Singer G-Dragon has presented the most G-Dragon-like music through his first regular album in 11 years and 5 months.
G-Dragon released his third regular album 'Übermensch' on the afternoon of the 25th. 'Übermensch' means 'Beyond-Man' in English, indicating G-Dragon's return as a being that transcends himself.
The title track 'Too Bad' is a song that makes you want to groove the moment you hear it, with a joyful and rhythmic beat. It is a collaboration with American-Korean singer-songwriter, rapper, and drummer Anderson .Paak, which has already garnered attention.
The unveiled 'Too Bad' music video is a culmination of trendiness, from the beat to the vocal harmonies. Enjoying a party in a free-spirited atmosphere, with expressions that come from flipping hair. It expresses his unique 'hip' with a sense of freedom and kitsch, making the 11 years and 5 months since his last regular album feel insignificant.
His fashionista side also stood out. G-Dragon perfectly made every outfit his own, from a pink sequin jacket that is hard to pull off to a yellow outfit with prominent black patterns, enhancing the visual enjoyment.
Another 'kick' is the special appearance of Karina from the group aespa. The pair dance between G-Dragon and Karina, exuding both cuteness and sexiness, is another highlight that makes you want to watch the music video repeatedly.
Among music fans who have experienced 'Too Bad', positive reactions are pouring in, such as "The song is shockingly good," "The beat is killer," "I can feel G-Dragon's return," and "It was worth the wait." The music video also surpassed 620,000 views in just about an hour after its release, receiving hot attention.
G-Dragon, who dominated the charts with last year's digital single 'Power' and 'Home Sweet Home' with BIGBANG members Taeyang and Daesung, is off to a good start with his first regular album in 11 years and 5 months. It is noteworthy what records he will write through this new release.
Meanwhile, G-Dragon will embark on a large-scale world tour starting with 'G-Dragon 2025 World Tour Übermensch in Korea' at Goyang Sports Complex on March 29 and 30.
