Evolution of WOTFI Rap Battles in SMG4 Videos (2015-2022)

[@supermariokyle6835]

I think they are all really good, especially for the what his channel was at the time

[@milesedgeworth8683]

The only negative to WOTFI 2021 is the fact that this is out of place. Genesis Arc is easily the darkest arc in the series so it is weird to end it with something lighthearted

Also to be honest I would give WOTFI 2022 a 9 or 10/10

Smg4 really came a long way from 2015. But hasn’t anyone realized we literally had like, 3 arcs over the past 3 years and not a normal WOTFI because normally, on odd years, it’s Smg4 vs. Mairo, but on even years, it’s the Smg-Gang against some big bad for the year

[@jessemcglynn5616]

I agree with you and I also think this but I think the reason why it was “worse” than 2021 is because 2021 set the bar so high after 2020. I would argue that 2021 is better but 2022 is just as good if not better and I totally respect it if you think 2022 had a better rap.

I have no idea why, but 2022 just feels like the end of SMG4’s storyline, but we all know it’s not going to end that easily.

[@Scratchy__The_cat]

True, it just feels like among other threats in the mushroom kingdom, not being in it at all is pretty much a death sentence, and it really shows how much Mario cares about SMG4, especially how after the rap battle in the original video, a part of it is just how Mario was crying over the thought of losing him.

It feels like the end, one reason I feel like it's the end (even though it's probably not) is because of them recapping all the villains they've defeated.

Personally, I find 2020 and 2022 better than 2021. 2020 had one of the best flows out of all the rap battles but then everyone’s lyrics fell off later on. 2022 had almost the same flow as 2020 and THEY SOMEHOW MADE LAWYER KING ACTUALLY SOUND GOOD LIKE HOLY CRAP. The cherry of top was the witness testimonies bro they were so good and conducted really well. My only complaint is that it sounded like SMG3 was about to crack when he was saying “L + Ratio + You look like a minion”

Wotfi 2021 was the most eventful and story-driven wotfi arc ever put on the SMG4 channel. A great sacrifice was made, and it was two lovers of course. It really reminds me ever since the Revelations arc Melony never went back to visit Axol at least we know of, perhaps SMG4 forgot about the whole Axol thing when focusing on the Lawsuit Arc. Wotfi 2021 looks so damn clean and I couldn't have wanted anything better from the team just doing their honest best, along with making Zero(Within Axol's Vessel) sound so good during the rap battle like honestly SMG4 is just THAT good at what he does.

[@anoldweirdo7084]

I think 22 strikes a balance between rapping and a legit good song and really stood out to me. If you are looking for the best rap, then nothing beats 17 because of it's constant fast pace and good lyrics. An honorable mention is 18, it's slightly faster than 17 except of it's slightly bland instrumental that was holding it back.

[@zionenonly1774]

I gotta give 2022 some credit due to them being able to somehow make text to speech rap so well

[@trainerlsw]

My listing of these raps 1. 2021, It’s just epic, that’s it. A final battle of mass proportions, with an incredible finale. The “3, 2, 1, 0!” always gets me. 2. 2020, That part where Meggy starts singing is so amazing! The flow is really good! 3. 2022, Awesome flow and synergy with all of the characters! The part when they start singing all together is the cherry on top. 4. 2018, The start of then the rap battles start getting serious, but also has that meme feel. 5. 2019, Back to basics, I have no big feelings. The ending is good though. 6. 2017, Even though I like this one, it’s not as good as the more recent ones as they are really epic. 7. 2016, Bowser easily carries this song, and the back and forth between him, Mario, and SMG4 was cool. 8. 2015, you could say it’s a classic, but I really don’t like it. I know it was back in the old days when memes were a lot more wilder, but I never really enjoyed it.

[@Burning-Moon]

You can just feel that as the years pass by, he sounds more enthusiastic about the rap battles in each WOTFI. Also, I think 2016 deserves at least an 8/10. The beat is pretty cool. And I find it great how SMG3, was once on the evil side, but changed to SMG4's side, to help. I kinda do miss evil SMG3...
