Crush is the second and final studio album by South Korean girl group 2NE1. It was released on February 27, 2014, by YG Entertainment. The album marked the group's first Korean album release since 2NE1 2nd Mini Album (2011) and their first studio album in four years following To Anyone (2010). Crush was produced by Teddy, Choice 37, Dee.P, Masta Wu, Choi Pil-kang and Peejay, as well as group leader CL. Stylistically, the album incorporates a broad range of musical influences from R&B, hip hop, dance, electronic, and reggae.
Crush received positive reviews from music critics who praised its production and composition; the record's innovation was particularly appreciated with its integration of various stylistic elements. Rolling Stone and Fuse listed Crush as one of the best albums released during the year worldwide. The album sold over 5,000 copies within four days in the US and debuted at number 61 on the Billboard 200, making it the best-selling and the highest charting Korean album in the country at the time. The Japanese edition of Crush was made available on June 25, 2014, and peaked at number four on the Oricon Albums Chart.
The lead single from the album, "Come Back Home", peaked at number one on the Gaon Digital Chart for two consecutive weeks, becoming the group's ninth number-one single in South Korea. The second single, "Gotta Be You", was promoted on music program Inkigayo and peaked at number three on the Gaon Digital Chart. Shortly after the release of Crush, the group embarked on their final concert tour, the All or Nothing World Tour, which visited multiple countries in Asia.
Background and development
Following the success of 2NE1's debut studio-album To Anyone (2010),{{cite web |last1=Park |first1=Jong-gyu |date=September 20, 2010 |title='파죽지세' 2NE1, 국내 넘어 세계시장까지 장악한다! |trans-title=2NE1 with strong momentum dominates the global market beyond the domestic market |url=http://www.asiae.co.kr/news/view.htm?idxno=2010092008595786195 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150721043319/http://www.asiae.co.kr/news/view.htm?idxno=2010092008595786195 |archive-date=July 21, 2015 |access-date=April 24, 2021 |website=Asia Economy |language=ko}} rumors began to circulate about the group's second full-length Korean-language album. Prior to the release of the group's 2012 single "I Love You", YG Entertainment CEO Yang Hyun-suk unveiled plans for 2NE1 to release a new single every three weeks, eventually leading up to a new album.{{cite web |last1=Kang |first1=Seung-hoon |date=June 29, 2012 |title=2NE1, 1년만에 싱글 'I Love You' 컴백 |trans-title=2NE1, single 'I Love You' comeback after 1 year |url=https://www.tvreport.co.kr/240919 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210102025756/https://www.tvreport.co.kr/240919 |archive-date=January 2, 2021 |access-date=January 2, 2021 |publisher=TVReport |language=ko}} One year later in June 2013, however, Yang once again unveiled plans for the promotion of a series of songs leading up to a new album, supposedly to be released that October.{{cite web |date=June 18, 2013 |title=2NE1, 레게도 합니다…'Falling in Love' |trans-title=2NE1, a new reggae song...'Falling in Love' |url=https://news.nate.com/view/20130618n11885 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210426022022/https://news.nate.com/view/20130618n11885 |archive-date=April 26, 2021 |access-date=April 5, 2021 |publisher=Newsis |language=ko |via=Nate}} It was only until February 13, 2014, when YG officially confirmed via YG Life the release of 2NE1's second Korean-language studio album, titled Crush, for February 24.{{cite web |last1=Ju-young |first1=Yeom |date=February 13, 2014 |title=2NE1, 24일 전격 컴백 예고 '4년 만의 정규 앨범' |trans-title=2NE1, a surprise comeback notice on the 24th 'Full album in 4 years' |url=https://entertain.naver.com/read?oid=011&aid=0002466191 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210426022021/https://entertain.naver.com/read?oid=011&aid=0002466191 |archive-date=April 26, 2021 |access-date=April 7, 2021 |publisher=Naver |language=ko}} The agency announced that the full-length album would instead consist of ten new tracks, with the exception of the Korean version of their Japanese single "Scream" (2012).{{cite web |last1=Lee |first1=Seung-rok |date=February 13, 2014 |title=YG 2NE1, 2월 24일 'CRUSH'로 컴백 공식발표 |trans-title=YG 2NE1 officially announces comeback with 'Crush' on February 24th |url=http://www.mydaily.co.kr/new_yk/html/read.php?newsid=201402130105211139&ext=na |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190702195305/http://www.mydaily.co.kr/new_yk/html/read.php?newsid=201402130105211139&ext=na |archive-date=July 2, 2019 |access-date=April 5, 2021 |website=My Daily}}

