I've been watching Epic Rap Battles of History since a bit after it began and while some of their stuff has flopped, others are truly fantastic. But the entertainment value pales besides the educational one. For example, I didn't know anything about Neil deGrasse Tyson until I saw him on the Sir Isaac Newton vs Bill Nye battle ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yis7GzlXNM&list=PLQ-7WiWmOuK9kZYOD9Z8MhZK-0Fv6T3c5). I went out and found a video of him speaking on space as culture ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNxnCzz5oQE) and I have to say, he's "bad ass".
I've never really looked up anything about Raphael or Donatello until I saw the renaissance masters vs. TMNT. Now I have to at least look over their wikipedia entries. It's the little bits of trivia put into the raps that grab you the most. You just want to look them up, even if just to see if they're true. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:371820 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
