Jiyong is the vocalist/rapper of the group, alongside T.O.P. He is a widely-accepted and talented songwriter, having won the ‘Songwriter Award’ in 2007 from MKMF. Jiyong has taken on an active role of composing songs for Big Bang, such as their hit song 'Haru Haru'.
He was originally supposed to debut as a child hip-hop artist in hope of gaining fame, popularity, and success like Lil' Bow Wow and Lil' Romeo did in the states. However he was unable to release an album and was limited to only appearing in YG artists’ albums. On January 2001, Jiyong debuted on the album, “Daehanmingook Hip-Hop Flex” as a rapper. He was later recruited with TaeYang (태양) to act in JinuSean’s MV as their minis, which happened on February of the same year.
Afterward he began to train for his planned debut as the hip-hop group, GDYB, with Tae Yang. During his training, he was already featured on songs and appearing in MVs by Perry, Se7en, JinuSean, Masta Wu, Wheesung, YG Family, Gummy, Swi.T, and Lexy. GDYB was allowed to release 2 songs for YG Family’s second album and appear alongside Se7en for the World Cup, but they, unfortunately, were never able to release an album nor debut. In 2004, both Tae Yang and Jiyong were listed as YG’s fresh, new faces and was scheduled that year. However, those plans were quickly cancelled by Hyun Suk, who had planned on forming a 4-6 member group. It wasn't until 2 years later, in 2006 YG Entertainment Inc. stated that Big Bang was finally able to announce their official debut. All the members of Big Bang are G-Dragon, T.O.P, Taeyang, Seungri, and Daesung.
NILIRIA
G-Dragon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
이것은 힙합, 우리나라 민요에 래핑
얼씨구 절씨구, 잘도 놀아난다
(얼쑤!) 현실로 내가 돌아간다
Ay, we gon' celebrate every freakin' day
입 꼬리 올려, 씩 쪼개면서, 예
어기야 디어차, 자 나를 따라해
잘 안 보이는 내 코빼기, 내 위치는 정상 꼭대기
함부로 건들기엔 난 너무 뜨거워, 고대기
난 가위손, 넌 보자기, 난 전봇대, 넌 소시지
난 도깨비, 넌 꼬맹이, 놀란 니 얼굴 코미디
위험한 내 수위, 남자들은 주의
여자들은 원해, 나의 색다른 품위
사랑을 나눌 땐 항상 내가 우위
난 고민 따윈 안 해, 내 멋대로 I just do it
Wop wop wop wop wop wop, drop it like
Wop wop wop wop wop wop, drop it like
Wop wop wop wop wop wop, drop it like
Wop wop wop wop
난 한류보단 일류, 수질 높은 내 일률
무엇과도 난 비유치 못해, 황금 비율
그게 남다른 이유, 날 자꾸만 찾는 이유
내 눈을 바라봐, 넌 행복해지고, 목소리로 네 귀를 치유
I'm a beast, what's it gonna be? 냈다하면 히트
어렵지 않지, 차트 위 줄 세우는 일
내겐 간단, GD 잖아, 죽이잖아
You don't want none, bitch (what what what what)
Get your freak on, baby
Get your cray on, baby
이건 랩으로 하는 국제적 외교, baby
88년도 8월 18일생
딱 봐도 뭘 가져도 남다른 많은 팔자
Wop wop wop wop wop wop, drop it like
Wop wop wop wop wop wop, drop it like
Wop wop wop wop wop wop, drop it like
Wop wop wop wop wop wop, drop, drop it like
늴리리야, 늴리리야, 내가 돌아간다 (Drop it like)

늴리리야, 늴리리야, 내가 돌아간다 (Drop it like)
