G-Dragon is really amazing as a lyricist/composer when you think about it.
Whether you're a fan of his music or not, very few self composing idols have managed to have a hit streak as long as his. There are more idols then ever self composing in this generation but very few manage to make songs that leave their fandom and resonate with the public. GD managed to take his group from mid-tier and they never flopped once they made it to the top. Its notoriously hard for boy groups to chart high these days so I wonder if there will ever be another male idol who can achieve even half the success. I'd be really curious to see what kind of music he would write for a modern boy group. Hes contributed a little to babymonster but since big bang in inactive, I'd love to see what he would do with 5th gen.
