During an interview with SBS show HANBAM!, Swan described the group name "CRAXY" as a combination of 'crack', to signify cracking up prejudices, and 'sexy', referring to the eye-catching charm of the members.[1][2][3]

History

2020: Debut and Rookie Year

[edit]

On February 13, 2020, the group announced that they would debut on March 1 with their album My Universe, which would consist of ten tracks, including all of their pre-debut songs and the title track, "Aria".[4] The official music video for "Aria" was released on March 3, 2020 and features the members of CRAXY portraying historical Korean figures of various eras.[5]

2021–present: Zero story concept and rebirth with XX

[edit]

My Universe would be followed up with a number of singles and mini-albums in 2021 and 2022, starting with the single album ZERO in 2021, featuring title track "GAIA".[6] ZERO was followed up on February 24, 2022, with ZERO 2 including title track "Dance with God".[7] On August 16, 2022, CRAXY released their third mini-album titled Who Am I in 2022, featuring the title track "Undercover".[8]

On November 10, 2022, the digital single "Poison Rose" was released.[9] Initially slated for release on 31 October, "Poison Ivy" was delayed to respect the national mourning period following the Itaewon disaster.[10]

On March 23, 2023, CRAXY's 4th mini-album, XX, was released, which included "Poison Rose" and new title track "NUGUDOM".[11] Leading up to the release of XX, CRAXY removed much of their previous content on social media sites, advising that they wished to "return to the beginning and reorganize everything" including "image, to stage contept, to worldview - everything except the group name."[12][13] "NUGUDOM" received particular attention across the global K-Pop community for directly confronting those who mock artists that are less famous.[14][15][16]

On May 9, 2023, digital single "No Limit", a rap track from the album XX, was released.[17]

On July 31, 2023, ChaeY was removed from the group due to the company's decision.

On June 26, 2024, CRAXY released their 1st SINGLE ALBUM [𝗥𝗘_].

Concert promoter Leo Presents has announced that CRAXY will take part in the KPOP Breakout Tour, along with the groups Ichillin' and Trendz, as well as soloist U-CHAE, that is scheduled to happen fall 2024, with dates across Canada and the United States yet to be announced.
