His second studio album “Coup d’Etat,” was released in 2013, featuring collaborations with a wide array of artists, including Diplo, Baauer, Boys Noize, Sky Ferreira, Siriusmo, Zion.T, Lydia Paek, and Jennie. The album went on to win four awards at the 15th Mnet Asian Music Awards: Best Male Solo Artist, Best Music Video for “Coup d’Etat,” Best Dance Performance for “Crooked,” and Artist of the Year. 

His second self-titled EP, “Kwon Ji-yong,” was released in 2014, and saw success in several parts of the world, including the United States, Europe, and China. He embarked on his second world tour, “Act III: M.O.T.T.E,” in 2017, and visited 29 cities across Asia, North America, Europe, and Oceania.
