Do you create all the music for dan's videos? If so then well done, very well done. If not then well, i need to know who did. Good job on the watch dogs one though :)
It's been 10 years lads don't know bout you but since I was 5 or 6 years old I remember I had first came across this video didn't know what it was about however, I vividly remember having this on repeat when I was a kid this was a big part of my childhood much love Dan bull ❤
You know, most rappers are very similar in all of their raps. They have distinctive rhyme schemes and lyrics that make them who they are and easily recognizable in sound. But not Dan. Every rap he produces takes on a whole new beat and rhyme scheme and flow. He dominates every rap in a different way each time! It's really why I love his raps. He defies the laws of Music theory and it's beautiful!
I really did enjoy the rap, but if it was me writing the hook I would have gone for something more along the lines of: "Battlefield 4, Battlefield 4. Is it Battlefield 3? Pretty much identical but plus a little more" or something such as that. I'm not so good at writing raps. It's fine as it is, that's just my 2 pence.
Loop the chorus for hours while taking out the necessary superpowers. People bobbing their heads to this tune while taking showers. Give em every chance and at least try to be polite while giving them a light to write the next verse so others don't die of fright Exuding all their might
no disrespect Dan, and this rap is AMAZING, but I wish the main bit were a bit faster paced or something, although i do like the message it puts across. its just a bit of a buzzkill. don't get me wrong though, one of my favorite danbull raps :D
Dunno why everyone hates the chorus. Is it just because it pokes fun at the game? No offense, but if you're that easily offended by one guy's opinion on a video game then you probably shouldn't be on the internet to begin with...
It's not that good of a chorus, in my opinion, it comes to the point that he is making a repetitive slightly bellow average chorus as a satire, if the satire doesn't interest me, for whatever reason, the chorus is left as repetitive and slightly bellow average. To me the satire doesn't appeal to because i already know everything said there and believe i listened to people bring out a point about that very well before, and have no need to listen to it again.
Thats wrong I have cod bo3 and in the campaign one of the last missions u get to blow up a nuclear plant and quite a few of the missions u get to blow up giant radars and stuff
+Player 1 uses a engine BASED off of the 1999 quake engine, just like all the source games and several others. at the point cod and all these other games are at, only a bit of the engine is the original 1999 engine.
+lenny gowland Well yes, but that's scripted, meaning it HAS to happen, ny fellow MGS fan here is talking about in multiplayer, and sometimes in campaign, but campaign doesn't count since you can script any part of a story mode, I believe Killzone 2 did something like this where you have cutscenes in the multiplayer depending on who gets the point, but Battlefield 4 Has a frostbite 3 engine, meaning you can do practically anything in game.
I actually really liked this one. Made me want to buy the game. All the same, I'm probably in the minority but I miss songs like your original album Safe along with Face. That was good stuff.
I agree, I feel like everyone praises him when his raps are epic, and his interesting one that are fast or massively varied in words, then you ditch dan.
+SpitFire_McGee Actually, notice he says "I blast mags, even more than Jackfrags, I point at all the things with the same finger with which I snatch tags". Well, Jackfrags uploaded a video called "point at all the things", featuring Boyinaband. I actually only just got that reference now. :D
Dis... Is... EPIC! I mean, you refer to Battlefield (one of my fav. game series), the Big Bang theory (one of my fav. tv series), Greek mythology (which is one of my favourite parts of History and mythology) and Tits and Ass (need I say more...?) all in the one rap AND managed to have a pretty good beat too! This is by far one of your best IMO. Keep it up Danbull :D
Hey Dan Bull, I wanted to suggest a game for you to rap about, I know you decide what to rap about, but I thought it would be cool if you did a throw back to Nintendo 64 games Like "Conkers Bad Fur Day" Or "Golden Eye" stuff like that. Anyway sorry to bug you, keep on being awesome!!!
