On Wednesday, October 3, Stray Kids' Bang Chan was asked about Felix's vocals in the group's latest B-side track, Cover Me. The idol kickstarted a livestream on Weverse to spend time with his fans as it was his birthday. During one of the livestream's sections, the idol read a few comments and answered questions.
One of the questions asked Bang Chan, whether a particular vocal part from Cover Me was actually sung by Felix. This was his second time confirming this information as he previously talked about the same at a Stray Kids' concert. This left many STAYs angry and upset. People called out netizens for undermining the Stray Kids members' vocal abilities.
Additionally, many fans also expressed that it was upsetting and unfair for netizens to demand confirmation from Bang Chan. Therefore, fans pointed out that the behavior was unacceptable and unnecessary as it also majorly questioned the idol's qualities and skills as a vocalist. Here's how fans and netizens reacted to the same:
"also he already said that why are ppl asking it again? do they have comprehension problems?"
"The fact that some people were genuinely p*ssed off at this is disappointing & disturbing" said a fan on X
"truly don't understand why you all choose to take everything as a joke when it comes to Felix. It's not hard to understand that he has a wide vocal range but you just choose not to take it seriously" stated an X user
More netizens talked about how they hoped at least after Bang Chan's repeated confirmation about Felix's part in Cover Me that netizens would appreciate and stop doubting the idol's vocal range.
"Idk why people think he’s lying like we all know he has amazing vocal range" commented another netizen
"If anyone is still doubting just know u hate Flx u r not a fan if u can't appreciates his vocals" added a netizen
"The confusion and 4th guessing his talents is due to him not being given any opportunity to showcase more than his deep voice…" stated an X user
