- Some may question his methods, but the God of War only wants what’s best for his… *clears throat*... BOY! It’s Father vs Son, Dad vs Parenting For Dummies, Kratos vs Atreus in BOY: God of War Battle Rap!
While the promise of tough battles in God of War Ragnarok looms over Kratos, no doubt featuring plenty of giants, draugr and ogres - not to mention the threat posed by Baldur, Magni, Modi, and the Chris Hemsworth lookalike, Thor - the bald-headed Spartan needs Atreus to step up. And there's only one way he can get his son to do that. It’s time for Kratos to obtain double god status: the GOW (God of War) is also now the GOR (God of Rapnarok).

First reply lol
Kratos: boy
Boy
Fire
Feeling this ☯️❤😁👍🤍
Fun fact: Kratos calls Atreus boy because when those lines of dialog were recorded they didn't have a name for Atreus.
Is that true
Yes
now imagine if Atreus had been black
I heard the VA forgot his name so often
@@JupitersTears Christopher Judge is the VA! i doubt that legend forgets his lines XD!
Boy went from a clueless kid to a complete badass at the end of game, I’m sure Kratos would be proud but he probably wouldn’t say it out loud.
@Superlazyboy07 Can imagine his aknowledgement being simply something like in this rap- going from teaching "shot them in the throat or you won't destroy", to proudly just telling him "shoot them. Slay them. Dead them."
Well, one of Kratos' struggles in being a good father is that he doesn't want him to be like him. I mean, he would be proud in that he can defend himself, but being a badass in this series is being a genocidal maniac 9 times out of 10.
@@soulcyclone360 Look, sometimes you gotta have standards.
Well he calls him ‘son’ later
@Superlazyboy07 his Spartan upbringing alone doesn’t really lend him to being that sort of father. The life of a Spartan is ruthless especially when training to be one, praise would probably be the barest acknowledgment of your success and comforting someone is equally rare. Him having to express his love and concern in an open way is just difficult for him.
This guy somehow knew how Atreus would look like 4 years later.
This was made when the Ragnarok trailers came out
@@toast5595 oh thanks
@@gameropedia140just wondering, where did you get “4 years” from
@@themegaminds5868 true it looks more like 7 or 8 years
@@themegaminds5868 I'm assuming its because God of War came out in 2018 so its "4 years later" But, in truth God of War Ragnarok is only 3 year after the original.
be honest, this isn't your first time here
Fr
Yep
Yes
Yeah
Fr
Imagine a God of War animated series with this artstyle
Yeah...
yeah...
yeah...
Yeah...
Yeah...
I love how it transitions from barking orders to _cheering him on._
Kratos is dad goals.
Nothing like seeing yours stand on their own.
Atreus is more savage in this than he is in the actual games.
Right?! He sometimes he talks back! And another time he shot him, you only do that if you have a death wish
You shere man helps me out a lot
Fala isso pros elfos negros no God of war 2018 kk
Very true
Thats because we did not see when Kratos was in the light
can we just appreciate kratos for doing everything to change himself despite what he has done, will do, and still hold back his nature to preserve Faye's wish for the future of him and her son? the willpower of kratos is unwavering and it is very inspiring to see a man so low being the best he can for a future that doesnt involve himself.
For a Spartan, failure is never an option, no matter the mission.
Kratos is a literal Male Icon... His past transgressions were born from a natural masculine desire for strength, then revenge... He tried so many times to live peacefully but he's never left alone... Nothing low or holding back... Just targeted rage and wisdom gained from decades of fighting, betrayal and loss.... He knows what his son is capable of and could become if taken down the wrong path like he was so he wants to provide a trained mindset upon Atreus
i love that undertone ofthe series despite are ignorant rage filled youth we get older to realize none of that was worth it and realize what really is
@@arshellnut27300
😊
"I'm proud of you, boy."
- Kratos, one day.
-"I'm useful."
Atreus, one day.
@@papyrusse. seems impossible
@@surice8928 yeah I know but we Can Dream.
Maybe in gow Ragnarok :-)
@@surice8928 we both have an undertale pp, wow, bro !
Maybe he'll also stop talking every TWO SECONDS, but i think i'm asking too much lol
I love the way the meaning "Come here Boy, Stay there Boy, Sit down Boy, Stand up Boy" changes from a father trying to keep his distracted boy in check to actual lessons on how to fight via the animation. And then they change to "Get them Boy, Dead them Boy, Smash them Boy, Slay them Boy", essentially changing from Learning to Experienced.
