Episode description

Inspired by the classic folktale, meet our modern-day hero John Henry, a talented musician crafting catchy tunes instead of lifting heavy steel.

He's an up-and-coming rapper laying down the hottest new beats out there—until he encounters STEAM, a super-smart computer that can do everything he does but with speed. DJ Fyütch and Baby Scratch spin the question: Can the human heart rival technology?