Dear Dan As a listener from around the skyrim rap id like to say how much i love your raps and the big bang line in this is genius my friend, i wish my brother could hear it, he was a big bang fan and im sure would of loved this and your star wars rap too. the reason i mention this is because my brother passed away in october 2011 and skyrim came out and really pulled me out of reality when i needed it, then your raps came along based off it and the bard rap is truely one of my favourite lyrical pieces of all time, but that game and you and a couple other things pulled me out of a dark time in my life so to all who say you need to go back to your old style or need to take your time dont know what there talking about because your truely a great talent and really good in what you do keep up the great work, if theres one thing id love to see you make a rap off its pokemon, id like to see what you come up with, it would be great i just know it.
Dan, I don't know if you're reading this but I just wanted to tell you that I think a good song begins with a good beat. Your songs are the best if you put a beat on the background that is fast. But it don't matter what I think, I like your videos anyway
"A knife in a gun fight, This is how its done, right? If i didn't give you a chance it'd be unpolite, There's panic in the streets, humberside. You are not safe here, HONEYPIE" Instant Like.
I actually thought this was pretty damn cool, and what are people going on about: "Ah, Dan, go back to your old style!" No; one does not go back, you go forward, this rap was ace, like the rest, however your fans are just nit picking, yeah the chorus was a little simple... However IT'S BATTLEFIELD 4!
KingOfCookies1 IMO his flow is much much better in this BF4 rap and is actually catchy/funny it also has a better beat. Everyone has an opinion though.
KingOfCookies1 All comes down to a matter of opinion... Also in comparison, I'm sure there's better, however I personally like this, it's got the 'umph' and determination to get you pumped up for BF4! :D
***** Now that is true, however like every other artist/composer in world, they all have their ups and downs, if an artist doesn't go through this stage, it means they're not putting the effort in! :D
Dan, take your time when making raps, I notice with other indie artists that when they do that, they'll put out a great piece of work. I feel like this one is rushed out too much. "Learn your lessons and take criticism, it'll enable you to make you bigger" Who of all the people here knows that amazing piece of work?
Your quote was from Staircase.. But If it was rushed out, he would have released it on the day of the battlefield release, but he didn't and he produced a long rap about battlefield, although, I do find the chorus a bit weak.
Instead of "Battlefield 4, the best battlefield since the battlefield before" it should be "Battlefield 4, Battlefield 4. The best battlefield in the Battlefield store!" Or In the PS3/PS4 store
A vision of the future 2020 (you know, the year) My vision's super duper 20/20 (that's perfect vision) Equipped with many shooters Plenty, plenty Big bang, Sheldon Cooper Penny, penny (THATS THE THING THAT SHELDON FROM BIG BANG SAYS EVERYTIME HE KNOCKS ON PENNY'S DOOR!!!) Those lyrics killed me so hard I was squealing like a little girl and I had to stop the video! So you do watch The Big Bang! You are a creative genius and there's no other way to word it.
My take on the chorus was that he was poking fun on how the developers keep making the same game over and over and aside from some upgrades it's nearly always the same. "Is this Battlefield 3? No it's Battlefield 4!" meaning if you just took a quick look at it you wouldn't notice much difference, but the hype machine would have you believe it's so much better than the last game. That's my thought on it all at least.
As always guys, remember that Dan's songwriting background was in satire. He's taking the mick- both of the game and the consumers. If anything, the fact that people think it's "too simple" proves how short-sighted some of us are.
Battlefield 3 rap = A genuine rap about the game. Battlefield 4 rap = A rap about how similar the game is the the previous. And how it is barely even different.
I feel that Dan picked to wrong game to lable as a clone. I mean - sure, it's basically Battlefield 3, but I can think of another ichthyological franchise that has been the same game for many, many, many sequels.
Arcralf titan fall is not a realistic fps. CoD could beat titan fall in the way the games battle tactics are. Unlike titan fall were you hop around all day shooting a giant robot.
its the hook (happy now?lol) that brings the overall quality of the whole song down. your battlefield rap original just felt more flowing. this one just tasted like filler... you are sooooo much better than that. overall its still a great song.
***** Cod ghosts didn't run on my PC. So I might be a bit lopsided in my opinions. Seeing as it's cod. And this battlefield is like the other one. But still FUCKING AMAZING.
