Epic Rap Battles of Pony: Twilight Vs. Trixie

Parodying the success of the Epic Rap Battles of History series, Giganerd17 has released his first Epic Rap Battle of Pony, featuring the Great and Powerful Trixie vs Twilight Sparkle.  You might want to watch a few of the actual rap battles for some context (To explain why he used a high squeaky voice at least!) but overall it was really well done.  The lyrics are hilarious.

Check it out after the break! (Someone needs to PMV it)

Zoronii said...

Not a fan of the squeaky voice...

paradoxador said...

ehh... the lyrics where well written but i don't know, i just didn't like it

EricKilla said...

Dear god. What is this?

Ferrous_Oxide said...

The squeaky voice hurt my ears.

flashgen75 said...

Voice wasn't the best, but by Celestia those lyrics: amazing.

Agnes Fezellis said...

Not digging the shrillness of the voices... Sounds more like a cracked out 16 year old boy.

wackyteen said...

I like it, but... needs a better singer.

James Corck said...

If only I liked rap ;_;

This is one of the music styles where I get lost. The songs are too fast for me to keep up X3 But it's outstanding the amount of work that goes on the rhyming.

Wierdplatformer said...

I have no words...



No really, I've got nothing!

John Savant said...

This was inevitable. I was actually thinking of making one , but someone beat me to it.

Lightning Delight said...

That was... um... something. Yes. Something.

Not really a fan of the voice, and the lyrics felt like they lacked flow. They were just a bit disointed and forced at times.

rockerman100 said...

that was actually funny

Rhed said...

what the... I don't even

spidersean said...

I didn't even like the original Epic Rap Battles of History.
This is just bad.

Silfir said...

I thought it was bloody hilarious. What's with all the meh?

milleniummaster18 said...

Kudos for the lyrics, that's it.

I don't care about whatever context this has, there is no excuse for someone to make a voice that bad in a rap song.

Drwhoof said...

Get a couple of girls who sound like the ponies to rap it and this might be win....

Gypsy said...

now all we need is Lupe Fiasco & Kid Cudi to rap these lyrics

Lupe is Twilight & Trixie is Cudi :3

Please gets some girls to sing this. Pleaheaheaazzz

Fawfulcopter said...

Giga, thou musteth do Applejack and Rainbow Dash.

dastrdlyW said...

At first I thought that this was done by the guys who actually do Epic Rap Battles of History. xD Still. That made me laugh.

DoubleMallow said...

mfw none of trixie's lyrics are close to accurate about what happened in the show.

It's like taking a 40-year old school bus and calling it a brand new limo.

Display Name said...

@DoubleMallow

What happened in the show is that Trixie lost and ran off like a cowardly coward who cowers.

Do you think somepony with her kind of complex is going to admit to that?

Yami Archangel said...

I wrote this, and it should say when I posted it to deviantART.

Fillies and gentle-colts, please compare and reply.

Bobbyzero said...

So they are rapping about who is the biggest whore? Oh and the "rapper" sounds like shit. Did this really deserve its own post Seth?

Trainguyxx said...

I have to be honest, that was a bit painful, not only in te lyrics, but the voices =(

Time Shift said...

pros:
well made
nice rymes
nice disses
entertaining

cons:
same guy for both voices
lyrics too fast for voices
sped up to fast to mach the beat
would be better to have the actual voice actors do it.

Jebediah Oldenheimer said...

I liked it. Twilight's rhymes weren't nearly as good as Trixie's, though.

Torchman said...

Well...I liked the lyrics.

Now let's see who can sync it to the shoe.

FRiNKEL said...

I demand that the next rap battle be Celestia VS Pinkie Pie.

Snarling Mushroom said...

they all sound like Epic Rap battle's interpretation of Justin Bieber...

Octavia said...

That wasn't too shabby. The voice... is eh. And he seems like he needs to work on his rapping a bit. And a new mic. But the words were alright.

Next round: Me Vs Vinyl. ;)

PCzuelo said...

This had to be done.

SgtGarand said...

Eh, it was ok. But at least with the actual epic rap battles they try to keep them in character. With these lyrics it was just not in character, and since he used the same voice for both, it just sounded like someone arguing with them self. Thank Celestia for the colored text or I wouldn't have known which character was talking. Plus the voice... i'll just leave it at that

mycutiemarkisagun said...

"I DON'T LIKE RAP, BUT...."

Yeah yeah, shut the fuck up.

As a hip-hop connoisseur (the only one on EQD far as I can tell) who's watched dozens and dozens of battles, I can confirm that this "battle" is WICK WICK WACK.

Fuck, I can write better battle rhymes than this dude. *starts looking for female voice talent*

Dr. Robotnik said...

Here's that video





And right about here is the point and charm of the ERBoH.

The point is to take two barely related characters and make them battle it out. If you take two characters from the same series, especially those that've already interacted, and make them do a rap battle, it's pointless and boring.

Ran said...

It perked me up and made me smile despite it being the middle of the night.

The amount of people taking this so astoundingly seriously did crack me up, though. But, ah well.

Lucid said...

For the New Lunar Republic!

Get serious, chump.

Flutterforever said...

Hmm, I actually wrote one of these for Derpy Hooves vs Photo Finish, but I never new what to do with it since I lack sound and video equiptment. Interesting somepony else got the same idea.

Moonlight said...

I... I don't know how to feel about this...

Mr.Anonymous said...

The arguments in those lyrics were pretty shitty...he should of inspired himself from Yu Gi Oh's abridged rap battle

Davy said...

Rap battle? This sounds like something GigaNerd would-
...
Oh.

Congrats to ya for getting on EquestriaDaily, from Dinosaurshotgun.

Blue Cord Dragoon said...

Did Twilight Sparkle serve Trixie, or did Trixie serve Twilight Sparkle

Blue Cord Dragoon said...

@Lucid
*Salute* To the creation of the new Lunar Nation!

Forte Canter said...

@Agnes Fezellis That's probably because it is.

mycutiemarkisagun said...

@Tigerheart

I got Magic, Power, Bitches, and Fame/
You're alone, depressed, your only friends are on AIM/

Cátsy said...

pfft! I woke up the family with a failed stifled laugh XD that erectile dysfunction made me think of the "premature casting" scene in Ballad of Twilight Sparkle XD it came out of no where damnit I was not prepared!

Christy "Dame Helen" McFarland said...

Now we just need Tara Strong and Kathleen Baar to do the rap...and someone with more skill to do the backing track.

...and for the love of Celestia, SLOW DOWN! You're going to fast and throwing off the damn meter!

Solar Flair said...

Turn that squeak down a notch, damn.

Other than that pretty nice.
