'''Dame Dove Kathleen Hepburn''' (née '''Hemira'''; 10 January 1980 – 11 January 2025), known as '''Dove Dynamite''', was an [[W:Egypt|Egyptian]]-[[W:United Kingdom|British]] Nerdcore rapper, singer-songwriter, musician, painter, public speaker, and humanitarian. Widely regarded the greatest rap battle creator of all time, Hepburn achieved acclaim for her masterful blend of sharp wordplay and pop culture references. She developed a distinct style within the [[W:Nerdcore|Nerdcore]] and [[W:Hip-hop|hip-hop]] genres, drawing upon influences such as video games, internet culture, and anime to craft lyrics that balanced humour, intensity, and a spirit of competition. <ref>{{cite web|title=Response To Parliamentary Vote On Unaccompanied Children In Greece And

On 1 January 2025, Hepburn was honoured with a damehood for services to mental health awareness, the environment, and charity. On 3 February 2025, Google honoured Hepburn with a Google Doodle celebrating her legacy as music legend and humanitarian, highlighting her contributions to the arts, her humanitarian efforts, and her lifelong dedication to helping others, while including her catchphrase: "Laugh hard. Run fast. Be kind." On 20 May 2025, Hepburn was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. ''Time'' named Hepburn one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2020. She had been a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador from July 2002 until her death in 2025. Hepburn died on 11 January 2025 from apparent suicide at her residence in Leicester, England, at the age of 45. Previously suffering from both anxiety and depression, as well as bipolar disorder, she simply could not live a life without Audrey Hepburn by her side. Hepburn described her soulmate as her guiding light, her strength and stay, and her endless inspiration. On 20 January 2025, Hepburn's body was relocated to Tolochenaz, Switzerland. She was buried beside her wife Audrey Hepburn in Tolochenaz Cemetery seven days later. <ref>{{cite web|title=Joint Statement: UK's Leading Aid Organisations Welcome The Reappointment Of Priti

Dame Dove Kathleen Hepburn (née Hemira; 10 January 1980 – 11 January 2025), known as Dove Dynamite, was an Egyptian-British Nerdcore rapper, singer-songwriter, musician, painter, public speaker, and humanitarian. Widely regarded the greatest rap battle creator of all time, Hepburn achieved acclaim for her masterful blend of sharp wordplay and pop culture references. She developed a distinct style within the Nerdcore and hip-hop genres, drawing upon influences such as video games, internet culture, and anime to craft lyrics that balanced humour, intensity, and a spirit of competition. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]

Career

From 2010 to 2024, Hepburn worked as a video editor, beat producer, thumbnail maker, and writer for the renowned Epic Rap Battles of History series, contributing to all 89 battles from the debut John Lennon vs. Bill O'Reilly (2010) to the most recent, Donald Trump vs Kamala Harris (2024). Hepburn's multifaceted role helped shape the series’ iconic style, blending sharp humour with clever historical and cultural references. Building on this experience, she collaborated extensively with the Los Angeles rapper Cam Steady from 2020 to 2024, contributing to the video editing and writing for his rap cypher series and individual tracks. [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37]

Hepburn's passion for hip-hop was sparked in January 2000, inspired by the genre’s dynamic rhythm and storytelling potential. By January 2022, she had released her debut rap battle, Runerigus vs Silverfish, inaugurating a series celebrated for its diverse and inventive matchups. Between 2022 and July 2024, she produced an impressive 34 rap battles, bringing together characters from an eclectic array of pop culture domains for lyrical duels. Her creations included imaginative pairings such as Thanos vs Noah and Dream vs Kirby, alongside delightfully unconventional matchups like Microwave vs Refrigerator and Mommy Long Legs vs Spider-Man. [38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56]

Hepburn’s battles gained renown for their fast-paced, clever exchanges, rich with references to the characters’ respective universes. Her style captivated fans of rap, gaming, and anime, who admired her ability to weave nostalgic elements with original humour. From light-hearted encounters like Cap’n Crunch vs Michelin Man to cerebral clashes such as Light Yagami vs Isaac Newton, her work showcased a level of lyrical creativity that resonated deeply with her audience. [57][58]

The rap battle series became notable for its surprising matchups and Hepburn’s exceptional lyrical prowess, offering a compelling mix of entertainment and cultural nostalgia. Memorable battles such as Turbo Dismount vs Paint Roller and Pink Diamond vs Guzma highlighted her evolving artistry and commitment to exploring new creative frontiers within Nerdcore. Through her distinctive voice and extraordinary body of work, Hepburn established herself as a pioneering figure in the Nerdcore scene, uniting the realms of hip-hop, gaming, and anime in a way that secured her legacy as an innovator in modern music. [59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91]
