Afronaut

". . . capable of funkatizing galaxies."

For me music is a universal way to enable communication between people with different cultural, geographical or linguistic background.
The music of people from Africa is the origin of all modern popular music.

One of my favorit bands is 1970's "Parliament", which happens to be accepted as a pioneer of Afrofuturism. Their P-funk-mythology is a positive vision of music uniting all people and bringing peace to the world. In this mythology, the Afronaut is a clone/cyborg meant to bring the funk (a.k.a peace) to all people of the universe, starting from the mothership (Africa) all over the planet and into the depths of space.

With this concept in mind and listening to OutKast's album "Speakerboxxx" i came up with this character having a microphone as head and sound blasters as hands to bring the funk to people and
". . . do it to you in your eardrums . . ." !
