Italians are passionate plus I guess Columbus was sick of people harshly criticizing everything he did and blaming him for all the misfortune that happened to the native peoples of the New World after he died. Sure, he was far from saintly and was an arrogant jerk who was a crappy colonial governor but his actions DID lead to a new era in Human history. Besides, lots of people in Columbus's time both whites and non-whites had beliefs that we'd regard as hateful and disgusting, he was simply a product of his time period and better suited to being an explorer then a governor.
@@girlgarde a "bad governer" you say . When he arrived there were 200,000 people on an island , after he left for good there were 200. He enslaved natives as miners and cut of their arm if they did not make a thimble full of gold each, he sold young girls and the women as sex slaves for profit and when some natives protested he massacred a village , pitching babies against stone walls killiing pregnant women , and having competitions on who could skewer men in a single thrust. Genocidal maniac. Period
@@ruairiodonohoe2533 Yes, he was a crappy and a very harsh governor as you and history have pointed out. I was never trying to waive away his crimes, I was only saying that his accidental discovery of the Americas changed the course of Human history forever for better or for worse. Sadly, the natives he butchered in his quest for gold and who died of diseases brought by him and his crews ended up getting killed in the collision of cultures which is tragic.
One of the most underrated battles. Got a lot going for it. Sick disses. Lloyd rapping the way William Shatner portrayed Kirk on the original series. And the word “Klingon” is written in Klingon language in the subtitles
Kirk's flow must've been tough to record. As an artist I don't know how you could do such a stuttered flow and still keep in time somehow. Props Lloyd for rapping it and all those who wrote it
I'd say at least a good like 3 weeks. One week of just memorizing the whole thing and starting to try to get it down, then at least a week to get it to flow right, THEN another week of recording it without any cuts. Possibly longer. Especially since this was a while back when they weren't that good at this stuff yet. Plus the expressions? Like I could get the lyrics and rythem down in about 3 days or so. But the movements and expressions? That's like another at least two weeks. (But this is coming from someone that has no formal training, just an odd natural nack for all of it because of my family)
He said "Arrivederci, I'mma leave before this battle begins" and I bullshit you not my screen went black and I thought it was part of the video. Turns out my phone died 😂😂😂
So what? It sounds like shit. Everybody knows that's what he sounded like it's one of the most popular things to impersonate. I don't understand why every single person since 2011 has to be like "WELL ACTUALLY HE SOUNDED LIKE THAT" No shit. You're not a special snowflake for noticing that. Do you know why Columbus is speaking English and not Italian? Because how the rap sounds is more important than fucking authenticity lmfao.
@@Sin22 Columbus has an Italian accent, Kirk has the weird way of speaking. He raps in English because the channel is in English. Rapping in another language doesnt "make the rap sound bad". They've done verses in another language on other battles when appropriate, they chose not to in this one because it wouldn't add much to it in general. The way a character in a movie acts is important however, and that was added because it seemed more appropriate to them.
The way that Lloyd uses Shatner's acting to create one of the most unique flows in the series is definitely what makes this one of my favorite battles.
@@arseface2k934 Same. My family hates me cuz I used to love repeating the whole battle on loop. Also, I remembered that many people were discontent with Kirk's style.
@@frowny_brow tbh I could see putting it on loop getting annoying, good thing there's headphones. people who have an issue with kirks rapping don't know who kirk is lol
I was getting divorced and figuring out how to protect three little boys for the drama when this came out. So funny and such a memory anchor for that time. Fast forward to 2023 with two successful adult sons and a beautiful teenage boy and I cry when I see how far we have come from back when this came out. This was the only thing that made me happy back in a difficult time.
"We'll see how Isabella likes my captain's log" That and the classic two-fisted Kirkian punch had me shrieking with laughter. This is HYSTERICAL and Epic Lloyd does one of the very finest Shatners EVER.
As funny as that line is it is kind of irrelevant since Isabella is not Columbus wife. However in historical context Isabella would have the Spanish Inquisition torture Kirk before burning him alive, clearly his speech impediment is the sign of demonic possession. She created the Spanish Inquisition afterall.
'Arrivederci Imma leave before this battle begins'. - - - - *Christopher Columbus doesn't return* Who won? Who's next? U decide! Eeeeeeeeeeepic Rap Battles of History!
By far the best one of these y'all ever made. It just works, not just as comedy but as music; goddamn I could listen to Lloyd as Kirk gliding on that beat all day.
daedra40 I never watch anything when it first comes out. Lol. This is one of my favorites, though. Love the two artists who play these and other characters...think they're among the best on ERBH.
