The music video for “Daddy“, the latest single by South Korean rapper/singer PSY, has got to be one of the most bizarre music videos we’ve ever seen.
The “Gangnam Style” singer recently made his triumphant return to the Korean music scene with his highly anticipated 7th studio album, “Chiljip PSY-Da”.
The album was released alongside the music videos for his 2 epic title tracks, “Daddy” and “Napal Baji”.
Featuring leader CL of 2NE1, the music video for “Daddy” features Psy as himself, his father, and his son. It opens with a horrifying scene where Psy’s face was superimposed onto a baby’s body. We then see Psy as a young boy flirting with his female classmates and his teacher in school. The singer also plays a playboy grandfather who mingles around with women.
“Daddy” is a song that Psy co-wrote with American rapper Will.i.am and according to SPIN, it is also a remix of Will.i.am’s hit song, “I Got It From My Mama”. Similar to “Gangnam Style”, its music video for “Daddy” is likely to inspire tonnes of parodies. The fact that it’s a highly addictive EDM track also makes it possible for clubs to be blasting it for some time to come.
This album marks Psy’s first comeback since releasing “Gentleman” in April 2013 and “Hangover” (ft. Snoop Dogg) in June 2014. It is the follow-up album to “PSY 6 (Six Rules), Part 1”, his 2012 EP that featured collaborations with BIGBANG‘s G-Dragon, Korean hip-hop duo Leessang, and more.
The 9-track album will feature a star-studded guest artiste line-up including will.i.am, Ed Sheeran, JYJ’s Junsu, Gaeko, and more.
