Tokyo, Japan — Record-breaking Japanese rap duo Creepy Nuts have shared a music video for their song “Chxxai,” off of the pair’s 2025 full-length album Legion. The clip finds MC R-Shitei and DJ Matsunaga performing in an odd pink room resembling a laboratory, with the pair delivering a high-energy performance. Directed by frequent collaborator Daiki Kamoshita, it’s an unnerving setting matching the dark groove inspired by drift-phonk dance tunes, delivered in a frantic minute and 39 seconds.
Watch the video here.
The “Chxxai” video arrives right after Creepy Nuts released the physical version of double single “Mirage / Nemure.” Upon its digital release in July, “Mirage” made history by debuting at number one on Billboard Japan’s “Global Japan Songs Excluding Japan” chart, with fellow songs “Otonoke” and “Bling-Bang-Bang-Born” in spots two and three respectively, becoming the first act to ever occupy the top three positions on the chart simultaneously. It’s just the latest global hit from a group at the forefront of J-pop’s expansion into the global scene.
After a busy summer, Creepy Nuts is set to embark on its first-ever Asia tour this fall. They are touring in Seoul, Taipei, Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Beijing starting from mid October.
