Suga discography

South Korean rapper Suga, also known as Agust D, has released one studio album, two mixtapes, and thirteen singles (including five as a featured artist and three promotional singles). He has collaborated with artists such as Suran, Lee So-ra, Halsey, IU, Max, Juice Wrld, and Psy.

Prior to joining Big Hit Entertainment in 2010, Suga was active as an underground rapper under the name Gloss. One of his earliest known songs is the track "518-062", which he wrote and produced in commemoration of the Gwangju Uprising. Initially signing on with the label as a producer, Suga eventually debuted as a member of BTS in June 2013. His first solo song for the group was "Intro: The Most Beautiful Moment in Life", the rap opening track from their third Korean-language extended play (EP) The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Pt. 1 (2015), released as an animated video trailer on YouTube in April of that year. He has since written and performed four other solo songs in the band's discography: "Intro: Never Mind" from The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Pt. 2 (2015), "First Love" from Wings (2016), "Trivia: Seesaw" from Love Yourself: Answer (2018), and "Interlude: Shadow" from Map of the Soul: 7 (2020).

The rapper continued working on solo music in between band-related commitments, ultimately developing the alter ego "Agust D" (derived from the initials DT, short for his birthplace Daegu Town, and "Suga" spelled backwards) as a medium for releasing music that did not have to take charts or trends into consideration. His first mixtape, the eponymous Agust D (2016), featured an angrier, more aggressive sound and style in comparison to his usual work for BTS. Two singles, "Agust D" and "Give It To Me", were released in promotion of the project, both accompanied by music videos. Initially a free release, the mixtape was made available commercially on download and streaming platforms in 2018. Four years later, the rapper put out his second mixtape D-2 (2020). The project's only single, "Daechwita", premiered the same day as the mixtape's release, also accompanied by a music video. Given a commercial release, the mixtape debuted at number 11 on the Billboard 200 in the United States, becoming the highest-charting release by a Korean solo artist in Billboard chart history at the time. In April 2023, Suga released his debut solo studio album D-Day as Agust D. Described as the third and possibly final installment in his Agust D trilogy of works, the record featured collaborations with BTS bandmate J-Hope, South Korean vocalist IU, Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, and indie rock singer Woosung of The Rose.
