[NEWS] GD&TOP to perform “Don’t Go Home” on Inkigayo this Sunday (26/01/2011)

Although GD&TOP’s “Don’t Go Home” failed to pass its re-evaluation with MBC after it was banned earlier this month, YG Entertainment assured fans that they could still enjoy the song through SBS and KBS.

Representatives of YG Entertainment spoke with Star News on January 26th and revealed, “‘Don’t Go Home,’ a track from their new album released last month, was banned from public broadcast for its lyrics. We didn’t believe that there was anything wrong with the lyrics so we re-submitted the song for another evaluation without making any changes.”

They continued, “However, the song did not pass the re-evaluation. Since it was already accepted by SBS and KBS on the first review, fans can look forward to hearing ‘Don’t Go Home’ on those two channels.”

GD&TOP will be performing “Don’t Go Home” for the first time on the January 30th episode of SBS’s “Inkigayo“.

[NEWS] G-Dragon Reveals Details On Big Bang’s Comeback Album (27/01/2011):

Big Bang’s leader, G-Dragon, dropped additional details about the group’s first album in nearly two years and three months, and asked fans to anticipate great changes as well as variety in their work.

In a recent interview with Star News, he revealed that all of their songs were done recording and that the album was in its finalization stages. The singer continued:

“The members of Big Bang have been working on the album very consistently. The overall style of the album is geared towards being public friendly with comfortable music that literally anyone can follow along to.”

I think Big Bang will be able to achieve great things this year due to some of the big changes that have been going on. It’s not only the Big Bang members themselves who have changed – the internal composing staff we’ve been working with has also been completely switched up. Consequently, there will be a lot more collaborations with foreign composers.

But one of the foreign composers isn’t Will.I.Am, who’s currently working with 2NE1 for their U.S. advancement. They’re musicians beyond what anyone’s guess right now. You’ll all be surprised once you listen later, so please look forward to a lot more variety to Big Bang’s image.“

As revealed earlier, the group’s comeback album will not feature any solo or duet tracks, and consists of songs with all five members. The album is scheduled for release on February 24th.
