omonatheydidPSY Breaks US iTunes Chart’s Top 20
PSY‘s popularity seems to know no bounds overseas as he adds another achievement to the already impressive list. He ranked on ”US iTunes’ Top 20″ with the infectious number “Gangnam Style.”
The song placed #18 on iTunes, making PSY the first Korean artist to chart on iTunes’ Top 20. He also managed to rank first on US iTunes’ MV Chart with “Gangnam Style” earlier during his promotional activities, proving once again his popularity.
The “Gangnam Syndrome” is still hot and spreading as the views of the music video continue to soar with no less than 130 million views recorded. PSY has been invited to the MTV VMAs in Los Angeles on September 6 and performed his popular horse dance with the ceremony’s host Kevin Hart. He also expressed after being introduced by Kevin Hart, “I’ve been wanting to stand on this stage and speak in Korean just once. It’s awesome right?”
Meanwhile, PSY signed an exclusive contract with Island Records, a record label of Universal Music.

PSY Featured on People Magazine, Rolling Stone and Mashable
Your favorite chic oppa PSY was featured on People Magazine‘s website. People Magazine published an article titled, “Five things you should know about PSY,” covering his real name and his prestigious education in the US, to dubbing him the next pop sensation in America.
The article also sums up PSY’s recent achievements, from his topping of YouTube’s MV chart, to the contract he signed with Scooter Braun‘s agency. Check out the link below to test your knowledge on PSY.
Mashable published an infographic report on PSY’s rising popularity, “Gangnam Style! The Anatomy of a Viral Sensation.”
It says, “But while “Gangnam Style” does possess an undeniable odd appeal, most people probably aren’t familiar with the video beyond its visceral assault on the ears and eyes. This infographic is here to help. Put together by the British design firm Neo Mammalian Studios, it breaks down the ‘Gangnam Style’ phenomenon and the video’s social reach.”
Music magazine Rolling Stone made PSY “The Winner of the Week” on their “On The Charts” section. With a few inadequacies here and there, Rolling Stone also goes on to compare “Gangnam Style”‘s virality to Rebecca Black‘s “Friday,” with a deeper meaning of “a satire of wealthy Seoul culture.”
Check out the article and let us know what you think of it!

Date: 2012-09-10 07:31 pm (UTC)There are people over at AKP downplaying this, attributing him to hype akin to Rebecca Black's rather than true success. Which is true to an extent but this is father than where most Kpop artists have gone so I'd say its a triumph nonetheless. Besides, most of the news are from American sources so I'm ruling out the cancer that is Korean sensationalism.
