A-yo, finally! (Is this what you’ve been waiting for?)
Brand new GD, yea! (I’m all by myself, but it’s all good)
You’re my heartbreaker~ (DJ and YG!)
(Eh, eh, eh, eh) Let me take this song here

I don’t give in no matter what
I’m still useful, I haven’t died yet
Only you caused this damaged body, broken dreams, missing heart
If it’s for you, this one body will fly for;
It will run to where you are
But still you say to me, ‘goodbye, goodbye’

You say you don’t like me, what’s the reason why?
Your annoyed expression that gives everything away makes me sad
But even if I still like you and asked you for a chance
I don’t like the cold look in your eyes when you turn away…

(No, no)

[Chorus]
Yo ma heart heart heart heart heart breaker
What did I do wrong?
Yo ma heart heart heart heart heart breaker
No way, no way

Even if you say you’ll leave me
(hey), I won’t be able to acknowledge it (hey)

Let’s see how well you live (without me)
(hey) (Lovers and haters)
This is-this is-tiresome; unsteady
You think lowly of my love?
No way~

Everyday the same question
You say that I have changed
Will you shut your hateful mouth?
Speak after you know who you’re talking to
I’m now
out of control, continually all alone
In that place is where it’s ‘goodbye, goodbye’

You say you don’t like me, what’s the reason why?
The anger in your voice that gives everything away makes me sad
But even if I still like you and asked you for a chance
I hate the cold smile you have when you turn away…

(No, no)

[Repeat Chorus]

(Talk to me girl) I’ll still still be there (inside your turned-off cellphone)
I’ll still still be there (by the mailbox in front of your house)
I’ll still be like that (even if you say we’re strangers)
I will still be there (Whoa, whoa~)

The words, “let’s be together forever,” were only a moment’s sweetness
Why do you act as if nothing’s wrong
Hey, when I’m hurting this much

Yo ma heart heart heart heart heart breaker
What did I do wrong?
Yo ma heart heart heart heart heart breaker
No way, no way

Yo ma heart heart~ (hey) breaker
Yo ma heart heart~ (hey) breaker breaker
H.E.A.R.T. breaker (baby) no way

I’m out.

Hello
This is YG Entertainment

Big Bang’s Taeyang will be coming out with [Where U At] after 1 year & 5 months since his last solo release.

Taeyang, who left a strong impression on audiences & critics alike with his first solo mini-album [HOT], with hit singles including “Look Only At Me” & “Prayer,” received recognition as the famous idol group, Big Bang’s lead singer, as well as a solo artist through his mini-album.

This Digital Single, “Where U At” was composed & written by Teddy, who brought sensation to the music industry with songs the songs he produced such as “Look Only At Me” & “Prayer” from last year, to this years’ “Lollipop,” 2NE1’s “Fire” & “I Don’t Care.”

The lyrics for “Where U At” were written in consideration of 22-year-old Taeyang, who has never had a girlfriend. The touchy story is reflective of Taeyang’s situation, imagining his future girlfriend who’s out there somewhere.

Much to expect from Taeyang as to what type of style & music he’s going to promote with his activities beginning with “Where U At” to his official album, so please take interest & give support.

Thank you.

DIGITAL SINGLE WILL BE RELEASED on OCTOBER 15th, 11:00AM online.

“Us, Forever.”

this just in… DJ Tukutz from Epik High is getting married & will enlist for military service soon after.

Tukutz (28), whose real name is Kim JungSik, has decided to ask his girlfriend of 10 years, for her hand in marriage.

Soon after, he will be enlisting for military service on October 15th.

He posted the news on Epik High’s official site today.

When asked to comment, Epik High’s side explained that Tukutz’ enlistment date came too sudden, hence the rush for him to do a wedding. The plan was to have Tablo & Kang HyeJung marry first, but Tukutz’ wedding date has been pushed forward due to his military enlistment.

The picture above was taken from Tablo’s blog on MapTheSoul.com titled, “3.”

“우린, 영원. 사랑해 정식아 – Us, forever. Love you, JungSik ah”

—-
3, as in 3 members of Epik High.

personally, i am moved by how powerful such short & simple words have about the entire ordeal. & it couldn’t have been a better picture to represent the LOVE.

Epik High has been a great foundation for my love of korean music, & music in general. they were one of the 1st groups i really got into & without their influence on me, i don’t think i would love hip-hop music as much as i do now.

I was fortunate enough to attend one of their MapTheSoul Concerts (the one in Los Angeles) & it still remains THE BEST concert i’ve ever been to. although i wasn’t in the front, just being in that room full of people in love with music – my eyes & ears could not have asked for more.

although i am sad that funnyman Tukutz will be going away for 2 years, the happier note is that he is marrying the love of his life. for that, we should be happy.

Tablo, the genius with words, couldn’t have captured the essence better in 2 words. “Us, forever.”

Epik High will still be around to give us joy in the music they make & will continue to make. & best believe, they’ll keep us posted on the exciting stuff that’s to come: Tukutz’ wedding, his goodbyes, Tablo’s wedding, & the next High Skool kid (Tablo’s baby).

so thanks Epik High. you’ve given me a lot & i feel that love you share. good luck, & we’ll always be here to support you. waiting…

-melly.

