Epic Rap Battles of History

^Not so far afaik.

Agreed with Ivysaurman. Lloyd made a great choice playing Wallace, although he had a lot less to boast about as Wallace than Peter did being Washington (Washington being more important in history overall and having more to rap about without just bashing an opponent, which is what Wallace practically had to do the majority of his verses). This was a very nice battle, the only part I didn't like being the grunts and "strokes" between lines in the first verse >.>
 
Season 3 Finale

Underwhelming.

Compared to the season two finale, this was nothing. While Michelangelo (artist) had a good solo bar and the last verse was decent, I think they could have done so much more with this concept. With so many people, they should have at least given them proper introductions and made it around four minutes long. Nice way to cap off a rather bland season honestly (imo, aside from Poe v King, Hitler v Vader, and Washington v Wallace among others).
 
Just cause it didn't go on for like ten minutes doesn't mean it was too short. Three minutes is pretty long, considering most rap battles.

Wallace vs Washington was good, and Bill Nye was dumb af lmao
 
Imo it was a good finale.

The battle I liked the most (because I did get the "jokes") was Newtown vs. Bill Nye. :D
 
Hey guys, ERB is back with the first episode of season four.

What do you think? I'm not too fond of this one. I don't think there's a clear winner here.
 
"Good thing you work in a firehouse cause you just got burned." The way they said and acted out this line was the highlight of the battle for me xD

Overall, there was nothing spectacular about it - no amazing disses, no extremely clever punchlines, not even a good ending. I'd call it meh, and I hope the following battles are far improvements.
 
Um... no. As Uralya said, the best line was you live in a firehouse, but otherwise kinda dull... and the B-Team with Puff Man screwed up.
 
Just going to put this here that the guy's name is Stay Puft, not puff.

After reviewing the video, I actually kinda like the Ghostbusters' second verse, but again, it doesn't make up for the fact that the battle was rather average as a whole. When looking at the broad trends it seems the quality has declined since season two.

Romeo/Juliet v Bonnie/Clyde

This was a very nice battle indeed and a much-needed rebound from last week's performance. I loved the first and second verses of Romeo and Clyde especially, but the girls sure did better than I expected.
 
Maybe the next one will have James and Jessie? Seems to be a theme going on now with pairs or groups and not single person vs single person battles.

Nope :p

Zeus v Thor

This was by far even better than the last one. Tons of references, an actual historical background, mythology (bonus points), great flows on both ends, disses galore, trying a whole new setup, etc. This battle has everything and more - to top this off, I honestly can't pick a clear winner. Thor probably had more clever rhymes, but Zeus laid out the boasts like no tomorrow.

Jack the Ripper vs Hannibal Lecter (not expected, but welcome)

Lecter had a nice portrayal and a great second verse - Lloyd was perfect for this (reminds me of his Hitler impression, which is probably where he got experience for this role). Jack wasn't bad, but Lecter called him out so hard, not once but twice. Definitely giving it to Lecter.
