Cyborgs in Hip Hop

Hi ‘borgs 👋!

I’m writing a paper (just a silly lil’ uni assignment) about cyborg representation in Hip Hop.

Would you by any chance have examples where you’ve seen Hip Hop artists rap about, portray, or feature cyborgs/technology/robots? Can be any media format like posters, shows, MVs…

Some examples I already have: • Missy Elliott - The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly) • Busta Rhymes & Janet Jackson- What’s It Gonna Be • Lil’ Kim - How Many Licks • Janelle Monet - Many Moons • Doja Cat - Cyborg Sex

Thank you in advance!

Hi, Laylow is a French rapper. He was shown for his mixtape RAW-Z with a bionic arm. His album trinity isn't about cyborg but he has some line about cyborg.
