G-dragon is the king of kpop, basically his the Michael jackson of k-pop, a talented man, his a former member of a boygroup called BIGBANG, his influenced in korean music industry is big, like his the idol of idols, all the younger idol idolized him, he just comeback from the 7 years hiatus and now he gonna started his solo career again, simple the man is the goat of k-pop, a trendsetter also
@@benediktusbeanal7278 for info his still member and leader of Bigbang ,, He announced already bigbang will comeback in 2026 of there 20yrs anniversary
@GUILLANBALONGA no he's not, it's not their comeback, it's their reunion. his out from YG ent. U got the info half right half wrong, yes their back but only for reunion and GD is not part of BIGBANG anymore bcs his out from his company.
@@GUILLANBALONGA I guess u should fix ur vocabs of word in the first comment, bcs GD officially out from the group and YG. yes unofficially he still the leader of the group till now. but BIGBANG comeback with full members? I don't think so and their not making a comeback as a whole group. also BIGBANG as a whole group being out from the game for a long time now, in my opinion BIGBANG consist of 3 member, doesn't rlly bring back the power they used to be, yes they still have a place even only 3 bcs it's BIGBANG, but without the other member it just not fit
@@benediktusbeanal7278they still have the power but obviously not with the views and stream just like what is happening today.. i mean we can't consider Babymonster is more powerful than GD if we just base it to the views of their MVs that they drop😊. So many groups that can beat Bigbang or GD when it comes to youtube views but when it comes to unique listener those group are not in the same spot.
He is the KING of KPOP.. there is no financial reason for him to release music. He is wearing Channel women's knit top, Louis Vuitton Scarf... hand made shoes and suit. just on his fingers 3 rings 6 Million each.. While the car in the MV is cardboard cut out - he has a fleet of cars including the cardboard Rolls Royce. He is a professor at KAIST university.. and the video shows himself introducing himself as GOAT to future/young goats in their industries - KIDS - dressed in university blazers.
gd and big bang (his group) are one of my fav kpop artists i'll always tune in for them they are second gen kpop and they have so many good songs we've been waiting for gd for 7 years and this is a pre release i'm so excited for the album
GD is the only artist in kpop who still has my attention and it’s been 7 years since his last cameback, a was stan of 100 of idols like 8-10 yrs ago but now this man is the only one i still has interest in truly one of a kind these days kpop fans will never get how big he was and still is
he is the greatest artist in kpop truly. he started soo many trends and paved the way for kpop groups. i recommend u to check out some other his songs: - untitled, 2014 - crayon - crooked - that xx and he is from BIGBANG, the kings of kpop, i recommend them too!
I am a huge BigBang and G dragon fan but I didn't like this song at first. It was too simple for the g dragon I'm used to but I know I have to deep dive into the lyrics because g dragon is all about wordplay. Then I got that this was a double with him dissing the media because of his drug scandal. Power sounds like the word for fool in Korean. So he's saying I'm too strong to be taken down I got that power and I proved them all wrong I got these fools in one catchy hook.
credits to Tasty_playlist for the lyrics breakdown There are lots of Korean wordplay, so some lines of lyrics might feel awkward, These are some clues that you can understand the song more. 88: GD's birthday is 18.08.1988, So he puts his own meaning on the Number 8. That's why he wrote so many 8s in his lyrics. You can see the Metro map, it's a track-list of his up coming album, there are 8 tracks. The last line of lyrics ("Fly high"): The original Korean lyrics' pronunciation is "Pal Pal Nara" (Means fly high). There is a wordplay as well, 'Pal' is 8, same pronunciation, and 'Pal Pal' is kind of onomatopoeia, 'Nara' is Flying, so this line was translated flying high in English. And that's why the ending scene shows 8 8 (Pal Pal) and GD jumps (Flying) (Nara) In addition, he came back in 88 months since his last comeback. The meaning the wordplay of the lyric "Spot to rest, a Global Luxury": The original Korean Lyric is this, 누울 자리 글로벌 명품 "Nu ul Jari, Global Myong pum (Glo / bal myong pum)" In here, Glo means text, lyrics, writings, everything about word or text. Global is global, the exact english word, but here's the thing, Bal myong pum is Invention. So he connected two Korean words to one English word (Glo + bal). And Myong pum is luxury, the words share same pronunciation, so these are some wordplay using pronunciation of Korean and English. This is crazy wordplay. in my opinion, GD likened home("Spot