‘Epic Rap Battles’ Co-Creator Lloyd Ahlquist Shares Trailer For New Web Series, Coming April 26th

Thanks to his work on Epic Rap Battles of History (ERB), Lloyd Ahlquist can say that he co-created one of the most esteemed, awarded, and successful web series of all time. Now, he has another show to add to his portfolio. Ahlquist has shared the trailer for Epic Studios, a musical comedy that will arrive on his EpicLLOYD YouTube channel on April 26th.

In Epic Studios, Ahlquist portrays the inheritor of a recording space who must work together with his ragtag group of employees to keep the business afloat. Along the way, viewers can expect several elements that are also hallmarks of ERB, as Epic Studios is also a blend of music, comedy, and delightfully low-budget green-screen effects. As its trailer shows, its 13 episodes will include 13 new music videos, with Ahlquist showing off his lyrical chops as well as his acting skills.

Epic Studios has been in the works since at least 2015, when a clip from it popped up online. According to a press release, the show was officially greenlit at the 2016 Just For Laughs festival in Montreal.

Ahlquist’s new show will serve as a nice treat for ERB fans as they eagerly await more episodes of the epochal battle rap bonanza. The upload frequency of that series has slowed down of late, with Ahlquist and co-creator Peter Shukoff opting to take their time with new installments.

Beyond his work on ERB and Epic Studios, Ahlquist has also launched several other projects on his personal channel, which has close to 500,000 subscribers. One of his most notable projects is Dis Raps For Hire, which spanned 16 episodes across two seasons.
