The worldwide sensation took to the stage in 2002 -- before practically anyone outside Korea had heard of him -- to protest against 32,000 American troops who were stationed on the Korean Peninsula. Psy held a miniature U.S. tank over his head and then smashed it on the ground to prompt a roar of applause from the crowd. [B]When a South Korean missionary was killed in Iraq two years later, Psy performed alongside other Korean artists at an anti-American protest concert. That’s when he rapped the song “Dear American,” whose lyrics mention killing U.S. soldiers and civilians: [QUOTE]“Kill those f---ing Yankees who have been torturing Iraqi captives. "Kill those f---ing Yankees who ordered them to torture. "Kill their daughters, mothers, daughters-in-law and fathers. "Kill them all slowly and painfully.”[/QUOTE][/B] The song was originally done by N.EX.T, but Psy was said to have helped with the performance of the song at the 2004 concert. The Korean lyrics and English translation were posted on CNN’s iReport a couple of months ago, and they were recently picked up by Mediaite and Twitchy. Outrage directed at the Korean pop star has spread throughout the U.S. As a result, BuzzFeed reported, a petition is being posted on the White House’s “We The People” page asking U.S. President Barack Obama to rescind Psy’s invitation to the "Christmas in Washington" concert scheduled for the National Building Museum in Washington Sunday. All the U.S. dollars he’s been raking in of late may have had something to do with Psy's apology Friday.[/QUOTE] the song: [URL]https://soundcloud.com/djhighway/n-ex-t-5-cd1-06-dear-american[/URL] His Apology: [URL]http://www.complex.com/music/2012/12/psy-apologizes-for-inflamatory-dear-american-lyrics[/URL] [QUOTE]"As a proud South Korean who was educated in the United States and lived there for a very significant part of my life, I understand the sacrifices American servicemen and women have made to protect freedom and democracy in my country and around the world. The song I featured on in question from eight years ago -- was part of a deeply emotional reaction to the war in Iraq and the killing of two Korean schoolgirls that was part of the overall antiwar sentiment shared by others around the world at that time. While I’m grateful for the freedom to express one's self, I’ve learned there are limits to what language is appropriate and I’m deeply sorry for how these lyrics could be interpreted. I will forever be sorry for any pain I have caused by those words. I have been honored to perform in front of American soldiers in recent months -- including an appearance on the Jay Leno show specifically for them -- and I hope they and all Americans can accept my apology. While it’s important that we express our opinions, I deeply regret the inflammatory and inappropriate language I used to do so. In my music, I try to give people a release, a reason to smile. I have learned that thru music, our universal language we can all come together as a culture of humanity and I hope that you will accept my apology."[/QUOTE]
Cool
This was almost a decade ago, why is it in issue now?
[QUOTE=FullStreak12;38744636]This was almost a decade ago, why is it in issue now?[/QUOTE] because he's a big pop star in america still. the country that he sang about murdering.
[QUOTE=FullStreak12;38744636]This was almost a decade ago, why is it in issue now?[/QUOTE] Because now that he is famous its news.
[QUOTE=FullStreak12;38744636]This was almost a decade ago, why is it in issue now?[/QUOTE] With how easily most Americans can get offended, it's no surprise this is an issue...
As an American I like that song better then Gangnam Style.
It sounds like American Rock which is sort of neat. This guy clearly has tried multiple genres.
Erm, those lyrics are a little too extreme
At least he apologized

"Kill all fuckin yankee"
[QUOTE=Bradyns;38744856]Though I don't condone reciprocal violence, it's important to raise awareness of things like that (torturing and inhumane treatment of prisoners/civilians)..[/QUOTE] Still, those lyrics are pretty violent. Still, PSY is a cool dude, but that doesn't seem nice to say in a song.
Nearly a decade ago and he admitted the fact that he was caught up in the sentiment and what he said was crass and stupid. I don't see the problem.
Pretty good song other than the genocide stuff
Those lyrics would also work for a country song
He's also talked about how awkward he feels representing the country because of the kind of artist he was: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eK7Lk88bNzU&feature=player_detailpage#t=101s[/url]
[QUOTE=Mr. N;38744885]Nearly a decade ago and he admitted the fact that he was caught up in the sentiment and what he said was crass and stupid. I don't see the problem.[/QUOTE] It's better than other artists who defend their music to the ends of the earth, even if they have the most deplorable lyrics.
[QUOTE=Rocko's;38744884]Still, those lyrics are pretty violent. Still, PSY is a cool dude, but that doesn't seem nice to say in a song.[/QUOTE] You should listen to what kinds of shit other certain artists say in their songs. There's so much worse shit out there, I can't be angry at Psy. That song is small time compared to others.

Wow. That song is Rogue Hunters from Guilty Gear XX (the Korean version, which has a different soundtrack) with some minor tweaks. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-oySmMrQ6k[/media] Suppose it makes sense, since N.EX.T did the soundtrack for it.
[QUOTE=Alcoholocaust;38744929] [fucking disgusting lyrics about cutting a woman's head off and masturbating with it] [/QUOTE] what the fuck
[QUOTE=Alcoholocaust;38744929]Not really dude.. that guy's song sounds like a childrens song compared to this.[/QUOTE] Shit, if that gets out it might put a damper on the chances of cannibal corpse appearing in the Christmas in Washington concert.
[QUOTE=Alcoholocaust;38744929]Not really dude.. that guy's song sounds like a childrens song compared to this.[/QUOTE] Cannibal Corpse is a gimmick tho
[QUOTE=goldenbuttocks;38744950] [quote=Alcoholocaust][fucking disgusting lyrics about cutting a little girl's head off and masturbating with it][/quote]what the fuck[/QUOTE] Fix'd that for you. What im trying to tell is that Psy's song shouldnt really be taken that serious. Since theres worser shit.
[QUOTE=Mr. N;38744885]Nearly a decade ago and he admitted the fact that he was caught up in the sentiment and what he said was crass and stupid.

Videogames can be made about killing Cubans, Russians, and whomever else, but this guy can't make a song about it? He didn't kill anyone, so why not?
[QUOTE=Alcoholocaust;38744973]Fix'd that for you. What im trying to tell is that Psy's song shouldnt really be taken that serious. Since theres worser shit.[/QUOTE] um yes it should i mean if a guy on facepunch posted the exact same thing he'd be called insane
its cannibal corpse (who are great live). they make their lyrics to shock and are overly gory on purpose. they dont actually mean any of it psy apparently meant his lyrics
