Yeah, I guess I would rather here Psy do an album of K-Pop Smiths.

Gentleman has been cleaning up at the weekly music show performance charts in Korea despite Psy not being around to perform the song. This absurd situation must have rankled the hearts of TV music show content programmers... not sure this was the best solution though:

South Korean rapper PSY has been met with boos and small firework explosions during his performance at the Stadio Olimpico ahead of the Italian Cup final and derby between Roma and Lazio.
Organizers responded by raising the volume during PSY's performance of his hit, ''Gangnam Style.''
The rapper appeared embarrassed but told fans afterward in Italian, ''I love Italy.''
It was unclear if the boos were of a racist nature, although fans for both clubs have come under attack this season for racist chanting.

Not an impostor, a professional Psy impersonator!

Bought one of these for a friend tonight:

$9.99, half-price. It dances, I think. Strange--it's almost like they wanted them off the shelf and out of the store.
(Speaking as someone who lived through the K-Tel epoch, I'm not sure there's been anyone the past 25 years as purely and as definitively K-Tel as PSY. I say that with the deepest admiration. Me to the cashier: "This is supposed to be a joke gift...please don't make fun of me." She didn't laugh.)

Is PSY still a thing?
― DDD, Wednesday, 15 January 2014 10:24 (ten years ago) link
he's currently prominently featured in animated form in performing "Gangnam Style" in the trailer for the kids' movie The Nut Job -- i kinda raised my eyebrow at first like 'wow they really didn't anticipate that being considered old by the time the movie comes out' but apparently it's the first big expensive South Korean animated feature being geared toward America, so it makes sense they'd wanna involve him. still, you'd think they'd have PSY do a new song for it or something.
― some dude, Wednesday, 15 January 2014 11:38 (ten years ago) link
Even if PSY did a new song it would either A) be a Gangnam Style ripoff to capitalize on his public persona (like Gentleman) or B) a song that's different from GS and is thus met with a lukewarm response (or gets panned).
PSY is pretty much the Chubby Checker of the 21st century

Guess what guy it's 2014 and Psy has already done other songs you should check if your thesis is correct

has there been a bunch of non-"Gentleman" singles just for the K-pop market since "Gangnam Style"?

So does that mean we can look forward to Psy releasing his own "Chequered!" a few years down the road? He could even call it "Psy-Chedelic!".
― MarkoP, Wednesday, 15 January 2014 17:16 (ten years ago) link
I could see him doing a team-up album like Chubby Checker & Bobby Rydell, but I'm not sure who's the 21st century equivalent of Bobby Rydell.
― Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 15 January 2014 17:29 (ten years ago) link

No- With a new release right around the corner he's been going around almost disowning Gentleman, which is a bit weird to me. Yeah it's pretty similar to GS but it's basically what he's been doing for the past four years in Korea. I can understand it if he really did wanted to do something different now, though - we'll see soon enough.
― abcfsk, Wednesday, 15 January 2014 17:33 (ten years ago) link
Sorry for not watching the latest PSY news on the K-POP channel, but as shown by somedude's post about PSY appearing in The Nut Job, his international reputation seems to be based on That One Song - a Checker-esque novelty-hit legacy that will probably haunt him forever, despite his efforts to produce new and interesting music (if only for the K-Pop market)
Anticipating the Europe-only release of "Psy-Chedelic!" though. (I actually enjoyed "Chequered!")
― DDD, Wednesday, 15 January 2014 17:40 (ten years ago) link
I'm weirded out by how he's been disowning Gentlemen too, which I like better than Gangnam Style.

The new album has a collaboration with Snoop Dogg and is supposed to be coming out late February/early March.
