MUMBAI: Gangnam style rapper Psy is again making headlines as his new single ‘Gentleman’ has received over 52 million views within two days. With this single, the YouTube sensation has proved that he is there to stay.

The dance video to ‘Gentleman’, the South Korean singer’s long-awaited follow up to ‘Gangnam Style’, was posted on YouTube at 9 pm (1200 GMT) on Saturday. The video has received mixed reactions but Psy carries the phrase well 'Love me or hate me, but you can't ignore me’ as the number of views on YouTube have spoken it all.

The video shows Psy, wearing his signature sunglasses, dancing at various locations in and around Seoul including a high-end clothing store, restaurant, swimming pool and a library. The story line features the singer teasing and playing practical jokes on women, such as pulling their chairs away as they are about to sit or untying a woman's bikini top at a swimming pool, before meeting his match.

In the first 24 hours, it racked up around 20 million hits, destroying the previous record for single-day views of 8 million, set by Canadian heartthrob Justin Bieber’s ‘Boyfriend’ video in May 2012.

“51million views in 40 hours!! My God !!!” the 35-year-old star exclaimed on his Twitter account.

The video starts off with Park Jae-Sang surrounded by a couple of old men holding shopping bags walking down the streets in his signature style glasses. The whole video witnesses Korean singer playing pranks on women. But the part where he makes woman smell his fart kind of gets gross. Will have to wait and watch to see the new signature dance style picked up from this video.

On 15 April, Gentleman was ranked in the top 10 songs on iTunes stores in France, Canada, New Zealand, Denmark and Sweden. It also topped the Finland chart.

The choreography for Gentleman was unveiled at a concert in Seoul on 13 April.

In January 2001, Psy debuted his full-length album ‘Psy from the Psycho World!’, for which he was fined by South Korean government authorities due to his album's inappropriate content. On New Year eve, Psy performed in a globally televised New Year's Eve celebration with American rap-artist MC Hammer on-stage in front of over 1 million people in Times Square, New York City, thus showing his popularity he gained with his last single.