Captain kirk gives the silly, loveable and hilarious lines when Christopher columbus is epic, triumphant and powerful this makes it, in my opinion the most underrated erb
I can’t explain how much I am in love with this ERB. The writing for Columbus is so fucking top notch it’s unbelievable, coupled with Kirks hilarious flow makes for an amazing video.
That line at 1:27 is great: "I am the fabric of history, you are a fictional stain. I'll stick a flag up your ass and claim you for Spain." Shit had me rolling.
"Arrivederci I'mma leave before this battle begins" "Now, take your genocidal ass off of my bridge" Ironically, the beginning and end lines have me torn between the two.
Christopher Columbus was a Genoan hired by the Castille to discover a route to India but instead ended up in the west indies. (So yea he would be speaking a Italian dialect)
The extent to which he was involved with the genocide is disputable but he was involved some way or another. He was also known for being a brutal tyrant, the reason he was removed as governor of the Indies by the Castilian Crown.
Conor Dowse While he was a tyrant when he was a governor, I still don't see how he is related to a genocide that came way later in parts of the countries he didn't actually visit
Elia Guilio I guess you aren't aware of the genocide of the natives of Hispaniola (The Taino Genocide)??? You know the genocide he was responsible for...... Cos thats what I am referring to. So yes he did commit genocide as governor of the indies.
***** yeah. he did a damn good Shatner impersonation. I also loved that little nod Spock gave when Kirk said "see how Isabella likes my Captain's Log."
I love people. RB with Hitler: "lol" RB with Stalin, Lenin, Putin, etc.: "lol" RB with Columbus: "ermahgerd, what a murderer!" I really do love people.
+666NedFlanders he wasnt even the initial founder or explorer. that distinction would go A: to the people that lived there first, or B: Erik the Red and Amerigo Vespucci. columbus is a worthless, ill-talented, genocidal piece of shit, just like most of europe was in the colonial times.
I watched every episode of the original star trek and don't think they did a good job of emulating it, it was just too emphasised and unrealistic and it ruined the flow of the rap Battle, just my opinion. EDIT:coming back to it a year later I don't think it's nearly as bad and its grown on me, in fact I actually think kirk wins now
I get it, too. When someone speaks to you with the inflections Captain Kirk did, it's perfectly natural to respond with utter confusion as conveyed by his face.
The Captain Kirk impression was perfect, it was a good tribute to how Shatner acts in that series (it was a little bit exaggerated but so is every other great impression). Also, the way he spoke in this video gave him a more unique and interesting flow. He could word his insults better than normal. I remember this video got heavily disliked when it first came out but now people have warmed up to it.
I feel like people hated on this one a lot when it came out, but these days they appreciate it much more. Guess they were weirded out by the Shatner impersonation at first but I honestly like how they rolled with it.
I really liked how Kirk said “ Earth.” But that “ You know rapping with you, it’s not even even fun. It’s like someone setta your brain on stun.” Took me out 😂😂 so much genuineness. Columbus all the way too underrated video in my time.
That is not only an awesome idea, it would be bizarre as hell to watch. Bonus surprise guest rapper: i forget his name, but way back in 1983, Patrick Stewart played a general in David Lynch's adaptation of Frank Herbert's Dune novel. He uttered the immortal line: "Behold, as a wild ass in the desert, go forth I to my work".
"Why don't you boldly go to someplace like India, or any destination you actually set sail for", YOU SPAGHETTI EATING FUCK, how's your spice rack doing, I'll be chilling my spaceship, have fun canoeing." Winner, Kirk.
Yeah he was racist and abusive, but i'm not so sure he wanted to entirely destroy these caribbeans native culture (at least he didn't had that in mind) as his objectives were to trade. Cortes in the other hand, comes with conquer objectives, a prepared army, etc,etc.
As Spaniard i find this pretty funny,the flag that Colon displays so proudly in fact is modern Spain flag,the old has lions and castles.that was the first european flag in America. And yes...William Shatner speaks EXACTLY like that😂
@@OfficialDoctorHawk is the flag of "Reign of Castilla y Aragon" (the seed of our modern Country) and was the very first European flag in American Soil,brave people that because in those times travel to América was like travel to Mars
I love this one because Columbus puts sooo much energy into it. Like he has a personal vendetta against Kirk or something
Splurgabonn Nephlhogg Italians are a passionate people
Like a... wrath, you might say?