On February 19, 2014, it was announced that the release of the album would be postponed to two days later than originally intended, in order to coincide with the birthday of CL on the 26th.{{cite web |date=19 February 2014 |title=2NE1, 새앨범 음원공개 연기, 이유가 황당 "씨엘~" |trans-title=2NE1's new album postponed for 'CL' |url=http://news.heraldcorp.com/view.php?ud=20140219000773&md=20140222004858_BL |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210426022053/http://news.heraldcorp.com/view.php?ud=20140219000773&md=20140222004858_BL |archive-date=April 26, 2021 |access-date=April 24, 2021 |website=The Herald Economy |language=ko}} At the same time, the tracklist for the album was unveiled, and it was announced that "Come Back Home" and "Gotta Be You" would serve as its two singles. The name of the former track sparked curiosity among fans due to Yang's former group Seo Taiji and Boys having a song of the same name (1995); in an interview with Vice, 2NE1 leader CL confirmed that the name of the song was in fact intended to pay homage to the former group, although the concept of the music video would remain different.{{cite web |last1=Dorof |first1=Jacob |date=March 2, 2014 |title=An Interview with K-Pop Favorites 2NE1 and Their New Videos for 'Happy' and 'Come Back Home' |url=https://www.vice.com/en/article/rykqwr/video-k-pop-2ne1-happy-come-back-home |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210421025450/https://www.vice.com/en/article/rykqwr/video-k-pop-2ne1-happy-come-back-home |archive-date=April 21, 2021 |access-date=April 5, 2021 |website=Vice |language=en}}{{cite web |date=February 19, 2014 |title=투애니원, 정규 2집 발매 26일로 연기…더블 타이틀곡으로 활동 |trans-title=2NE1, postponed their 2nd regular album release to the 26th...

Crush received positive reviews from music critics. Rolling Stone named it the sixth best pop album of 2014—the only appearance from an Asian artist on the list, with Charles Aaron writing "Almost two years after K-pop first giddily barged into America's imagination, the genre hasn't sustained a post-"Gangnam Style" wave, but the Seoul machine [2NE1] keeps humming." He further highlighted the diversity of all its tracks, and identified "MTBD" as the album's centerpiece.{{cite web|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/20-best-pop-albums-of-2014-165076/lykke-li-i-never-learn-35114/|title=20 Best Pop Albums of 2014|last1=Aaron|first1=Charles|last2=Ganz|first2=Caryn|last3=Johnston|first3=Maura|author3-link=Maura Johnston |last4=Spanos|first4=Brittany|last5=Walters|first5=Barry|publisher=Rolling Stone|date=December 19, 2014|access-date=September 16, 2018}} Fuse noted the group's "knack for genre-melding" and wrote that "After fans waited nearly four years for their second full-length album, the K-pop phenoms did not disappoint with a slew of forward-thinking, wholly-accessible tracks". They selected "Come Back Home", "Baby I Miss You" and "Gotta Be You" as the album standouts.{{cite web |date=June 18, 2014 |title=2NE1's album 'Crush' named among Fuse TV's top 25 albums of 2014 |url=http://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20140618000869 |access-date=May 30, 2021 |website=The Korea Herald |language=en}}{{Cite web|last1=Benjamin|first1=Jeff|last2=Xu|first2=Tina|date=February 27, 2014|title=9 Reasons to Love 2NE1's 'Crush' Album|url=https://www.fuse.tv/2014/02/2ne1-crush-album-breakdown|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150224060639/https://www.fuse.tv/2014/02/2ne1-crush-album-breakdown|archive-date=February 24, 2015|website=Fuse TV}} The publication further included Crush in their year-end ranking of best 40 worldwide albums of 2014.{{Cite web|date=December 15, 2014|title=40 Best Albums of 2014|url=https://www.fuse.tv/2014/12/best-of-2014-albums|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190513030015/https://www.fuse.tv/2014/12/best-of-2014-albums|archive-date=May 13, 2019|access-date=September 24, 2021|website=Fuse}}
Billboard ranked it the number one best K-pop album of the year, where they felt that it "proved more than worth the nearly-four-year wait" and highlighted the record's venture into new sonic territory with the fusion of different genres. August Brown of Los Angeles Times stated that "'Crush' has one foot in each country's pop music: K-pop's neon melodies, with sounds from America's trap and bass-music scenes. It's the most coherent LP to come out of this generation of K-pop." Writing for Pitchfork, Corban Goble commented that "The brash all-female Korean pop supergroup 2NE1's new album, Crush, bottles up contemporary trends as well as their usual EDM/reggae/hip-hop/R&B stylemash. But it represents a sleeker, more refined vision for the group."{{Cite web|last=Goble|first=Corban|date=March 28, 2014|title=2NE1: Crush Album Review|url=https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/19165-2ne1-crush/|url-status=live|access-date=2021-07-06|website=Pitchfork|language=en|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140328130154/http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/19165-2ne1-crush/ |archive-date=March 28, 2014 }} Conversely, Jeon Min-seok of webzine IZM had a more critical stance, feeling that the songs from the record were not as great as those found in the group's earlier albums.
