On June 1, BIGBANG released the latest single album, "A," which contains the tracks "Bang Bang Bang" and "We Like 2 Party." The singles, which follow the release of "Loser" and "Bae Bae," ranked in first and second place on almost all of the Korean real-time charts. While ranking on Korean real time charts is a major accomplishment, "Bang Bang Bang" also debuted as one of the top 100 songs on iTunes in the United States.

At the time of print, "Bang Bang Bang" ranked 58th out of 100 songs listed on U.S. iTunes. The single was ranked alongside popular songs from artists includingTaylor Swift, Rihanna, and 50 Cent. 

"Bang Bang Bang" also ranked in the top 10 on the U.S. iTunes hip-hop chart. 

These accomplishments hold significance as June 1 was a solid release date for American music. On the hip-hop chart, "Bang Bang Bang" ranked higher than the latest singles from the critically acclaimed album, "AT.LONG.LAST.A$AP" from A$AP Rocky, which was released on May 26.  

"Bang Bang Bang" incorporates elements of hip-hop, trap, K-pop and electronic dance. The music video for the track as also released on June 1, received more than 2 million views on YouTube. YG Entertainment will release the music video for "We Like 2 Party" on June 5.

[?????=??? ??] Anybody would be dumbfounded to current situation on music charts.

BIGBANG swept music charts once again with new release “BANG BANG BANG” and “WE LIKE 2 PARTY”. As “LOSER” and “BAE BAE” released last month are still in top places on charts, BIGBANG now has four songs in top 10. BIGBANG releases new songs until September this year, so you may see only BIGBANG songs in the top 20 of music charts by then.

BIGBANG released their second album “A” of “MADE SERIES”, on the 2nd of June. Two new songs “BANG BANG BANG” and “WE LIKE 2 PARTY” took the No.1 and No.2 on the real-time chart of nine music-streaming websites only naturally, upon their release. 

As already known, “BANG BANG BANG” is a cool song that goes well with summer, which is as exciting as “FANTASTIC BABY”. Its dynamic and exciting feel creates a perfect harmony with the summer season, so the song is expected to stay in top places on charts until the end of this summer. It may be the song you can hear around the clock near beach.

TAEYANG’s sophisticated vocal and T.O.P’s powerful rap sound captivating. A kaleidoscopic development within the song just like that of “FANTASTIC BABY” also sounds very interesting.

“WE LIKE 2 PARTY” is a song of a sophisticated melody line like that of a Western pop song, which is perfectly sung by BIGBANG’s vocalists. Easy vocal of DAESUNG and SEUNGRI whose skills have further evolved, sounds comfortable. As the title itself tells, it is a typical party song that delivers young BIGBANG’s energy directly to listeners.

It seems that BIGBANG’s strategy is working once again. Success of the team’s strategy to release new songs every month to make the year 2015 the year of BIGBANG, is just around the corner.
