Meet MattyB. He’s a ten-year-old rapper from Atlanta, who has racked up 650 million YouTube views with his covers of artists like Miley Cyrus and Robin Thicke.

That’s 65 million views for every year of his life so far. Because he is ten.

This is the clip for MattyB’s new single ‘Back In Time’.

In it, he travels back in time to key moments in pop history, like the video for N*Sync’s ‘Bye Bye Bye’, which came out three years before his was born. Because he is ten.

For those who made it to the part where MattyB has a dance-off with a cartoon bird, you didn’t hallucinate that bit. The song is lifted from the soundtrack of the upcoming kid flick Free Birds, starring Woody Harrelson, Owen Wilson and Amy Poehler.

This is creepy and I’m going to leave now.
