According to Wikipedia Watson uses linux. Suse Linux Enterprise Server to be exact. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watson_%28computer%29#Software and for a non wikipedia source http://www.zdnet.com/blog/open-source/what-makes-ibms-watson-run/8208 That's not really important though, as watson is really just a bunch of technologies mashed well by IBM to create one intellegent Question answering computer (eventhough it's actually a room sized set of servers that requires a team of humans to move, as far as I heard)

IBM has worked with linux before though, Lots of companies use linux for different things. They even have a picture of Tux (the linux mascot) in a tuxedo on the IBM Linux page at http://ibm.com/linux

Watson would be harder to portray as a rapper realisticly because they would need a giant computer case I figure.
