REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, SEOUL -- G-Dragon, a rapper and leader of the K-pop boy group BigBang, has made the U.S. Billboard's list for the 50 most pivotal tracks of electronic dance music in 2013, his management agency said Tuesday.
"Coup d'Etat," the title track in the second full-length album by G-Dragon, was ranked 22nd among the Billboard's "Top 50 Game-Changing EDM Tracks of 2013" announced on Dec. 19, making him the only Korean singer on the list, YG Entertainment said.
The song drew attention from global music fans even before its release in September for being a product of collaboration between the 25-year-old singer and famous American music producers like Diplo and Baauer.
At the top of the list was "Get Lucky" by Daft Punk, followed by Baauer's "Harlem Shake" and "Wake Me Up" by Avicii.
G-Dragon has been steadily keeping his name on Billboard charts this year even though he has not released his album in the United States.
The second album "Coup d'Etat" took the 182nd place on the Billboard 200 album chart upon its release, while the singer was ranked ninth on Billboard's year-end chart for best "world album artists."
