On October 31 at 6 PM, G-Dragon unveiled his latest digital single titled “POWER” on a variety of music streaming services. This track marks his first solo endeavor since his mini-album “Kwon Ji-yong,” which was released over 7 years ago in 2017.
“POWER” boasts a captivating rhythm paired with G-Dragon’s signature vigorous rap style. The lyrics stand out for their straightforward yet cryptic nature, seemingly critiquing the controversies surrounding the drug allegations he faced last year. During this period, he underwent tests on hair, nails, and other samples, all of which returned negative, affirming his innocence.
“Now I got the power, The power power up power power The power up power power yet, yet Pump up the power I’m free yap, yap Don’t waste your time yea it’s gotta be me Prove ‘em all wrong I’ve got all the receipts I got the power the power power up power I’m beautiful because I am me yep, yep
