"No shirt, no shoes, no service." It's basically a dress code that you have to follow before a restaurant can serve you. It's a public etiquette thing. Also, naan is a form of bread.
You see the "no shoes no shirt no service" signs across the US. It's mostly to keep shirtless dudes in trunks from eating around families and whatnot. It's debatable about whether the actual enforcement is arbitrarily racist, but it's definitely kind of classist in that a lot of shoeless shirtless types are lower class people.
@@PeterG00000 Shoes and shirts are SO cheap due to the 3rd world production if you can not afford shoes or shirts you are in the class of people that can not honestly be helped our lower classes can still afford a shitty flip phone so they can still afford shoes and shirts.

"Slumdog skillionaire" is a pun on "Slumdog Millionaire", a drama film about a teenager from Mumbai going on the Indian version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?".
"Flatten your style like bread, naan violence" Naan is a type of bread popular in South Asia and the Middle East. It's generally flat. A pun on "non-violence".
Along with the infidelity it's also a play on the word "Hose" as in the water hoses, used to disrupt the protests during the civil rights protest. Which is why he says "With Protests AND Women, the same advice goes"
@@lulolie Mr King had an affair with an other woman, refered to by Gandhi as a (W)Hose. The FBI tried to blackmail him with this but MLK told his wife about it.
The doctor Birmingham sandwich is actually kind of a two-parter. Birmingham is a city in Alabama where Martin Luther King was protesting and then arrested in because he was protesting against the mistreatment of blacks. The sandwich bar is just a continuation of MLK's naan bread pun and also maybe because MLK was known to be a bit chunky.
"I'm not thinking you shall overcome THIS, Junior!" is a reference to the protest song/spiritual "We Shall Overcome" that was one of the major songs of the American Civil Rights Movement in MLK's time. Birmingham is a major city in the South (Alabama) and the focus of one of the SBLC's major successful protests. So a historical reference AND a fat joke ;)
"No shoes, no shirt, no service" was this policy a lot of business had that became really common in the 60's and 70's to keep hippies out of their stores and restaurants
Yeah, but they are not called "junior". They just name them and put numbers on them as soon as they become Kings. Which is something that may very well stem from Roman times when influential families named their kids Primus, Secundus, Octavia etc. and let the family name speak for itself
There is a difference between 'The First/I' & 'The Second/II' and Senior & Junior. I'm a 'The Fourth/IV' myself and I still don't always get all the nuances.
“I’m still gonna serve ya!” is also a play on words of saying to someone you’re battling “You’ve been served!” after an especially good slam on them. I’m probably not explaining it well, maybe check out an Urban Dictionary.
It's a continuation of the idea of getting your "just desserts" which means that you deserve whatever happens to you as a consequence to your actions. Thus, rappers would slam their opponents, "serve them their just dessert" because they feel that their opponent DESERVES to get insulted/dissed. You can fact check me if you like, that's simply the explanation that makes the most sense to me
One famous thing that Gandhi once said when Christians showed up to convert him to Christianity is, "I like your Jesus, just not your Christianity." I think what Gandhi was trying to say was, "You've lost your way from what was once originally preached by him handed down to you in the 66 books you read." Meaning, they should take another couple reads through it. However, on that whole first opening Gandhi verse I think he won the whole battle. Reason being is because he basically said not only did MLK copy and past and plagiarizer him, but everyone else that came before him as well, like the Protestant Reformation Martin Luther and Jesus and etc. In that same bit, he said that MLK can't say anything without copying and pasting, and has nothing to say that's original within the subject. To back this up even further that MLK has nothing original to say take a look at what Jesus said in Matt 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21. Though it is prophetic in what he said at the time he said it, he said, "Nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom." What else do you think he meant when he said that? Because in the Greek it literally means, "Ethnicity shall rise against ethnicity and race against race." When Jesus said that, ethnicity problems and racism was unheard of. Back then people didn't care where you were from and what the color of your skin was. To them it was normal and they thought nothing of it. All that mattered to them was what land you lived on and how profitable it was. In truth the land that was lived on is actually all that mattered to the Europeans when they started enslaving Africans. Africa still is to this day a rich and profitable land. It