Stray Kids has additionally released concept photos for their new album, showing a strong presence. The new format album SKZHOP HIPTAPE 'HOP' and the title track 'Walkin On Water' will be released on December 13 at 2 PM (Eastern Time, 0 AM). Prior to this, JYP Entertainment posted individual teaser images highlighting a confident attitude at 11 PM on the 21st. In the photos, Stray Kids poses confidently in front of a red, blue, and black background, showcasing their photogenic side. The calligraphy '合' written on the floor and suits with traditional patterns catch the eye, stimulating curiosity about the new album's concept. SKZHOP HIPTAPE is a coined term combining the group's name abbreviation 'SKZ' and 'HIP HOP', hinting at a 'new genre unique to Stray Kids' without a formal definition. The first installment '合 (HOP)' carries a dual meaning of 'combination' and 'hip-hop', completed by the eight members. Once again, the group’s internal production team 3RACHA, consisting of Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han, leads the project, with all members credited, packing the album with their musical color. The new album includes the title track 'Walkin On Water', along with 'Bounce Back', 'U (Feat. TABLO)', 'Walkin On Water (HIP Ver.)', and solo stage songs from their world tour 'dominATE' as bonus tracks. Stray Kids has once again proven their powerful influence at major global music awards, winning at the '2024 People's Choice Awards' and '2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards' earlier this year. Recently, their song 'SLASH' featured in the movie 'Deadpool & Wolverine' was nominated for the 'Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media' at the 67th Grammy Awards, generating buzz. The prestigious '67th Grammy Awards' will be held on February 2 (local time) in Los Angeles.