Awesome rap Dan. Keep up the great work and don't be afraid to try new things. While I can agree that I think some of your older work might be better, I also think if you don't stay fresh and you stagnate then your creativity might suffer. Definitely parts of this song that I really liked.
[lyrics]: Verse 1: Oi, my name Is Daniel Recker Join my game And Dan'll wreck ya Do me a nice favour Get out of my face or I might take a Whole skyscraper And even more later Maybe three to four acres Plus every map From parcel storm Resort to dawnbreaker Sneak into my flood zone Your cover's soon blown I'll turn your dog tag Into a little tombstone Is this a revolutionary game Or just a new clone? Who knows? Judging by the sales figures You don't Man i could stand here And shoot for hours Til i've taken out Every one of the three global superpowers A vision of the future Twenty twenty My vision's super duper Twenty twenty I'm equipped with many shooters Plenty, plenty Big Bang, Sheldon Cooper Penny, Penny Chorus: Battlefield Four Battlefield Four The best Battlefield Since the Battlefield before Battlefield Four Battlefield Four Is it Battlefield Three? No it's Battlefield Four Battlefield Four Battlefield Four The best Battlefield Since the Battlefield before Battlefield Four Battlefield Four Is it Battlefield Three? No it's Battlefield Four Verse 2: You know Dan's mission Is to make a rogue transmission Set the dial on your radio and listen What happens when you open A platinum battlepack? You get a single track CD This battle rap You're the PC To my Apple Mac Fundamentally opposed So get out my habitat I'll blast mags Even more than jack frags Point at all the things With the same finger With which i snatch tags It doesn't matter What i see these fools toting I just double it up Dual scoping One for each of your prepubescent balls Grow some School's open And i leave every rule broken Chorus: Battlefield Four Battlefield Four The best Battlefield Since the Battlefield before Battlefield Four Battlefield Four Is it Battlefield Three?

Well i'd have thought It was me Cus i'm the type to counter knife y'all Wipe the blood off my brow And say "wow, how delightful" A knife in a gun fight This is how its done right? If i didn't give you a chance, it'd be unpolite There's panic in the streets, humberside You are not safe here honey pie Ask Bonnie Tyler What i did to her heart I more than eclipsed it I ripped it apart I'd rather play Battlefield Than with her tits and her arse Regarding military ditties I turned it to an art, listen Chorus: Battlefield Four Battlefield Four The best Battlefield Since the Battlefield before Battlefield Four Battlefield Four Is it Battlefield Three? No it's Battlefield Four Battlefield Four Battlefield Four The best Battlefield Since the Battlefield before Battlefield Four Battlefield Four Is it Battlefield Three? No it's Battlefield Four Ending: Hip hop ha, clippity clap This is the Battlefield rap, yeah Hip hop ha, clippity clap This is the Battlefield rap, yeah
That's exactly what I was about to post. The word netcode, bugs or crap doesn't appear any where even once in the lyrics. He clearly have never played the game.
Christer Pettersson Its not at all buggy anymore dude. Of course it would be buggy at first if they are releasing a new revolutionary engine and still figuring out the kinks really it was fixed after a month and a half stop complaing and go back to call of duty GOATs (i used to be a cod fan till mw2)
Andy Hobbs I'm going to type some harsh sh*t now so look away if you are easy offended. ANYONE that defends this type of new marketing and business strategy that has been used lately selling games that essentially doesn't work or even exist are retarded clueless buffoons with fanboy complex. It's not a mistake, it's not necessary and it's not about anything else then being greedy f*cking bastards that have absolutely no respect or goodwill for loyal intelligent fans and customers. It's the idiots that keep throwing money at these companies and defending them saying there is nothing wrong with the games that are the very reason this goes on and can continue going on. So STOP IT!. You are ruining games that otherwise would be perfectly good.
i loved bad company 2, but played battlefield 3, expecting it to be a sequal to BC2, and was completly bored and turned off from battlefield all together
To add to that, even if the game doesn't have a single bug anymore it still has the exact same dolan netcode that will NEVER be fixed. Not even a perfect netcode would solve all the problems as the main philosophy around the gameplay is that 2 idiots without skill are always better then 1 genius with skill. It might have sounded like a noble idea but it doesn't take a genious to figure out what type of typical gameplay will evolve from that. Pure retardation circle jerking. However if you know 15-20+ really good players really, really well that plays daily and you all can afford to rent a server together I bet it still can be pretty fun. But how many of the 4 million or so players are in that optimal situation?