Kratos probably sees his son as being able to surpass him his Atraus would only just learn discipline.
@@Bluesonofman he literally said this
@@Bluesonofman
Boy: I might even surpass you one day
Kratos: if not, I failed
No shit sherlock
@@danielvenancioduartecarval242isn’t that an unrealistic expectation? I mean, there’s no way ‘Boy’ is surpassing Kratos, Spartan training is nothing compared to what boy had been through.
2:12 These lines hit me so hard I grew a beard and a giant axe just SPAWNED on my hand.
the axe was givin to kratos by faye aka his wife
First time listening to the song and I just have to say...Why do I have a talking head hanging from my waist and the need to call everyone "BOI"??
Dang
Someone help me i just finished listening and this shirtless dude is trying to fight me claiming he can't feel anything
bro help i listened to this and some winged chick tryin to kill me 😭
Perfectly summarized how atreus slowly gets more serious and skilled.
I think my favorite line is;
"Sins of the father
Sins of the son;
He can't know what I've done."
As that was one of the major plot points of the game, 10/10
2:00
Yeah it's the best
Stupidest cycle be better do better and every time your feet mess up you get up someone never heed lessons lose tempers but if they bring extreme pressure use weapons
That followed by
"I'm running from the man I was
and the one he's becoming"
Idk why but that hit me HARD
Me who played god of war 1 2 and 3: I felt that
I love how this reflects the game. Kratos may be the singer/the player character, but the song and game are both about Atreus' growth more than Kratos' god slaying
word
Word
The title is literally boy
Word
I disagree, maybe the next game will focus more on boy's growth, but the last one was all about Kratos' growth, learning to be a dad. His growth is shown in detail over a long game, atreus' character changes just kind of happen without any real insight for the player and arguably without any real set up
I'd kill to have an animated series animated in this style. I don't know why but seeing Kratos in this style is so god damn cool.
I see whatcha did there
Bro whoever animated this is a goat and who ever wrote the lyrics is goated too
Shao dao
I love how this video shows Atreus going from needing help from Kratos constantly to Atreus being able to do almost as much damage as his dad.
And in gowr is actually like this!
@@Uta_193 no cap 💯
Kratos holding back 🌝🌝🌝
gowr is fire
Atreus: Maybe one day I’ll be even stronger then you.
Kratos: And if you are not, then I have failed.
This was fun to work on! Thank you for having me. I hope everyone enjoys it.
Animation man
A legend within the animation community who's inspired thousands through his work.
It's a honour and pleasure seeing you sir. And you and the team did an amazing job on this.
jeegabie
bro thaught you died
@@rengokusan8059 he didn’t
0:56 love this part ❤
you see the past... you are right
1:19
Can we appreciate that this guy managed to make a fire song then captured almost everything that happened in god of war
Lesson of the day: Never make a drinking game of everytime Kratos says "Boy" in both the game & this song.
Yeah alcohol poisoning alright🥴😵💫😵
I'd be out by the end of the first chorus. 🤣
How are you alive 😂
Oh don't worry. You'd be slamming shots faster than it could get into your blood stream
It's the most sickest God Of War Rap, that you've really outdone it mashed but really i love it y'all
Cool
Come here, boy, stay there, boy
Sit down, boy, stand up, boy
Speak up, boy
Go for the throat or you won't destroy
Drop'em in the ocean they'll float like buoy
Come here, boy, stay there, boy
Sit down, boy, shoot them, boy
Go for the throat or you won't destroy
Drop'em in the ocean they'll float like
Like a frost axe how I swung back
I don't give a damn who I lunge at
Stun man quick then I hit that prick like a punch bag
Dwarf swag upgrade the drip with just one tap
Kratos
Leave men in crators
Hate the creators
Big beard longer than my patience
Vanir or Aesirs, trust they'll betray us
I just wanna keep the boy safe from the hatred
The path of vengeance
My scars remember
I can't pretend it's
Not hard to mention
I'm past repentance
The darkness sets in
The spartan has come
Like father like son
Ash to ash
From the highest peak and open up the bag
I know she found her peace and I am glad for that
I've gotta try and be some kind of actual dad
Leave my home
If he can't feel pain make him bleed and moan
Big axe in my hand make him feel like oak
Want the giants back I tell'em Fee Fy Foh
