Oh, God Damn it: That Kid from the "Gangnam Style" Video is Making Music Now

He's going by "Little Psy," because duh.

Just as Lil Poopy falls, another absurd child rapper pops up and replaces him. The Associated Press reports that the kid from the beginning of the "Gangnam Style" video is making a run for it as a solo artist. The boy is named Hwang Min-woo, and will be performing under the name "Little Psy." He performed at a press conference in Korea, and I'm sure it was ridiculously adorable and only moderately exploitative.

Let's do some math, because there's really nothing more to report here. Little Psy is seven years old. Regular Psy is 35, meaning he is five times older than Little Psy. "Gangnam Style" has nearly 1.4 billion views on YouTube, which means that some record executive probably thinks that "Little Gangnam Style" (as Little Psy's first psyngle will inevitably be called) will garner 28 million YouTube views, because 28 million is five times less than 1.4 billion, and that is how record executives think. We wish Little Psy luck on his way to K-Pop domination.