to rest") to every goal such as social status, honour, his position in the field, and he invented his goals, and it's also luxury. The main hook "I don't give a shh, Laughing end 'Money' Donating 'millions' Grin": last year, GD was suddenly investigated for drug scandal. During the investigation, every single time he attended to police station, he said "I don't care because I never drugged." At the result, the truth is GD was innocent, at the photo-line in front of the police station, he laughed. After the scandal, he recognised that the risk of drugs in Korean society, He founded a foundation for drug eradication, he donated KRW ₩ 300 million (about USD $ 218,828). So this story is where the lyrics came from. Meaning of "Power Abuse questioned Tolerance Natural Disasters Unavoidable Circumstances" During the drug investigation, journalists raised him a suspicion of Power abuse for having Drugs, at the same time, Korean News channels delivered that rumour without fact-check. However after investigation, he was innocent, and he was possible to accuse those News channels, but he was tolerant to them, he announced he will not get a court. This is the story of "Power abused questioned Tolerance" (Natural translation is like "I was tolerant when I was questioned Power Abuse"). Natural Disasters (천재지변: Chun Jae Ji Byun) = (천재, 지병: Chun Jae,[Genius] Ji Byoung[Chronic illness]) same pronunciation wordplay. Genius always has Chronic illness, and it's unavoidable circumstances (irresistible force). Meaning of "Forcefully criticise Spread a meme Talk blah blah shout out": During the investigation of drug, some news channels, fake news UA-camrs, and social media delivered GD's old interviews. In the interviews, he looked like he was addicted to drugs, because he speaks slowly, suddenly smiles, unnatural facial describing and his eyes. And these became memes and many publics criticised him. It was such a baseless criticism. People talked behind his back, but when after he finished the investigation, suddenly many people changed their attitudes, shout out him as usual like they haven't betrayed him at all. This story is where the lyrics came from. When GD says “개꿀” (gae-ggul), it doesn’t mean “super fun” or “good.” In Korean, “개꿀” is a slang term that suggests something is very easy or comfortable. So, when he says “애들이 나보고 개꿀이라더군,” he’s indicating that others perceive his life as very easy or effortless.” Übermensch is a german word that describes a concept from philosophy that means a human that has outgrown himself or herself, that is no longer burdened by the sorrows of ordinary people.
If you look at the music video, it is like the movie The Truman Show, and it is a sarcastic content about people who manipulate facts in the powerful media and make profits through fake news. GD was recently involved in a drug case and felt severe emotional pain. 너에게 새로운 충격이길 바라 = I hope it's a new shock for you I like CL-CHUCK the most I'm sure when you hear CL's song you'll jump off your chair and scream and dance Since I am Korean and speak only a little English, I used a translator. I really like your honest reaction You and I have different languages and cultures, but we feel the same deep soul in good music. this is crazy CL -THE BADDEST FEMALE ( 3 minutes 46 seconds Not a doll ) CL - POST UP CL - TIE A CHERRY CL - CHUCK CL - HELLO BITCHES CL - HWA CL - SPICY CL - ALPHA live JESSI - COLD BLOODED JESSI - WHAT TYPE OF X JESSI - WET JESSI - DRIP HYOLYN - DALLY PSY - GENTLEMAN PSY - DADDY PSY - NOW RAIN JYP - SWITCH TO ME JYP - FEVER ITZY - WANNABE m/v & dance practice TAEYANG - EYES NOSE LIPS ( The picture behind him is his wife ) TAEYANG - SHOONG m/v & dance practice TIGER JK - LOVE PEACE FLIM : KAI ( Dancing with Rorschach ) KAI - MMMH m/v & dance practice 2015MAMA - BIGBANG 2015MAMA - 2NE1 BIGBANG - ZUTTER m/v & dance practice GD TAEYANG - GOODBOY GD - MICHIGO TOP - DOOM DADA LEE HI - H.S.K.T MINO - RUN AWAY MINO - TANG EPIK HIGH - ROSARIO BEWHY - DAY DAY BEWHY - GOTTASADAE IU - KILLING VOICE TIGER JK - KILLING VERSE BIGMAMA - KILLING VOICE IU - KILLING VOICE ( Korea's most loved singer ) Nicknam pleeeeeeeeeeeeease react
If you ever heard any facts abt him that sounds extravagant, trust me its not. Bcs its all true. I wish you will explore more to this goat🙏🏻 any song from him will do. But one thing abt him or his group in general, their live performances is always wayy better than their mv.
Haha first! edit: had to finish the video lol. GDRAGON is kpop/khip-hop king. He's from the 2nd generation of kpop and debuted with his group in 2009, so he's been around for years (mandatory military service started in 2018-ish and he's been on hiatus since he finished). I'm just excited in this new age of music people can learn about GD, so thanks for watching! Other recommendations (though i have wild tastes) is GO, Coup de Tat, Crooked, or his groups songs Loser, Sober, Fxxk It. 🎉
