Sometimes, you just need to bust a rhyme. Crank up the volume, and then cast your vote for who wins in these epic rap battles of history!
1. Frederick Douglass vs. Thomas Jefferson
2. Eastern Philosophers vs. Western Philosophers
3. Romeo and Juliet vs. Bonnie and Clyde
4. George Washington vs. William Wallace
5. Artists vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Kick down — who are your winners?
Oh thank you thank you I’d never seen these before. Now hooked!
I love Nice Peter & I love you guys!!! World’s collide and it’s BEAUTIFUL!
I cannot believe you didn’t include Marilyn Monroe v Cleopatra! Or joan of arc v miley Cyrus. Smh Tyrstan…..
I gotta vote for Romeo & Juliet vs Bonnie & Clyde, but my personal favorites of them all are Teddy Roosevelt vs. Winston Churchill, Cleopatra vs Marilyn Monroe, and Ivan the Terrible vs Alexander the Great
Gotta go with Fred Douglas vs Thomas Jefferson and Artists vs Turtles.
alex the great vs ivan the terrible is the clear winner. surprise entry and decimation by catherine the great? amazing, inspired, 10/10
The first is among my top two favorites on the channel, Ghandi vs. MLK being the second. Eastern vs. Western Philosophers is on my long list of repeat views.
Gotta go with Fredrick Douglass vs. Thomas Jefferson, with Artists vs. Turtles a close second
My absolute favorite Epic Rap Battle is Alexander the Great vs Ivan the Terrible. Every time I’ve discussed it with history nerds (even those who haven’t seen it), Catherine the Great is the obvious win. I also adore the MLK vs. Ghandi.
Of these? Frederick Douglass vs. Thomas Jefferson.
I would have rioted if you hadn’t included Artists v Turtles – it has the most bangin’ tune!
But I loved the first rap lines from Wallace… “I’ll knock you the f*ck out, mate!” – ah, the way all Scots’ arguments start, lol.
