G-Dragon's Comeback

On Sept 16, Big Bang's leader, G-Dragon made his comeback on Inkigayo. This is his first solo activity after three years since Heartbreaker. He performed One Of A Kind together with Taeyang as one of the dancers. I'm not sure how can one be more supportive than the sun. Heh, Hi Taeyang!

Both One of A Kind and Crayon performances were great! It is difficult to describe him, he is way too powerful as an idol, and his comeback was a success(allkill and all)! The thing about G-Dragon is that he's phenomenal in making great beat but he doesn't really write deeply meaningful lyrics. However, that's what attractive about him, he writes songs that are easy on youngsters - all about getting crazy, young love and complimenting yourself which I'm pretty sure are going to change as time passes and as G-Dragon ages. This album symbolises GD's current state, Young, Free and we're not sure about in love. 

Crayon which is a hybrid of Crazy and GD's birth name, Ji Yong is a party song which we can foresee to be played at clubs. One of A Kind is a more of a self-complimenting song, we get it GD you're young and rich and you don't have to be sorry for it. Missing you feat. Kim Yuna is much more mellow than the rest of the songs and a great change from all his fast beat songs. My favorite is That XX, it's not often we see GD sings such an emotional song. It's explicit but it's honest. Who in k-pop dare to say 'motherf b*' in a song? Well, GD did.. Besides, Without You(결국) stood out the most to me for it's smooth beat and although I didn't really agree with Kim Yuna's featuring in Missing You, I'm loving this girl from YG's upcoming girl group. Her voice has the nice balance of high and low which perfectly suit the song. Without You to me is an upgraded version of Big Bang's Blue musical wise although people do not really appeal to it as it's not a promoted song and most of the lyrics are in korean  different from Blue's famous line 'I'm singing my blues' which is globally understood worldwide. 

When they say music has no language limits, they got me thinking- really? At a certain point, there's a limit. 

He also released his official music video for both One Of A Kind and Crayon. Watch his comeback video and official mv's below!

GD asked "What am I lesser than that XX ?" We're not sure, but you're pretty darn cute GD !

Crayon official music video


I'm not sure about you but after the first time I heard Crayon, I was already singing "머리(head) 어깨(shoulder) 무릎(knee) 발(toe) swag check, swag check". GD probably doesn't need swag check, but he insisted anyway.
