Jamal, you need to check out Ray Stevens - 'Ballad of the Blue Cyclone part 1 and 2'. Also Ray Stevens 'The Haircut Song' Both are really good if you need a laugh!
The funny thing about it family makes the epic rap battle so good is that they speak facts I mean taking example look Disney owns practically everything bro ESPN to freaking to channel 12 how they even on Fox I mean those bastards are going to own everything I'm surprised they don't own USA yet like they're just thinking about what are we buy next like it's crazy they really are the juggernauts they're the Illuminati they're the Walmart of freaking TV they cannot be stopped and they'll buy anything and everything it's just a matter of time bro I know if you work for them you set
The funniest part of all of this, is that Disney owned ERB when they made this "...own the whole series". They're independent now, paying out of pocket and relying on things like Patreon. So if we want to see more, we should head over and throw them some support.
yeah, that was the actual "joke", Peter and Lloyd used Maker Studios for ERB and some of their other work (like DIs Raps for Hire). Disney bought Maker studies and it became or merged into Disney Digital. ERB was under contract with them via the Maker contract. Supposedly this was a bit of a shot at Disney buying everything up. Neither Maker nor Disney ever had any controlling interest in ERB. That belongs entirely to Nice Peter and Epic Lloyd. They left Disney Digital after season 5 and formed their own studio to continue ERB and their own projects. While supporting them ia patreon is nice, ERB makes a ton of money. Nice Peter and Epic Lloyd have a combined network worth of between 5 and 10 million dollars. Most of that is due to ERB and its like 15 million subscribers. My only point of dispute if there is one, is that ERB is not being limited due to lack of money since they left disney.
It was also the last battle of the last season under makers studio and they already knew they were getting cancelled were throwing some hard shade at Disney lol
I think it is safe to say that Walt OWNED this one. "Disneyland-lord of your intellectual property" is such a beautiful line. Especially since it is Disney's fault that copywrite lasts forever now.ff
When you watch this look at the expression on Stan’s and Jim’s faces when Walt says, “my empire of joy.” It’s a look of sheer terror. Like their thinking, “what did we do, selling out to him?”
Reminds me of the ending to "full metal jacket" where the troops are marching through a total hellscape of a burned down town singing the Mickey mouse theme song. Who IS the greatest mouse in all of history?
Jim Henson in a rap battle is like having Mr. Rogers as an opponent. It’s so hard to even “go there”. Fuck Walt, he is savage. That doesn’t bother me at all. Jim Henson is a legend.
I never noticed that before... Ok, I got one in return for pointing that out for us: Ever notice what the first four bars of Walt’s rhymes with? ERB won’t say that word, because Disney has been known to sue (for libel, slander, or defamation) anyone who tries to imply that the word applies to Disney. So they left that word out of the battle, even though Disney’s legal battles have put a lot of work into defining anti-trust laws. I guess their two best bars in this battle were unspoken bars.
@@SethLooks Yeah. Disney purchased Maker Studios during that season (Season 4). This video was the Season 4 Finale. So this was Lloyd and Peter's middle finger to Disney as they walked into "The House of Mouse." After Season 5, ERB went on an Extended Hiatus so they could start up a Patreon and acquire the funds necessary to ditch "The Mouse" and go independent. Which they did. When they came back from the Extended Hiatus for Season 6, Lloyd announced that they were "completely independent."
Disney also owns Muppets. The rest of the Jim Henson company seems to be divided among other companies. HBO has Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock. Netflix did a Dark Crystal series. I think Disney also owns Dinosaurs. I don't know where Mirror Mask and Labyrinth rights are at.