Crush was chosen as the Favorite Girl Group Album on the "Girl Group Week Readers' Poll" hosted by Billboard in May 2014, beating albums by Girls Aloud, Little Mix, Destiny's Child and the Spice Girls.{{cite magazine |date=May 3, 2014 |title=2NE1, Spice Girls and Fifth Harmony Dominates Girl Group Week |magazine=Billboard |url=http://m.billboard.com/entry/view/id/87848 |access-date=May 8, 2014 |archive-date=May 8, 2014 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20140508233804/http://m.billboard.com/entry/view/id/87848 |url-status=dead }} Billboard named it the 18th greatest K-pop album of the 2010s decade while Paste named it the 20th greatest K-pop album of all time, with the latter calling it a worthwhile last album "to one of K-pop's most important girl groups."
Commercial performance
Following its release, Crush sold over 5,000 copies within four days in the United States and debuted at number 61 on the Billboard 200. In doing so, the album broke two records: the best selling K-pop album in the country (the record has since been beaten by Exo's Exodus which sold 6,000 copies) and the highest-charting album by a Korean artist on the Billboard 200, which would hold the record for two and a half years. In the group's native country South Korea, the album debuted and peaked at number two on the Gaon Album Chart in the chart issue dated March 2–8, 2014.{{cite web |title=2014년 12주차 Album Chart |url=http://gaonchart.co.kr/main/section/chart/album.gaon?nationGbn=T&serviceGbn=&targetTime=11&hitYear=2014&termGbn=week |access-date=29 September 2021 |publisher=Gaon Chart}} According to Gaon's mid-year charts, the tracks from Crush have been downloaded over 5.2 million times;{{cite web |date=July 18, 2014 |title=2NE1 Charts 6 Songs on Gaon 2014 Mid-Year Charts + Reaches 5.2 Million Downloads |url=http://ygladies.com/news/honors-rankings/140716-2ne1-charts-6-songs-on-gaon-2014-mid-year-charts |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20140725192916/http://ygladies.com/news/honors-rankings/140716-2ne1-charts-6-songs-on-gaon-2014-mid-year-charts |archive-date=July 25, 2014 |work=YG Ladies}} however, it underperformed it terms of physical sales compared to the group's previous records. Due to its successful digital performance, it landed their fourth nomination for Album of the Year at the 2014 Melon Music Awards.
Controversy
File:CL AON 2014 Jakarta 5.png
Listeners accused the sixth track, "MTBD", of having an audio sample of a young boy reciting Quran verses. This struck social media by storm amongst 2NE1's Muslim listeners, with even death threats being posted on both the group's and CL's social media pages. Because of this controversy, YG Entertainment released an alternate version of "MTBD" which omits the sample.{{cite web|url=http://www.kpopstarz.com/articles/83003/20140310/cl-mtbd-quran.htm|title=CL Receiving Death Threats From Alleged Muslims For Possible 'MTBD' Quran Verse On 2NE1 'Crush' Album|publisher=KPopStarz|date=March 10, 2014}}
