The King of Okay-pop has graced us with two new music movies on the day he returns along with his first solo album since 2017. We’ve already heard the funky Energy and nostalgic House Candy House, and right this moment’s stark Drama supplied one other nuance in his creative palette. For the Anderson .Paak-featuring Too Dangerous, it appears all G-Dragon actually needs to do is let unfastened and have enjoyable. I can’t say I blame him!
In some methods, that is the observe that the majority encapsulates GD’s solo debut period. From its spoken intro to the enjoyable, colourful verses, there’s an ease and lightness to this track that appears like an artist merely enjoying round within the studio. It’s the slightest observe of the 4 which have been promoted up to now, however might also have the widest mainstream attraction. Most of G-Dragon’s extra idiosyncratic vocal tics are smoothed over, leaving the hook to .Paak. The truth is, Too Dangerous type of sounds as if it may have been a part of an Anderson .Paak album slightly than the opposite means round.
Me being a large G-Dragon fan, I’m a bit grasping along with his musical time and never overly fascinated about him ceding hooks to anybody else (except they occur to be a member of Bigbang, after all!). Too Dangerous is boppy and vibrant and encompasses a pleasant video, but it surely doesn’t really feel like a definitive piece of his discography. At two and a half minutes, the track can also be over earlier than it — by no means given the mandatory time to turn into the funk floorburner it may have been.
