What else should we react to? 🤔 Comment below! Also for those missed last Saturdays live ERB I’ve edited and will be uploading LATER TODAY!! 👀 That’s two ERBs for you heathens - now go buy merch www.knoxhillmusic.com
@@KnoxHill What’s funny is that’s story accurate. Juliet is hands down the smartest person in that whole play. And she’s 14! She corrects Romeo’s stupidity in his love confession in the balcony scene. She comes up with most of the plans to actually keep her marriage together and she offs herself cuz she realizes her husband and her ONLY other suitor are dead and the only option in that society she has, because she was married and consummated that marriage, is prostitution which usually ended in brutal murder. So which would she rather do? Oh, there’s a convenient dagger over there! There we go!
"Because naturally, if you can't become a mechanic you become a bank robber instead" Could be worse, there was that one man who got turned down from Art school...
@@CyborgCharlotte totally agree. Even though I thought it was funny, still appreciate it. I wonder if he researches the topics right beforehand, because he always has a high level of knowledge in a vast array of subjects at the tips of his fingers (if I haf to guess, based on his breakdowns, he doesn't. He's just that smart).
At 13:42 while Romeo is saying 'federal offence', he's also biting his thumb - at the very start of the play some Montague and Capulet men start a fight over one of them biting his thumb at the other - it was basically the 17th Century version of giving someone the middle finger
Actually, biting your thumb isn't an insult at all. It was used to show how blood thirsty and quick to take offense the houses were. They looked for any excuse to basically go at each other.
Giving somebody the finger was invented by the Romans and has been constant through history since. The biting the thumb was giving themselves minor injuries they could blame on the other side to justify a fight.
Monroe vs Cleopatra redefines the meaning of a "cat fight" and "gloves off". Its so dirty that the FDA has declared it not suitable for human consumption.
I really love this erb a lot, cause we all were expecting Bonnie and Clyde, two badasses in a couple, to both metaphorically and literally slaughter Romeo and Juliet, only for Romeo to lay down the gasoline and let Juliet brutally roast them! And at first, we’re like why are these dumb teen lovers winning, and then you realize “Oh. They’re Shakespeare characters. Literally the author is a poet! No wonder these two have a way with words!” But anyways, great video Knox!
"Dustbowl" - Happened during the 30's, which is the time when Bonnie & Clyde were actively committing their crimes. "Federal offense" - When Romeo does the thumb move, that's the Shakespearean era version of shooting the bird. Not only did Clyde unnecessarily cut his toes off, but it left him with a permanent limp, AND he was unable to wear shoes when he drove.
@@minelegend6557 Not just that, but even the little lines like 'Oooh can I be the Hyena, because I'm about to laugh' - Shaka threw the mother of one of enemies into a house full of hungry Hyenas (and then burned it down after). So Caesar's not only saying he doesn't take Shaka seriously, he's not just saying he's gonna rip Shaka apart, he's not just promising to be every bit as ruthless as Shaka was, but he's gonna deliver to Shaka the very same doom he forced on another. Pretty much every line of Caesar's is a double or more if you know the history and I friggin live for it!
@@Neion8 Also it's a response to Shaka's chicken line because in Shaka's culture when people die they are reincarnated into an animal based on how they lived their lives. So Caesar's mocking him being like "Ooh I like Hyenas can I have that one!
Cleopatra vs Marilyn Monroe!!!!! Knox's commentary when Romeo died KILLED MEEEEEE🤣🤣🤣🤣. Also ERB did a video of Michael Jordan vs Muhammad Ali (another great rap battle!) so that was most likely Michael Jordan you saw. They were played by Key and Peele I believe.
Tybalt: Mercutio's killer Dust Bowl: Was in northern Texas, but I think this was a time reference. Bonnie's Husband: Roy Thornton Juliet's last line in the play: "O happy dagger, this is thy sheath; there rest, and let me die." And yeah, Juliet took this by herself.
If I'm going by team, I'm giving Bonnie and Clyde the win, Romeo really drags down his team. If I'm going by individual performance, Juliet won hands down!!!
13:27 Bonnie and Clyde's (rap sheet) was so bad that they should've been Federal offense, but it wasn't the case back then and they were exploiting the "state line" rule which prevented officers from pursuing a fugitive into another jurisdiction, by swinging in a circle skirting the edges of five mid-western states. In the end, the ambush was done by officers from Texas and Louisiana. Bonnie and Clyde and their gang are the ones that inspired new federal statutes that made bank robbery and kidnapping federal offenses, some time after Bonnie and Clyde's death.
The "Federal offense" line was also a reference to how Bonnie and Clyde got away with their crimes for so long: it was pre-FBI, so once they crossed state lines the state patrol couldn't pursue them anymore.
This battle is like a three legged race where they all fall at the end.. Except Juliet who won by miles , then Bonnie, then is a photo finish between the other two that no one cares about by now.
That bar about Clyde from Juliet was historically accurate and a deep cut for Clyde. He was arrested and sent to Eastham prison in Lovelady, Texas where he suffered horrible abuse from the guards and one prisoner who violated him multiple times.
"Wherefore art thou Romeo?" She's basically asking herself why Romeo had to be a Montegue and not any other family. "Deny thy Father and refuse thy name, or if thou wilt not, be but sworn to my love and I'll no longer be a Capulet." Here she's asking Romeo to denounce his name and leave his family, but if he doesn't want to, if he promises to love her, she'll give up her own name. So it is kind of deep. Back then, especially with the Nobility, your family Name was often worth more than the actual person and to give up one's family was a pretty harsh thing to do... it'd be like a kid filing for emancipation from his parents, which is extreme. But let's be real, I'm sure you knew all that already. :D
