On October 31 G-DRAGON released his first single album after 7 years since 2017, starting new beginnings with 'POWER'.
'POWER' is a pre-release song that fully displays the charm of hip-hop, with G-DRAGON's intense rap added to the addictive beat that captivates the listener's ears. The witty lyrics that make you think about the meaning with ambiguous expressions that highlight his wit.
The previous EP 'Kwon Ji Yong' earned GD the title of the first solo Korean artist to reach No. 1 on the Billboard World Albums chart and the Japanese Oricon Digital Chart, and as such, there is a lot of interest from the public and fans about 'GD's music that you can trust and listen to'. Attention is focused on what kind of legendary record he will set with this pre-released song.
On the tvN show Yoo Quiz on the Block that aired on the 30th, G-DRAGON said,
"I came back because I wanted to make music again as G-DRAGON, not Kwon Ji-yong, so my goal is to make a good comeback," and added, 'POWER' is a song about power. Power to me is 'music.' As a third party, I felt the power of the media was very great during my 7-year hiatus. That's why I included a lot of meanings such as satirizing the power of the media and trying to blend various powers well."
