Lincoln VS Norris - Behind the Scenes

Hi, my name is Nice Peter, and this is a behind the scenes look at how we made Epic Rap Battles of History 3. It's a long, hard, awesome process, and I hope this gives you a little peek of what goes into it. I'll tell you a little more, if you like, but first, special thanks to Mike Schroeder from www.youtube.com for editing this video. Okay, here's the whole story of how we get these made. First, me and Lloyd (Hitler, Bill O'Reilly, Chuck Norris) sit down and look through the comment suggestions for a new rap. We are looking for interesting match-ups, people that make sense together but not exactly. With Lincoln VS Norris, we liked it because Chuck Norris has become this mythical American hero, and Lincoln is like this classic American hero, and we thought they would have a lot to say to each other. Next, we find the beat. That's a very hard part, finding the perfect beat. We found this one from MrFlamez, a very talented young producer out of Chicago. You can check out his other work here: www.youtube.com After that comes the writing process, going through every joke combination and reference, finding the story, finding the essentials of their argument. We want these raps to be funny, but also sensible. Lloyd helps me, I help Lloyd, and together we sort it out. Then we decide who's playing who, sometimes, like this one, it's obvious. In the future we're going to bring in some special guest rappers, but Lloyd will always be involved, don't worry. Next comes recording ...
