Henry Ford vs Karl Marx - Behind The Scenes. Epic Rap Battles of History. 

Babe not wake up

She's a Latina... I'm not doing that....🤔😅

Guys will see this and just think “Hell yeah”

IM UP.

@@BlackOpsGulfWar You remind me of the babe.

He’s trying an ACTUAL one. The Hitler one was highly exaggerated because it was meant to be insulting to Hitler himself. No one is going to take imitating a legit German accent for playing fucking Hitler when it’s a parody. For anyone else probably gonna really try unless that person was just as shitty as him.

That and the first Hitler battle was the first official erb. So ofc he isn’t going to be doing a legit accent it was just some silly little thing they were doing back then.

Well Hitlers public speeches sounds exagerated and cartoony even to Germans, its easy to make a parody of this recipe. In private, even Hitler did not talk like that. And German has so many dialects, you could make up any faux dialect and still legimatly claim its imitating German. Just watch "Das Boot" (in German) and you get through a very good collection of dialects.

Of course he shouldda done an Austrrrrian accent then

that wasn't even a german accent, he just made his voice shrilly and sharp and then pronounced the Ws like Vs and the 'the's like 'ze'.

Yeah… detailed research with this one. That’s a way to describe it.

can't wait for their future battles!

"imo"?

Too much bias.

​@@kevingomez2470 IN MY OPINION

Say what?? That's mad!

I wonder if that was a scrapped line anywhere XD

​@@Crimethoughtfull It's true He had tons and tons of ideas but he had no ability to stop and say this is good enough to release now and then I'll work on the next thing. His partners needed to do that consistently. And when his ego got too much he'd bow out and go start another company. Repeatedly.

​@@Adamdiditthat could've been a nice tied verse to the one in which Ford talks about Marx dead daughters

Henry Ford and Karl Marx rollin’ in a Model-T. Gangster as fuck! 😎

I just can’t stop watching that scene. It’s so over the top and goofy

Something felt off about the image quality of that scene compared to the rest of the video, but then it made sense having been filmed on a jury-rigged outdoor set

Well, it was.

@@doujinflipjerry*

That's so cool. I love that you incorporate these into your curriculum, your students must cherish your class. I'm in AP World History, and these battles help me a lot. Have a great weekend, and good luck with your teaching!

I do the same! 7th grade here

I coach scholastic bowl, and frankly, it's nearly aggravating how many questions I've read in practice or in matches that make me go "there's an ERB for this one".

They come out at the same time as the battles

Remember the reactions to Thanos vs. Oppenheimer? Everyone was like, "How is Oppenheimer supposed to be a threat?!" and then the battle came so then they were like, "How was Thanos supposed to have a chance?!". 😁

He’s been a full-time writer since season three. Grateful that Zach has stuck around to come up with insanely clever rhymes and disses.

When did you see Zac? I don't remember seeing him in the video

Oh nevermind he's at the beginning

Zach is RIDICULOUSLY good at writing verses

Yasssss!!!!! Still got it! Thanks very much.

@@ERB2you guys add so much personality to each character. Like Ford, Marx, Hitler, Stalin, Joker Roosevelt and Fawkes and Guevara, as well as both Washington and Wallace it’s actually insane

take a dive into the bts vids. they won't disappoint.

@@ERB2 hello lloyd!

judging by how there were no historians (correct me, if I'm wrong) involved it turned out surprisingly well

Then he said the itchy skin led him to communism..!

​@@Pacifist_MRMKronstadt in my heart 😢

​@mizanurrahamanmamun1095 I mean it certainly influenced the way in which he wrote about it. Surprised there weren't more curse words in his writing tbh

Marx: I fucking told you dude. I know

How's a bird supposed to rap against someone

He looks VERY similar to MatPat, wow.

Holy shit, I want this just for MatPat Turing

Indiana Jones might have known both of them

They’d HAVE to add a tf2 teference in a line

Yes y'all do. Well done.

It would be worth it for ERB

Hopefully it doesn't put you right back into a coma...cause it slaps so hard! Sorry. Thanks for watching. -eL

For the record, I never was in a coma but I was just imagining if someone woke up from a year long coma and seeing this sorry if anyone misunderstood the meaning of this comment. I've just missed erb and it's nice they're putting quality over quantity 👍

@@ERB2I thought you were Adolf Hitler commander of the third Reich

@@ERB2I thought you were Adolf Ghitler commander of ZA third Reich

He's def more of an Oppenheimer

I’m so glad someone else thought this 😂 I thought it was just me

i think that's fair lol

I was so happy when they actually read theory to do Marx

@@MCDreng that got me so hyped

Thats how every modern ideology works. in theory it sounds nice, but the way people put it in practice...

