Overview

Perspective

The title of the album Classy Crush originated from @onefive's group concept, "Japanese Classy Crush".[9] "Classy" refers to old things, stereotypical images and ways of thinking, and conventional ways of doing things. "Crush" expresses @onefive's desire to destroy things of that nature, which hold them back, and to move forward in a new way instead. However, "Japanese" indicates that, while doing away with the negative parts, the group wishes to preserve and promote the parts of old, traditional Japan that are good and beautiful. This concept is encapsulated in the lead song on the album, "OZGi", pronounced ojigi, with its Japanese theme and bowing dance.[10][11]

The album represented a shift for @onefive toward the direction of hip-hop, especially with the digital singles "Justice Day" and "ChocoLove".[12][13] Other musical influences included jungle, Jersey club, traditional Japanese music, and Middle Eastern music.[10][5] Many of the songs depict strong Japanese girls.[14]

The single "Miraizu" (未来図), which was released digitally on November 6, 2022, marked @onefive's major label debut with Avex Trax.[15] It was used as the theme song for the live-action television drama adaptation of the manga If My Favorite Pop Idol Made It to the Budokan, I Would Die, which was first broadcast in October 2022. "Chance" was used as the theme song for the film adaptation that followed on May 12, 2023.[16]

In August 2023, "Like A" was featured in a commercial for the Japanese jewelry brand The Kiss.[17] In April 2024, "Mr.Gorgeous" was featured in a commercial for Amazon Prime Video.[18]

Classy Crush was released in two versions, with one containing a Blu-ray disc in addition to the CD.[19] The album charted at number 16 on the weekly Oricon Albums Chart and at number 17 on the weekly Billboard Japan Top Album Sales chart.[20][21]
