US authorities are investigating whether a nine-year-old boy who raps under the name of Lil Poopy and appears in sexually suggestive videos is the victim of possible child abuse.
The boy, whose real name is Luie Rivera Jr, is seen slapping a woman's backside and riding in a Ferrari in some videos.
In another instance posted on YouTube, he sings: "Coke ain't a bad word" – and then appears with the drink Coca-Cola in his hands.
Lil Poopy music that was posted to an online mixtape site last October has lyrics that include him singing about being a "bad boy" and a "cocaine cowboy", the Associated Press news agency reported.
