    I must say, watching you geek out to the references that King and Poe made was delightful.

    Kings got no room to talk about addiction. In the 70's and 80s he loved his coke and I don't mean to drink.
    But otherwise he was pretty brutal lol

      If you notice he says “theres a melancholy alcoholic laughingstock, in the KINGS house”. he makes a joke about his own addiction

      He also wrote about an underrage gang bang scene so he has no right to talk about poe marrying his cousin to financially support her.

      Also, in early 2000's, he was hit by a car and subsequently became addicted to painkillers which fueled him writing Dreamcatcher

    It stands to mention that a lot of what we know about Poe comes from an autobiography written by someone who absolutely despised him. It would be like reading a book about you written by your worst enemy. The cousin thing, though… 😬

    6:19 - Nothing is known for sure, but many people think that Poe only married his young cousin so she could qualify for his medical benefits because she was seriously ill and her mother couldn't afford the care she needed. They believe the marriage was never actually consummated.

    8:02 Nah this one just goes harder than I remembered. If you're gonna do a speed rap you've gotta make sure you've got some good rhymes and alliteration and stuff in there, and this one knocked that out of the park. They also had quite the collection of digs on both ends, so it felt fair too. This one just slaps.

  • @seanlafferty3085
    @seanlafferty3085 3 года назад +3

    I feel like they missed a few opportunities with this one as I'd have liked to have seen actual references to Poe's stories (Murders of the Rue Morgue, Cask of Amontillado, The Black Cat), maybe a William Wilson reference as King is a horror symmetrical Poe. Also, Poe had a lot of work from his routine style (The Gold Bug, Balloon Hoax, MS. in a Bottle). The issue is they did the fast rap in the second verse and the content was weak in the lyrics. My complaint is that King clearly won whereas if approached differently Poe would have stronger insults and references over a speed run in trochaic octameter. Could've brought other horror legends in such as Mary Shelley, Bram Stoker & H.P. Lovecraft. The battle was great, just felt like many missed opportunities.

    Actually that's seven references King makes to his own books-Rage which he wrote as Richard Bachman, Misery, Running Man is another Richard Bachman, "fangs _Shining_ " as in The Shining, Cujo, " _Tommyknock_ you down..." as in The Tommyknockers, and "til you can't _Stand_ up" and I think The Stand is actually his most lengthy book ever
