Reviews[]
| “ | A portmanteau of “odd” and “ordinary,” Oddinary finds Stray Kids embracing their uniqueness to show that being odd is completely normal. It's the kind of nonconformist spirit fans have learned to expect from the octet, who kicked off their momentous year with the release of Oddinary, the first of their two EPs to top the Billboard 200. Their success hinges on their sincerity, expressed through potent lyricism and dexterous production. On Oddinary, producer trio 3RACHA nurture their craft with self-indulgent dubstep bangers (“FREEZE”), sweeping rock anthems (“Lonely St.”), and moody trap flows (“Venom”), all while doubling down on their beguiling braggadocio (“Charmer”). Yet, the album's biggest swing is also its most prophetic; “Muddy Water” allows rappers Changbin, Han, Hyunjin, and Felix to flex over a boom-bap beat, asserting themselves as the new generation eager to rinse away the status quo. | ” |