was only a means to an end at the time because Europe was not very profitable at the time in any way. I will try to explain this one more time here so people understand that they have been tricked into thinking that it was a racist thing that happened. What do you think the "N word" means? To call someone that means that they are stupid, ignorant, arrogant, fool and etc; nothing racist about it. So what do you think they meant when they called Africans that? They meant that they were fools for being so arrogant in thinking that their kings could show off their power that they owned someone and could give them away like that in thinking the tactic wouldn't be used against them to depopulate Africa so it could be conquered and pillaged for its resources. That they are also ignorant toward the situation of what is going on and unwilling to learn the truth that it's not a racist situation, stupid because they are without the knowledge so if they want to take it as a racist thing then it will be used against them, even going so far as to let them think the word itself is racist, rewriting what dictionaries say the definition is, and etc. To keep them distracted from the truth. The tactic of, "Watch this hand over here while I smash your face in with the other." Go back far enough and you'll find the true definition of the word. Again, ignorant and unwilling to accept and to learn the truth and remain stupid of the situation. Sounds like what Peter said, "They are willingly ignorant". He didn't mean this as only toward the modern day scientists and etc when he said that, he was also talking to those who don't want the truth of what is happening in the world. However, when it did turn into something that was racist is when the Catholic pope of Rome said that they were the cursed race because of their colored skin and said it was alright to enslave them which was at a later time. Then way later when books like, Theory of an Old Earth and Origin of Species and other books of the like came out, the lowest race of humans were Africans with the theory of evolution and the Out of Africa statements. Seeing a trend yet? Also notice how Rome allied with Germany in WWII. This is directly contrary to what the Bible actually says when considering what the pope and scientists at a later date said. The Bible clearly states that Eve is the mother of all living and from one blood God created all nations to dwell upon the earth; and that everyone originates out of the middle-east, not out of Africa. Japheth went to Europe, Shem to Asia and the Americas, and Ham to Africa. One more thing to think about. There's a big difference between servitude and slavery. What did God do when the Egyptians enslaved the Jews? You know the story. God doesn't take slavery lightly. However, if you owe a debt, and servitude is the only way to pay off the debt, then servitude should last no longer than 7 years per debt. Why do you think the court systems still make people to this day go clean trash from highways and neighborhoods when someone has committed a crime when they have nothing to offer toward a fine and etc? And the master to the servant is to make sure that the servant is in good health, with food in their belly, cloths on their back, and a roof over their head; to make sure they are able to pay off their debts. And yes, the master is to be punished if the punishment of the servant for not fulfilling their payment of the debt causes the lose of the servant's life. And back then it was tooth for tooth, eye for an eye, blood for blood, and life for life. So if the master's punishment brought death to their servant it meant the master must now pay with their life. Many people have been fooled into thinking the Bible is a racist book because the slave owners in the Americas had what are called Slaver's Bibles made. They would have entire verses, passages, chapters, and books removed that are against slavery from the Bible to make it look as if it was alright to do what they did. The book of Exodus is not even present in those Bibles for example because of the contents within and what it says. Just some food for thought, people.
It's really strange to me that you try to relate everything back to the Bible. I mean, if you're a believer I guess that makes sense, but it still feels very weird because you make connections that I think are wrong or at least very very exaggerated. The whole part about the human species not coming from Africa but from the Middle East... Even as a believer, why would you refer to the Bible on that question? The fact is that anthropology, a serious field of study that uses the scientific method just as much as any other, has brought consensus around the theory that our species does in fact originate from East Africa, from an area around modern-day Ethiopia. Rejecting such overwhelming evidence and instead believing a two thousand year old book (that by the way has had so many different interpretations over time that it seems hard to believe it's some kind of divine message meant to be understood and followed by the whole of humankind), that for me is choosing to be blind.
