cray
Slang for unhinged
Cray is slang for crazy, shortened by dropping the final syllable.
It describes something wild, intense, or absurd: That party was cray.
The doubled form cray cray intensifies it further.
The term gained wide currency in the early 2010s through hip-hop, particularly Kanye West's line "that shit cray." It sounds dated now but persists in casual speech.
