You and I are in the same mind. From the music to the lines, that battle fit the "epic" part of Epic Rap Battles of History. In the end, the two just get up in each other's faces. How fucking perfect is that? I hope more rap battles capture the epicness of the premise like that one.
The entire rap I was waiting for them to mention Led Zeppelin. If you got a legendary band that makes songs out of your work then it's not even a competition. They should make a battle of the bands sort of rap ( Led Zep vs Pink Floyd vs Queen vs Stones vs Beatles )
@@raspberrycrowns9494 that would be cool but it would have way too big a cast to practically work. Unless you just have the lead singer of each band do the rapping, which would work.
Matteo Cavalli That has to be one of my least favorites. There were some good lines, but it isn’t fun to listen to. Both voices are a little grating to me.
Kubrick is the best lookalike ever. But all the shitting on Michael Bay only for Bay not caring about fk all and bragging about his money is just the best thing.
I find it funny how Lloyd can give off a villain vibe while still somehow giving the vibe that he'd give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. Random thought, just curious if anybody else gets the same vibes.
I think Jack won honestly. I used to show these to my mom and ask her opinion, and for that one she said "Hannibal just seemed to say everything Jack said was wrong, and had a couple referance lines like the Dirty Lamb has just been Silenced line, but nothing outside of there. Where as Jack was like Yo I legit killed people. You're in a book, and even in that book, you got caught, while im still on the run. "Im still wanted, you're forgotten." That's a good line. His closer line is meh, but you get the point i hope lol. That's just hoe she explained it to me and i was like damn, that makes good sense lol.
Nah to me Hannibal pretty clearly wins. He dismisses Jack's entire first verse with his opening lines and then talks down to him in his second verse like he's a child trying to be a serial killer. Jack comes off as angry and unfocused while Hannibal is totally in control and gives the whole battle a tone of an adult explaining things to a kid.
Hannibal won for the sheer fact that he’s the only rapper to ever deconstruct his opponent’s verses and say specifically why the don’t work (even though I thought Jack’s verses were great)
As I french, when I see for the 1st time napeleon vs napoléon and heard french, I was very happy but at the same time surprised that an american chanel put some french in the video !

@@TheNerindil If you ask about "Sacrebleu" , it's an actual french word. The sentence itself is not a particular french idiom but it's something that a french person would say ahah
Since I'm early enough I'm going to say Jeff Bezos vs. Lex Luthor, since they are both bald rich and white. Then there should be a cameo by nice Peter since he is bald now.
Better would be Hugh Grant* vs Lex Luthor, since they’re both bald, rich, white, psychotic, and pure evil. *Hugh Grant the CEO, or I guess former CEO now that it was bought out, of Monsanto. Not Hugh Grant the actor who plays Wolverine. That Hugh Grant is fine.

Not that I've seriously tried to find out, I mean, I could google it, but it seems to me like he isn't that well known outside of the US. So that might contribute to a lower number of views, I guess. Also it's one of the older battles, isn't it? Don't the older ones often have a lower view count than the newer ones?
Anna Kilifa Napoleon Dynamite is a character from the movie Napoleon Dynamite. It’s essentially about weird, awkward, pathetic rural Idahoans. Pretty accurately too. Very strange, very quotable. I’m super biased in favor of it though, so you might not like it. I highly recommend checking it out though
I agree more with Lloyd than Pete. I think the most underrated ones that I *NEVER* see on these sort of lists are the one with Blackbeard and the one with Lance Armstrong
It's interesting to watch each of these videos thinking of what my top 5 battles would be. Only one of my pics was shown in each of your videos but every single one of your pics had me like "ah yeah that one is pretty damn epic too" and now I have at least 13 battles on my top 5 list.
Hippocrates vs. House M.D. (or another modern doctor) I think having two doctors rapping at each other might be fun, they need a way to de-stress right? ;-) Plus, think of all the puns =)
In terms of historical accuracy, using famous lines and overall flow, it’s in my top 3. I LOVE how they actually get up in each other’s faces, and they’re keeping to the original idea of the show (today’s rap battles are more like “Epic Rap Battles of Pop Culture”)

Great picks. I love thinking about how he chose them, imagining being a part of these projects. I will say, Mitt Romney Vs Obama has one of my favorite lines in all ERB: (This has nothing to do with politics for me, I just appreciate how great this line is) "Republicans need a puppet and you fit, got their hand so far up your rear call you Mitt." It was so perfectly inline with the political rhetoric at the time and the pun is just top tier as far as puns go.

After rewatching almost the whole series i gotta say my favorite used to be jack and hannibal but now its zeus v thor it took probably the most amount of time and the lines go so hard and its underrated as hell honestly tge view count on that one is just too low comparatively
5. Tony Hawk vs. Wayne Gretzky 4. James Bond vs. Austin Powers 3. Babe Ruth vs. Lance Armstrong 2. Jack The Ripper vs. Hannibal Lecter 1. Gordon Ramsey vs. Julia Child
I can't believe that neither of them picked Sir Issac Newton vs Bill Nye. Also...how about Jack White vs Jack Black. May even be able to get Jack Black to do his own part. Seems like he'd be down. Or it would be even funnier if he played Jack White.
Not that anyone cares. Lmao. Top 5 - 5. Bill Gates v Steve Jobs 4. Edison v Tesla (so many historical notes) 3. Einstein v Hawking 2. Ripper v Hannibal (the beats and rhymes are amazing) 1. Vader v Hitler (nostalgic probably, but it started here for me and I've been watching ever since) Honorable mentions: Adam v Eve, Ruth v Armstrong, Mario Bros v Wright Bros, Roosevelt v Churchill, Directors, and finally EpicLloyd v Nicepeter.

