Rock-Star was released on November 10, 2023. Japanese singer-songwriter Lisa features on the seventh track " Social Path", recorded in Korean instead of Japanese, which was originally included on the group's Japanese EP Social Path / Super Bowl (Japanese Ver.). Other contributors include Versachoi, Cubeatz, Luis Bacque, Willie Weeks, Millionboy, Nickko Young, and Jun2. The EP was described as a "powerful album, adding strength and energy to spirit," aiming to "go beyond any evaluation," and showing "the rock star aspect and freedom latenting within ," as well as "our pleasure continues no matter what happen." 3Racha-an in-house production team of Stray Kids members Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han-wrote and produced all songs on the album, and member Hyunjin co-wrote "Cover Me" with Bang Chan. Rock-Star consists of eight tracks with a duration of 25 minutes and 27 seconds. Music and lyrics Japanese singer-songwriter Lisa features on "Social Path". The concept of Rock-Star is based on the Korean four-character idiom huiroaerak ( 희로애락 喜怒哀樂 lit. "joy, anger, sorrow, pleasure"), depicting various emotions from the group's perspective. With its "close relationship" with the previous album, as described by members, Rock-Star shows more "untamed energy" than the "unique-colored" 5-Star. The Korean title of the EP 樂-Star is a word play with the English title Rock-Star, in which the Sino-Korean pronunciation of 樂 ( rak) is similar to rock. As the boy and his bandmates enter the stage, the rock-inspired heavy electric guitar began playing, and Felix and Bang Chan shout "Let's show them how we rock!". The scenes switches to Stray Kids robbing a bank joyfully alongside a group of clowns, becoming angry pirates on the ship, and looking up at a clock sadly. Narrated by Felix's "calming" and Bang Chan's "manic" and "theatrical" voices, the visual focuses on a boy, a trumpet player of marching band, falling asleep while waiting for a performance, expressing his agitated emotion.
