    apparently he was supposed to perform at some event that the President would be attending. If that's the case, either the President should not go or they should take Psy off the schedule.

    He did say it was towards the soldiers, he didnt directly say that Psy is anti-America.

    Though I did kinda get caught up in that myself, cuz thats kinda the tone presented. "You Americans are supporting ANTI-American efforts. Shame" is kinda the same thing.

    I went out to some nightspots over a stretch in the summer. I heard that song pop up along with the others, its where I first heard it. I didnt exactly get up and want to do some dancing or anything compared to the other "bangers" that were playing. I guess its more about the video along with the song.

    Perfect, he fits right in with every other self-important musician who thinks America is the worst thing in the world. I expect a joint tour with Lady Gaga and Madonna shortly.

    and yet strangely, there are still people out there who think that illegal immigrants should not be deported when they commit a crime, and then they accuse others of being xenophobic or racist for daring to suggest it. :confused:

    I see this as being similar to Ice-T, "Cop Killer." Both made out of anger and frustration. Doesn't make them right by any stretch of the imagination, but this does not need fake internet rage over. If he apologized then what are we talking about? Anybody reading this news going to protest his concerts? No? Because by tomorrow there will be another TMZ type article that involves children, soldiers, or puppies and you will become enraged with fake anger. Go have a coke and a smile. And remember if this is the only thing you get mad about today, then life is good.

    The whole product actually most closely reminds me of "Walk Like an Egyptian," song with no meaning or real audience that they promoted perfectly with a demographically inclusive video, but catchy and well-composed enough that it stuck around forever.

    yes because that makes it better since he only wants to torture and kill SOME innocent Americans, not all. I suppose if a care package I sent to the armed forces winds up in the hands of one of those torturers, I should be culpable too, as well as my in-laws. :rolleyes:

    Cmon man, that was just a dumb thing to say by PSY. it's just not defensible. and yes that thing with Hammer was brilliant :grin:

    Nothing like generating billions of economic activity over three decades in the most capitalist country in the world to show your anarchism.

    He shouldnt have said it...but he probably said what 80% of the world is thinking.

    Being the self anointed World Police will bring some hate.

    Nothing like making millions of money, and then denouncing other people who do the same thing either :grin:

    Lol, boycott this. The gangnam style has already reached critical mass a long time ago. It was showing signs of slowing down anyway. Pay already made his millions off of it. He doesn't give a **** what people in America says. In the end he's laughing all the way to the bank while everyone here is just sitting here complaining

    Its just notable for the irony, in that in the end, good ol' American style CAPITALISM wins out anyway.

    Reach out for the broadest audience to rake in the broadest cash

    And in that fashion, Ice-T makes "Cop Killer", then laters plays A COP on TV.

    That might be even WORSE than Psy. It'd be like Psy playing an American soldier in Iraq in a TV series.

    And with musicians and artists you never know, some of them are fame and fortune first, form 2nd.
