Now this is my kind of Christmas music!
For those unfamiliar with the YouTube series Epic Rap Battles Of History, a brief introduction: two YouTube creators (Epic Lloyd and Nice Pete, both comedians) came together for a series wherein they basically re-enact the final scene in 8 Mile with two famous figures from history, dead or alive. The throwdowns are often vicious, sometimes lewd and dark, but hilarious: past battles include Mr. T vs Mr. Rogers, Beethoven vs Justin Bieber, Shakespeare vs Dr. Seuss, and Stephen Hawking vs Albert Einstein.
For their latest installment, good ol’ Saint Nick throws down against Moses… and Snoop Dogg- er, Lion is there to call Santa out for having children sit on his lap, among other zingers. I can’t even begin to explain how brilliant this is; it’s truly one of their best episodes to date. Watch and enjoy, then wander through past battles linked above.
