Chip Hop with MC Plus+

From their site

MC Plus+ is a superhuman with an incredible vision far beyond light years ahead of his time. By combining constructs of hip hop with computer science beats he hopes to bridge the gap between present reality and the inner workings of our imagination while resurrecting hip hop in mathematical form. He is credited with formally proving all but one of the fundamental conjectures, which remains unsolved in hyperbolic space. He has also made important decisions with regard to undecidability only to rediscover the genius of his work. His recent attempts at halting the halting problem look promising. Formalizations of the lyrical functions he has defined remain a mystery to all those who study them.
