[@taufikmahbub8204]

Bro please make a video about Eminem getting scammed by Duran Duran fanbase over Vote Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They're 2Ok ahead of him. They even took help from other fanbases like Britney Spears,BTS, Taylor Swift and One directions.

[@mad_u_mad3612]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE FINISH HAMILTON!!!

[@jpro9522]

React to Finest Girl(Bin Laden song) It’s technically Lonely Island but from a movie called Pop Star: Never stop never stopping

[@thepig6054]

@Knox Hill when's your next Hamilton vid

[@mckenziebrewer7430]

HAMILTON!! And Pentatonix

[@monsterscrub1708]

I’m from Canada we are sorry about Bieber he wasn’t meant to escape

[@Ozzy_2014]

Hell nah! We did not want him here either!!

[@joshuataylor5080]

Sorry, he's yours now! No backsies,

[@neighbornextdoor6115]

Yall are so childish 💀💀💀

[@vintage-radio]

Take him back

[@DETH-PVNK]

You need better security then.

[@meepmeepmanker]

The absolute best thing of this battle was the remix of Beethovens symphony.

[@loshelley5804]

why does everyone think any classical music piece is automatically a symphony?

[@meepmeepmanker]

@@loshelley5804 It just is, no reason.

[@biloki3079]

I totally agree. Brilliant mix.

[@andirandolph8830]

Kinda reminds me of those Hooked On Classics albums from the 70s set to disco music. I loved that stuff.

[@kaizoisevil]

The Bieber parts were a remix of Fur Elise, and the Beethoven parts were a remix of the Fifth

[@Jirodyne]

A fun History Fact. Do you know how Hearing Aids works for Deaf and Old people? They work by Vibrating a bone in your ear, letting sound travel down it to the ear drum. Do you know how long people have known about that? So long ago infact, that Beethoven wrote and played his music on a specially crafted Piano that had a bar sticking up and out in the front of it, that he would bite onto, and the Vibrations from it would let him hear his music, even while heavily deaf.

[@cocoamazon559]

Came to mention this! Also the piano being on the floor too. He sawed the legs of and would lay down the legless one on their back to feel the vibrations to write his music

[@vintage-radio]

Interesting

[@littlekuribohimposte]

The reason Beethoven and other composers had hearing problems is because Classical is louder than any other music. PEople think metal is loud, but that's two guitars a bass and a drum kit. Classical is hundreds of instruments, and having to get hit by all that sound for years is gonna be pretty damn loud

[@Ozzy_2014]

Actually he had damage probably from being beat by his father, the term upbraided refers to being slapped on the back of the head. A full grown man slams his hand against a kid's head it does damage. Yeah nowadays its criminal assault and child abuse. Used to be normal. Even for my Father's generation ( boomer 1). Brings another meaning to being smacked. Also trade blows might be a gay joke about bieber. Plus for someone who can't hit puberty he badly needs to lose the 5 o clock shadow. 😅😎

[@bookish_heather]

He had menieres disease

[@trashcake4863]

I was not aware of any of these explanations. I only knew of the one that relates his hearing loss to wine containing lead, which apparently was a cheap method of sweetening in those days.

[@jaakkot5440]

I've read that the hearing loss was caused by lead. In the past, lead was used in a lot of things.

[@Lisztomaniac1022]

There is also a theory that it was from consumption of water with lead from the time. That was another big cause of deafness back then as well

[@MrGBH]

"I've got a concert in five so there's not much time left" This came out shortly after Bieber was late to one of his own concerts because he was partying, and refused to apologise to his fans

[@Shreysoldier]

You're literally the only one who pointed this. So ty

[@Arbaaltheundefeated]

@@Shreysoldier Probably because nobody else gives a sh** about Bieber's lines really :p Bieber lost when the matchup was revealed.

[@theyneverlearn3679]

@@Arbaaltheundefeated Correction: Bieber lost when his name was announced. It didn't matter who the opponent was; Bieber lost

[@Arbaaltheundefeated]

@@theyneverlearn3679 True, they did say his name first.

[@Sweetish_Jeff_]

I’m not a fan of Bieber, but this was clearly done to shred Justin Bieber. And, you know what? I love it. 🤪

[@ethmodecroft7233]

Just want to say I usually hate reaction content but you bring such charisma and so much information you make it actually worth watching

[@trajectoryunown]

Piggybacking off of other people's content isn't very noble, but I think the game is changed when somebody brings additional insight to said content or at the very least renders the original content to a state where it can't be substituted for the original.