Having lived through a lot of the references, I thought Henson killed it. There were some deep digs there, though. I was impressed to see the nods to Jack Kirby and SNL.
For those who’ve never seen the first season of SNL, it was a slightly to very different show depending on the episode with regular segments dedicated to pre- muppets puppets by Jim Henson, Billy Crystal impersonations and Franken and Davis sketches. Ready- For - Primetime- Players were almost afterthoughts in the show until people wanted more of them and less of the other stuff. The only thing that’s survived from season 1 is the musical acts and the RFP players.
Fun Fact: ERB early days was made by Maker studios. Kassem G's company. ERB got popular and Disney bought Maker Studios. Hence the line "in fact I own this whole series". ERB is now independent and get funded on Patreon.
Brother Jamal.. You need to check out Ray Stevens - 'Ballad of the Blue Cyclone part 1 and 2'. Also Ray Stevens 'The Haircut Song' Both are really good if you need a laugh!
This is one of the best, Jamal! So glad you got around to it! In time for Jim Henson's birthday, too. Is it just me, or does the Henson impression slightly sound like Owen Wilson?? Lol The muppets were as big a part of my childhood as Marvel and Disney so this was amazing! Disney bought the Muppets and the Jim Henson Co. in the early 2000s, and I was so angry they sold out to them! But after Jim Henson's sad (and preventable) death, his children still technically run the company. I guess they were doing what it takes to still be here. *shrug Disney owns Muppets, Marvel, star wars and ABC, just to name a few.
Hey Jamel, how are you doing? I was thinking...if you're looking for something new to try how about a two song comparison? The original versus a cover...which one do you and your viewers prefer? If you're interested here are a couple to start with. Both are Rolling Stones originals. Jumpin' Jack Flash - Stones version versus Johnny Winter And Live. The second is Under My Thumb - Stones versus Streetheart. There are lots more for you to come up with or your viewers to suggest. Hope you like the idea. Keep on doing what you do.
this is by far the most somber erb i have ever watched. i remember when it came out......i was enjoying it.....and then the reality of disney hit me like a ton of bricks.... if you notice it doenst end like the other battles. no "who won? who's next? YOU decide!!"....just a dark beat......to make you feel hopeless.....
See, there are diss's in these ERB that even though I am well versed in the histories of the characters represented therein I'd have never caught if not for likes of these channels, such as the dis Stan Lee gave to Henson with the "like watching a sunset at noon". I just wanted to express how much I appreciate these channels, including this one, for that.
This one hurts now that Stan is really gone. Hilariously, at the time that was made, Disney did own ERB, but they don't own it now. Thankfully. Walt came in and owned them because reasons.
I'm guessing ERB didn't have the heart to make either Jim or Stan the "villain" of this battle so they brought in a third. Also...Fraggle Rock is still awesome.
In real life I like Jim Henson better since his show played on PBS, but Stan Lee won between the two. Boy, did they make Walt Disney scary, some employees of his liked working for him, and others said he was not nice.
Don't know if I'm late to comment, however the line "In fact I own this hole series" is legitimately accurate. Disney literally OWNS E.R.B.O.H. AS well they have a HUGE hold on the B.i.th.S. 'Super Hero Beatdown series.
you know what the worst thing about that battle is? the way Disney is portrayed in the video is only getting more and more relevant thats incredibly sad
Henson was the most sympathetic (because Henson), but...yeah. he's too nice to be able to win a contest of dissing. Edit: As for Disney, I'm conflicted. On the one hand, soulless corporate giant. On the other, they don't dig themselves deeper into shit like Time-Warner.
"I'm walt disney" ...that's it, game over, man game over that's it... it doesn't matter who or what as soon as those 3 circles represent that's it it's done, nobody wins. Welcome to the start of the cyberpunk era.