@@odysseus231 I am only saying this out of respect for those who do have faith in the Bible, because you it is just blind faith. The funny part about what you said, and no, not a haha funny, but more like a "funny word that word funny"; is what they kept from you when telling you a bunch of the truth in a "science" textbook to make what they are saying as true to believe their point of view. For example, did they ever teach you about the equilibrium of the earth? Of course they didn't, why would anyone talk about that in a "science" classroom when they are trying to present and teach a specific viewpoint. There's more to the story than what they shared with you, and most teachers are only parroting what they have been taught, so it's no fault of their own. Reason being is because they then can't talk about radiometric dating methods and "how well they work". Yeah, sure, radiometric dating methods work well, that is until someone brings up the subject of the equilibrium of the earth; because the only way for radiometric dating methods to work correctly is if the earth is at equilibrium. Equilibrium is the state at which something's rate of gain is equal to its rate of decay. Knowing this, now I must tell you, that we have known for quite some time now based on the mass of the earth and etc., that it would only take the earth approximately 30,000 (i.e. give or take a few) years to come to equilibrium. It hasn't done so yet and it is approximately 24,000 years away from coming to equilibrium. That would then mean, backed up by polonium 216 halos found in every square inch of granite rock across the globe; and has a decay rate of about 3 minutes, and also means that the granite rock would have needed to be completed solid when the polonium 216 decayed to preserve the halos, and any other view must explain how every square inch of bedrock granite solidified nearly instantaneously across the the globe and the polonium 216 decayed synchronistically at the same time into polonium 214; that the earth is exactly as the Bible depicts in age, 6k, and also would then suggest that Gen 1:1 is true as well.
"slumdog skillionare" is a reference to the film "slumdog millionaire". Instead of being a millionaire in terms of money, he is saying that he is a millionaire in terms of how skilled he is.
I'm really digging your content man, keep up the good work. Btw might I recommend a video called "Fast Food in the USSR" by NFKRZ. It's a pretty good video to watch
I think MLK takes this one "I got so much street cred, they write my name on the sign" "I'll make you eat your words so you can break the fast" And my personal favorite: "I'd ring you for tech support, but I got a 'No-Bell' prize" Plus Jordan Peele can pull off the MLK look better than Keegan doing Ghandi
How is a "you're from India" joke the best? The goal imo is to diss a PERSON. Things towards their gender, skincolor, country of origin is something I take points away from. If a diss can be used against everyone it's not a diss toward that person imo.
@@Londronable it's not just about disses. It's about lyricism, the setup, the context, the delivery, etc. It's a multifunctional joke. He's poking fun at India, ghandi's home. He's boasting about having a Nobel prize. He's using a skillful double entendre. Finally, Peele's delivery in King's voice worked really well over Key's attempt at an Indian accent. Disses aren't everything
The non violent was a play on naan, a type of Indian bread. Also the “stay away from the ho’s” was another play on words because protesters were often sprayed with fore hoses, so he’s saying “stay away from the hose.”
One line I think that is overlooked. When MLK is saying I'd call you up for tech support. Well that's a jab at tech services phone operators are a lot of times Indian. But that second line about a no bell prize. I think the word play is on the Bell Phone Company which was a big provider for landlines back then. The fandom page for erb breaks down a bunch, but I doubt they had my Bell word play in mind. I thought of it because here in South Carolina, my old landline was BellSouth.