I know you already sold out to Terminator Genysis sponsor money, but RoboCop v Inspector Gadget is still the best idea you're never gonna use.
Judge Judy! VS Simon Cowell
“No one in you family ever lives to see a”-
Greed trailer.
Hm.
personally i loved the lego's rap battle
Thor vs Zeus is criminally underrated.
I've found my people!
Soooo good.
Yesss
The most fire bars for sure
I watched Petes top 5 vid too. It’s great hearing both he and Lloyd speak so enthusiastically and passionately about what they do. It lets us see a side of them that isn’t rapping and dissing.
The western vs eastern philosophers one is still my favorite
I loved it. I would like to see another one of these lists from Zach or Dante.
I swear Lloyd's forehead has grown since the last season
Love your vids!
Keep up the great work.
Ps: Do another tesla vs edison ^^
"You're the only type of dynamite that's never gonna bang!"
That verse made him win imo.
After rewatching almost the whole series i gotta say my favorite used to be jack and hannibal but now its zeus v thor it took probably the most amount of time and the lines go so hard and its underrated as hell honestly tge view count on that one is just too low comparatively
Could we have a Jon Snow rap battle?
_I know I know nothing_
Get some long shorts first bud lol
Jon Snow VS Kim Jong Un needs to happen
@@silentrapbattles3333 *The two supreme leaders*
@@1caaru5 I mean, the connection was "King's of the North" but ok
@@silentrapbattles3333 *That Still works*
Cleopatra & Marilyn Monroe Deserves To Be On The List☑️
Awww ya another erb2 upload.
Billy the kid vs the karate kid (just reminding you)
This sounds promising. ^_^
Lol I literally just watched the directors again this morning.
When he says "failed" as in "you're the ugliest thing that's ever failed in Russia since Boris Yeltsin" i swear a glob of spit flys out his mouth
I know this seems weird, but I literally just watched a bunch of ERBs last night and nice peter showed up in my dream
Tom cruise vs Tom hanks
colin horwedel did you really leave like 15 separate comments saying who you want?
LemonyPanda yeah I believe he did
Vs Tom Brady
Fatal Four-Way: Tom Cruise vs Tom Hanks vs Tom Jones vs Tom Brady.
Tom Hiddleston!!!
Kevin Hart vs Jack black
colin horwedel could get destrom to play kevin
Could get that Jablinski to play jack black
How about one with multiple comedians
They could put in some nice Cosby and Louis CK burns in there
wouldn’t happen.. theyre too close in history
Pennywise VS Joker
Jack Skellington vs The Grinch
Season 6 should have the Dalai Llama versus Pope Francis. Probably going to hell for that, but I stand by it
Deadpool RWBYfan Or God vs. pedophile priests
@@friendlyneighbourhoodbridg1354 I think
God *vs* Kanye West.
The Directors is my favorite, followed by Cleopatra versus Marilyn Monroe.
Could we see Robin Williams or Jerry Sienfield this season, comedians would be so fun to see
5. Tony Hawk vs. Wayne Gretzky
4. James Bond vs. Austin Powers
3. Babe Ruth vs. Lance Armstrong
2. Jack The Ripper vs. Hannibal Lecter
1. Gordon Ramsey vs. Julia Child
I can't believe that neither of them picked Sir Issac Newton vs Bill Nye.
Also...how about Jack White vs Jack Black. May even be able to get Jack Black to do his own part. Seems like he'd be down. Or it would be even funnier if he played Jack White.
I'd like to see the reverse of this with the least favourite. Unless it's been done already and I missed it.
DIRECTORS TIE WITH RUSSIANS FOR MY FAVORITE ERB, second place tie would be Blackbeard and Caesar
Fidel Castro 's gonna be da THING!🇨🇺
But what about Blackbeard vs Al Capone? This is by far your best performance
Bean vs Chaplin
My favorite will always be eastern vs western philosophers 😂
you guys should have done honorable mentions
suggestion: Ferruccio Lamborghini v/s Enzo Ferrari.
Ferdinand Porsche vs Henry Ford
epicLLOYD's list matches my tastes much better than Peter's.
*People in France liked it*
Take it from a French guy
Not that anyone cares. Lmao.
Top 5 -
5. Bill Gates v Steve Jobs
4. Edison v Tesla (so many historical notes)
3. Einstein v Hawking
2. Ripper v Hannibal (the beats and rhymes are amazing)
1. Vader v Hitler (nostalgic probably, but it started here for me and I've been watching ever since)
Honorable mentions: Adam v Eve, Ruth v Armstrong, Mario Bros v Wright Bros, Roosevelt v Churchill, Directors, and finally EpicLloyd v Nicepeter.
