Epic Rap Battles Of History Markets 3rd Season With Contest, 1.2 Billion Views

Epic Rap Battles of History concluded it’s 13-month-long, 18-episode second season with a battle between Russians that does the series’ name justice. The 16 million views and counting sendoff featuring Grigori Rasputin, Joseph Stalin, Vladimir Lenin, Mikhail Gorbachev, and Vladimir Putin added to the program’s two-season cumulative viewcount of over 1.2 billion and helped drive YouTube.com/ERB’s subscriber base pass the 5.5 million subs mark.

To commemorate the occasion ERB is selling a Limited Edition Season 2 CD. It consists of all 12 battles, a 40-page lyric booklet, an official ERB voting ballot, stickers, and remastered tracks. And to get fans pumped for Season 3 (which Teddy Roosevelt tells us will debut sometime this Autumn

), ERB creators Nice Peter and Epic Lloyd are inviting one lucky fan (and one lucky fan’s special guest) to join them on set. Here’s Roosevelt with the details:

And despite the fact ERB released its Season 2 Finale over a month ago on April 22, the show still tearing up the YouTube charts. This week it was the 43 Most Viewed YouTube Channel Worldwide with over 11.9 million views.