The tech support line, is a play on calling for tech support, Gandhi being Indian, but then also the Nobel prize line is based on “no bell prize” because Bell was THE major telephone company in America in those days
Just as a side note, even with no words or lines, the woman in MLK's posse so impressed Epic Lloyd & Nice Peter, they specifically brought her back later in a leading role, as Oprah Winfrey (versus Ellen Degeneres)
slumdog skillionaire is also a reference to slumdog learning where if you solved enough questions without battling people you get a coin of gandhi's face and the title slumdog skillioinaire
you are the first that caught the "I fought the caste system but you still cannot touch this (untouchables)" line. Also slumdog skillionaire is a wordplay towards the "slumdog millionaire" movie
Grits are cornmeal or hominy boiled in milk and served with a pat of butter and sometimes cheese so yeah they can be pretty fattening. It's pretty popular in the South. Also, the reference to the "no bell prize" coupled with the tech support jab refers to the Nobel prize and also the Bell Telephone company who had a massive monopoly in the States up until about 30-40 years ago.
Hello Sir. I'm from India. What you said about *caste system* is slightly incorrect. Brahmin, Kshatriya, Baishya and Sudra these four are the division of superiority, it’s called *Varna*, not the *caste*. Caste system is different from that Varna. But casteism came from Varna though.
Gandhi never fought caste system ,he stopped someone who tried to stop it (Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar) , Gandhi admired the caste system and he thought that caste system is very essential to society.
To be served in the colloquial sense is to be dissed or beaten in a competition, and that's what they're going for here. "Ho" is American slang for "whore," also applied to any loose women, and fire hoses were often used against marchers during the Civil Rights movement. So he's saying MLK should avoid fire hoses and women of uncertain morals.
“Everything you preach, I said it first, you should jot down these words plagiarize my whole verse” that made Gandhi win for me, which is a close 2nd to Gandhi’s last words in the video, he won
It's actually the other way around. A lot of Hindi words made there way into the English language, with the British ruling over the much more civilized people at that time.

This might be minor, but I wouldn't call MLK a "priest". "Priest" is usually the term for used for Eastern orthodox or Catholic clergymen. Protestant clergy are usually, in my experience, called pastors.
@@richietribe9487 Maybe its a regional or religious sect thing. I'm from the mid-west and have heard preacher some but pastor a lot more. To be clear, my mom is Lutheran and I have never heard their clergymen refered to as preachers. My dad is catholic, which probably plays a role in why I know the difference between the terms.
@@richietribe9487 According to a quick google search, "preacher" refers to anyone who delivers the sermon or homily. "Pastor" is specifically the leader of the congregation. Since, ime, at least Lutheran churches can have multiple preachers with one as the "senior pastor" at the same time, it makes since to have a separate term for the head one. Simply put, alll pastors are preachers but not all preachers are pastors. Oddly, the Lutheran church I went to never used preacher but senior pastor instead.

"I'll make you eat your words so you can break the fast"
And my personal favorite:
"I'd ring you for tech support, but I got a 'No-Bell' prize"
Plus Jordan Peele can pull off the MLK look better than Keegan doing Ghandi
Gandhi did have the better lines with multiple meanings and in relation to what he had done.
@@mennograafmans1595 He definitely had good lines like the one about plagiarism, I just think mlk had a better performance overall
Peele is just a better mimic.
How is a "you're from India" joke the best?
The goal imo is to diss a PERSON.
Things towards their gender, skincolor, country of origin is something I take points away from.
If a diss can be used against everyone it's not a diss toward that person imo.
@@Londronable it's not just about disses. It's about lyricism, the setup, the context, the delivery, etc. It's a multifunctional joke. He's poking fun at India, ghandi's home. He's boasting about having a Nobel prize. He's using a skillful double entendre. Finally, Peele's delivery in King's voice worked really well over Key's attempt at an Indian accent.
Disses aren't everything
Another history teacher enters the UA-cam scene love watching these professionals see the creative works made based on what they teach or practice
Junior and senior are common in English speaking countries
The non violent was a play on naan, a type of Indian bread. Also the “stay away from the ho’s” was another play on words because protesters were often sprayed with fore hoses, so he’s saying “stay away from the hose.”
