—"Necrophilia"
Formed in June of 2021, Self Insert is an experimental hip hop trio that consists of Sebastian Hedge, Zakary Waxman, and an unknown third member.
The band is known for a unique use of drastic voice changing effects, loud and hyper-realized electronic production, and subversive lyrics that often invoke different mechanical characters inside some kind of bizarre deconstructive scenario.

Provides examples of:
- Genre-Busting: You won't find much music that sounds like this. Their sound seems to encompass Hip-Hop, Electronic Music, Rock, Hyperpop, Trap, and even experimental music (while similar voice changing effects and genre-fluidity have been used by seminal hyperpop artists, Self Insert seems to have defined their own use of the trope).
- List of Transgressions: On their debut release, the band begins boastfully confessing to a long list of charges for nearly 30 seconds, including "...arson, possession, tax evasion, kidnapping, bribing a government official..."
- Mid-Vid Skit: In the song "Necrophilia", the unknown third member goes on a rant about how the judge better lock him up because he's done every common crime in the book. Halfway through the song, a skit with a female judge begins where she asks to "get a taste of the Self Insert".
- Unknown Character:
- "The Dealer", a silent figure represented only by a black silhouette, is often seen with or mentioned by the group.
- Their third member is always visible, but their identity remains unknown.
- Vocal Dissonance: Despite all members appearing to be male, their vocal modifications make them sound completely unlike how they look.
