However, when the transwarp key releases an outburst of energy, the energy pulse manages to resurrect Bumblebee. “Mama Said Knock You Out” by LL Cool J - Bumblebee’s fate in Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is left uncertain for some time as the villainous Terrorcon Scourge manages to kill him. They regroup with Elena and the other Autobots as they plan to fly to Peru to recover the transwarp key. The Transformers: Rise of the Beasts soundtrack continues this tradition by using “Hypnotize” for a scene where Noah and Mirage arrive in style at an abandoned location. The song has been repeatedly used in movies like 10 Things I Hate About You, Central Intelligence and Ocean’s 8. 's final song to be released before his death, “Hypnotize” is regarded as one of the greatest rap songs of all time. It makes sense for a track like “The Choice of Yours” (that is considered to be from the Golden Age of Hip-Hop) to be featured in such a scene. This scene is also significant as it introduces Noah to the world of Transformers for the very first time. Driving himself in his car form, Mirage also introduces his powers of creating fake visions of himself. “The Choice Is Yours” by Black Sheep - Hip-hop duo Black Sheep’s 1991 single “The Choice of Yours” plays at a crucial car chase in the movie when a Porsche turns into the Transformer Mirage. The jazz-rap track is just one of the many iconic entries to the Transformers: Rise of the Beasts soundtrack, having previously won the Grammy for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or a Group in 1994. The awe of Elena’s discovery is captured with hip-hop trio Digital Planets’ debut single “Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat)”. “Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat)” by Digable Planets - The true nature of the transwarp key is revealed to Elena when she sneaks into the museum at night. A single from Illmatic, its cinematic connection comes from DJ Premier’s production itself as he samples music from theater organist Lee Erwin’s work for the 1940 fantasy classic The Thief of Baghdad. When Noah is planning out a car heist with his friend and neighbor, Reek, the East Coast hip-hop anthem “Represent” can be heard playing. “Represent” by Nas - While the first shot of Noah’s room reveals a poster of Nas’s historical 1994 album Illmatic, Nas’ music plays later in the movie. The Wu-Tang Clan's connection with the Transformers: Rise of the Beasts soundtrack continues as the remix (titled Old School Radio Version) also features verses from the group’s members like U-God and Method Man. The song continues playing till she accidentally chances upon an ancient artifact (which is actually a crucial and powerful Transformers relic called the transwarp key). The remix of R&B vocal trio SWV’s “Anything” introduces the character as Elena can be seen arriving late to her job at the museum. “Anything (Old Skool Radio Version)” by SWV - The movie’s other human protagonist, Elena Wallace, is an artifacts researcher, who interns at a museum.
