CRAXY has officially made their highly-anticipated comeback with "XX" - the group's 4th mini-album, accompanied by the title track, which is interestingly titled 'NUGUDOM'. Challenging the status quo of K-Pop with the message of leading the way in the cutthroat competition of the industry regardless of naysayers, 'NUGUDOM' is an outstanding blend of classical music, sampling Carlos Gardel's 'Por Una Cabeza' (which you might remember from "Scent Of A Woman"), and hip-hop, signifying reinvention and rebellion.
This 4th generation girl group is taking the Korean word 'nugu', which is often used by K-Pop fans to refer to less popular groups, and is turning it on its head, reclaiming it as a warcry. Needless to say, this is a power move if we've ever seen one.
In this respect, the CEO of CRAXY's agency SAI Entertainment, recently responded to CROWN's concerns about the group's promotions, sharing the unseen difficulties of being cast in music shows. Still, the company is trying their best to put CRAXY out there so that they may shine in all their glory for their talents and art.
Going back to "XX", this album was produced by renowned producer Kevin_D (D_answer), who has been in charge of CRAXY's overall production since their 3rd mini album "WHO AM I", and has caught the attention of industry insiders. In addition, several other famous songwriters have worked on this album alongside CRAXY to deliver the finest musical experience.
The tracklist features eight songs, viz. 'Black Out', 'NUGUDOM', 'Finger Flick', 'It’s Alright', 'Lucid Dream', 'Poison Rose', 'Undercover (Remix EDM ver.)', and 'Cypher (Position)'. All the songs are brilliant expressions of CRAXY's versatility and shine the spotlight on each member's unique strengths. The distinct color of the group is clearly visible, impressing fans and critics alike. This is definitely one of the best CRAXY comebacks and we're even more excited for what the group has in store for us next.
"XX" marks the conclusion of CRAXY's "ZERO" worldview and ushers the beginning of a whole new era that highlights the group's growth and evolution, prefacing even greater things to come in the future.
With that said, we have an exciting announcement for CROWN all over the world that's sure to get you dancing with joy! Kpopmap is proud to present a special event in collaboration with the talented 4th generation girl group, CRAXY!
