Epic Rap Battles Of History - Stephen King vs Edgar Allan Poe Lyrics
[Intro:]
Epic rap battles of history!
Stephen King!
Vs!
Edgar Allan Poe!
[Edgar Allan Poe:]
Once upon a midnight dreary, as I spit this weak and weary
I will choke this joker with a trochee till his cheeks are teary (ahh!)
But y'all don't hear me, all should fear me
I'll forever be better, you'll never be near me
Your books are as eerie as Beverly Cleary!
You're a faux Bram Stoker, so scram, the show's over
Your flow's so-so, Poe's poems pwn posers (snap!)
I wrote 'em locked in a cave, while I sobbed in a rage
While this jerk just beats off on a page
[Stephen King:]
You wanna talk shop, you gothed-out fop?
Go back to Hot Topic and shop for a top
There's a melancholy alcoholic laughing stock
In the King's house, now watch the Castle Rock
Pouty little poet with an opiate affliction
I'm a workaholic with a fiction addiction
I'm making dedicated readers shivery and jittery
Feel that Rage and Misery
You better start running, man
You're in deep poo, Poe
I'm a mad dog, fangs Shining, Cujo
Tommyknock you down till you can't stand up
You're as soft as Po, the Kung Fu Panda
Racks on racks cause I pen fat stacks of frightening writing
Have you seen the pile?
I can even take a break from my routine style
Crank out a Shawshank or a Green Mile
Masque of the Red Death? Barely blood-curdling
Pit and the Pendulum? Not even unnerving
Perving on your first cousin when she's thirteen years old?
Now that's disturbing
[Edgar Allan Poe:]
Stephen you pretend to do it, I've been really living through it
Like misery and poverty and family woes
I see through you like pantyhose,
Doing Chappelle and Simpson cameos (ahh!)
Even if you're gripping on a weapon, then you better get to stepping if you're messing with the horror lord
In a minute maybe, I'mma hit him
Cut him into itty bitty bits and I'ma stick 'em in the floorboards
[Stephen King:]
Uh, speaking of bored, you're the worst
Dropped out of school but you can't drop a verse
I could have spent that time better
In eight bars I can write a whole best-seller
I'm so prolific, this sickly goblin won't be bothering me
I'm on a clobbering spree
And I'll be smacking you with any of the big thick books
Inmy big dick bibliography
See, I'm the author with the blood and gore lore galore that'll horrify a reader to the core
Fame? Money? Talent? Success?
You'll always have less (Never more!)
Who won?
Who's next?
You decide!
Epic! Ahh! Rap battles of history!

Epic Rap Battles Of History Stephen King vs Edgar Allan Poe Comments
*I am now getting the thought that children having sex is a kink of Stephen's or something*
TBH Poe was superior in every freaking way. He was not just a horror writer of superior ability to King, and of course also a horror poet, but he was also the first real science fiction author, and his work in that genre was literally 100 years ahead of its time, it was almost hard to believe it wasn't written in the 20th century at times. He was the Isaac Asimov of the 19th century. But King isn't even the best among his contemporaries, he loses hands down to Clive Barker.
Stephen King sounds like Adam Sandler in Little Nicky.
Did anyone know Beverly Cleary is still alive? She's 103 and one of my favorite children's book writers as a young girl. She recently won an award and spoke at a literary confrerence. She wrote the Ramona Quinby series.
Poe's poems pwn posers. Dead lol
Stephen King
nevermore at the end took it all away. lol
*Petition to see more of Stephen King’s Kung Fu moves*
Edgar allem poe?!!! 🤘🤘👍👍
Severly underrated episode
Why does Stephen King look and sound like Little Nicky played by Adam Sandlers cousin?
When you finish high school English and finally get the references
About that opiate affliction line, Steven you have absolutely no room to talk, you were on every drug known to mankind when you wrote IT
True winner: Poe's yelling cut aways
We need another battle with Watsky in it. I seriously can't get enough of his flow and how he switches it up.
God damn Edgar raps as fast as William Shakespeare
Bill cosby vs r kelly with fat albert coming in
Poe won In my opinion
'POE'S POEMS PWN POSERS'
Me: [loses my shit]
Seriously, that line was fucking tight!
These two probably have the best chemistry and flow out of almost every of rap battle.
Making dedicated readers shivery and jittery/Feel that Rage and Misery?/ You'd better start Running Man/ You're in deep poo, Poe/ I'm a mad dog, fangs Shining, Cujo/ TommyKnock you down, til you can't Stand up/ You're as soft as Po, the Kung Fu Panda/Racks on Rack 'cause I pen fat stacks, have you seen the pile/ Take a break from my routine style/ Crank out a Shawshank or a Green Mile... absolute fire, and how many of his own book titles and references did he stick in there?
"Stephen you pretend to do what I'm really living through"
Well that explains why king only wrote a sex scene with 13 year olds while poe was in one.
Mmmm this one’s a tie... I want to give it to Poe, especially when he switched up styles for the second verse, just like irl, but King had some great flow
Zack as Stephen King was my weirdest crush ever
I still can't explain this
Its like cocaine you know what I said
Stephen King killed that!
