Is Transformers: Rise of the Beasts a hip hop film?

(Here is a lost episode from the back of the vault. Enjoy!)

Can the 2023 installment of the Transformers film franchise transform Gen Z into '90s hip-hop fans?

Set in 1994, the film follows ex-military tech guru Noah Diaz and a young historian Elena Wallace as they team up with Optimus Prime and the Autobots in a battle for the coveted Transwarp Key, which, if in the hands of the Terrorcons, could threaten the future of Earth and all of mankind.
