I was randomly playing around on the internet the other day and came across this awesome video. It’s a rap battle between Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking (with a cameo by Carl Sagan). It’s hilarious. It’s part of nicepeter‘s Epic Rap Battles of History videos. Others include Darth Vader vs Hitler and Justin Bieber vs Beethoven. I know it’s old by internet standards, but it’s still great.
I love some of these lyrics
Hawking: I’ll be dropping mad apples on your head from the shoulders of giants.
Einstein: I’m the giant whose shoulders you’d have stood on, if you could stand…
Here’s the video:
Ha ha, well done. My children especially love it. Now they know who Steven Hawking is, a wheelchair bound rap star. Hmmm, got some ‘splaining to do!
So would this particular rap qualify as ‘nerdcore’? Either way, it’s comedy gold.