06. Gossip Man (Feat. 김건모)

G-Dragon – Heartbreaker 1st Solo Album

06. Gossip Man (Feat. 김건모)

Composers: G-Dragon + Teddy | Lyrics: G-Dragon | Arrangements: Teddy
Translated by: Ladykwonn + gdluvzmc @ VIPtranslators

-note: ITALICS are sung in English

[GD] Emergency
Emergency
Emergency
E-mer-gen-cy

[Chorus - GD + 김건모]
Hey man~ What’s the topic of today’s gossip again?
Not a single day of silence – Why~ Why (do) you~
Everybody, attention please
I am Gossip Man

[GD] (Whassup) Ladies and gentlemen, ho!
They call me Gossip Man, you know

People who know enough all know
The truth is not what it seems
Today, (they) said a girl threw water in my face at a café
[T/N: he made a splashing water sound. lol @ the sound effects]
Yesterday, (they) said some guy kicked me hard with his foot in an alley (ow) [T/N: "they" being the tabloids/paparazzi]

Who, me? No, lie
I hear all the rumors about me
The numerous eyes (at me) are frightening
This much I know, but I laugh it off (haha)
In the past, I’ve cried many times
More and more, (their) mouths continue to inflate
With much thought, I speak less and less
World, give me back my life

“Because you’re cool, cool”
Yes I am cool, cool

It may be enjoyable, and  it could be fun as well
Yeah
~ If the bored world is solely entertained from knowing about my life,
Say~ Superman, Batman, like (them, I sign) X.O.~ Gossip Man

[T/N: "X.O." is shorthand in writing, "with love." essentially, what the hook is saying is: because people think he's cool & everyone finds his life so entertaining (emphasis on "himself," as if to say "they" tend to pick on him), like Superman/Batman, he's become "Gossip Man." genius.]

[Repeat Chorus]

[GD] In school, at the company, at the office, or even at home
Even the TV, CD, radio, MP3, hot news, magazine
They’re waiting for something, bored as usual
Now, the prepared subject of conversation for today is coming

As the day begins, their pens are quickly put to work
Checking out the current search ranking,
The many netizens’ fingers are overworked
The situation is beyond serious (yes)
Our nation is a “hot pot”
In a blink of an eye, everything will cool down
Popular trend? Do your thang
Conduct? Zero, (I) do my thang

[T/N:  here, he points out (more like makes fun of) how something little gets blown out of proportions, sparking major controversy/gossip among netizens, but eventually cools off. then he says to do your own thing & if questioned about his conduct/behavior, his answer is zero. he does his own thing/ steps out of line]

“Because you’re cool, cool”
Yes I am cool, cool

It may be enjoyable, and  it could be fun as well
Yeah
~ If the tough world is entertained by just my only self,
Say~ Superman, Batman, like (them, I sign) X.O.~ Gossip Man

[Repeat Chorus]

[김건모] What’s with all the words? [T/N: words/talk/gossip]
What the hell are you so curious about?
It’s their own life (ey)
Unnecessary controversy (ey)
Don’t let it matter and stand up
Go on boy, let him go~~

[Repeat Chorus]

[GD] Alright, I’m done yo
What’s my name?
Say Gossip Man
(Haha) You know what it is

Everybody, attention please
I am Gossip Man

-note: ITALICS are sung in English

[Johan] Yeah~ What’s up man
Yeah, it feels good to be back
You know, I wanna give you something that you can chill with this time (So in love with you)
We got something special here
It’s called “So In Love, Part 2″ (oh~)
And I got my boy G-Dragon
Yeah, we gonna show what time it is (I am so in love, so in love with you)

[Johan] I meet the morning with your fragrant aroma
And start the day with a soft kiss
We gaze at each other while having our morning coffee
It can’t get better than this (Ooh yeah)
We said our goodbyes a little while ago
But still I miss you, and so I call you
I see you over and over again; why am I like this?
I don’t want to hide it because I love you

[Chorus] Saying “I love you” cannot fully express it all
What do I do? I can’t stop smiling
Am I allowed to be this happy?
I am so in love, so in love with you

[GD] (Lady, listen) Yo, yo
People look at me and ask me why I always smile the way I do (haha)
Why I look so giddy and happy (oh)
It’s probably because I’ve fallen in love
Like a little kid, I’m so excited (yeah)
This moment is sweet like cotton candy
I wish it’d last forever; you’re outstanding like the night sky
You shine like a star, you’re my own big star
That radiant smile today is so fly, fly

[Johan] Your smiling face is like that of an angel
And if I were to be together with you, it’d be heaven
Whoever sees my appearance these days would think I’d look like a fool (mm, yea)
If I’m with you, I don’t mind what we do
If you want, I’ll even give you the stars in the sky
I’m okay with giving you my everything
I won’t regret it because I love you (Check this out)

[Repeat Chorus]

[GD] Yeah, baby boo (so sweet)
I’m so addicted, hmmm … haha (Let’s go)

Together we ride in a fancy car
There are no set rules, let’s just go wherever (haha)
The whole world is blessing us
Oh word, they’re rejoicing for us
These two hands you’re holding, don’t ever let go
Let’s always trust each other and fill each other up
Happiness, sadness – let’s share it all together, I say
I love you forever girl

[Repeat Chorus]

[Johan] Yeah, at this time, I wanna give thanks to all the brothers that helped me out with this album
You know, like uh, Big Bang, you know, Taeyang and G-Dragon
My boy DJ Fractal (ah yea), my boy … Mr. YG … Lena Park …
My big brother Sam Lee, my boy Nako … KM Music and the base ninja Andre Barry … Guitar Hyung
My boys No Brain, and all my friends and family …
This was a Soul Family Production