One line I think that is overlooked. When MLK is saying I'd call you up for tech support. Well that's a jab at tech services phone operators are a lot of times Indian. But that second line about a no bell prize. I think the word play is on the Bell Phone Company which was a big provider for landlines back then. The fandom page for erb breaks down a bunch, but I doubt they had my Bell word play in mind. I thought of it because here in South Carolina, my old landline was BellSouth.
there's actually a ERB wiki that explains the lines.
The tech support line, is a play on calling for tech support, Gandhi being Indian, but then also the Nobel prize line is based on “no bell prize” because Bell was THE major telephone company in America in those days
Hello essek
I was here since 500 something subscribers
Your channel grew fast
I love your channel
flatten your style like bread, naan violence. Naan is Indian flatbread.
Oh, I did not know that. Thanks for explaining! :)
Just as a side note, even with no words or lines, the woman in MLK's posse so impressed Epic Lloyd & Nice Peter, they specifically brought her back later in a leading role, as Oprah Winfrey (versus Ellen Degeneres)
The "no bell prize" line is most surely making a reference to the inventor of the telephone Graham Bell
I love these! It's nice to see an outside perspective on the great insults/history that ERB puts out there.
Nice Peter and Epic Lloyd are amazing, but these lines are such pure Key and Peele I doubt the ERB guys had much to do with them.
good vid.
I like about this kind of reaction. Not like exaggerating laughs and screams about hoooooow good the video was, but historical check about it.
slumdog skillionaire is also a reference to slumdog learning where if you solved enough questions without battling people you get a coin of gandhi's face and the title slumdog skillioinaire
you are the first that caught the "I fought the caste system but you still cannot touch this (untouchables)" line.
Also slumdog skillionaire is a wordplay towards the "slumdog millionaire" movie
In Hungary we have Junior (ifjabb, ifj.) and Senior (idősebb, id.) but we put it before the names. :)
Good stuff bro 👌🏽
Four varnas
Brahmin
Kshatriyas
Vaisyas
Shudras
Dalit : untouchables.
At this point I watch peoples reactions as an excuse to hear ERB videos again.
Grits are cornmeal or hominy boiled in milk and served with a pat of butter and sometimes cheese so yeah they can be pretty fattening. It's pretty popular in the South. Also, the reference to the "no bell prize" coupled with the tech support jab refers to the Nobel prize and also the Bell Telephone company who had a massive monopoly in the States up until about 30-40 years ago.
7:07 it's Brahmin
I'm glad you picked up on the Martin Luther bar cause most reactors miss that
There's that meme about Civil rights leaders that have streets named after them always have more violence
Hello Sir. I'm from India. What you said about *caste system* is slightly incorrect. Brahmin, Kshatriya, Baishya and Sudra these four are the division of superiority, it’s called *Varna*, not the *caste*. Caste system is different from that Varna. But casteism came from Varna though.
Most businesses in the U.S., especially ones that deal with food, will not allow people to come in if the have no shirt or shoes on.
In the US they can still refuse servic for no shoe, no shirt.
I really hate how little was taught about both of them in my school, they were both interesting characters
I love your oration!
Gandhi never fought caste system ,he stopped someone who tried to stop it (Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar) , Gandhi admired the caste system and he thought that caste system is very essential to society.
The shoes/shirt thing is still around, but it's about the health code. Ain't nobody want your pit hair or foot fungus in the room they are eating.
HAHAHHAHAHAHA, nice! :D
I can recommend this epicrapbattlesofhistory.fandom.com/wiki/Gandhi_vs_Martin_Luther_King_Jr./Rap_Meanings
3:33 - I always cringe a little at the end when Ghandi's head seems to be sinking down as if he's slowly dropping to his knees.
To be served in the colloquial sense is to be dissed or beaten in a competition, and that's what they're going for here.
"Ho" is American slang for "whore," also applied to any loose women, and fire hoses were often used against marchers during the Civil Rights movement. So he's saying MLK should avoid fire hoses and women of uncertain morals.