I always like Mother Teresa and Sigmund Freud, the beat is amazing and the bars are so elaborate for Teresa. My personal favorite is James Bond vs Austin Powers
Romeo and Juliet” was based on the life of two real lovers who lived in Verona, Italy 1303, and who died for each other. Shakespeare is reckoned to have discovered this tragic love story in Arthur Brooke's 1562 poem entitled “The Tragical History of Romeo and Juliet” and rewrote it as a tragic story
LET'S GOO!! Just refreshed my feed and saw this uploaded, my Friday's been made!! Clint Eastwood vs Bruce Lee, Deadpool vs Boba Fett and Vlad the Impaler vs Count Dracula Edit: in the movie, Leguizamo played Tybalt, who killed Mercutio
"I've been known to fire off some BARs" Yes, Browning Automatic Rifle, Clyde's weapon of choice so he was actually known to "fire off some BARs." That weapon was a big reason they were ambushed and killed the way they were.
Hannah Hart (Bonnie) and Grace Helbig (Juliet) are friends from Early RUclips days and it shows that they had SO MUCH FUN doing this. The third person of their RUclips trio, Mamrie Hart played Julia Child (vs Gordon Ramsay) which.. If you haven't seen it it's the best. Hanna was MyDrunkKitchen BTW, and Grace was ItsGrace and/or DailyGrace... Yo somebody should react to old MyDrunkKitchen videos they were comedy gold.
10:22 sorry, I need that timestamp, because that stabbing attempt for some reason is god tier comedy to me, I want a clip of that repeating over and over I love this man.
13:51 That was my face when my deeply moral grandfather in his final days was telling a story about working in the fields as a teen. The young guys would hang back with a young girl they liked until the adults were out of sight and then, quote "put the bone to her", end quote. As with Juliet's lines, there were multiple levels of shock.
David Copperfield vs Harry Houdini and George Carlin vs Richard Pryor are very unique I highly recommend them. Also I missed half the Wayne Gretzky vs Toby Hawk stream so I hope you post that soon : D
I agree juliet killed the whole thing but gotta give it to Romeo for taking the hard road by being more in character and sticking with the Shakespearean English more often
I like how savage Juliet is in this. Although I absolutely despise Romeo & Juliet. It’s not romantic, it’s two rich kids who are obsessed with each other.
I don't know if anyone said this yet. But, Bonnie married her high school classmate, Roy Thornton, six days before she turnung 16. Like Knox said, the two never divorced and remained married until Bonnie died.
I know you said you are going to do all the ERB, if you haven't already done them for pattern exclusive some really top ones are Stan Lee vs Jim Henson, Artists vs TMNT, George Carlin vs Richard Pryor, Dr Seuss vs Shakespeare, Caesar vs Shaka Zulu, Thomas Jefferson vs Fredrick Douglas, and George Washington vs William Wallace. I have been loving your album and can't wait for the new one, so glad I found you through the Falling In Reverse reaction rabbit hole I went down. Edit: I forgot MJ vs Elvis that is another great older one
@@jamesjenkins7085 from what I can tell he doesn't post the replay. He did Tony Hawk vs Gretzky live and I thought "I'll watch that later". Never posted it.
@@jamesjenkins7085 well last week the livestream went completely south. And this is the most savage battle from ERB. It's better if he plays it safe with that one.
Ill be honest...i didnt think very much of you the first time i clicked on one of your videos. But you have absolutely gained my respect for your intelligence and insight that you have shown in these videos.
I don’t know anything about Romeo and Juliet besides the basics since I’ve never bothered to look into the story so you explaining the story to explain the bars is genuinely helpful and actually made me appreciate the disses and the burns from this rap a lot more so thank you
4:20 Yeah, most people seem to miss the point of Romeo and Juliette. It's not a tragic romance, it's a black comedy. It's a parody and satire of overzealous teenage love. When you look at it in broad strokes, it's the story of a two week long summer fling between a couple of teenagers who literally just met and it ends with everyone dead. How could that possibly be meant to be taken seriously?
Some of the best short ones are einstein vs Stephen hawking and sherlock holmes vs batman...Vlad the impaler vs dracula and isaac newton vs bill nye arent short but still also very good
Yo Knox Hill your new album is killer bro, sick flows. You have inspired me to practice on my writing and freestyling by watching your breakdowns so I can actually add lyrics to the beats i make. Keep doin you, dude
Just wanted to point this out: During Shakespearean times, when someone does that thumb thing Romeo did earlier, its basically their version of showing a middle finger.
You know man, I just found your ERB reacts, and I have to say this... I never ever saw any american youtubers in this category who were so well informed and educated as you. In every video you make mostly true and really good notes and facts about the theme and you have really good historical knowledge. It's really strange from a yankee. :D Big respect, really.
Apparently a favorite gun of Clyde was actually a french weapon called the Bar, it wasn't a brownings. I used to build gun kits and that gun at the start is actually the French Bar.
Worst part of the play? Romeo was 18 and Juliet was 13… normal at the time, but still weird as fu*k. Though it is important to note that even at the time, sleeping with a 13 year old would be looked down upon. Even noble girls would wait until they’re in their mid to late teens to do stuff
Tybalt, that's the name of the dude that killed mercutio. Also, did you catch the thumb when he said "federal offense"? That's how the play started out, two Capulets and two Montegeaus were each walking, one of them- I forget which- bit his thumb which in those days was the same as giving a middle finger, and the other side thought he was biting his thumb at them and they started fighting.
What else should we react to? 🤔 Comment below! Also for those missed last Saturdays live ERB I’ve edited and will be uploading LATER TODAY!! 👀 That’s two ERBs for you heathens - now go buy merch www.knoxhillmusic.com

