MC Hawking is a satirical persona created by Ken Lawrence, blending hip-hop music and science-themed lyrics with the iconic voice simulation associated with physicist Stephen Hawking. The character gained a cult following for its humorous and educational approach, tackling topics such as quantum physics, black holes, and the scientific method, often with a comedic and irreverent tone.
The music features tracks like “E=MC Hawking”, “All My Shootings Be Drivebys”, and “Entropy”, which humorously convey scientific concepts. Lawrence used text-to-speech software to emulate Stephen Hawking’s voice, adding to the novelty of the project. While MC Hawking is a parody, it also resonates with fans of science and geek culture, balancing humor with genuine admiration for scientific inquiry.
