Behind the Scenes

The Behind the Scenes of the Epic Rap Battles of History is a series of videos created to show the viewers what goes on while creating the Rap Battles. Since Darth Vader vs Hitler, there has been at least one per battle. They are uploaded to the ERB2 Channel. Since Mario Bros vs Wright Bros, the thumbnail used on each video is identical to the one used on the original video, but with a green screen instead of the original background. The Behind The Scenes can involve interviews with members of the ERB crew, for example Jon Na or Andrew Sherman, and used to contain Lloyd's Heroin Joke.
