Popular band Big Bang, recently traveled to New York to film music videos in support of their upcoming mini-album ‘ALIVE‘. In fact, footage from their time in New York was recently revealed in the music video for their new song, “Blue“.
Though they were filming on an extremely tight schedule, Big Bang took time to talk with allkpop about their new album, style, world tour, and provide some very witty responses to oft-asked questions.
According to Taeyang, “we laid hip-hop as the foundation for the overall sound of the album.” He also explains more about the direction Big Bang took with the tracks on this album.
You can also find out what the boys would be doing if they weren’t singers, their fashion inspirations, and unique message to junior singers. The members manage to be insightful, informative, and hilarious all at the same time.



In addition to the almost daily song releases, commercials, and music videos, fans can look forward to six title track promotions of their ALIVE album, an appearance on ‘Running Man‘, as well as the ‘BIGBANG ALIVE WORLD TOUR 2012‘, starting with performances at the ’Big Show‘ concert in Seoul on March 2nd through the 3rd.

Top looked so creepy smiling to himself at the back haha. I want his shades though. And Taeyang's bandanna is extra lulzy when he's just standing there.

Seungri comment about headphones was best i need a club banger
I couldn't stop laughing when Taeyang mentioned Skrillex because I kept thinking about GD's hair. And it's so weird when someone refers to Sonny as ~new~

It was seriously cold when they were here. They should've come on a day like today 60 in Feb. They just missed the good weather.

Been told this nearly every release. Not getting my hopes up.

if YG/BB were only aware of all the shit they used to get from akp back in the day, lol this interview would've never happened. but anyway, taeyang needs to get rid of that ridiculous bandana asap, idk what the stylists were thinking. lmfao TOP i love u<33 and GD looked so cute even though i hate his hair

I think they don't care tbh since they get overseas promotion. I still remember the shade that YG threw at allkpop after the whole "YG killed Se7en's kpop career" article came out. Now they have deals with soompi and allkpop.

ooo what shade? dont remember hearing heard about that :o

well it was after Se7en dropped his US company Red Queen Media.They got pressed and contacted allkpop and said shit like "we were ready to make Se7en big" and blah blah so allkpop went ahead and did articles on YG killing Se7en's career(that was the exact title too) and sending him off to the army. Korean media went batshit and starting bashing on YG. YG got pissed and told fans and the media that RQM and allkpop were lying and that Se7en was making a comeback. It was a big controversy 3 years ago.

ooh i never heard about that. i guess YG moved on and went with akp anyway since they have the biggest intl crowd

I think you can find more articles about that under Se7en's tag but yea I don't think YG cares anymore since they get something out of it now. The last time they used allkpop was for Se7en's US promotion so I guess they're cool again.

I'm pretty sure they're aware of it, but I don't think they're so petty as to deny akp the way they boycotted KBS. /shrugs

I'm more amused that akp bothered to do this despite being infamously anti-YG.

i too think they are aware. im sure someone would've told YG by now that the founder of akp hates BB, and because of that, the site used to write so much ugly shit abt BB back in the day.
but even if YG isn't aware, there's also all that happened between akp and YG after se7en's american debut... doubt they would've forgotten about that.

so basically, YG is only choosing to deal with akp because they know that it's the 2nd best way to reach out to international fans.

I don't believe there wasn't an indoor location for them to record this interview. I was feeling cold just watching them fidget through this interview.