Italians are passionate plus I guess Columbus was sick of people harshly criticizing everything he did and blaming him for all the misfortune that happened to the native peoples of the New World after he died.

Have to agree. Back in the day I didn't appreciate how fucking good this was done.
I'd say at least a good like 3 weeks. One week of just memorizing the whole thing and starting to try to get it down, then at least a week to get it to flow right, THEN another week of recording it without any cuts. Possibly longer.

I love em all but this one really matches perfectly with a penultimate battle.
It is rlly strong at the beginning but at the end it’s kinda weak
SPAAAAAAACE~
Okay it's Canon D with a beat what's so special
The way that Lloyd uses Shatner's acting to create one of the most unique flows in the series is definitely what makes this one of my favorite battles.
When Lloyd smiled and nodded through the telescope I died laughing. Looks like he had so much fun as Captain Kirk.

I agree. There is so much shit on Columbus that Kirk could have used to diss him

How bout the artists vs TMNT beat that one is fire
THIS his one and Stephen King vs Edgar Allan Poe are two of my favorites.
Since I made this comment, all the beats mentioned in these replies are amazing ones too. ERB beats are just lit
0:27 - Well, that didn't last long.
0:32 - Oh, never mind then. Back to business.
Columbus had better rap.Kirk had better points
Agreed.
+Ozlem Riby columbus gave small pocks and killed natives o kirk wins
+Archer Laughlin You're supposed to judge them on how the battle went, not things they actually did.
+Zach Mayo Columbus > better rhymes, Kirk > better insults
Kirk won :)
Columbus is the one kid that takes the credit for the project when he was asleep half the time
0:27 wut "Arrivederci Imma leave before this battle begins"
Derpie742 "Cause we both know in the end which of these captains gonna win" Makes sense, right?
Derpie742 Arrivederci means goodbye in italian
CathedralKey9 I know
Derpie742 then why ask
Italy represent
most underrated erb
Anyone saying Kirk lost because he had bad flow has clearly never watched any original Star Trek
I have not watched them either, But I still think he won I just thought Kirk was always drunk..
Siddhant Sharma No, that's how Kirk talks normally. If you disregard that, then Kirk ties with Columbus.
I watched every episode of the original star trek and don't think they did a good job of emulating it, it was just too emphasised and unrealistic and it ruined the flow of the rap Battle, just my opinion. EDIT:coming back to it a year later I don't think it's nearly as bad and its grown on me, in fact I actually think kirk wins now
He rapped so weird
no, he lost cuz 1:26
"You spagetti eating fuck"
I'm done, this'll become my ringtone
"I'll be chilling in my space ship have fun canoeing" Kirk's flow was strong
"You spaghetti eating fuck"
The best insult ever recorded. It's flawless.
1:30
When the Spanish kid gets in an arguement with the Native American kid
¡VIVA!
True-
My friend Jesus says that whenever we get into a fight
Way to racism "Dr"
Spectator of UA-cam bale
¿?
I actually think Kirks flow is so awkward that it becomes perfect
That's actually how Shatner spoke in the original series.
Chayse Waldroff I know
Nobody:
Columbus: *aight imma head out*
Also Columbus: Aight imma head in
For we 3 know which captain’s gonna win
Admit it, Columbus reaction at 1:00 is the the same you had the first time you heard the flow of Captain Kirk
Columbus wins because his face when he said "you know rapping against you its not even fun"
Noah Panoncillo ERB misspelled “against” during that line LMAO
That's because losing never is fun. Lol!
@@Swordsquire no he won
But captain kurk won that’s why he doesn’t want to rap battle against him he will 100% lose
I get it, too. When someone speaks to you with the inflections Captain Kirk did, it's perfectly natural to respond with utter confusion as conveyed by his face.
Anyone re-watching for the new season?
ya
+MEINCWAFT IS BEST GAEM XDDD What is your pic?!?!? XD
+MEINCWAFT IS BEST GAEM XDDD send me the link
Me!
Me As Well
Great, they did the Shatner acting. Amazing rap battle
Considering Columbus Day is being wiped and Shatner is going into space this week, what was old is new again.
Columbus Day is fine, who cares if he killed a bunch of people who didn't?
I feel that this is one of the most underrated ERB’s ever. This is fire 🔥
Spaghetti eating fuck I was laughing so hard
... Put my sword in Sulu... He may like that.... OH MYYYYYY
Your surname best represents your joke.
+Cryp Tic Haha lol
Wow XD
spocks reaction at 1:40 kills me ever time i watch this lmao
The use of the Shatner comma makes this battle all the better.
