Every Epic Rap Battles Of History Ranked

6. Steve Jobs Vs. Bill Gates

Battle: Steve Jobs (Peter) leaves halfway through, referencing his real-life death, before HAL 9000 (Peter) raps against Bill Gates (Lloyd) as a third-party rapper.

An all-timer battle in every sense, this one really is ERB at their very best.

It's got one of the best beats and some of the best visuals the series has ever delivered, some of the show's best writing and most importantly of all, it's maybe the most inventive and unique of all the ERB instalments.

Rather than follow a simple series of alternating verses the characters go back and forth a lot more and this makes the whole episode wonderfully unpredictable and shows the team at their most creative. As well as this, HAL 9000's appearance at the end was beautifully judged.

This is a contender for the most popular ERB to date and while it's arguably not quite the best, it's certainly a masterwork and one of ERB's greatest triumphs.

Best Line:

Steve Jobs: "I need to bring up some basic s**t / Why did you name your company after your d**k?!"
