STAYC is making waves again with their bold and catchy music!
On July 22 KST, popular U.S. music magazine Billboard revealed their picks for "The 25 Best K-Pop Songs of 2025 (So Far)", and STAYC’s hit track “BEBE” proudly made the list.
According to Billboard, “‘BEBE’ is a powerful song that shows STAYC’s growth into confident young women. The mix of singing and rapping over a house-style beat feels like a bold statement of self-worth.”
Critics also praised the song’s multilingual hook, which features English, Korean, and even French, saying it takes STAYC’s fun and unique charm to a whole new level.
‘BEBE’ is the title track of the group’s 5th single album ‘S’, released in March. The song sends a clear message about being true to yourself instead of living up to other people’s expectations.
With its funky beat, catchy drop, and cool choreography created by Kinki, the track perfectly highlights the group’s strengths in both music and performance.
As soon as it was released, ‘BEBE’ received a huge reaction from fans around the world. It charted well both in Korea and internationally, and quickly became a favorite on music shows — showing just how far STAYC has come.
This shoutout from Billboard is more than just a sign of popularity — it proves that STAYC is growing as a strong performance group that knows how to tell stories through their music and stage presence. ‘BEBE’ has become a signature song that represents their musical growth and global appeal.
On July 23, STAYC came back with a special single called ‘I WANT IT’, showing off their summer vibe with the concept “cool attitude, hot sound.”
After showing a more mature side with ‘BEBE,’ the girls are now set to take over summer stages and rise as global summer queens.
STAYC is also continuing their world tour, with upcoming stops in North America, Taipei, Singapore, and Hong Kong — bringing their exciting energy to fans around the globe.
