STORY: South Korean rapper Psy was awarded for his innovation in the music industry at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York on Friday (April 26).

The Tribeca Disruptive Innovation Awards ceremony was held at New York University's Stern School of Business. On the red carpet Psy talked about the irony of the location.

"When I was in the U.S. I applied to Stern (New York University Business School) and I failed. So this means a lot, especially venue wise, you know. It means a lot," he said with a laugh.

Psy, whose real name is Park Jae-sang, graduated from the Berklee College of Music in the United States.

Last year the 35-year-old broke records when his music video "Gangnam Style" became the most watched clip on YouTube with over one billion views.

On April 13th the rapper released his new single "Gentleman" which has already gone viral.

During the award ceremony Psy jokingly credited his success to his good loo