Hey I'm new here to the channel I'm a 10 year old boy who loves to learn
Birmingham, Alabama plus ham sandwich...calling MLK fat basically
Important to know that both rappers are best friends (Key and Peele)
“Everything you preach, I said it first, you should jot down these words plagiarize my whole verse” that made Gandhi win for me, which is a close 2nd to Gandhi’s last words in the video, he won
It's actually the other way around. A lot of Hindi words made there way into the English language, with the British ruling over the much more civilized people at that time.
Profesore mogli bi ste da uzmete u jednom videu da odgledate 3 ta Rap Battle-a i za svaki da uzmete po 5 minuta da objasnjavate, mislim da bi bilo mnogo vise zanimljivije,Pozdrav iz Norveshke!
naan bread is a flat bread common in the middle east. the birmingham sandwhich has no relation to anything its just to help the flow of the bttle
Birmingham was a street he protested on, sandwich part was just keeping the flow.
Wegen dem Senior und Junior, wir haben einen solchen Fall in unserer Feuerwehr. (Österreich/Steiermark)
I love this one because both pacifists never outright insult each other it's pure passive agressive banter.
I just want to talk about that MLK Jr didn't die from getting shot. He died in the hospital after that from being asphyxiated
That is, at this time, an unconfirmed conspiracy theory. The evidence is largely heresay.
naan bread is totally flat.
the top class is called the brahmins
Wasn’t it 1949?
Why is it 20 min? The vid is 2 min tho?
ICH HABE EIN TRAUM
i hope i got it right my German is rusty. Might have missed an umlaut
No Umlaut, but it's "einen" not "ein". :)
hello europian brother
where are you from
This might be minor, but I wouldn't call MLK a "priest". "Priest" is usually the term for used for Eastern orthodox or Catholic clergymen. Protestant clergy are usually, in my experience, called pastors.
*preachers
@@richietribe9487 Maybe its a regional or religious sect thing. I'm from the mid-west and have heard preacher some but pastor a lot more. To be clear, my mom is Lutheran and I have never heard their clergymen refered to as preachers. My dad is catholic, which probably plays a role in why I know the difference between the terms.
@@richietribe9487 According to a quick google search, "preacher" refers to anyone who delivers the sermon or homily. "Pastor" is specifically the leader of the congregation. Since, ime, at least Lutheran churches can have multiple preachers with one as the "senior pastor" at the same time, it makes since to have a separate term for the head one. Simply put, alll pastors are preachers but not all preachers are pastors. Oddly, the Lutheran church I went to never used preacher but senior pastor instead.
@@richietribe9487 We also used "pastor" for the lower level preachers too.
@@gregorycourtney1532 Thank you. I'm not a native english speaker, so I got a bit confused
cool
Your impression sounds more like Barack Obama. lol
You're original video link goes to the wrong video.
Does your search bar not work, hon?
Caste system still around a bit unfortunately.
Gandhi
Dude friendly advice: first watch it without stopping more than needed and THEN go back ans breaking down. It's a rap, u r gonna be stopping every 2 secs otherwise
That's some passive aggressive pacifist behavior
Vorab ich möchte nicht flamen. Sondern nur konstruktive Kritik geben. Wenn man den Titel liest, geht man davon aus das ein Geschichtslehrer die doch sehr genialen Punshlines von ERB erkennt und erklärt. Leider muss ich sagen, das das Niveau des Erkennens gerade mal auf hohem Grundwissen beruht, die fehlenden Englischkenntnisse ergeben dann den Rest. Vielleicht vorher nochmal entsprechende Lektüren nachlesen oder andere Reaktionsvideos ansehen. Auch, wenn die Reaktionen dann nicht mehr ganz echt sind, würde es die Videos aufwerten denn so sind es einfach nur Reaktionsvideos und den Zusatztitel Geschichtslehrer würde ich mir wegen der Peinlichkeit des fehlenden Wissens ersparen. Und ja bei deinen anderen Videos ist es genauso ... leider
Nobody watches ERB anymore
Gandhi
