PSY Announces New Single, 'Gangnam Style' Hits 2 Billion Views On Youtube
Remember back when PSY’s “Gangnam Style” made him the first artist to reach 1 billion views on Youtube? Well, now he’s the first artist to reach TWO billion views on Youtube, with the K-pop king’s viral video officially crossing the two billion mark over the weekend.

To celebrate the good news, PSY has announced that the music video for his next single “Hangover” will officially premiere on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on June 8, followed by the song’s digital release the following day.
The “Hangover” music video apparently stars Snoop Dogg, as well as K-pop star G-Dragon from boy band BIGBANG, so it should be just as much fun as PSY’s last few videos.
Although “Gangnam Style” follow-up “Gentleman” didn’t match the viral success of its predecessor, it still broke a handful of Youtube records and has been viewed 690 million times to date, proving that PSY still has a lot of strength as a viral artist
