Korean rapper G-Dragon began his career as the leader of the Korean hip-hop group Big Bang. His discography, as a solo artist, began in 2009 and includes three studio albums/extended plays, one collaboration album, three live albums and several other singles/featured singles.
In 2009, during the hiatus of Big Bang, G-Dragon released his debut solo album Heartbreaker, featuring collaborations with several artists, including Teddy of 1TYM, Taeyang, S-Kush, and CL and Dara of 2NE1. Propelled by its lead-single of the same name, an electronic pop song, the album sold over 275,000 copies[1] and went on to win Album of the Year from the 2009 Mnet Asian Music Awards.[2] The second single, "Breathe", manage to chart within the Top 20[3] while his other songs — "The Leaders", "A Boy", "Hello", and "She's Gone" — went on to top various charts upon their release.[4]
Aside from Big Bang, G-Dragon also made several solo appearances. After helping produce Taeyang's debut album, he recorded his own version of the album's lead single "Only Look At Me" (Korean: 나만바라봐; Revised Romanization: Naman Barabwa), titled as the part two version to the song. The single was released digitally. Along with Taeyang and T.O.P, G-Dragon was featured on singer Lexy's song "Super Fly" for her album Rush. In May 2009, he collaborated with the Japanese boy band W-inds. for their single, "Rain Is Fallin'/Hybrid Dream."[5][6]
