Epic Rap Battles of History

When you're in college, you look for cheap forms of entertainment. Since I receive free internet through the university, I find myself on Youtube, Netflix, and other random sites quite often. There's a particular youtube channel I enjoy called Epic Rap Battles of History (ERB) where they take 2 famous figures from history or fiction and pit them against each other in a rap battle. They started making these rap battles on Nicepeter's youtube account, so the entire 1st season of ERB is on his account. They then created a separate channel specifically for epic rap battles which has the current 2 battles of season 2 on it.

Here's the most recent ERBoH, Master Chief vs. King Leonidas (Spartan vs. Spartan):


Who did you think won this Epic Rap Battle of History? Personally, I think Master Chief won. Though I thoroughly enjoyed both of them, I just think MC had better lines and rhymes.

  1. I used to like these guys. But they got stupid eventually. Maybe its me but yeah, I been watching them since they first came out and compared to now, they release stuff soooooooo sloooooooooow and their lyrics are not as good and they seem to forget the HISTORY part and just use popular current people vs some fictional character. Idk..meh

    1. The characters are chosen by the viewers (sort of), and they know they'll get more viewers if they choose the popular, current people, so it's understandable really.
