(NewsCore) - Rapper MattyB just turned eight last week, but his songs have already been listened to by millions around the world, myFOXatlanta.com reported late Wednesday.
The pint-sized YouTube sensation, whose real name is Matthew Morris, is from Gwinnett County, Ga. and he takes famous songs by artists like Britney Spears and Katy Perry and adds his own rap lyrics.
MattyB is already being compared by people like celebrity blogger Perez Hilton to another YouTube sensation, Justin Bieber.
The eight-year-old is studying at Jan Smith's studios. The Atlanta-based voice coach has also helped to train Bieber and Usher among others.
"I like Justin Bieber, I like Michael Jackson, I like B.O.B," said MattyB.