The funny thing about it family makes the epic rap battle so good is that they speak facts I mean taking example look Disney owns practically everything bro ESPN to freaking to channel 12 how they even on Fox I mean those bastards are going to own everything I'm surprised they don't own USA yet like they're just thinking about what are we buy next like it's crazy they really are the juggernauts they're the Illuminati they're the Walmart of freaking TV they cannot be stopped and they'll buy anything and everything it's just a matter of time bro I know if you work for them you set
👍
Is it just me, or is Disney the scariest portrayal of a character to appear on ERB. And you just watched the Hannibal Lecter one!
Very scary!!!
Disney is the scariest thing to happen to culture and entertainment ever, so it makes sense.
I'm incline to agree. You can tell just how much they resented being owned by Disney at the time.
I half expected Walt to pull a hood over his heas and start quoting Palpatine.
@@philjones3824 it's funny because I half expected palpatine to pull his hood off and reveal Walt Disney in the last star wars movie
The funniest part of all of this, is that Disney owned ERB when they made this "...own the whole series".

Fuck Disney. I'm so glad they went independent.
@@thtadthtshldntbe if anything, Disney limited and controlled what they could say (*cough* Bruce vs Bruce)
This is one of my most favorites. First time I saw it the “beautiful sunset at noon” line almost made me cry.
All that part hits a lot harder aften Stan Lee passing as well.
"We all have a time to go"
I feel this was ERB's way of paying tribute to Stan and JIm, and pointing out how fucked Disney is with all the things we love.
It was also the last battle of the last season under makers studio and they already knew they were getting cancelled were throwing some hard shade at Disney lol
I think it is safe to say that Walt OWNED this one.
"Disneyland-lord of your intellectual property" is such a beautiful line. Especially since it is Disney's fault that copywrite lasts forever now.ff
I always get the feels in the middle of this. Then Walt goes and fucks it all up, just like all the IPs they buy.
Just like every franchise we ever loved as kids. Isn't growing up fantastic 😭
When you watch this look at the expression on Stan’s and Jim’s faces when Walt says, “my empire of joy.” It’s a look of sheer terror. Like their thinking, “what did we do, selling out to him?”
YEAH!!! Jim's quiet zen flow was cool!
Walt Disney is truly terrifying in this one.
Lol to be fair, he was always a bit terrifying even while alive. XD
I love the MIC line. It gets slept on so hard. So many dont recognize the mickey mouse club setup
Reminds me of the ending to "full metal jacket" where the troops are marching through a total hellscape of a burned down town singing the Mickey mouse theme song. Who IS the greatest mouse in all of history?
Me too! Disney comes in so hard, so dark, and crazy sinister with that MIC/rock the mic properly intro.
M-I-C.......I rock the MIC properly.....K-E-Y.........turning profits I got the KEY.........MICKEY.....that's just stunting on em
Jim Henson in a rap battle is like having Mr. Rogers as an opponent. It’s so hard to even “go there”. Fuck Walt, he is savage. That doesn’t bother me at all. Jim Henson is a legend.
Notice at the end of the battle they didn't say, "Who won?". Because we know who did. Lol
I never noticed that before...
Ok, I got one in return for pointing that out for us:

I guess their two best bars in this battle were unspoken bars.
@@Bobal27 what does it rhyme with?
@@SeraphSeph Monopoly. I thought you’d gather that from anti-trust laws, my bad.
@@Bobal27 I had no clue.
And this was during the time ERB was under Maker Studios (a Disney-owned property) too.
I didn’t know that, the “I own this whole series” line makes more scents now.
@@SethLooks Yeah. Disney purchased Maker Studios during that season (Season 4). This video was the Season 4 Finale.

When they came back from the Extended Hiatus for Season 6, Lloyd announced that they were "completely independent."
Walt was definitely the winner here, but I kinda feel like he should have played as just a frozen head.
A missed opportunity.
Just let it go...
best part about this whole battle is how they didnt even ask "who won" cuz we all know we all lost. lol
Exactly. Who wins? Disney corporation share holders- and no one else.
Disney also owns Muppets. The rest of the Jim Henson company seems to be divided among other companies. HBO has Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock.
Netflix did a Dark Crystal series. I think Disney also owns Dinosaurs. I don't know where Mirror Mask and Labyrinth rights are at.
Mirror mask, labyrinth, and dark crystal are still owned by the Henson company. Just fyi.
Walt Disney is the only guy who can step into a rap battle and win just by flexing.
What the fuck are you supposed to say to the man who owns you, your thoughts, and all media you consume? Nothing.
The mouse going around collecting all the properties in monopoly
Awww. Just in time for Henson's birthday. I hope you don't cry for this one. I did.
Having lived through a lot of the references, I thought Henson killed it. There were some deep digs there, though. I was impressed to see the nods to Jack Kirby and SNL.

It's the *Not* Ready For Prime Time Players
@@21CCommunIT forgot the “Not”. Thanks
One of the best ERB's
Oh, Yeah! Good Morning! Been checking for these. Keep digging. It just keeps working. Here we go!
I am so glad you got around to this one. This was my first and I think best of the battles. Nice to be sharing all these with you.☺
currently binge watching all ERB reactions, thanks for doing this ! i love it ♥
Fun Fact: ERB early days was made by Maker studios. Kassem G's company. ERB got popular and Disney bought Maker Studios. Hence the line "in fact I own this whole series". ERB is now independent and get funded on Patreon.
So glad you are enjoying these. They are awesome!
I loved this! Thanks for introducing me to these battles through your channel.
Been waiting on this one
Jim Henson's beat is probably my favourite they've ever used just so mellow
One of my favourites I just wish I could see it on my 55 inch TV. Every other reaction I've seen on other channels have a much larger video.
Go for it Jamel! I love how happy erb videos make you!👍
Brother Jamal.. You need to check out Ray Stevens - 'Ballad of the Blue Cyclone part 1 and 2'.
Also Ray Stevens 'The Haircut Song'
Both are really good if you need a laugh!
Bro, 'Sitting Up With the Dead.'
Ah yes! The *Other* One I've been waiting for you to watch!
Keep these coming. They're great.
This is one of the best, Jamal! So glad you got around to it! In time for Jim Henson's birthday, too.