@@KnoxHill What’s funny is that’s story accurate. Juliet is hands down the smartest person in that whole play. And she’s 14! She corrects Romeo’s stupidity in his love confession in the balcony scene. She comes up with most of the plans to actually keep her marriage together and she offs herself cuz she realizes her husband and her ONLY other suitor are dead and the only option in that society she has, because she was married and consummated that marriage, is prostitution which usually ended in brutal murder.

@@TheKyfe Yeah, he has said he researches some of the ones he doesn't fully know much about. Mad respect for the effort the guy puts into his work.
Please never change, Knox 🤣🙏🏻
"Where's Romeo? OH NOMEO!" has to be my favorite line ever. Can't hear it in her voice and not giggle.

Monroe vs Cleopatra redefines the meaning of a "cat fight" and "gloves off". Its so dirty that the FDA has declared it not suitable for human consumption.
As dirty as MM's "cat"
So bad they had to give Monroe an extra verse to recover from the damage.
They went in on each other with viciousness
@@katsunada Her first verse was split into two that's why it is so short. Monroe and Cleopatra actually got equal times on their turns.
@@GriseWeisshark they don't actually... Monroe got 10sec + 20sec+10sec
And Cleopatra only got 20sec+10sec
So Marilyn got more time
Let's be honest.....Juliet won the whole battle 😂
facts tho
Big Facts
💯
Juliet absolutely murdered everyone despite being sided with Romeo.
@@jamesfrazier7823 And Romeo was next to useless aside from being Juliet's hypeman lmao
"Thus with a diss, I die" is a reference to the line Romeo says "thus with a kiss, I die" before he dies in the play.

