Hip Hoppers love to use puppets in their music videos (photo: A puppet of DJ IV from Keepin' It Real With Universal Soul).
As I've mentioned many times here before, there is an artistic connection between hip hop and puppetry that I can't quite explain but I certainly do appreciate. Complex Blog has put together an "Unauthorized History Of Puppets In Hip Hop" that includes Kanye West's recent video Champion as well as a couple of older ones like Eminem's Ass Like That. It's a good list, but doesn't include some of my favourites like Hot In Herre and How To Make A Beat.