Kick a Draugr in the Midgard
Quick time
Then rip the soul out of a boulder
It's mine
So if a troll want chat
He can hold my axe in the head right through to his insides
Me and my boy want none of your nonsense
Bodies get chopped up if they try cross us
Show'em what frost does
Rearrange postures
Spartan rage if you wanna see monsters
Sins of the past on my conscience
I'm fighting
With a norse on my neck and, it's tightening
" Cause Magni and Modi
Baldur and Thor
All want piece of the God of War
Come here, boy, stay there, boy
Sit down, boy, stand up, boy
Speak up, boy
Go for the throat or you won't destroy
Drop'em in the ocean they'll float like buoy
Come here boy, stay there, boy
Sit down boy, shoot them, boy
Go for the throat or you won't destroy
Drop'em in the ocean they'll float like
Roll the die and it's snake eyes
I Tyr temples apart and I shake lives
Better take five
On the lake nine of the realms congregate
Within a great light
Let'em know that play time's over
I'm wiser and older
Tried getting closure from hatred growing
Like an ulcer
Sins of the father
Sins of the son
But he can't know the things that I've done
So I running from the man that I was and the one he's becoming
The gods can be spiteful selfish and cunning
They think I'm a rival a beast that has nothing to lose
But they're stuck in the stupidest cycle
Be better, do better
And even if your feet mess up
You get up
Some will never heed lessons, lose tempers
But if they bring extreme pressure, use weapons
Uh
Talon Bow let arrows go
Inthe shallow snow
Swing blades full of Chaos
A cruel machination straight from the Deus
Slay dragons with an axe and Atreus
Move it
Don't make me get Runic
Tear wings off of Valkyries too quick
Stay Loki, don't involve me or
Get burned by the son of the God of War
Get them, boy, dead them, boy
Smash them, boy, slay them, boy
Show them the bow and they won't enjoy
Drop'em in the ocean they'll float like buoy
Smash them, boy, grab them, boy
Slash them, boy, slay them, boy
Show them the bow and they won't enjoy
Drop'em in the ocean they'll float like buoy
Get them, boy, dead them, boy
Smash them, boy, slay them, boy
Show them the bow and they won't enjoy
Drop'em in the ocean they'll float like buoy
Smash them, boy, grab them, boy
Slash them, boy, slay them, boy
Show them the bow and they won't enjoy
Drop'em in the ocean they'll float like, boy
You copied my lyrics
Who the hell has the time for all of this.😰
Good man I don't understand why putting the lyrics in the description isn't standard
@@krispingle neither do i
Loved how badass kratos is, but if you simplify it, he's just teaching his son how to survive, which includes possibly gods ergo "for your entire life you are marked" atreus has to be badass to live in the world of god of war😎
I LOVE the subtle details in both animation and lyrics. Just brilliant.
"ME AND MY BOY WANT NONE OF YOUR NONSENSE!"
That’s my favorite lyric in this whole thing! XD I laugh everytime!
I'm enamoured with the semi-accurate historical mythological references.
"Vanir or Aesirs, trust they'll betray us" 😎
"Kick a Draugr in the Midgard" 😂
2:00 Running from the man I was and the one he’s becoming the gods can be spiteful brutal and cunning
Is my favorite part of the song
@@mobbcentral4675 Be better. Do better. And every time your feet mess up. You get up. Some will never heed lessons. Loose tempers. But if they bring extreme pressure? USE WEAPONS!!!!!!
In the end when Kratos told him why he chooses the name Atreus for him, he in a way told him what are his hopes for him
Geez that is cool.
1:06 “Oh, you’re approaching me?”
JoJo reference
"Running from the man that I was and the one he's becoming" has got to be the best line I've ever heard.
This was absolutely amazing! The lyrics and animation were amazing!!
A familiar face
Good to see you here, Kap!
this do be hyping up raganok
I'm very glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for checking it out.
Kuba! Good to see you found this masterpiece.
Hi from the PH. Can't wait for your latest stuff!
Atreus: I didn't know you could rap?
Kratos: I am the God of War boi, and you didn't think I could battle? You have much to learn.
I read this in kratos's voice. An absolute delight indeed.

My insanity become red color when watching this video
DANG HE BECAME THE GOD OF RAP TOO
Boi didn’t expect Kratos is a rap genius in his own right. XD genius of Rap, killer of enemies, destroyer of worlds.
So much character development of BOI shown in such a short time. Truly amazing
Shao dow really was the perfect person to get for this role.
