G-DRAGON Tracks to Listen to Before his “Übermensch” Concert in Bulacan

G-DRAGON is back, and this time he’s bringing ‘Übermensch’ to Bulacan. Whether you’ve been following his music since the Heartbreaker days or you’re new to his solo work, now’s the perfect time to revisit some of the songs that built his legacy.

Here are 7 songs to put on repeat before the show

These tracks don’t just showcase his style — they hint at the emotion, energy and artistry fans can expect live.

Crooked (삐딱하게)

Released on September 2, 2013, as part of the album Coup d’Etat, Crooked combines punk-pop sounds with lyrics about isolation and emotional detachment. It’s a song about putting on a front while dealing with internal struggles. The energy is high but the message is personal, making it one of his most well-rounded tracks.

Heartbreaker

Heartbreaker came out on August 18, 2009, as the title track of G-DRAGON’s debut solo album. It deals with the frustration of a one-sided breakup and marked a shift in how male soloists were viewed in K-pop. The sound was futuristic for its time and helped define his early solo identity.

POWER

“POWER” is G-Dragon’s latest release ahead of the Übermensch project. The track combines sharp beats with confident lyrics, marking his return to music after years of hiatus. Unlike his past experimental work, this song leans into a sleek, focused sound. The lyrics talk about regaining control, rebuilding strength, and facing the world without fear. It’s a fitting prelude to his new era

Crayon

Released on September 15, 2012, from the mini-album One of a Kind, Crayon is fast, loud and unpredictable. The name blends “crazy” and “G-DRAGON,” and the song plays into that theme. It’s less about narrative and more about energy and self-expression.

Untitled, 2014

Untitled, 2014 was released on June 8, 2017, as part of the Kwon Ji Yong EP. It’s a simple piano ballad with no background distractions. The lyrics read like a letter to someone he regrets hurting, and the stripped-back style puts focus on the emotion rather than the production.

That XX (그 XX)

Released on September 1, 2012, ahead of the One of a Kind mini-album, That XX is an acoustic track where G-DRAGON talks about watching someone he cares about get hurt by someone else. It’s more raw and straightforward than his usual work, and that’s what gives it impact.

Home Sweet Home

A recent addition to G-DRAGON’s discography, Home Sweet Home was released on November 22, 2024, as the second single from his third studio album, Übermensch. The song features fellow BIGBANG members Taeyang and Daesung, marking a significant reunion. With its pop-rock genre and themes of reconnection and nostalgia, the track resonates with fans, symbolizing a return to roots and the enduring bond between the artists and their audience.

Listening to these tracks gives a better understanding of where G-DRAGON has been musically and emotionally. With May 17 at Philippine Arena coming up fast, now’s the perfect time to revisit his music and get ready for the show.
