Pop songs that are sonically engineered to be formulaic enough for the radio, follow the trends of pop music, are catchy and easy to follow, but also shocking and unique in some way that sets them apart from everything else on the radio, making the listener want to listen to these songs more in order to understand them. This term originated from the YouTuber "Internet Jules" as a way to describe artists such as Dua Lipa, Ariana Grande, etc.

NOTE: This isn't a negative term, but is merely a term describing smart pop music writing in the industry.
Person 1: I love that Ariana Grande's new song 'No Tears Left To Cry' so much!!
Person 2: Yeah, she's really good at creating pop crack.

Music made for the soul purpose of being catchy enough to make it on the radio, usually grouped with bad lyrics and the same exact background music as every other crack pop song. Example: Taylor Swift's Shake It Off/Katy Perry's Firework
Did you hear T-Swift put out a new album?

Yeah, its all crack pop, though.
