Thomas Traum hat aus unzähligen HipHop-Videos die Mutter aller Rap-Videos destilliert und den Motherfucker mit  Gustav Mahlers Sinfonie Nr. 5 unterlegt, die Filmfreunde vielleicht aus Tod in Venedig kennen:
"A typology of rap videos and an attempt to construct the most generic Rap video out of many. Musical genres are always heavily codified and rap seems to be one of the most extreme ones, each video has similar if not identical subjects, the same light, the same cars, the same girls, the same dance moves etc. Through their likeness they seem to be almost ‘classic’, just as classic theater or opera."