On this season 4 finale is the battle of the two different children's entertainers
I would give Henson extra points for giving Kermit the lines as well
"It kinda look like freddie mercury"
*EpicLloyd giggles intensify*
Another fave!
I wanted to hear a slam about Ms. Piggy whipping the Hulk like Thanos.
This vid was great good quality but I wish the vid square was a bit bigger I had to squint to see it TvT
This is my favorite ERB. I miss these guys.
They are still around. Just that Covid really slowed them down lately.
I love this one!!!
The only ERB to ever actually leave me depressed. Lol

very nice job
I live this one 🖤
Disney also own the production of company that produces ERB :(
RiP Stan and Jim :( 💔😭😭
Stan started out hard, Jim was more clever. But in the end, Walt Disney owned them both.
When you said he looked like Freddie Mercury, beer went through my nose. Thanks. :D
this is by far the most somber erb i have ever watched.
i remember when it came out......i was enjoying it.....and then the reality of disney hit me like a ton of bricks....
if you notice it doenst end like the other battles. no "who won? who's next? YOU decide!!"....just a dark beat......to make you feel hopeless.....
Remember Disney is where culture goes to die
Walt wins, Walt ALWAYS wins, that's what having the best lawyers will do for you.

Woah. Walt Disney was straight up terrifying.
This one and Einstein vs. Hawking are my favorites.
I don't know. The "empire of joy" he mentioned sounded like the situation from the game "We Happy Few".
Walt Disney just top ropped em with pure savagery.
See, there are diss's in these ERB that even though I am well versed in the histories of the characters represented therein I'd have never caught if not for likes of these channels, such as the dis Stan Lee gave to Henson with the "like watching a sunset at noon".

If you haven't already you gotta do bob Ross epic rap battle!! Best one
This one hurts now that Stan is really gone.

M-I-C
I rock the "Mic" properly
K-E-Y
Turning profits, I've got the "Key"!
Walt's first line was fucking legendary and everyone misses it >.>
Watching this a few days after Stan passed was hard
One of the best ERB's. Still
Is there a Spiderman fan who can tell me why the webs come from the wrist as that's not how spiders do it.
MASTER OF MUPPETS
Don't know if I'm late to comment, however the line "In fact I own this hole series" is legitimately accurate. Disney literally OWNS E.R.B.O.H. AS well they have a HUGE hold on the B.i.th.S. 'Super Hero Beatdown series.
Henson's second verse always makes me tear up.
T H A T W A S N O S T A L G I C 😀👍
They didn't ask who won in this one... because we all lose.
Always felt Walt ruined this one
Walt laid the smackdown lol!
Stan had the best insults and good flows but Walt won.
Walt "owned" it. Lol keep up the good work.
He bought marvel, Muppets (sesame street Kermit properties) and a ton more EVEN ERB studio
Hard to debate Walt Disney's FACTS. He owns them both shut up and get back to work 😂 And make me some 💵
Do ERB Bruce Lee if you want to watch someone get bodied
you know what the worst thing about that battle is?
the way Disney is portrayed in the video is only getting more and more relevant
thats incredibly sad
Freddy Mercury? … I thought it was Borat 🤣
Henson was the most sympathetic (because Henson), but...yeah. he's too nice to be able to win a contest of dissing. Edit: As for Disney, I'm conflicted. On the one hand, soulless corporate giant. On the other, they don't dig themselves deeper into shit like Time-Warner.
I have to give it to Walt Disney... AS A DEAD MAN YES HE OWN THE PLANET. I think the next one you should do is Mother Teresa vs. Sigmund Freud
Walt looks like Borat.
Spielberg VS Hithcock!!!
Disney owns, Marvel, The Muppets, Star Wars & Pixar. ✌
Disney needs to be stopped.
"I'm walt disney" ...that's it, game over, man game over that's it... it doesn't matter who or what as soon as those 3 circles represent that's it it's done, nobody wins. Welcome to the start of the cyberpunk era.
Lol Walt Disney is so creepy in this one
Yeah, cuz Disney owns it all, even the rights to ERB.
Stan had it in the bag though i did like Jims mellow flow and Kermit! Lol but I think Disney kinda stole it
I know you don't react to things you already know, how about eyedea, or POS, or Aesop. Check em out if you haven't before.
Hail Stan
Walt Disney is the undisputed winner
Also Jim Henson was bought by Disney
lol ok Walt FTW
Why is this erb getting so much attention now
Isnt morgan freeman immortal🤣
