What Do Your Favourite Musicians listen too? Stray Kids Bang Chan
In the world of K-pop, the role of the leader is often overlooked, but there’s no overlooking this leader. One of K-pop’s most influential and impactful leaders, Bangchan, for the JYPE group “Stray Kids”.
As part of Stray Kids’ production line, 3Racha, Chan has become known in the industry for his musical abilities and has over 200 songs registered with KOMCA. Throughout the years, Chan has shared his own taste in music through livestreams, “Chan’s Room”, vlogs, interviews and interactions with fans through an app called “Bubble”.
Chan creates and listens to all different genres of music; however, he is particularly fond of rap, hip hop and EDM. Below is a list of artists we could find that Chan listens to; however, everyone’s music taste is ever-changing, so some of these may be, or are subject to becoming, outdated.
