作品名称是《合 (HOP)》，取自Stray Kids八位成员相聚形成的默契之意，以及HIP-HOP这一音乐流派英文名中的“HOP”，蕴含着双重含义。
在 SKZHOP HIPTAPE《合 (HOP)》中，收录了主打曲《Walkin On Water》、《Bounce Back》《U (Feat. TABLO)》《Walkin On Water (HIP Ver.)》等新歌，并且还把在世界巡回演出中展示过的8人8色的个人舞台歌曲作为Bonus曲目收录其中，这些歌曲包括《Railway (Bang Chan)》《Unfair (Felix)》《HALLUCINATION (I.N)》《Youth (Lee Know)》《So Good (Hyunjin)》《ULTRA (Changbin)》《Hold my hand (HAN)》以及《As we are (Seungmin)》。
主打歌《Walkin On Water》是一首将 Stray Kids对舞台的自信心，比作在水上行走并与汹涌水流嬉戏玩耍模样的歌曲。运用了Old School元素的编曲以及能让人联想到水花飞溅样子的巧妙音效，成为了收听亮点。歌曲拥有像“水往四面八方飞溅，你想要跟上我们的动作却气喘吁吁、东倒西歪，你是不是把这事想得太简单了？”这样充满气魄的歌词，融入了组合特有的独特能量的这首 Stray Kids牌嘻哈歌曲，预计将会再一次强烈地俘获全球粉丝的心。
Stray Kids在2024年穿梭于世界各地的舞台，展现出了极具爆发力的存在感。他们登上了意大利米兰 “i-Days”、英国伦敦 “British Summer Time Hyde Park”、美国芝加哥 “Lollapalooza Chicago”等海外超大型音乐节，还成为 “2024 People's Choice Awards”和“2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards”等海外知名音乐颁奖典礼的获奖者。另外，在过去的10月，作为KPOP组合，他们成为史上第二个登上 “American Music Awards”进行表演的组合，接着在 12月即将举办的 “2024 Billboard Music Awards”中，他们入围了Top Duo/Group、Top K-Pop Album、Top Global K-Pop Artist等类别奖项的提名。尤其在Top Duo/Group 这一类别中，他们与 Blink-182、Coldplay、Fuerza Regida、Linkin Park一同成为获奖候选人，且是KPOP艺人中唯一入围的，进一步展现了组合的地位。
在首尔KSPO DOME举办的4场演出门票全部售罄，以此华丽开启的新的世界巡回演唱会 “Stray Kids World Tour
此外，最近他们还演唱了以游戏《英雄联盟》宇宙为原作的奈飞动画系列《双城之战》第二季的原声带《Come Play》，以及电影《死侍与金刚狼》原声带专辑《Deadpool & Wolverine Original Motion Picture Soundtrack》中的歌曲《SLASH》等，拓宽了活动范围。《死侍与金刚狼》原声带专辑还入围了将于明年2月2日在美国洛杉矶举办的第67届格莱美奖“Best Compilation Soundtrack For Visual Media”类别的提名。
11月13日发行的日本正规二辑《GIANT》在公信榜（Oricon）的专辑周榜以及综合周专辑榜（11月11日至11月 17日期间）上，分别以33万4553分、34万1285分的成绩占据了榜首位置。在Billboard Japan 11月20日的热门专辑、专辑销量榜、艺人百强榜，以及当地最大的唱片店Tower Records的所有门店综合专辑周排行榜（11月11日至11月17日期间）上也登上榜首，再次有力地印证了其强劲的人气。
Stray Kids今年的首张回归作品，也就是前作《ATE》以及主打歌《Chk Chk Boom》，登上Billboard 200榜首，印证了其全球人气。《ATE》以CIRCLE CHART专辑销量统计为准，累计销量突破了300万张，且在美国国内的单曲与专辑销量超过了50万，从美国唱片业协会那里获得了总计七个金唱片认证。此外，截至美国当地时间 9月30日，它是2024年在美国创下最高销量的KPOP专辑，在全球范围内来看，它也是继Taylor Swift的《The Tortured Poets Department》、Travis Scott的《Days Before Rodeo》、Billie Eilish的《HIT ME HARD AND SOFT》之后，位列第四名。
《Chk Chk Boom》在被视作流行音乐市场大众性的重要指标之一的Billboard Hot 100上位列第49名，刷新了Stray Kids自身的最高排名纪录。Stray Kids凭借《樂-STAR》的主打歌《락 (樂)》成为首位进入该榜单的韩国第四代男团，之后又凭借英语单曲《Lose My Breath（Feat. Charlie Puth）》以及《Chk Chk Boom》，累计三次进入相关榜单，更增添了非凡意义。在美国、欧洲、日本、中国等世界各地的专辑及音源榜单上夺得第一名之外，《Chk Chk Boom》的MV在YouTube上的播放量超过了1亿次，也成功斩获了“KPOP第四代男团中拥有1亿次以上播放量MV数量最多”的头衔。
仿佛是在印证其爆发性的全球人气一般，Stray Kids创下了KPOP艺人中首位在2024年美国国内专辑累计销量突破100万张的全新纪录。乘胜追击，他们推出了充满新鲜感的精良之作 SKZHOP HIPTAPE《合 (HOP)》和主打歌《Walkin On Water》，华丽地为这一年画上句号。

将 Stray Kids对舞台的那种自信比喻成在水面上行走，并且像在湍急的水流中嬉戏玩耍的样子。编曲运用了Old School元素，能让人联想到水花飞溅模样的巧妙音效是歌曲的亮点所在，这是一首能让人感受到Stray Kids所独有的独特能量的、Stray Kids牌嘻哈歌曲。
