(KTNV) -- The parents of a nine-year-old rapper in Massachusetts are finding themselves in hot water this morning.

It could almost be endearing except the nine-year-old is rapping about things like cocaine as if it is a normal part of a nine-year-old's life.

The young boy goes by the name of "Lil Poopy."

His online videos are full of standard video vixens that are much older than him in some pretty sexy situations.

And one of his songs is titled "Coke Boy.":

Now the authorities have caught wind of the young rapper and his videos after a feature in a local newspaper.

Lil Poopy's real name is Louie Rivera Jr. and his home life is being investigated by the Department of Children and Families after a concerned citizen placed a phone call to authorities.

Lawyers for the family say he is a thriving, well-adjusted fourth-grader with a good home life, good grades and musical talent.

But, not everyone agrees.

No criminal charges have been filed yet. Authorities say they just want to make sure that Lil Poopy is being properly cared for.
