양현석은 이날 YG의 음악 색깔을 소개하던 도중 “이 자리에서 처음 밝히는데, 비욘세의 음반에도 참여했던 디플로가 얼마 전 한국에 와 지드래곤과 탑을 만나 자신이 만든 곡들을 많이 주고 갔다”라며 “그러면서 디플로는 지드래곤과 탑에게 피처링을 부탁했고, 이에 디플로의 새 음반에 지드래곤과 탑의 목소리도 담길 것”이라고 전했다.

Rough Translations: On this day, while Yang Hyun Suk was introducing YG’s music, he said, “This is the first time this is being said, a while back, Diplo, who contributed to Beyonce’s album, visited Korea and met with G-Dragon and TOP, and presented many of the songs he made. Diplo requested for G-Dragon and TOP to feature in his album, so G-Dragon and TOP’s voice will be heard in DIPLO’s new album.

[News] YG Entertainment and Avex Japan form YGEX


What is YGEX?
A birth of a record label dedicated exclusively to YG FAMILY!

The name is "YGEX", attributing to the collaboration of YG FAMILY "YG" with AVEX "EX".
"EX" also inspired by words like "EXPERIENCE" and "EXCLUSIVE", carries connotations of it being the one and only label you can experience YG FAMILY.

The collaboration between YG, not bound to just Asia now spreading as a worldwide trend "YG POP", and AVEX who has always innovated and led the Japanese music scene, is definitely a match up bound to create a new and unpredictable form of entertainment.
