Expressing excitement for the collaboration, the “Why?’ performers’ management told The Korea Herald, “We expect the collaboration between these world-renowned artists to reach new heights and satisfy their fandom.”

This collaboration follows Stray Kids’ successful venture with rapper Lil Durk on the remix of “All My Life” in 2023. The group also stands as one of three K-pop acts, alongside BTS and Super M, to top the Billboard 200 chart across all genres back in March 2022 with their EP, “Oddinary.”

In addition to the eagerly awaited release of “Lose My Breath,” the eight-member powerhouse group has teased a multitude of projects for the year ahead, including a third world tour, a fourth fan meeting, as well as plans for both a full-length album and a special album release.
