It is no secret that Stray Kids‘ Felix has an irreplaceable voice that’s recognizable everywhere. But it is not only his iconic deep voice that makes his rap verses so impactful and unforgettable. Felix‘s flow and rapping skills have a way of making every one of his parts special and unique. Felix shines every time he has a rap verse, and here are some of our absolute favorites!
An obvious one, yes, but an iconic one too that simply couldn’t be missed from the list. The chokehold ‘God’s Menu’ had on everyone in 2020 is historic, and so was Felix‘s verse. His delivery made the line so impactful and even more addictive. There are no words to explain the impact of this verse. And we have to give a special shout-out to Felix’s verse in Stray Kids‘ mashup of ‘God’s Menu’ with BLACKPINK’s ‘DDU-DU-DDU-DU.’ Everything about Felix and ‘God’s Menu’ is historic.
‘Placebo / Mixtape #1’ (I am NOT, 2018)
Felix’s verse in ‘Placebo’ has to be one of our favorites, and it’s also arguably one of his most underrated. So we’re here to give it the praise it rightfully deserves! Felix‘s rap in the second verse adds something very special and comforting to the song. This verse feels so natural for Felix that it is so satisfying to hear it every time. The rhythm, his flow and the way the words just roll out of his tongue make his verse one of our favorite moments in ‘Placebo.’ It feels personal and vulnerable yet never fails to brighten our day. That’s Felix for you!
‘WHY?’ (2024)
‘WHY?’ was released as an OST in early 2024, and it genuinely had no business going as hard as it did. This song is perfection. And despite being perfect in every aspect, Felix‘s part is simply mindblowing. This verse is full of Felix‘s unique charisma and personality as he somehow transposes it onto his rapping. ‘WHY?’ is an incredibly addictive song, but Felix’s part is by far the most infectious!
‘UNFAIR’ (2024)
We’ll be honest for a second: ‘UNFAIR’ is what inspired this entire list. Felix’s solo stage at the dominATE Tour changed the chemistry of our brains. His first solo song, ‘Deep End,’ was already heartbreaking, but ‘UNFAIR’ low-key takes it to another level. Not only are the lyrics gorgeous while the song showcases his vocals, but the rap verses are hands-down the best we’ve heard from Felix. The flow, the emotion behind the lyric, the tone, everything about this is perfection. Again, we see Felix’s vulnerability mixed in with his charisma and unique aura. It shows how far Felix has come as a songwriter. We just need to have ‘UNFAIR’ on every streaming platform so that we can listen to it on repeat forever.
‘Muddy Water’ (ODDINARY, 2022)
Before the release of ‘UNFAIR,’ the Felix rap verse was, of course, ‘Muddy Water.’ This is one of the best rap-based songs in Stray Kids‘ discography. It’s simply a masterpiece. What makes the song even better is the way Felix opens it. It’s catchy, it’s bold, and it’s iconic! Between the witty references, the flow, and the feelings behind the lyrics, Felix absolutely ate his verse in this song. It showed a new, more confident side to his rapping. And while ‘UNFAIR’ may have dethroned her, ‘Muddy Water’ will forever be one of Felix‘s most iconic and unforgettable rap verses ever.
