T.O.P - Doom Dada. What's It All About?


The new video for T.O.P's new solo single "DOOM DADA", was released a few days ago. It's his first single since 2010's "TURN IT UP".

Being more of a fan of the female voice rather than male vocals, I don't really follow T.O.P or his work with BIGBANG for that matter. Still, I think his new video is quite interesting, even if I'm not so keen on the song.

I say "interesting", but some might say it's downright weird! From the scene with the apes (referencing the 1968 Stanley Kubrick film 2001: A Space Odyssey, substituting the bone for a microphone), to running along with images of skeletons, to walking through the woods with a huge microphone on his back hand in hand with a big-headed baby, it's hard to make sense of what's going on in this video, if it does even make sense at all. The scenes with the big baby also sees T.O.P sporting an oversized bow-tie/ribbon and also a large moustache. Is this video just being weird for the sake of being weird? Any ideas?

The song is written by T.O.P himself, fellow BIGBANG bandmate G-Dragon and producer CHOICE37, and the video is produced by Seo Hyun Seung, who also produced the video for TAEYANG's "RINGA LINGA", though that video bears no resemblance to "DOOM DADA".

Anyway, here's the video:


What do you think of the new song? What is the video all about? Let's hear your thoughts!
