But there are also several musicians we have never covered. This week, Mario Ritter tells us about some of these artists and plays their current hits.
Heard of K-pop? It stands for Korean pop. Right now one man is at the heart of K-pop in America. Hip-hop artist Psy was born Park Jae-sang in South Korea and grew up there. But, he traveled to America for higher education. He studied at Boston University and the Berklee College of Music in Massachusetts.
Psy is enjoying critical praise right now for his song, "Gangnam Style." But the video has caught fire. It was recently named the "most-liked" video in the history of Internet videos. It reportedly has been viewed more than 500 million times. And hundreds of people have created their own music video versions of the song on YouTube. In fact, one of the most recent, and funniest, is a version done by Chinese artist and dissident Ai Wei Wei.
"Gangnam Style" is about the culture of the Gangnam neighborhood in Seoul. The area is full of some very stylish people. They wear costly clothes, and live like the rich and famous. Psy says his song makes fun of the whole idea of such people.目前，公告牌排行榜的前十位中有些耳熟能详的名字，但也有几位以前从未入榜的音乐家。本周，马里奥∙里特为我们介绍其中几位艺人，并播放他们当前最红的歌曲。
听说过K-pop吗？也就是韩国流行音乐。目前在美国，一个人成为了韩流音乐的中心。嘻哈艺人Psy，本名朴载相，出生并成长于韩国。他曾去美国深造，就读于波士顿大学以及马萨诸塞州伯克利音乐学院。
Psy目前凭借他的歌曲“江南Style”而广受好评。“江南Style”的视频大红大紫，最近被誉为互联网史上“最受人喜爱的”视频。据报道，该视频观看次数超过五亿。数百人在YouTube上根据这首歌曲创作了自己的音乐视频版本。事实上，其中一个最新、最搞笑的版本是由中国艺术家和政治异己分子艾未未创作的。
“江南Style”反映的是首尔江南区的文化。该区有许多时髦人士。他们穿昂贵的衣服，过着富人和名流的生活。Psy称，这首歌是讽刺这些人的整体观念。
