Carmen: A Hip Hopera (2001)
Ce n'est plus sur des airs d'opéra mais sur du rap et du hip-hop en argot que Carmen chante ses amours : "Regarde, c'est moi Carmen qui ondule comme un cul de sac", rappe la belle, pour séduire un officier de police. "J'ai le corps qui bouge, pas de corset, les frères veulent le secouer", poursuit-elle. L'arrivée dans un bar de Carmen, vêtue d'une robe rouge moulante et décolletée, une fleur dans les cheveux, déclenche une bagarre. Après l'officier de police, Carmen passe dans les bras d'une star du rap qui lui promet une vie digne d'elle, mais qui tombe sous les balles d'un policier véreux, lors d'un concert de rap...