[@KarasouTengu]

I think it's because Knox takes EVERYTHING into consideration, While regular reactors only get what they get, and things fly overhead. Or Could be because most are over reactors lol.

[@jayef10]

Ya he’s got a lot of depth and knowledge reacting.

[@blackjack8984]

Indeed It is really nice when they bring info you don't know

[@vintage-radio]

Agreed

[@nerddwarf]

Knox, what you fail to realise, is us Canadians, we expel our greatest disgraces to the American Music Industry We don't have our own Music Industry because we're to busy shovelling snow and building convoys

[@KnoxHill]

🤣🤣🤘

[@nerddwarf]

I can't edit this now without losing the heart but I wrote "to" where I should have wrote "too"

[@TheOnyxSpy]

How are you gonna proudly state that when you guys had Rush and Celine Dion? 🤣🤣🤣

[@nerddwarf]

@@TheOnyxSpy I'll be honest, I'm just a massive fucking nerd, the majority of my music is independent artists on KZbin.....**cough**

[@TheOnyxSpy]

@@nerddwarf As a nerd, you must have listened to Rush a few times then, no? If not, you're doing yourself a GREAT disservice.

[@MiraTheWarlock]

It's usually up to the viewers to vote who won ....Lets be honest ERB had a clear winner in mind for this one

[@warpdrivefueledbyinsomnia8165]

This was a squash match.

[@thegrayshaws]

Bieber's line "No one listens to classical" hits even worse since the beat has elements of Fur Elise like you mentioned but also Beethoven's 5th symphony.

[@TheOtherGuys2]

"See my hands, conducting a nightmare. The beauty of a melody, is all that inspires me To write my last symphony. Perpetual dream never lets go of me, I struggle to live without the notion of a sound That could have opened my mind." Any time I think about Beethoven, this song is instantly in my brain.

[@spartan_warrior5927]

RIP Betty White.

[@AllinOne-oi9ds]

Justin is completely a different person now

[@NadeTheFun]

It makes me sad how one day, Knox would run out of ERBs to react to

[@KnoxHill]

Then we make our own? Or find more fun things to do on a Friday

[@matthiasgrollnigg2780]

Bro there's still freshy kanal's battles to react to don't worry

[@matthiasgrollnigg2780]

Always awesome videos Knox, especially the ERBs, keep it up man

[@scorcher55_69]

@@KnoxHill Maybe you check out Zack Sherwin's channel or Lloyd's channel. Zach Sherwin has some tracks like No E (featuring watsky btw), the letter C, and switch it up you might like. Epic Lloyd's got a series called dis raps for hire with like 20 epsiodes.

[@Sweetish_Jeff_]

@@KnoxHill How about react to the behind the scenes of ERB? That could be cool.

[@omfg666able]

Bro you need to do Mr T vs Mr Rogers. It's the best!! Thank you.

[@ingiford175]

This

[@seanmills7168]

My very first exposure to ERB was this one, some friends were watching it and when it came to the “who even listens to classical anyway” line, all of us put our hands up. There’s a reason it’s still around whereas Justin will be forgotten eventually.

[@srg08]

Justin…who?? Is he some I should know? Who are talking about again?

[@xheralt]

That's the point Mozart made against Skrillex in their rap battle. "My music's 200 years old and it's still excellent / in two weeks people will forget your Skill-excrement!"

[@nightstorm5914]

@@srg08 "Who? Who the f* is Justin Bieber" - Ozzy Osbourne

[@brandyjoiner9575]

Next ERB Suggestions: Mr. T vs. Mr. Rogers Bob Ross vs. Pablo Picasso Rick Grimes vs. Walter White Nice Peter vs. Epic Lloyd (1 & 2) Mitt Romney vs. Barack Obama (it may be a little dated, but it's definitely still worth watching IMO)

[@moonfyps9307]

Mr. T vs. Mr. Rogers first pls. :D

[@WildWombats]

Surprised he hasn't seen these honestly!

[@JetEyeMonkey]

Dang, yeah Mr T VS Roger's. I forgot about that one, it's pretty good

[@Veliki_Covek.]

I can’t get Mr.Roger breakdancing out of my head.

