Ssa2 (Korean: 싸2) is the second album by South Korean singer PSY. The album was released on January 1, 2002. The album contains 16 songs. The album was also released worldwide through iTunes.
After the controversy which surrounded the release of his first album Psy from the Psycho World! in early 2001, and being fined for explicit content, this second album's release at the beginning of 2002 followed in its footsteps.
In late 2001, he was arrested for smoking marijuana, ordered to pay a heavy fine, and spent 25 days in jail. He responded by writing songs about the controversies and government censors complained about the "defiant and obscene lyrics" on his second album.
While the first album contained only one explicit song, half the songs in the new album received explicit warnings and could not be sold to persons under 19. Korean civil groups complained to the government standards board and he was fined again.
Alice Vincent of The Telegraph said the album "sparked complaints from authorities that it would negatively influence children, cementing Psy's reputation for controversy and eccentricity."