Thank ya kindly!

2:37 I don't know why but for some unknown reason when kratos and BOY get in battle ready position my mind thinks like they're getting ready for a dance-off
The fact that they used this for the anniversary shows how much this slaps
As much as I heard people badmouthing our boy, I honestly think he might become more badass stronger than his dad in future. I just can feel his bloodlust even behind the screen.
He is loki
I think that's impossible tbh. The only character I can think of more badass than Kratos is Doomslayer/Doomguy. Those 2 are undoubtedly the most badass characters in fiction that I know of, Darth Vader at a solid 3rd tho
@@assassin_5656 Arthur Morgan is a good top 5/6 too
@@diobrando2445 That's definitely debatable. I agree he's up there but not sure about top 6 tbh. Fiction is fkn huge.
@@assassin_5656 yeah,but in top 20 for me
This was the best thing i've seen for a whole year.I'm so happy this exists. What an amazing song and an even more amazing cinematic. Great work. Now, I'm gonna listen to it aggain :3
Seriously, this art style is phenomenal
It kinda reminds me of the original Star Wars cartoons
1:25 MADE IN HEAVEN
Noooo i can't unsee now
Loved that Shao was able to hype up almost every great about GOW but still throws in lines that elaborates just how tragic of a character Kratos is and his personal struggles in being a good father under the stressful situation their in.
Pure, Genius.
I never knew I wanted to see Kratos rap this bad. I love it.
The rap is good
Now, looking back on this, it has me excited for the DLC that comes out tomorrow. I am happy with this though still and always much appreciation towards the people that were in this mashup it is stil phenomenal.
“Slay dragons with an axe and artreus” that flow was so good🔥🔥
Easily the best way to give us Atreus’s Zero to Hero between games
This was incredibly good, absolutely love the god of war series. Can't wait for the next one!
When he said “stuck in a cycle be better, do better.” I felt that.
This song has no business being this fire
There is only word that can describe this:
*Masterclass*
I have a better word
*boy*
I can imagine this song playing while the credits roll for Ragnarok
Thank god that it isn’t just a short but there’s a full song 😮💨
Even though this video came before Ragnarok came out (Therefore missing key things from the game's plot and characters), its aged pretty well, and pretty much sums up Kratos and his sons' growing badassery!
This has gotten me even more excited about God of War Ragnarök coming this year, this is one hell of a mash up Rap all of you did fantastic! (Edit: Thank you all for the likes on my comment I didn't expect all of that!)

P.S
BOY
This song made me discover you guys and I liked it a lot if that is worth something
This is probably my FAVORITE track by you! The progression of Atreus growing in both age and skill through the game is CLEARLY displayed through your lyrics, especially the chorus (and the scheme “Sins of the father, Sins of the son, but he can’t know the things that I’ve done! So I’m running from the man that I was and the one he’s becoming” gave me SHIVERS). But my favorite part, and one that I haven’t seen anyone else mention, is at 1:25 when the sun and moon are circling in the sky - so does your voice. That wraparound in the headphones had me standing in Atreus’ shoes with you (Kratos) walking circles around me as I’m training just going BOY!
And yes, I know Shao’s saying “War” in that section. It doesn’t change the visual it creates in my head though
“Son of the God of War” would be an awesome next game of the series
2:11 is so good
This was awesome and horrifying. It shows the truth of their world, become the violence or die (it's kind of a necessary paradigm for that genre of game) but also hangs a lantern on multigenerational hatred and inherited sin. Brilliantly done Mashed!
Absolutely insane. The little animation transitions when they start to get serious were my favorite but kudos all around
This really hits different when u get to the end of ragnorok
I love his new title as said in the description : he is the GOW : the god of war and the newly nominated GOR : god of RAPNAROK ! XD
Someone count how much times he said boy
Pretty sure it's 36
It's over 9000!!!!!!!
Counted around 42 "boy" that was said
More than 5 sure!
I said it twice. If you're hearing more than that, get your hearing checked
man, this animation looks cool as always.
i liked this rap and background music.
I also like how clear and fast the plot is presented in such a time
definitely gonna add to favorites on spotify
Fun fact in God of war when you kill Balder brings fimble winter because he was preventing it and wen kratos kills him it brang fimble winter
I love how much more intimidating Kratos is with pure white eyes
1:35 8 days later he now looks like he's 3 years older
Nah He's just Seen stuff
