1. [+5,709, -44] He did overextend himself after Gangnam Style became a big hit and all of the pressure leading up to Gentleman...

2. [+4,935, -59] I like songs like Champion better

3. [+3,726, -58] As long as he knows.. ã… .ã…  Please come back to the Psy we know now..

4. [+3,368, -46] Just think of it comfortably and make music we can all enjoy. Something fun like Bird and Celebrity

5. [+2,786, -56] Gangnam Style is addictive no matter how many times I listen to it!

6. [+401, -15] There was nothing he could do about it. Gangnam Style did too well and the pressure built up to an immense level... Gentleman may seem like a joke but it was a decent song. I hope we'll hear real Psy style music this time. It doesn't have to do as well as Gangnam, as long as he sticks to his style!

7. [+355, -27] People may say Gentleman didn't live up to expectations but it got into the top 5 or 4 on the Billboard in its first week and it currently has 600 million views on YouTube. For a Korean artist, those stats are amazing.

8. [+320, -10] Yeah, don't worry too much about the pressure.

[Girls'Generation]

there's no pressure. no one has cared about psy for a while now.

 

and i like that he admits gentleman was trash.

[kimchi]

Hopefully he doesn't release GS V3, at least for his title track...

[Symphonyâ„¢]

no one cares about him anymore.

[Delincious]

good because gentleman sucked

he should keep doing what he's the best at, catchy and entertaining songs with great mvs

[Saesang Pan]

thats my psy

[fuckJohnny]

no one cares about him anymore.

 

Korea obviously does.

[Symphonyâ„¢]

Korea obviously does.

Only place does

[fuckJohnny]

Only place does

 

Only place that matters tbh. That's where he gets his money from.

GS or no GS.

[sane]

I liked Gentleman 

[Symphonyâ„¢]

GS or no GS.

He is trying to aim for more.

[Blinket]

GS or no GS.

No. He got a lot of money overseas and from YouTube.

[mgl]

Good, maybe he'll go back to doing thing that work better than trying to replicate OGS.

[CALICO CAT]

hopefully he will forget about trying to cater the western world because gentleman sucked

[silicon soul]

Whatever happened to assarabia lol?

[Pochiitto]

I like his music, i like gentleman! i don't know whats the problem here… i know he's aren't satisfied with gentleman because he know he can do something better.  

[Aya Sama]

Whatever happened to assarabia lol?

i thought Gentleman was Assarabia. I just vaguely remembering something about changing the name since it sounded offensive

[Blinket]

Whatever happened to assarabia lol?

They changed the name to gentleman cuz apparently they thought it might've been offensive to arabs

[SchoolNote]

Well he did have an immense amount of pressure on him to live up to the Gangnam Style ownage but in all seriousness he needs to focus on what he does best. Go back to your musical roots instead of trying to make everyone happy.

[Meth Krystal]

I love Champion and Bird, (And Gangnam Style until it got overplayed)

 

If it is anything like Champion I'll stan him.

[Delincious]

They changed the name to gentleman cuz apparently they thought it might've been offensive to arabs

which was a sensible thing to do

[Blinket]

which was a sensible thing to do

Kinda dumb tho... do u really think Arabs would pay attention to that kind of thing...? it's just a Korean word

[Delincious]

Kinda dumb tho... do u really think Arabs would pay attention to that kind of thing...? it's just a Korean word

Like it'd make a difference

before he'd have the time to clarify it it'd have become a huge issue and even then not everyone will know he clarified, and even those who know the explanation might not completely buy it

it's far safer to just change the title, literally takes 5 seconds than taking the risk.
