====Music==== Hearn can be heard on the [[Pink Floyd]] album ''[[The Wall]]'' (at the 4:07 mark of the song "[[Don't Leave Me Now (Pink Floyd song)|Don't Leave Me Now]]" as "Pink" flips through television channels just before destroying his television set leading into the song "[[Another Brick in the Wall Pt. 3]]"). This clip of Hearn appears to have been taken from an actual game between the Lakers and [[Chicago Bulls|Bulls]] which was probably recorded during the 1978β79 season. Before the playoffs in the 1986 season, Hearn released a 12-inch rap single "Rap-Around".<ref name="articles.latimes.com">{{cite news| url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1986-04-17-sp-14-story.html |newspaper=Los Angeles Times | first=Scott | last=Ostler | title=Chick's Laker 'Rap' Will Surely Tweak Ears of Celtic Fans | date=April 17, 1986}}</ref> The song features Hearn in the studio re-creating many of his most famous 'Chickisms' and was distributed by Macola Records (who distributed an early Dr. Dre/Ice Cube group "World Class Wreckin' Cru").<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.discogs.com/label/13363-Macola-Record-Co |title=Macola Record Co. |website=Discogs |access-date=June 1, 2022 }}</ref> The song was played on Los Angeles television and radio stations, including the Lakers' televised games.<ref name="articles.latimes.com"/>
