gangnam man slays shitty anime and becomes number 1 hit on itunes
— Triple-Q
Triple-Q is an Australian music YouTuber best known for making music mashups, usually featuring songs from anime or "Gangnam Style". He is also a visual artist and graphic designer. He has released mashups since 2012, releasing individual songs and albums, including multiple albums that combine songs with "Gangnam Style". His channel was terminated due to copyright strikes in October of 2020, but it was restored the next month. He used to be a collaborator of video game music mashup channel SiIvaGunner.
Tropes:
- Author Appeal:
- He is a huge fan of "Gangnam Style" and has created many mashups using the song, even entire albums.
- As he enjoys anime, most of his mashups include songs from anime. Love Live! mashups are common because he is a fan of the series.
- Fanservice Cover: His thumbnails sometimes feature sexual images of anime girls.
- Running Gag:
- Videos featuring "Gangnam Style" mashups are very common.
- The second most common song featured in mashups is Big Chungus's theme.
- Series Mascot: "The Birthday Girl," the character who features in Triple-Q's album covers. That's her in the image.
- Super-Deformed: Smol Nozomi is a chibi version of Nozomi from Love Live! created by Triple-Q that became a popular meme on SiIvaGunner. He has also created smol versions of other characters from Love Live or other anime.
- Suspiciously Similar Song: Invoked with his videos "Sucker is a new and original song which doesn't plagiarize at all", "SELFIE is a new and original song which doesn't plagiarize at all", and good 4 u is a new and original song which doesn't plagiarize at all which mashup each song with many songs that sound similar to them.
- Take That!: His videos "Sucker is a new and original song which doesn't plagiarize at all", "SELFIE is a new and original song which doesn't plagiarize at all", and good 4 u is a new and original song which doesn't plagiarize at all could be seen as jokes at the expense of The Jonas Brothers, The Chainsmokers, and Olivia Rodrigo for writing derivative songs. However, the videos are actually insulting people who insist the songs are ripoffs for sounding similar to other songs.
