After viewing these two videos, we are going to have to ask you to sit down Drake. Eminem has always been quick at spitting out what is on his mind with the crisp pronunciation, Drake, you do that too but that does not make you a Rap King like Eminem. While Hot 97 radio host Ebro Darden said a potential rap battle between rappers Drake and Eminem was just a joke, Slim Shady is apparently taking it seriously. The “8 Mile” star is convinced he would slay Drake in a rap battle, Hollywood Life wrote in an exclusive report Thursday. Eminem has stated that he has much respect for Drake, but we think when the battle bell rings, Eminem will be the first to stand up with his boxing gloves ready to fight.

Mean while we would like to introduce you to American Rapper and Comedian, David Andrew Burd better known by his stage name Lil Dicky... or LD. He came to prominence with the release of the music video to his song "Ex-Boyfriend", which went viral with more than one million views on YouTube in 24 hours. He released his debut album Professional Rapper on July 31, 2015. Lil Dicky's style blends the comical with the relatable. According to Boston magazine, "Content-wise, Lil Dicky comes up with his material from everyday occurrences and everyday experiences. From there, he crafts his videos around those topics to create a visual narrative that accompanies his talent as an emcee. 'It’s like a comedian. They are out in the world, and writing things down,' he said. What followed 'Ex-Boyfriend' was a series of other videos that covered similarly average everyday experiences—songs about staying in for the night, songs about being a Jewish kid—he even has a rap battle with Adolf Hitler in one of his videos. He says his style is a response to the excessive egotistical nature of rap today: "I really wanted to embody the exact opposite of that, and I think people are appreciating it. There just hasn't been a voice for that normal dude when it comes to rap." He added, "I think a lot of rap is just escalated to a place that many people can't relate to... My niche is that I’m relatable. I don’t rap about going to the club and popping bottles." In terms of his rapping skills, Lil Dicky is able "to manipulate words at an excessive speed, and weave rhyme patterns together in a way that's funny while also making viewers want to rewind parts of his videos."
