'Tis the Season...of YG's Domination? Big Bang, 2NE1, Akdong Musician, Lee Hi, and More

YG Entertainment's big guns are all aiming for an end of the year domination of the music scene.

Big Bang is taking over the fall and winter music charts with each individual members releasing a solo single. Seungri, G-Dragon, and Taeyang have consecutively dominated the charts, and TOP recently announced that his single will drop this week. Every single song by Big Bang members has reached the top of the charts, and there is high anticipation for TOP's upcoming solo single as well.

2NE1 is also releasing their single in a few weeks and will showcase the new single on Mnet Asia Music Awards. When this single reaches the top spot, it will be their third number one single of 2013.

Big Bang and 2NE1 are the two groups that represent YG. G-Dragon has risen to become an international icon featured in European and American media, while Taeyang has dominated the Asian charts with his new single, "Ringa Linga", which was written by none other than his best friend, G-Dragon.

2NE1 started the domination early when they released the single "Falling in Love" in July and "Do You Love Me" in August. Both songs were instant hits. Although it's still under wraps, the anticipation for 2NE1's upcoming album and their trend-setting, genre-crossover style is at an all-time high. 

YG Entertainment's domination does not end there. After the big guns of Big Bang and 2NE1 set the stage, the youngsters Akdong Musician, Lee Hi, and WINNER will enter the music scene to try to continue the domination. All three of them are currently working hard on their own albums. WINNER is already highly popular due to the survival program WIN, and their debut stage is only about a month away. Lee Hi, the monster rookie from last year, will try to dominate again with her soulful voice. Akdong Musician already topped the charts multiple times without a single media appearance, so their upcoming album and debut stage is also very highly anticipated.

YG's other big name artists, namely Epik High and PSY, are yet undetermined as to when they will release a new album, but if they release their albums in the spring or early summer, the fans will be seeing YG dominate the music scene for almost a whole year. For now, the rush of YG artists in the order of Big Bang, 2NE1, WINNER, Lee Hi, and Akdong Musician will satisfy all music lovers' thirst for YG's brand of unique and trendy pop.