I love how the lyrics are celebrating and mocking the game at the same time, sort of like how I feel about the Battlefield franchise. Yeah yeah, the chorus is pretty simple and repetitive, but it works, both in rhythm and as a satire. Besides, the verses freaking killed it. xD
“Do me a nice favor Get off my face off Or I take a whole Skyscraper.” Shows stab the guy a knife on his chest and blows a skyscraper,nice Dan you kill the start of the song awesome 🤩
lol battlefield 3 got released way before cod ghosts but it has way better graphics and over all gameplay then came battlefield 4 fucked up for the first month thx ea
near the beginning when he uses that really rough angry sounding voice for the line "man i could stand here and shoot for hours..and so on and so forth, thats the best part, rap like that more often sounds so much more hype
Hip hop hap! Clippity clap!
Do you create all the music for dan's videos? If so then well done, very well done. If not then well, i need to know who did. Good job on the watch dogs one though :)
This is the battlefield rap!

DOOOOOOOM. i love you
Can't beat a good Dan Bull song, This has to be one of my favourites along with the DLC song :D
*Raps about Battlefield 4, Planetside 2, COD Black Ops Three*
*Does not make a rap about Arma*
10/10
he couldnt get a rhyme for every keybind...
Wait he rapped about Planetside 2?
i have almost 20 years now... im getting old damn
samee
I love how he says "No ,it's Battlefield 4" like a grandad
It's been 10 years lads don't know bout you but since I was 5 or 6 years old I remember I had first came across this video didn't know what it was about however, I vividly remember having this on repeat when I was a kid this was a big part of my childhood much love Dan bull ❤
I was in grade 7!!!!! Nostalgic moments
You know, most rappers are very similar in all of their raps. They have distinctive rhyme schemes and lyrics that make them who they are and easily recognizable in sound. But not Dan. Every rap he produces takes on a whole new beat and rhyme scheme and flow. He dominates every rap in a different way each time! It's really why I love his raps. He defies the laws of Music theory and it's beautiful!
"Your the pc to my mac" -When you feel so bad for the opponent so you roast yourself to help them
Okay,so I'm here since there's 2020 already,wishing everyone a good year!
sorry i giggled when you said "battlefield 4 is the best battlefield, since battlefield before"
Good said!
Nope Mann well thats your opinean so keep it youer shelf hater
Paul Sweeney who's the hater here?
...
STINGER RGB What part of brain are is missing?
I really did enjoy the rap, but if it was me writing the hook I would have gone for something more along the lines of: "Battlefield 4, Battlefield 4. Is it Battlefield 3? Pretty much identical but plus a little more" or something such as that. I'm not so good at writing raps. It's fine as it is, that's just my 2 pence.
yeah it's not identical but im trying to not hate so i'll stop
ThatTomshow as has been said many times, its Identical to the casual player, but if you played alot of BF3, its entirely different.
CoD Players: the car blew up :D
Battlefield players: THE SKYSCRAPERS FALLING HOLY SHIT EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF!!!!!!11111!!!
Im sorry i just had to :P
Amen to that
CoD Players: FUCK A MOAB WE ARE ALL FUCKING DOOMED!
Battlefield players: HOW DID THE WHOLE ENEMY TEAM GET JETS?!?
Counter Strike players: "LEARN THE SPRAY PATTERN YOU IDIOT!"
Halo players: STUPID STICKY DETONATOR! N00B! SCREW YOU!
Planetside 2 players : WAIT ,WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED ?
Better than 2042
Yuh
I just realized, this song sounds so much more beautiful than it already is with ear/headphones, nice job Dan
Loop the chorus for hours while taking out the necessary superpowers.
People bobbing their heads to this tune while taking showers.
