The King of Ok-pop has graced us with two new music movies on the day he returns together 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 provided one other nuance in his inventive palette. For the Anderson .Paak-featuring Too Unhealthy, it appears all G-Dragon actually needs to do is let free and have enjoyable. I can’t say I blame him!
In some methods, that is the monitor 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 looks like an artist merely enjoying round within the studio. It’s the slightest monitor of the 4 which have been promoted to date, however can also have the widest mainstream enchantment. Most of G-Dragon’s extra idiosyncratic vocal tics are smoothed over, leaving the hook to .Paak. In reality, Too Unhealthy form of sounds as if it might have been a part of an Anderson .Paak album reasonably than the opposite manner round.
Me being an enormous G-Dragon fan, I’m a bit grasping together with his musical time and never overly thinking about him ceding hooks to anybody else (except they occur to be a member of Bigbang, in fact!). Too Unhealthy is boppy and shiny and encompasses a pleasant video, however it 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 you realize it — by no means given the mandatory time to become the funk floorburner it might have been.
