This special album, marketed as Stray Kids' "SKZHOP HIPTAPE" record, is a unique blend of their signature K-pop sound and a new genre that fans are eager to explore. The mixtape features a diverse tracklist, including the title track "Walkin On Water," the energetic "Bounce Back," and the collaborative effort "U" featuring Canadian rapper TABLO. Each member of Stray Kids also contributes their own unique style with solo tracks like "Railway" by Bang Chan, "Unfair" by Felix, and "ULTRA" by Changbin, among others. The album's title, "HOP," is a clever fusion of the word "Hop" from the genre of hip-hop and the Korean character "合" (pronounced 'hep'), which means to combine or join, suggesting harmony and unity. This mixtape is a testament to Stray Kids' versatility and innovation, offering fans a fresh and exciting listening experience. The album will be available on streaming platforms globally, allowing fans worldwide to enjoy the new sounds from Stray Kids.