Give em every chance and at least try to be polite while giving them a light to write the next verse so others don't die of fright
Exuding all their might
no disrespect Dan, and this rap is AMAZING, but I wish the main bit were a bit faster paced or something, although i do like the message it puts across. its just a bit of a buzzkill. don't get me wrong though, one of my favorite danbull raps :D
Honestly hes done better, its not amazing, his other raps have been better.
Bashfulfruit i prefer this because i can actually hear what he is saying
Bashfulfruit welcome to a magical thing called an opinion. :D
I agree, his recent raps have been a bit slow and not as much energetic. Still beats everything else on RUclips but not his other raps.
When did rapping fast become the be all and end all of rap music....
Dunno why everyone hates the chorus. Is it just because it pokes fun at the game? No offense, but if you're that easily offended by one guy's opinion on a video game then you probably shouldn't be on the internet to begin with...
It's not that good of a chorus, in my opinion, it comes to the point that he is making a repetitive slightly bellow average chorus as a satire, if the satire doesn't interest me, for whatever reason, the chorus is left as repetitive and slightly bellow average. To me the satire doesn't appeal to because i already know everything said there and believe i listened to people bring out a point about that very well before, and have no need to listen to it again.
ImperialGuardsman74 repetitive and below average, fits the game well
ImperialGuardsman74 The point was that is repeats like the similarities of what he's saying.
Chorus: a part of a song that is repeated after each verse, typically by more than one singer. its supposed to be repetitive.
Chaoticlysm As i said satire, but that satire doesn't interest me.
Battelfield 4 Battelfield 4
The best Battelfield since the Battelfield before

Arcralf Shh. No one cares.
Most of Cod Epic Moment happened in a Cutscene, Almost all of Battlefield's epic moment Happen in-Game
Thats wrong I have cod bo3 and in the campaign one of the last missions u get to blow up a nuclear plant and quite a few of the missions u get to blow up giant radars and stuff
+lenny gowland But COD uses a 1999 Quake engine sooooo when you blow up a nuclear plant some green chunks fly everywhere, battlefield not so much.
+Player 1 uses a engine BASED off of the 1999 quake engine, just like all the source games and several others. at the point cod and all these other games are at, only a bit of the engine is the original 1999 engine.
Joe kromer They modify it yes. But it is sub par. when you blow up a bomb in S&D how nice does that look?
+lenny gowland Well yes, but that's scripted, meaning it HAS to happen, ny fellow MGS fan here is talking about in multiplayer, and sometimes in campaign, but campaign doesn't count since you can script any part of a story mode, I believe Killzone 2 did something like this where you have cutscenes in the multiplayer depending on who gets the point, but Battlefield 4 Has a frostbite 3 engine, meaning you can do practically anything in game.
Wait. Battlefield 4 takes place in August of 2020... shit
You know it’s an old video when the year 2020 is used as future tense
I actually really liked this one. Made me want to buy the game. All the same, I'm probably in the minority but I miss songs like your original album Safe along with Face. That was good stuff.
I agree, I feel like everyone praises him when his raps are epic, and his interesting one that are fast or massively varied in words, then you ditch dan.
BigBang reference was sneaky
Haha, a little reference to JackFrags, he's one hell of a good Battlefield player
Check Dan's recommened youtube channels. There's Jackfrags in it.
ConnorPlaying i think dan helped jack with the battlefield vs. CoD rap
+SpitFire_McGee Actually, notice he says "I blast mags, even more than Jackfrags, I point at all the things with the same finger with which I snatch tags". Well, Jackfrags uploaded a video called "point at all the things", featuring Boyinaband. I actually only just got that reference now. :D

Just sayin'
MrDouble Nugget It's taking the piss out of battlefield fans... That's all they say
Rhattles Yeah the chorus looks like it's saying that battlefield fans make a big deal because it's Battlefield *4*.
Pretty weird for a chorus though.
It's only a Battelfield rap, dont need to ut to much work into it, same with COD raps.

