G-Dragon Makes Surprise Appearance In 'REALiTi' Music Video By Canadian Singer Grimes

Canada, meet K-pop. 

Canadian singer Grimes released a music videofor her song "REALiti" on March 8, featuring sites around all of Asia, including Korean pop star G-Dragon. The singer appeared during a few scenes set in Seoul. Most of the video footage, including Grimes' shots with G-Dragon, was shot during Grimes' tour of Asia in March 2013.

G-Dragon, a popular south Korean solo singer and member of Korean idol group Big Bang, appears about two and a half minutes into the music video, dancing to Grimes' music and hanging out backstage with the singer.

In 2013, G-Dragon had shared photos of the two together.

Grimes and YG Entertainment, G-Dragon's agency, were linked after rumors of a collaboration between 2NE1's CL and Grimes.

“REALiTi” was recorded in 2013, but due to a mishap, Grimes’ 2013 album was lost and never released. Grimes has announced that she will not be releasing the song on an album, but released it for fans on March 8.

Grimes left a message on YouTube to her fans regarding the situation with “REALiTi”:

“Since this is no longer gonna be on the album, I’m releasing it as a special thank you to everyone in Singapore, KL, Manila, Jakarta, HK, Shanghai, Beijing, Taipei, Seoul, Osaka, Nagoya and Tokyo who came out to the shows! It was an honor to play with a bunch of amazing bands and travel to places I would never otherwise be able to go

This song was never finished. its a demo from ~ the lost album ~, recorded early 2013. i lost the ableton file, so its not mixed or mastered. i tried to doctor the mp3 into a listenable state, but it was poorly recorded in the first place and never meant to be heard by anyone, so its a bit of a mess haha.

Grimes”

“REALiTi” was released on March 8, 2015.
