    Default It was inevitable...



    I'd say Superman totally won it, but that might be my bias towards Superman and against RayWilliamJohnson...

    So out of all the things they could have rap about, they just payed attention to that...

    I like these videos way more than they really merit, so this was an absolute treat.

    Holy crap, this came out on Miracle Monday.

    You'd expect a much more lopsided fight in Goku's favor for this sort of thing, given that Superman grew up on a Kansas farm with loving parents, and Goku A. Is a dude who's so metal his power is that screaming makes him stronger B. Grew up in the woods killing with his bare hands to survive, and C. Hit Frankenstein's monster so hard it became his friend before he turned 13. That sort of hardcoreness would tend to be a better crucible for mastering the ruthless spitting of belittling rhymes (he's devoted to mastering all combat, after all), but I guess Clark got some coaching from Bruce.

    Damn, that was probably the best ERB in a while. My vote goes to Superman though.

    This was the only other rap battle that I've liked so far from season 3 (the first one was Blackbeard vs. Al Capone). I was kinda hoping for Superman vs. Alexander The Great, though...

    Or even better, Superman vs. Hercules...

    And Superman made a Hiroshima joke. The low blows are common with these.

    I really want to give it to Supes but Goku's insults were punchier.

    Superman's jab at Hiroshima and Nagasaki made me cringe worse.

    Sadly I think Goku won. There are more negative arguments against Superman that people are familiar with. The same old things people always say when complaining about the character. Boring stories because he's too powerful, his worst enemy is a rock, he was beaten by Batman, etc.
    I don't agree with any of these of course but they're things that people have been saying for years and they will generate more of a response. Which is what you try to do in a rap battle.

    Can't even have an rap battle without Batman being mentioned and he still lost.

    Beat was on point though.

    Right. It's not like these people weren't knowledgeable, they clearly knew the history of both characters. But in an Epic Rap Battle, you don't consider what's a fair or even-handed attack, you fight to win.
