逸品 refers to something of exceptional quality, a rare and outstanding example of its kind. In the song, Creepy Nuts calls their music and their distinctive flow an 逸品 that shakes venues across Japan, emphasizing its uniqueness and power.
This is a brag song, and a very funny one. Creepy Nuts open by listing the excuses their rivals make: "チート gifted 荒技 wanted" [Cheat, gifted, wild moves, wanted]. チート is the gamer word for cheating, and 無理ゲー is slang for an impossible game. The rivals all say it together: "バグで まぐれ 認めねーゼッテー" [It's a bug, a fluke, I'll never admit it]. Then comes the punchline of the whole song: "マジで? コレおま 全部生身で?" [Seriously? You did all this for real, with no tricks?]. 生身 means your own flesh and blood, no upgrades, and it keeps coming back.
The second verse is R-Shitei bragging about what he lacks: "学歴も無い前科も無い余裕で" [No degree, no criminal record, easy]. He can buy a fancy car but has no licence, and his tongue is the treasure: "このベロが bling-bling" [this tongue is bling-bling]. He name-checks his 関西訛り [Kansai accent], from the Osaka area, and the old Japanese idea of コトダマ [the spirit living in words]. My favourite line is "今宵も三股" [two-timing on three tonight], where his three lovers are music, luck and the goddess of victory. The Snow White mirror bit, "鏡よ鏡 答えちゃって" [Mirror, mirror, go on, answer me], is a bit much, and that is the point.
Creepy Nuts are rapper R-Shitei and DJ Matsunaga, who formed the duo in 2013 and played Fuji Rock the following year. R-Shitei writes the lyrics and Matsunaga builds the tracks.
In 2024 Bling-Bang-Bang-Born, the opening theme of the anime Mashle, spent 19 weeks at number one on the Billboard Japan Hot 100 and reached the top ten of the Billboard Global 200. Their next anime opening, Otonoke for Dandadan, also went to number one, and the two songs made them the first Japanese act with two songs certified Gold by the RIAA.
