Ken Leavitt-Lawrence, known as Mc Hawking, is a nerdcore hip hop artist who parodies gangster rap and theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking. Mc Hawking gained some popularity in the early 2000s, largely due to the availability of his music on the Internet. Each of his raps are synthesized by the now defunct commercial text-to-speech program WillowTalk. The songs were originally released in MP3 format, but due to the popularity of the website, Mc Hawking got a record deal with Brash Music to release a "greatest hits" album in 2004. Mc Hawking's entire body of work and his rapper persona were created by American web developer Ken Leavitt-Lawrence. The official Mc Hawking website (created and maintained by Leavitt-Lawrence) is set to look like a personal fan site for the MC. From the mchawking.com home page: "While there are dozens of other sites on the web devoted to Stephen Hawking's scientific achievements, I am unaware of a single site (aside from this one) devoted to his career as a lyrical terrorist."
