Also, the next rap battle was leaked.
Spoiler : IF YOU WANT A SURPRISE PLEASE DON'T CLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK! This is the next ERB :
Moses vs. Santa Claus. And there's a theory that Moses is being played by Snoop Dog.
And now we wait for the holidays to be over.

Yup, the theory's right. Snoop Dogg's in the next song. That's freakin' awesome. :D

Also, here's a link to the song if you want to hear it.

Santa Claus vs Moses.

Not bad. Of course, it was a little distracting with Snoop "Lion" being Moses. And the special effects were very lazy in comparison to stuff like Lee vs Eastwood (actually it was lazier than even Lennon vs O'Reilly tbh). But the song itself was pretty good, albeit a bit slower than most. Each of the rappers here did very well, with their lyrics and insults being very strong with a few exceptions (commandizzle?). I think Moses just barely won it for me, because he had more memorable lines and some amazing rhymes in his sections (except, of course, for commandizzle). So overall, good rap, though I really wish the effects were done better.

Moses won it, he had some funny lines, started out strong too (though I can say the same for Santa Claus):

"When I was high upon a mountain God revealed the truths of the Earth, but he never mentioned a fata** Papa Smurf"

"I'll split your a** in half, like I did the Red Sea"

"[...]Stop with the unpaid labor and let my little people go"

"I got a new comandizzle for yall, thou shalt not let children sit on a grown man's lap on the mall"


I haven't heard Snoop in a rap battle before, he adapted his style pretty well considering this is probably something he's never had to do in his career as a rapper before.

Plus the marijuana reference made me chuckle

@Got, what do you mean commandizzle is an exception? It's a reference to Snoop's style of dialoguing either in songs or in real life that he popularized.

I absolutely loved this new Santa vs Moses, but I felt the special effects was lazy haha. Moses definitely won it for me.

A solid battle, with both sides doing really well. Moses won.

Snoop Lion joined Maker Studios, the place the ERB crew work, a couple of months ago. I was wondering when/if he'd be in a battle.

I thought the battles would be cool again once it was back to being between Peter and Lloyd. I was wrong.

Either you guys aren't in the loop with what happened to Lance Armstrong (or not even know anything about him in general), aren't in the loop about baseball, or you just don't understand the lyrics, because that was pretty amazing compared to the Edison vs. tesla one (Lloyd actually had a pretty good accent for once in this new battle.)


Also, niiiice they got Key & Peele for the Ghandi vs. King, that was hilarious too.

I like Edison vs. Tesla and Martin Luther King vs. Gandhi, but Armsrong vs. Ruth is finally a classic one. I mean the beats of the other two were pretty good, but not so epic. But I love the text of Luther King vs. Gandhi most. :mrgreen:
What will be the next one? So excited. ^_^

Skrillex killed the latest ERB. Even the beat was dominating towards the style that could be seen in Skrillex's work. His flow with the music production terminology seemed much more nicer than Mozarts.

I was pretty impressed they managed to have a good dubstep song without relying so much on the wub-wub technique.

And NicePeter was sadly awful in this one...I thought him being Lance was bad, but his accent was way too obvious.
