HOP (合 hap) is the first SKZHOP HIPTAPE by South Korean boy group Stray Kids. It was released on December 13, 2024 with "Walkin On Water" serving as the title track.

Background[]

HOP was announced with a teaser video on November 14.[1]

A pop-up store was also held to commemorate the album from December 14 to 22.

Composition[]

The name SKZHOP HIPTAPE combines the group's abbreviation, "SKZ," with "HIP-HOP," and the album introduces a "new genre" unique to Stray Kids. Its first installment, "合 (HOP)," symbolizes the unity of all eight members while also referencing the English word "HOP" from the hip-hop genre.

The album includes the title track "Walkin On Water", as well as "Bounce Back," "U (feat. TABLO)," and "Walkin On Water (HIP ver.)". Bonus tracks feature solo performances from their world tour, showcasing the diverse talents of each member: "Railway" (Bang Chan), "Unfair" (Felix), "HALLUCINATION" (I.N), "Youth" (Lee Know), "So Good" (Hyunjin), "ULTRA" (Changbin), "Hold my hand" (HAN), and "As we are" (Seungmin).

The title track "Walkin On Water" conveys the group's confidence, likening their dominance on stage to walking on water and navigating turbulent waves effortlessly. Featuring old-school elements, clever water-inspired sound effects, and assertive lyrics like "You underestimated us, and now you're out of breath trying to keep up," the track exudes Stray Kids' signature energy.

As 2024 comes to a close, Stray Kids are set to cap off an extraordinary year with the release of SKZHOP HIPTAPE "合 (HOP)" and the title track "Walkin On Water," promising yet another unique and captivating experience for their global fans.
