NY Times: Catch G-Dragon at Barclays Center While You Can

The breakout K-pop star G-Dragon, of the South Korean boy band BigBang, is a spectacle and a style icon, a chameleon who often makes peak-era Lady Gaga seem staid. Like his visual iconography, G-Dragon’s music — which draws from American hip-hop, R&B and E.D.M. — is like putting ingredients in a blender with no lid. An arena show at Barclays Center on Thursday, July 27, then, provides the perfect large-scale canvas for such a chaotic splatter. And American audiences may not have another chance to engage with one of K-pop’s enduring innovators: G-Dragon is expected to begin his years of compulsory military service soon, a reality reflected in the name of his current international tour: “Act III, M.O.T.T.E.” — or “Moment of Truth the End.”