“Bones. There’s......someone on the wing - some..........thing......”
They need to do Shatner vs Walken!!!!
Captain Nemo Vs Captain Jack Sparrow
yeah they should totally do that!!!!
Nice idea!
Still waiting for it to happen one day
Columbus's rhymes were solid and I honestly think he won but "you spaghetti eating fuck" is just pure gold.
"I am the fabric of history, you are a fictional stain" remains one of my favorite disses of all time 10 years later
8 years,still a masterpiece
@April Lambert Umm,You Are A Loser
Columbus didn't discover America... but he still won.
Kirk OWNED Columbus
finally someone also thinks he won
Even though Kirk often pauses between words, no one ever dares interrupt him.
I dare.
Matthew Wolf shut up nerds I serve justice so eat it
slade wilson My sidekick only comes around
Hello it's for you bill Cosby wants his sweater
Who won, who's next, you decide eeeeeepppppppiiiiiiiiiiiccccccccc rapppp battlesssss of historyyyyy
The Captain Kirk impression was perfect, it was a good tribute to how Shatner acts in that series (it was a little bit exaggerated but so is every other great impression). Also, the way he spoke in this video gave him a more unique and interesting flow. He could word his insults better than normal.
I remember this video got heavily disliked when it first came out but now people have warmed up to it.
When Columbus left after saying his first line ... He already won
He did
i dare to disagree :)
kirk won, lightyears ahead
It was a tie after Kirk's last line
Yes, yes he did.
Polo King For Life the same can be said for kirk...
"You spaghetti eating fuck" is still my favorite ERB line to date.
you so right
I feel like people hated on this one a lot when it came out, but these days they appreciate it much more. Guess they were weirded out by the Shatner impersonation at first but I honestly like how they rolled with it.
I really liked how Kirk said “ Earth.” But that “ You know rapping with you, it’s not even even fun. It’s like someone setta your brain on stun.” Took me out 😂😂 so much genuineness. Columbus all the way too underrated video in my time.
Captain Picard vs Professor Xavier
handwolf yes
Picard vs Han Solo
That is not only an awesome idea, it would be bizarre as hell to watch.
Bonus surprise guest rapper:
i forget his name, but way back in 1983, Patrick Stewart played a general in David Lynch's adaptation of Frank Herbert's Dune novel.
He uttered the immortal line:
"Behold, as a wild ass in the desert, go forth I to my work".
No, Malcom X vs Professor X
Columbus won. It didn't even sound like Kirk was rapping.
"you know rapping against you it's not even fun it's like somebody set your brains on stun" that was it man with that line he won the battle
I always come back to this one, gotta be top 5 beats of all ERB
"rapping agaisnt you"
Fffffffffuuuuuu
Raping*
Ah wait....
Fuck
Wtf
LemonWedge123 mind fuck
+Julian Aumueller Its like somebody put ur brain on stun
“ I'll be chilling in my spaceship, have fun canoeing"
and
“ now take your genocidal ass off my bridge "
are the best ending lines ever
kirk wins
I thought Cortes was the genocidal ass O_O
Sister Flandre Christopher Columbus was considered brutal even for conquistador standards
"Why don't you boldly go to someplace like India,
or any destination you actually set sail for",
YOU SPAGHETTI EATING FUCK, how's your spice rack doing,
I'll be chilling my spaceship, have fun canoeing."
Winner, Kirk.
Yeah he was racist and abusive, but i'm not so sure he wanted to entirely destroy these caribbeans native culture (at least he didn't had that in mind) as his objectives were to trade.
Cortes in the other hand, comes with conquer objectives, a prepared army, etc,etc.
Sister Flandre his objectives were to conquer the lands...that also means come here and stole it from the native tribes
Kirk wins simply because he managed to actually rap like that.
he wasn't even rapping...
Have you ever heard William Shatner trying to "sing"? That's what they were parodying here.
the spainsh is better
+Alejandro Reguera Diaz His lines were shit. Kirk ripped his dick off.
Yep.
As Spaniard i find this pretty funny,the flag that Colon displays so proudly in fact is modern Spain flag,the old has lions and castles.that was the first european flag in America.
And yes...William Shatner speaks EXACTLY like that😂
I’m pretty sure the flag you described isn’t even the flag of Spain during Columbus’ time.
@@OfficialDoctorHawk is the flag of "Reign of Castilla y Aragon" (the seed of our modern Country) and was the very first European flag in American Soil,brave people that because in those times travel to América was like travel to Mars