Nothing will ever beat Bad co. 2 though
you got that right :D
Yessss.... Bad Co. 2 will stand king of the hill for decades :DD
Have you ever heard of a game called Battlefield 2, it came out in 2005. Play that for a while then say BFBC2 is the best battlefield.
mandarinPine9onXbox
Well since you can't do multiplayer in BF2,BFBC2 is the best BF
TheNekolink You can do multiplayer in BF2
I actually like the chorus...
Instead of "Battlefield 4, the best battlefield since the battlefield before"
it should be "Battlefield 4, Battlefield 4. The best battlefield in the Battlefield store!"

No it's Battlefield 4!" meaning if you just took a quick look at it you wouldn't notice much difference, but the hype machine would have you believe it's so much better than the last game. That's my thought on it all at least.

As always guys, remember that Dan's songwriting background was in satire. He's taking the mick- both of the game and the consumers. If anything, the fact that people think it's "too simple" proves how short-sighted some of us are.
Best song ever based on the best game ever
Usually I don't care for video game graphics... but holy shit I can't stop dropping my jaw with these graphics xD
Doyin Iluyomade Battlefield 4 looks much much better than CoD I have both for ps4 where they look the best on consoles and Battlefield is much better
Gaming with iinfected "where they look the best on console" dude, you obviously havent seen pc
I have a PC i was referencing that the best Battlefield will look on a console is ps4
ah okay, but still pcmasterrace
I know for sure I just prefer some games on the console
Battlefield 3 rap = A genuine rap about the game.
Battlefield 4 rap = A rap about how similar the game is the the previous. And how it is barely even different.
***** i've never have trouble with it they've patched most of the problems now and its very well optimized you sure your playing the same game ?
***** you play on console?
Its a good game but it would be nice if there was sound lol
cause i'm on pc and i never hear any 1 talking about crashes on pc i have only cashed once in the 9 months i own it
im on pc too must be crap on consoles then
I love the fact that I grew up with this and not fucking tic tok or fortnite
I feel that Dan picked to wrong game to lable as a clone.
I mean - sure, it's basically Battlefield 3, but I can think of another ichthyological franchise that has been the same game for many, many, many sequels.
We dont speak of that game. The comments will explode.
AgentAnomaly thanks to google+ they wont
you mean ... Call of juarez?
dont speak the name of you-know-who
its call of duty isn't it
BattleField ripped COD a new asshole
methum kasthuriarachchi What?
methum kasthuriarachchi lol thats a cod player for you... immature and stupid...
And then Titanfall eat them both whole.
Arcralf titan fall is not a realistic fps. CoD could beat titan fall in the way the games battle tactics are. Unlike titan fall were you hop around all day shooting a giant robot.
Arcralf titan fall sucks
This brings me back so much memories
Little did you know its actually battlefield 1 which is a game set before battlefield 2 and 3 yet after battlefield 4.
+TomSir and bf1942 dont forget that
that jack frags reference
This is 5 years old it brings back so many good memories of this game
its the hook (happy now?lol) that brings the overall quality of the whole song down. your battlefield rap original just felt more flowing. this one just tasted like filler... you are sooooo much better than that. overall its still a great song.
i think the chorus is quite funny
you have to play the game and realise that it's battlefield 3 with new maps :D
It's called a hook in hip-hop. Get with the lingo, yo. :D
I agree totally the rapping is amazing but the chorus is just...meh. Still overall an amazing song. :D
think about it for a second buddy, repetetive boring chorus, theme of song? Use what you must have learned in english class.
It 2022 and i.m rewatched it because i remember it
God Dammit, never gets old. :) it has been a nice trip over these years.
Not sure if rap about good game, or diss rap...
Neutral rap, he saying it's a clone of the last battlefield, but he still thinks it's fun as hell
***** Cod ghosts didn't run on my PC. So I might be a bit lopsided in my opinions. Seeing as it's cod. And this battlefield is like the other one. But still FUCKING AMAZING.
Yeah CoD ghosts didn't run for me either, some BS about my graphics card
Is it battlefield 3 no it's battlefield 3.5
If it was a completely different game it would be a different game, not Battlefield.