⁠​⁠​⁠@@Yea___ you’re being really fallacious and historically ignorant if you look at history in a vacuum. Saying that ‘communism’ is bad because people tried it and that’s it, is just denying factors or reasons to have played in a part. Communism has never been tried, the building of a socialist coalition has, it never was able to flourish due to the horrible conditions of the world. The USSR was built on the October revolution in a backwater severely underdeveloped country. Tsarist russia was very poor and very uneducated on mass. After the revolution, the communist party had to on mass try its best to educate the majority of the population and start local and state funded farms. Which worked well for the most part aside from the famine, due to crop failure and miscommunication. Stalin didn’t help too much with his relief efforts being stifled with his efforts to contain the information. (This is very very gross simplification of the eastern USSR famine) The USSR had very little allies, a bloody revolution. A famine, and world war 2, which they took on 3/4ths of the Nazi army on the eastern front. Then sanctions from 30+ countries and the western world funding death squads and color revolutions aka the white army. Then the US making nuclear weapons forcing the USSR to arm itself, the USSR tried to deescalate the arms race. This costed them so many resources. But despite this, the USSR was able to nearly triple the literacy rate, raise the standard of living by 32 years. Stopped the homelessness until the dissolution of the USSR(which was illegal) 1991. Many scientific and technological advances, and art aswell

​@@TearsOfThemthe classic "it didn't happen but it's a good thing that it happened"

Trotsky vs Makhno. Comment section would be filled with book length comments- including MLA format citations, of course- from various leftist tendencies

Tom Cruise versus… Ted Cruz?

The dry erase board during the scene where they were talking about the class they taught showed Tom Cruise vs Evil Knievel.

@@TheMurricane66 oh my god that makes so much sense, at the end of the rap battle there was two tom cruise movies, risky business and mission impossible and the third one was a like stunt jump

We all do

If they do that I think it's a necessity to also add Deng Xiaoping to the mix, like they did with Gorbachov in the Russian one

@@mixis1931 yeah, I do not say which leaders specifically, just Chinese ones at all

puyi is the only one I wouldn't include from this list because realistically he didn't actually do anything. his life story is interesting yes but he spent most of it either in exile, as a regular citizen, or as a puppet politician under the japanese. he's notable for his status as the last emperor of china, but not for anything he actually did or believed in as that emperor

@@nyctomint and that what makes him interesting

Then, it would be cool to find Chinese rappers dressed up as historical figures.

Thank you for the support. Very kind of you. Glad you enjoyed it.

So rad of you. Thank you!

They've come a long way from the Hulk vs Kim Jung Un insanity 😂

To be fair, Ford irl was very Homelander-ish

thanks for watching.

Marxism requires a certain level of interest, too little and you just believe the common consensus that he was a nutcase. Too much interest and you actually read his work to discover he was a nutcase with a savior complex.

"As a Marxist". Marxism, in Cambodia, killed 25% of the population; in URSS, did the Holodomor, a Holocaust that killed, indeed, more than the Nazi Holocaust; In China, killed almost 50 million. Congratulations, you support an ideology that killed more than nazism. Every teacher who says bad stuff about Marx, is correct.

Who let you in to feel important? This was a peaceful conversation until you came here@@nielswerner5276

When he went from nervous about it to “this is a normal way of thinking”. I thought to myself. Hey, he did the thing. Ahhh to be a baby leftist once again

@@alexmillinger5524 Exactly. Shame that communism is treated as an usual ideology, instead of a killing one, like Nazism.

Yes!! Henry Ford's whole first verse reminds me of Speilberg

Oh, I would like to see that too!

I've been trying to think of who Tom Cruise would go up against. Im not super active in the community here, i just watch the videos, so maybe everyone else already knows. My best guess is Buster Keaton.

@@MrKyltpzyxm i figured Evel Knievel because on the board, they're written together OR Jackie Chan like in one of the polls they did a few years ago

Dialectical materialism, babeyyy

Wonder how many people will actually finally read Marx now instead of just repeating the state line lol. Is making ERB with Marx praxis?

"so what made you interested in learning more about the ideological side of politics?" "henry ford vs karl marx epic rap battles of history"
