Big Bang G-Dragon's "Who You" - Pathetic, Are All Breakups the Same?

All break ups end the same. International star G-Dragon showed himself to be just as pathetic as anyone when facing a breakup.

Released on September 2nd, G-Dragon's single from his second solo album, "Who You" broke away from the previous concepts that portrayed G-Dragon as a powerful, confident hip-hopper and portrayed him as a pathetic recipient of a breakup who can't get over the girl who left him.

The song starts with a sarcastic congratulation - "Congratulations on getting a man so quickly, be happy" - changes quickly into annoyance - "Why are so happy when I'm so miserable? Who do you think you are?" Finally, the song breaks down into a pathetic cry - "I'm pathetic, I know, please come back to me."

The song portrays the emotional distress that many, if not most people experience through a breakup, and that is precisely the appeal for the song. Lyrics such as "I'm getting upset, because you shouldn't mean so much to me" or "I can't meet anyone else and I'm confused as to whether I hate you or love you" is an accurate portrayal of a person who has gone through a nasty breakup.

Although the lyrics are very depressing, the song itself is upbeat and very poppy. G-Dragon's vocals and a fun chorus fill the song completely and is sure to be a trademark G-Dragon track that can be enjoyed without being bogged down by the content of the song. G-Dragon continues to progress in his skills in rapping as well as vocals, and his improvements are clearly portrayed by this album.

G-Dragon's single "Who You" was released with the upcoming album's title song, "Black." The second album is going to contain 4 title songs. 6 tracks were released in total on the September 2nd release, with 6 more tracks including "Niliria" being released on the 5th. The offline sales of G-Dragon's album will include two more tracks, including a remixed version of "Black" and will be released on the 13th.