*****
"improved" *COUGH* The netcode...
Is it Call of Duty 1.1? No . Its Call of Duty 1.11
Still, some of Battlefields expansion packs are larger then new COD titles. (Bad Company 2: Vietnam anyone???)
Oh god, that Flood and Soon forced rhyme *shiver*.
I opened a plat battle pack i got for being a long time Battlefield VET an i did get this rap in it !
Awesome rap Dan. Keep up the great work and don't be afraid to try new things. While I can agree that I think some of your older work might be better, I also think if you don't stay fresh and you stagnate then your creativity might suffer. Definitely parts of this song that I really liked.
[lyrics]:
Verse 1:
Oi, my name
Is Daniel Recker
Join my game
And Dan'll wreck ya
Do me a nice favour
Get out of my face or
I might take a
Whole skyscraper
And even more later
Maybe three to four acres
Plus every map
From parcel storm
Resort to dawnbreaker
Sneak into my flood zone
Your cover's soon blown
I'll turn your dog tag
Into a little tombstone
Is this a revolutionary game
Or just a new clone?
Who knows?
Judging by the sales figures
You don't
Man i could stand here
And shoot for hours
Til i've taken out
Every one of the three global superpowers
A vision of the future
Twenty twenty
My vision's super duper
Twenty twenty
I'm equipped with many shooters
Plenty, plenty
Big Bang, Sheldon Cooper
Penny, Penny
Chorus:
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
The best Battlefield
Since the Battlefield before
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
Is it Battlefield Three?
No it's Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
The best Battlefield
Since the Battlefield before
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
Is it Battlefield Three?
No it's Battlefield Four
Verse 2:
You know Dan's mission
Is to make a rogue transmission
Set the dial on your radio and listen
What happens when you open
A platinum battlepack?
You get a single track CD
This battle rap
You're the PC
To my Apple Mac
Fundamentally opposed
So get out my habitat
I'll blast mags
Even more than jack frags
Point at all the things
With the same finger
With which i snatch tags
It doesn't matter
What i see these fools toting
I just double it up
Dual scoping
One for each of your prepubescent balls
Grow some
School's open
And i leave every rule broken
Chorus:
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
The best Battlefield
Since the Battlefield before
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
Is it Battlefield Three?
No it's Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
The best Battlefield
Since the Battlefield before
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
Is it Battlefield Three?
No it's Battlefield Four
Verse 3:
I've got a bull's head
I think i'm a minotaur
I shot you fools dead
Extinct like a dinosaur
Look at your crying now
What you whining for?
You can either leave through the window
Or by the door
There's a pile of corpses
By your fortress
Who left that there?
Well i'd have thought
It was me
Cus i'm the type to counter knife y'all
Wipe the blood off my brow
And say "wow, how delightful"
A knife in a gun fight
This is how its done right?
If i didn't give you a chance, it'd be unpolite
There's panic in the streets, humberside
You are not safe here honey pie
Ask Bonnie Tyler
What i did to her heart
I more than eclipsed it
I ripped it apart
I'd rather play Battlefield
Than with her tits and her arse
Regarding military ditties
I turned it to an art, listen
Chorus:
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
The best Battlefield
Since the Battlefield before
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
Is it Battlefield Three?
No it's Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
The best Battlefield
Since the Battlefield before
Battlefield Four
Battlefield Four
Is it Battlefield Three?
No it's Battlefield Four
Ending:
Hip hop ha, clippity clap
This is the Battlefield rap, yeah
Hip hop ha, clippity clap
This is the Battlefield rap, yeah
i have a feeling dan hasn't played battlefield 4...
That's exactly what I was about to post. The word netcode, bugs or crap doesn't appear any where even once in the lyrics. He clearly have never played the game.