[@JetEyeMonkey]

@Veliki_Covek. for me it was Stefen Hawking in his wheel chair singing there are 10 million million million, in his chair like he's "dancing" on Einstines grave

[@sicklyaura]

Seeing a lot of comment's requesting Mr T vs Mr Rogers. I agree on that, and also, I don't think you've checked it out yet but Frederick Douglass vs Thomas Jefferson. Personally, not one of my favorite erbs, but definitely a decent one. Also, I think you'll love some if the references in each of Douglas's verses

[@AgustastaGW]

Theres also huidini vs copperfield

[@passionsquietrage]

The thing I love about this battle is the fact that it was making fun of JB the whole time LMAO

[@brandyjoiner9575]

The best way to start my weekend! I can't wait to see your breakdown on another ERB. ❤

[@jenjensage7242]

It’s always a great day when Knox is reacting to ERB. Have a great weekend. ❤️✌🏻

[@kyokonightstorm5844]

Something I've always thought of here. Generally speaking, if a guy sits through an entire classical music performance with a lady, then he's more likely to get laid then if they went to a Beiber concert.

[@melissajohnson504]

I love all of your ERB breakdowns. I look forward to Fridays as your content is amazing. If you would like more rap battles, please look up Whitney Avalon and her Princess Rap Battles (even though not all of the characters are princesses). Anyway, keel up the good work and I look forward to seeing more of your stuff when you post

[@iddoboomgaard353]

Been loving your reactions and music. One question: Are you okay with people playing you're music on streams and behind videos?

[@magnusbjrnli4363]

Love your videos keep up the Good work much love from Norway

[@KnoxHill]

Much love to you! Thanks for supporting 🤘

[@trium1554]

Frederick Douglass vs Thomas Jefferson please!

[@Kaylee-ki4qx]

Love the ERB breakdowns ☺️

[@thymfkrow_krowsnest]

I do a lot of reaction channels Heard anther channel say if want every lyric broke down go to Knox Hill. So glade jkbros gave you a shout out. Best reaction channel by far. THANK YOU for your Knowledge

[@michelejones4844]

Always love your breakdowns. If you want to get an extra laugh, you should watch the behind the scenes video for this rap. It definitely shows they had fun on set for this one

[@darkjezter163]

I've been waiting for this breakdown

[@TheZoenGaming]

In this episode of ERB Reactions Knox tells all about how he got his most shameful tattoo!

[@RogueMonkeey]

Love this one more than most great breakdown

[@brandyjoiner9575]

Knox is so funny! "We're not gonna show the name? I just wanna see WHO PLAYED BIEBER!!" 😂

[@grantpflum6844]

One would hardly think landing a Kardashian for a weekend is any kind of flex. Its a bit like bragging about winning bingo at your churches weekly game. Its something that happens a bit to frequently to brag about.

[@summerrose8110]

Kanye is married to a gold digger. Nobody is jealous of him.

[@MasterTMO]

You missed an opportunity - at the beginning where the text pops up "Beethoven vs The Biebs", you could have written "The Beets vs The Biebs". ;)

[@sg_bun]

I second Mr T vs Mr Rogers it's hilarious. And yeah this one of those where one person was setup to fail

[@e.y.d.6079]

You know, I sometimes wonder what this battle would look like if it was made today. Both in terms of Bieber's image change and ERB's current production quality.

[@qui_X]

I'm not a fan of this battle, but a fan of you so thumbs up!

[@brandeethacker9960]

Knox as always great with the breakdowns. Now, please can we get some more Nova on your channel? Her live, studio version of “Problem” will blow your mind. 🤯🤯🔥🤯🔥🤯🔥🤯🔥🤯🔥

[@someidiotwithalamp]

I’m requesting the only battle that might be as one sided as this one: Mr T vs Mr Rogers

[@chsbob9]

Fun story (not sure if fact or not) about Fur Elise: he originally started it as a song that mediocre piano players, like Elise, could play well and sound good. When he found out she was betrothed, he ramped up the difficulty towards the end in a fit of jealousy.

[@sidneyrester6100]

one of my faves

[@williamwramp3402]

Jumping in early here but Beethoven went deaf due the the lead based face powders that were used at the time. It was actually quite common

[@kaizoisevil]

This came out back when Bieber was just a kid. It was popular to hate on him.

[@AKAI2002]

Alex Farnham used to star in Bart Baker's parodies, who in turn used to play Bieber XD

[@Aeistheticism]

Bach is from the Baroque period, Knox. Beethoven is from the Classical period.

[@kingclint2382]

😎 back for ERB

[@mattstanford9673]

That...was a very specific Bieber Fever example. Is there something you’re trying to tell us, Knox? >,>

[@LED816]

The guy playing Bieber is Alex (can’t remember the last name) but he did some funny stuff with Bart baker when he was still popular.

