Six-Year-Old Rapper 'Booty Pop' Video Causes Outrage
A new video that was recently posted to YouTube is drawing staunch criticism after the young boy who raps in the video talks about making a woman's "booty pop" as bikini-clad women dance around him.
The aspiring South Florida rapper known by his fans as Albert Roundtree, Jr., 6, appears in the video, which was produced by Oakland Park based Frozen-N-Time productions. It was paid for by his parents who are hoping that their son becomes a famous rapper, according to reports.
When asked why the rap video was made using a young boy and bikini dancers Tyler Council, President of Frozen-N-Time Productions, explained that it was all in good fun and meant to cause a few laughs.

"It's supposed to be a joke, but I'd say about 30 percent of the people watching it find it funny," Council told the Miami New Times, adding, "But I still don't regret it."
Still Council defends the young boy by stating that the women were only dancing and that there was no other activities taking place during shooting.
"He's just trying to imitate his idols that he hears on the radio," said Council. "There's no touching going on, there's no drug abuse."
Council uploaded the video Monday and it has since gone viral, amassing several hundred thousand views. Council did add that one of the reasons that his video is gaining so much attention is due to the negative reaction it has gotten.
"Especially on the internet negative publicity is the best," Council explained.
The backlash has not stopped Council, who has already been asked to make another video with Albert, but he has yet to make his decision.
"I haven't had time to think about anything besides 'Booty Pop' because it's destroying the internet," he says.
"His belly button is more important that Andy Griffith dying, and Obama getting the healthcare act past the Supreme Court. I think it's ridiculous," he added.
