I think a business guy is different from an artist. They walk different paths. Artists create the best outputs when they're having fun. And when a good business partner supports them from the side, it creates great synergy. When someone's trying to do both, I think the music gets bad and the business gets bad, too.
G-DragonI have good pronunciation no matter what language I speak. Maybe it’s because my specialties are rapping and imitating others
G-DragonI want to say it to so many people, 'why you have to be so serious?' And I also want people to think 'this kid has really gone crazy' when they see my performance on the stage. Luckily, I am able to achieve all of these.
G-DragonLike anybody, I like clothes, and I enjoy what I like to wear. We might have a difference in personal outfit choices. Some might not like it. But to judge someone because of their appearance is pretty foolish. If you have time to do that, I suggest you look at yourself in the mirror and spend more time developing yourself. Come on, it's 2013.
G-DragonI don't really think I know myself. I don't quite get how K-pop is functioning. But I'm certain that we need to grab the approval when we have the chance.
G-DragonWhen I am doing music, I sometimes become over compulsive to 'always make some new music'. I think I am like this because I sense what others are perceiving me as. If I work extraordinarily hard because of these expectations, I will, but I just cannot produce the good music that I want.
G-DragonI only wear clothes because I can't walk around with nothing on, but they started calling me a fashionista.
G-DragonYou know if you're in Rome, live in the Roman way. I grew up there, I was born there, and so I should follow its guidelines, live like a Korean. And I really love Korea. I grew up listening to Korean music, and was able to get to where I am because of it.
G-DragonI'm the most comfortable when I'm at home resting doing nothing.I feel the most myself when I'm with music.
G-DragonThe only thing I have to do in life is die. Everything else is a choice... including breathing.
G-DragonI’m very proud of Seungri. I worked over a year for my album, but one day YG told Seungri to make an album and he made one in just 2 weeks. Ah, maybe 3 weeks. He’s a true genius. I’m jealous of his propulsion.
G-DragonI don't want to go to a foreign country and get lumped into that genre. I'm just looking at the bigger picture. This K-pop title might be good for now, but looking ahead it could hold me back, like a prison of sort. I'm a little wary about that.
G-DragonSeungri sounds mournful while T.O.P has a masculine and husky voice. My voice is thin, just like when I talk
G-DragonSince the whole world is now concerned more about K-pop, I want to make more great songs which can be listed to as classics.
G-DragonWe’ve been proud of the fact that we were known for our music first and it has been what makes us work harder
G-DragonWhen I was producing the first solo album, i just wanted to convey some messages through it. The message was 'no blood will come out even if I am pinned' However, after trying out different kinds of music activities, I started to change and wanted to convey my real emotion that I have in my everyday life. I want to express the feelings that everyone has felt at least once, in music so I think people will feel/understand my songs.
G-DragonWhat we should really fear is not failure but the heart that is no longer brave enough to take risks and embrace challenges
G-DragonIf I meet my ideal woman, I want to get married straight away. And start making a world of just the two of us.
G-DragonI have this disease-like need to try to create something new. When you're kind of being chased, and everything you do goes so well, you develop this sickness and a sense of need to constantly do something different.
G-Dragon
