K-pop’s fearless femme force, STAYC, is back to command your playlists and power up your summer with the release of their Special Single Album I WANT IT—now streaming worldwide via High Up Entertainment and Kakao Entertainment.
With their signature “Teen Fresh” sound elevated to new heights, STAYC continues to evolve, blending bold charisma with an ever-expanding musical palette.
From the moment the opening beat drops on the title track “I WANT IT,” it’s clear that this release isn’t just about summer fun—it’s a declaration. Bursting with slick electronic beats, high-octane synths, and a chorus that’s as catchy as it is empowering, the track radiates playful confidence. The recurring lyric, “Good things we ok,” becomes more than just a hook — it’s a mantra of resilience, self-worth, and cool defiance in the face of uncertainty. It’s the kind of anthem that feels just as at home at a rooftop party as it does in a solo, mirror-dancing moment of self-love.
But STAYC doesn’t stop at just one sonic flavor. The album’s B-sides show off a depth and diversity that prove these girls are not here to be boxed in. “Honestly” delivers an urban pop groove that’s equal parts cheeky and chill. Built on a slick bass line and retro-inspired wood synths, it paints the familiar story of romantic frustration with a wink and a strut. It’s witty, it’s relatable, and it’s effortlessly cool.
On the other end of the emotional spectrum, “BOY” slows things down for a dreamy, synth-laced ballad that taps into the vulnerability of new emotions. The laid-back 808 beats and tender vocal layering give the song a nostalgic warmth — a reminder that even the coolest hearts sometimes skip a beat.
With I WANT IT, STAYC achieves what few can: delivering a short-but-sweet album that sparkles with commercial appeal while staying true to their ever-evolving artistic voice. The project celebrates girlhood in all its moods — confident, chaotic, introspective, and joyfully bold.
This isn’t just a summer comeback — it’s a statement of arrival. STAYC isn’t simply chasing trends; they’re building a legacy of authenticity, empowerment, and genre-blending brilliance. And if this release is any indication, the future of K-pop has six names written all over it.
So crank up the volume. Dance like no one’s watching. Cry a little. Slay a lot. STAYC wants it all — and they’re showing the world they’ve got what it takes.