Christer Pettersson Its not at all buggy anymore dude. Of course it would be buggy at first if they are releasing a new revolutionary engine and still figuring out the kinks really it was fixed after a month and a half stop complaing and go back to call of duty GOATs (i used to be a cod fan till mw2)
Andy Hobbs
I'm going to type some harsh sh*t now so look away if you are easy offended. ANYONE that defends this type of new marketing and business strategy that has been used lately selling games that essentially doesn't work or even exist are retarded clueless buffoons with fanboy complex. It's not a mistake, it's not necessary and it's not about anything else then being greedy f*cking bastards that have absolutely no respect or goodwill for loyal intelligent fans and customers. It's the idiots that keep throwing money at these companies and defending them saying there is nothing wrong with the games that are the very reason this goes on and can continue going on. So STOP IT!. You are ruining games that otherwise would be perfectly good.
i loved bad company 2, but played battlefield 3, expecting it to be a sequal to BC2, and was completly bored and turned off from battlefield all together
To add to that, even if the game doesn't have a single bug anymore it still has the exact same dolan netcode that will NEVER be fixed. Not even a perfect netcode would solve all the problems as the main philosophy around the gameplay is that 2 idiots without skill are always better then 1 genius with skill. It might have sounded like a noble idea but it doesn't take a genious to figure out what type of typical gameplay will evolve from that. Pure retardation circle jerking. However if you know 15-20+ really good players really, really well that plays daily and you all can afford to rent a server together I bet it still can be pretty fun. But how many of the 4 million or so players are in that optimal situation?
I love how the lyrics are celebrating and mocking the game at the same time, sort of like how I feel about the Battlefield franchise. Yeah yeah, the chorus is pretty simple and repetitive, but it works, both in rhythm and as a satire. Besides, the verses freaking killed it. xD
You sir, are correct
0:12 RIP fellow Australian
Dan, could you release a bass-boosted version of this? :D
get yourself a sub woofer or something
I use to have Turtle Beach, but they break easy, would be nice to have a bass boosted for people that don't have something to do automatically.
Jack Johnson That would be nice, I remmemmber the amazingness of the beat on the BF3 rap.
Yeah, I cant hear anything in the next room... although I have a subwoofer!
ye this song is missing bass even with a subwoofer :)
I legitimately liked the chorus
“Do me a nice favor
Get off my face off
Or I take a whole Skyscraper.”
Shows stab the guy a knife on his chest and blows a skyscraper,nice Dan you kill the start of the song awesome 🤩
"No it's battle field 4" Heh that voice.
Better than the battlefield before? I'll say now that the net code doesn't reflect that claim... At all...
"Battlefield 4, Battlefield 4, The best Battlefield since the Battlefield before"
- Dan Bull
he said since bf3, meaning it is both the best and the worst. he is talking about all the bf's after bf3 meaning only bf4.
I love the lines and the whole rap
I cant unhear him say "battle feel" instead of "battlefield"
Drink a shot o' Whiskey every time he says "Battlefield"
My liver shut down
OH MY GOD WAS THAT A BIG BANG THEORY REFERENCE????
Uh, yes?
I'm Commander Shepard and the Big Bang Theory is pure cancer
Commander Shepard
Not as bad as the Mass Effect 3 ending.
Be very ashamed, Commander Shepard.
FUCKING BARRY ALLEN
Slippy Jumbo
FUCKING SLIPPY JUMBO
Wait, I'm a bit confused. Is this a rap about Battlefield 3?
the best Battlefield since the Battlefield before!
Rafa Aquino i got a bull's head like a Minotaur
no its battlefield 4
Seven years later and this is still such a fucking banger.
Sounds like your crew rap, honestly I think I prefer your non-gaming raps to your gaming ones nowadays.
Anyone listen to this in 2020 and hear the 2020 line just like "damn, its been that long..."
0:00 - 0:45 Best part.
lol battlefield 3 got released way before cod ghosts but it has way better graphics and over all gameplay then came battlefield 4 fucked up for the first month thx ea
1:22 JackFrags reference
...We all heard it, you don't need to repeat it.
near the beginning when he uses that really rough angry sounding voice for the line "man i could stand here and shoot for hours..and so on and so forth, thats the best part, rap like that more often sounds so much more hype
Awesome ++rep !
no your wrong insted +++++++__+++++++++ rep
LOL I like the big bang thing in it
-max maker
p.s AWESOME SONG
pp.s knock knock dan bull dan bull