Kings flow crazy
Mr. King Joker called he says that you need a lot less 13
Me at the start: Who is this person playing Poe? It's definitely not EL or NP
Me once Poe picks up speed: Who else but Watsky
Adding in the Raven at the end...nice ;)
That “dropped out of school but can’t drop a verse” line was pure fire!
5 years later stephen king still gets roasted
This is my favorite erb. Hands down
For some reason Kings last two words sent chills down my spine. Never more.
"the Tell-Tale heart beats soft in its grave"
Did ERB predict the future?
Funny as heck and so good brother keep up the good work
When the silent kid argued to the smart kid's answer
Still one of the hardest battles they've done
ima say Stephen won for sure
Jfc this is so next level
Idk who won. But remember that the first and last verses came from EAP’s most famous book “The Raven.”
Mad props to Zach Sherwin and George Watsky!
AYE BRO 😤😤😂💀MAKE LIL PEEP VS. XXXTENTACION
Prince Of Cazzo (Tybalt) vs Sasaki Kojiro
RL Stine vs HP Lovecraft. Make it happen.
Anyone else on a marathon???
Stephen King sounds like Bill Bye
The fact that Stephen king himself said on twitter he's lost the battle amazes me lmao
@z https://twitter.com/StephenKing/status/473571946316443648?s=19
It’s kinda funny all the people trying to equate a man writing a distasteful scene in a book with another man marrying his 13 year old cousin when he was 27 years old. Words and actions are different things.
I guess they make everyone who has a talent for poetry rap fast. Ever read The Raven? We've all seen the Simpsons' episode but haver you ever read it? It's really good. The man can rhyme. Shakespeare rapped fast too.
New writers want:
- Fan-fiction of their books. I don't want that.
- Fan art of their characters. I don't mind, but I would prefer not to get that so much. Anyway I'm partially blind.
- *The Movie* again, I'm partially blind. I don't watch movies, 'cause I don't mind. Too visual.
So wtf do I want if and when I get published?
My rap battle. Lol
Against who? I ain't got a clue.
I'm blind & I write sci-fi... Lol 😂 I'm just having fun here. I love this stuff.
Need to do naruto vs gohan
Am I the only one who loves King’s “See i’m the author with the blood and gore lore galore that’ll horrify a reader to the core” line? That flow was sick.
Completely agree, bother of these artists are very talented. I love Zach Sherwin (aka Stephen King). If you're into rap/hip-hop you should check him out, his raps go from clever to hilarious to deep and humbling.
Lovecraft vs lr stine
Joker wanted to tell you to have a lot more PG Mr.King
"go back to Hot Topic and shop for a top"
OUCH
Edger won don’t @ me
It’s like cocaine you know what I said
Cause I’m a Shining man
Not everybody gonna understand the “nevermore” at the end.
I'm ur first sub😎😎
jacy Moore i’m not
they both went hard tbh
To get things straight.
For starters, Poe had a lot less time on this earth, King is still alive and maybe doing well. Both are great writers.
But to me, Poe is way better.
I love this battle it’s one of my top three. In the other videos when that actor does his fast rap it throws off the rest of the songs where there is a pause because the other rapper is surprised or something throws it off but this one flowed so well and worked.
Poe's voice reminds me of Eminem a bit. Just for that he won.
Both times that Watsky was feature in ERBOH he played the OG poets so he both times get to call his opponents posers. Funny coincidence?
(finish the lyrics)
In my first appearance, the Bat was supposed to slay me !
Umm THE CREATOR OF IT
Stephen King took this one.
Oh so that’s why we have english class
People can say what they want but King Tommy knocked Poe into the floorboards while cranking out a Shawshank and Green Mile.
Edgar Allen poe=gorgie
Stephen king=pennywise
Who thinks poe is watsky
We were doing presentations about Poe in my AP Lit class and one kid really played this video during his presentation 😂
I propose Joker vs Stephen King !
I vote for Stephen Kings.
ERB should've added a reference to edgar's cat who he loved very much, catterina
"Droped out of school but can't drop a verse". Well that went hard.
i immediately clicked on this when i saw that Stephen King was in it.
I love this one
Poe had the flow, but King made it sting.
Stephen King kill it with that ending....savage
Hermione granger vs that DC wizard girl
Im sorry did edgar just say hes the horror lord? Nah that title belongs to H.P lovecraft
Are we just going to forget that King straight finished with the Raven quote 'Nevermore'
dammm im going with Stephen king
Stephen
EDGAR ALLAN POE
"See I'm the author with blood and gore lore galore that'll horrify a reader to the core"
The flow in this verse, I just can't even
"Poe's poems pwn posers."
Dayyuuummm
Em v.s Dre
Anyone looking for a more disturbing author than king read Tropaes: memoir of a warlock by Brad Rieman
Mr. King Joker wanted to tell u that he is a shining man, wink
I like them both so I can’t decide
Poe's poems pwn posers
boom
Lol Joker roasted him so bad
EDGER ALLEN POE WON
Help I can't stop rewinding for Kings bitchy "Shop for a top" 🤣🤣
Poe was out here beatin some ass
Could we get R.L. Stine vs H.P. Lovecraft