there are four people in this Rap Battle
three of which are adults
but the most savage lines came from a damn 13 year old
'13 y/o'
is that not how it always is though...
@Xerius Romeo in the Shakespeare play was 21.
@@WorldTree33 His age was never confirmed
Tybalt: Mercutio's killer
Dust Bowl: Was in northern Texas, but I think this was a time reference.
Bonnie's Husband: Roy Thornton
Juliet's last line in the play: "O happy dagger, this is thy sheath; there rest, and let me die."
And yeah, Juliet took this by herself.
There rust and let me die
Also Tybalt was Juliet’s cousin. So technically Romeo killed his cousin in-law for killing his best friend.
"do you quarrel sir?" is also a reference to the first scene in romeo and juliet, where two servants from each house get into a fight.
I think the true irony is that Romeo was considered the height of masculinity at the time.
“Juliet in the house”
This Knox quote explains the entire battle
I love how when Romeo mentions the whole Ford ordeal, Juliet's face just looks so amused because of such savagery.
Michael Jordan vs Muhammad Ali is straight fire, there are so many ruthless personals.
This!
Gandhi vs MLK too!!
Dude you gotta do the Cleopatra vs Marlyn Monroe. Theres a bar in that, that hits pretty hard
Exactly my thought
Iykyk
Not only a bar, entire battle has savage lines all over

Michael Jackson vs Elvis Presley
Steve Jobs vs Bill Gates
James Bond vs Austin Powers

That bar about Clyde from Juliet was historically accurate and a deep cut for Clyde. He was arrested and sent to Eastham prison in Lovelady, Texas where he suffered horrible abuse from the guards and one prisoner who violated him multiple times.
Knox, the look on your face whenever Juilet gets started was everything I had hoped for.
We know the real title of this battle is Bonnie vs Juliet and Juliet won. They really write cat fights
"Wherefore art thou Romeo?" She's basically asking herself why Romeo had to be a Montegue and not any other family.

"not a true romance" I just realized, after years, this could be a reference to the movie True Romance, written by Tarantino

@@OpDDay2001 I agree. Wtf is Yankee suppose do mean. This guy is just insulting all Americans
@@jduck5469 oh you must be very young to now know a yankee is an insult to the people in northern US.. lol dating back to civil war times.
It was after he got stabbed that he said "A plague on both your houses" because he got hurt because of the houses fighting
you should watch Jacque Cousteau vs Steve Irwin. It was some really good lines
Plus the sound effects there was awesome
Apparently a favorite gun of Clyde was actually a french weapon called the Bar, it wasn't a brownings. I used to build gun kits and that gun at the start is actually the French Bar.
Julie have a strong back carrying the whole battle like that
Or very heavy boobs and it just perfectly balances out the weight 🤔
@@F1rstWorldNomaD perfectly balanced....as all should be
@@leverite6127 HAH! I see what you did there 🤣🤣🤣
Bro I've been waiting for you to watch this one. Juliet is built different
Freddy Krueger vs Wolverine is a good one
Worst part of the play? Romeo was 18 and Juliet was 13… normal at the time, but still weird as fu*k. Though it is important to note that even at the time, sleeping with a 13 year old would be looked down upon. Even noble girls would wait until they’re in their mid to late teens to do stuff
Gotta do Stan lee vs Jim Henson next Knox!!!!!!!!!!!!
finally been requesting this battle, happy you finally react to this.
Freddy Krueger vs Wolverine!!! Savage all the way through!
people who subscribe do actually get a bag.. a bag of top tier content and music. love you knox!
You’ll love Michael Jordan vs Muhammad Ali with the special appearance
Tybalt, that's the name of the dude that killed mercutio. Also, did you catch the thumb when he said "federal offense"? That's how the play started out, two Capulets and two Montegeaus were each walking, one of them- I forget which- bit his thumb which in those days was the same as giving a middle finger, and the other side thought he was biting his thumb at them and they started fighting.
Well after this, he need to connect into Shakespeare vs Dr Suess
