Global Korean superstar and multi-hyphenate, G-DRAGON, makes his long awaited return with a brand new single, “POWER”, released yesterday with Galaxy Corporation and leading independent record label, EMPIRE. A high energy, infectious K-pop record, the electrifying track showcases G-DRAGON’s undeniable vocals slicing through infectious beats. “”POWER” manifests the essence of music,” says G-DRAGON.

Co-written by Tommy “TB Hits” Brown, Theron Thomas, Steven Franks, and G-DRAGON, “POWER” marks his first solo record since his 2017 self-titled EP, ‘KWON JI YONG’. That EP had soared to the top of the the Billboard World Albums chart and Japan’s Oricon digital chart, making him the first Korean artist to achieve this remarkable feat.

“G-DRAGON is a cultural force that has laid the foundation for K-Pop’s global dominance,” says Ghazi – Founder/CEO of EMPIRE. “This partnership reinforces our mission at EMPIRE to work alongside artists that will shape the future of global music.”
