From hoverboardsand Robot THOTs, to bionic implants that hide DSLR cameras and dispense mousetraps, Nickels <\/strong>(whose real name is Nicholas King) is the creative mind behind some of the hottest viral content on the Internet at the moment. His ground-breaking computer animation has led to collaborations with Dennis Rodman, Jake Paul, Fedez, Chiara Ferragni, and others. <\/p>\n

Recently, Nickels <\/strong>turned French rapper Kekra<\/strong>’s new music video, “CLS”<\/em> into a post-apocalyptic slum-filled vision of a future populated by sensual robots. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Just a few months before that, Nickels <\/strong>digitally implanted rapper Nessly<\/strong>’s arm with an auto-tune gadget that went viral. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And before that he took the selfie-craze to the next level with Jake Paul<\/strong>, the YouTuber with 20 million followers, and little brother of Logan Paul<\/strong>, digitally installing a G7X DSLR<\/em> camera into his arm. It’s so uncanny you believe it’s real! <\/p>\n

Another video has surface of rapper Yung Bans wearing a pair of the Nike <\/strong>“Back To The Future”<\/em>-inspired self-lacing MAG trainers<\/em> while standing on a Hoverboard from the same iconic movie… only this one has Nickels name emblazoned across it.<\/p>\n
