E.G. Crazy is a double album by Japanese girl group E-girls. Rhythm Zone released it in various formats on January 3, 2017. Prior to the album's release, the group's management team, LDH, released a new line-up system that removed several members from E-girls; as a result, it is the first album without members Chiharu Muto and Kyoka Ichiki due to their personal departures, as well as minimal appearances by Erie Abe, who appeared as the group's DJ. Additionally, LDH president Exile Hiro produced the entire album.

E.G. Crazy is a concept album made up of two separate records, E.G. Pop and E.G. Cool. The former emphasises more bubbly and upbeat J-pop musical elements, whereas E.G. Cool has a more edgier style that incorporates various electronic dance influences. Furthermore, several tracks on the album reference the album's theme, Neo Girls, which combines various international cultures and styles through the lens of Japanese women. Both albums have 12 songs, with a mix of new tracks, B-sides, and cover songs performed by various members of the band.

The album was a commercial success in Japan. It debuted at number one on the Oricon Albums Chart and Billboard Japan Top Albums, and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) for shipments of over 100,000 units. Six pre-released and additional singles from the album were released, and all were successful in Japan; "Pink Champagne," the album's fifth single, was certified gold in Japan. To promote the album, E-girls embarked on their E.G. Evolution concert tour of Japan, which was followed by a live release.