[@sarahdrake3007]

So great

[@vinisardagna]

I know I'm sorta late, but "Sickology 101" by Tech N9ne, Chino XL and Crooked I is a god-damned masterpiece. The perfect lesson in rapping. Would love for you to check it out.

[@eeveeborn1418]

That usher line at the end had another meaning and there was a reason usher was brought into it. Usher was the one who basically found Beiber on youtube or whatever it was (the famous person that did) and he liked what he heard and thought he had potential so he reached out to him to help him become who he was so beiber would be nothing without Usher so that's why he said he wanted to be a little white usher

[@lumbahrye]

A neat detail is all the broken pianos for Beethoven. He was known to play very vigorously (perhaps because of losing or having lost his hearing), and so was very rough with the keys, hitting them very hard. He is said to have broken many.

[@Dezzyyx]

Get on that new Slaughterhouse reaction!

[@mad_u_mad3612]

Love your videos but I’m so anxious to see you finish Hamilton!

[@davidarcherd9868]

You should check out Princess Rap Battles by Whitney Avalon. Start up with Katniss Everdeen vs Hermione Granger, and Anna vs Rappunzel

[@possibear]

fyi, the period and comma allow you to move videos frame by frame on youtube. the arrows allow for 5s which is most commonly known

[@hebrewhammer9068]

Bro we need you to get on that Joell & King Crook - Vacancy song

[@JeffOfTheMountains]

Beethoven won when the matchup was announced. Next up: Princess Rap Battles.

[@SouperCatLord]

Remember Hamilton? Would be pretty cool if you reacted to the rest of it :) ;-;

[@oddbird5825]

Do a nice for once. Leonidas Vs. Master Chief is a fun one.

[@Obsessor23]

You should check out Lewis & Clark vs. Bill & Ted next

[@derekforney2623]

Thank you!

[@TheTripplerParadox]

Hey mr.hill ( just saying it that way cause of respect) have you ever thought or hit requests to react to any of daddphatsnaps songs? There are some bangers I think you would enjoy breaking down :)

[@GvozdeniGrom]

*Knox finally does Bieber vs Bethoven battle* *I rise from the nether regions of youtube lurkdoom, summoned by the need to do my usual spiel* As I always seem to be doing in comments on reactions to this particular ERB: An interesting thing to consider: Bach mentioned and guest appearing in Bethoven's lines is more probable to be Karl Emanuel Bach, rather than Johan Sebastian, due to K. E. being Bethoven's contemporary, and Bethoven considering him to be a better composer than his father. Brought to you by the effort to shine more light on just how much the long shadow of J. S. B. had historically robbed his children of their rightfully earned acolades.

[@AlwaysAndForever7]

Have you watched Step Up? It’s a dance movies but it does a cool job blending classical / ballet and hip hop, and the blend in this battle reminded me of that - might be cool to check out!

[@froilandragon5693]

8:50 Well, I mean the portrayer of JB, Alex Farnham is notorious for making satirical takes of Justin Bieber with his friend Bart Baker, a KZbinr that used to make weird and brutal parodies of famous songs.

[@JayeshKumar-oi3yj]

Bruhh i was really waiting for this

[@greninjassj691]

Yo the Beethoven movies are fire! I still have the CD inside a Mortal Kombat case somewhere in my basement.

[@robertmobley3681]

Alex Farnham isn't half bad. Look up Mockstars : Captain Jack's Rap. It features Nice Peter.

You gotta check KXNG Crooked & Joell Ortiz’s vacancy and the new album coming with it. Royce has been chirping up on twitter too

[@worlddom3636]

You should react to the "Key of Awesome" videos... Their parodies were genius. I don't think they make anymore videos, but you should check one out.

Loved the review. Can you do a breakdown of 21 Pilots song “Outside”?

[@bmak111]

Please do Napoleon Bonaparte vs Napoleon Dynamite

[@bryceanwhimsey]

You speak facts about the deafness. When you said it, I had to stop the video and listen to the second movement of the 7th. Thus with this comment do I accomplish the multi-task of being pretentious, recommending a work that illustrates your point and that you should all hear, and just being happy that music is a thing.

[@ghost_curse]

Peter appeared in a pirate rap on Alex's channel around the same time, it's worth checking out

[@InfinityDz]

Fun fact, Elise was pretty much a mystery woman, nobody really knows who she was. She's sort of the Mona Lisa of music.

[@RaveVinc]

Can you react to some game OST, like Nier:Automata, or Persona 5. Love your channel man!

[@FinestFantasyVI]

This was my first ERB
