Especially the part with "stupid fucking bastard. You didn't get very far". Sounds sooooo much how Bateman thinks in the novel when he suddenly gets angry or mean, it sounded like it was ripped straight from the novel
I love that the bullet seems to make the furnace explode, which is a reference to when Bateman made a Police Car explode after shooting it, much to his confusion.
I think the voice actor for Patrick Bateman did an amazing job. The monotone tone and small little things in his voice (like the facial routine line) really sounded like the OG Patrick. I also liked the actor too. The part where he started getting angry but cut it off with a forced smile was pretty neat.
So as a fan of the American Psycho film I do have to note how great the "either way you'll end up with your fuckin' face in newspapers" line is, referring to: A. newspaper stageshow reviews B. News stories on serial killers C. newspaper obituaries D. the bit where Bateman lays newspapers down on his floor and kills Paul Allen with an axe full disclosure I've not seen Sweeney Todd (the musical or the film) or read the American Psycho novel so chances are there's even more layers to the line I'm missing
"I hope your second verse features you as much as your sequel does" "Just a husk of a fraud who lost his child, wife, and life" this battle went fucking hard
"You and my razor are the same in effect, except mine is sharper when it's a pain in the neck" "That's you're wife you just severed and carved cause you're a horrible barber, till death do us part" Yes it went hard xD
I don’t think there will ever be a better hypeman than Mrs. Lovett. When Sweeney started to fall apart at the realization of Lucy’s death, she immediately began picking up the slack and laid down some of the most ruthless bars I’ve ever heard. And then she sacrificed herself to bring Sweeney back on his feet. Phenomenal.
Damn, didn’t expect to see Stupendium dubbing on the mic, and using lovette as sweeny’s partner was something I wasn’t expecting, and the infighting at the end of his verse was well put together!
George did such a good job getting the mannerisms of Bateman perfectly. Honestly i’d love to see him be used as homelander , if freshy ever uses him of course
Oh my god! A rap battle in the 21st century. It even has themes of battling and raps. How profoundly unique And look at the subtle all white casti- Nah fr this was amazing. Good Job! 👍🏽
In the album, hearing Bateman describing the Sweeney Todd book like he does the dude’s business card I felt like it should have been in the beginning of the battle (since that line is in the beginning of the movie) but seeing the battle I now get that it’s a great transition into the crazy Bateman part
I love how Sweeney Todd takes a moment from the rap battle to just flat out *murder* Mrs. Lovett after realizing that she knew Lucy was alive, but didn't tell him, leading to him slicing open Lucy's neck since he thought it was some random person. All because she didn't want him to go back to Lucy, and she thought she could get away with admitting it after Lucy was dead.
A great way to start part 6. Gotta say I love the instrumental being more sinister on the second verse, his monotone, stiff, yet effective rapping turning into a more angry one.
I just realized Sweeney’s second verse features him mentioning Patrick’s lawyer, and Patrick’s second verse references the call he makes to his lawyer in American Psycho
As someone who had a huge crush on early-2000’s Christian Bale, the guy you got to play Bateman is one of the best rap battle castings ever. Idk if it’s just the acting, camer angles or just his face (combination of all 3 most likely), but that looks EXACTLY like him.
And here I thought listening to the audio so many times would ruin the experience of watching the actual battle. This was way better than I thought it would be.
That was fast. The visuals here are on par with ERB, and now that it's happened, I can say it took long enough. An amazing battle, that's profoundly unique. I'm not just saying that for the reference, either, this really feels like something of its own, and it's really, really good.
the first verse starting with the cadence and rhyme scheme of 'no place like london' ... the way sweeney holds up his blade at the end of the first verse just like when he says "at last ... my arm is complete again"!!! as a sweeney todd and american psycho fan, this is the greatest thing to ever happen to me
This was a great way to begin Part 6! Definitely loved the visuals and how there was a story based on both movies. Gonna give the win to Bateman, his lines stung harder.
I love that they got a reference to the American Psycho stage play in there, with the "Let the stage see who's grater" line, and how when he says that you can see the blood splattering on glass in front of the camera, which is how they managed to use spraying blood on stage without hitting the audience during it's brief run in NewYork.
1:30 I’ve never noticed this after a rewatch but sweeny todd saying look what have i done very quickly is a really nice attention to detail! Great stuff as always Freshly Kanal!
also just realized he wrote the wes anderson edgar wright battle in addition to this one which makes a lot of sense he evidently is quite the cinephile
This was a great banger to start off 2023 with! Every part was good, but I can’t stop rewatching Bateman’s second verse in particular, it’s just so intense.
I swear to god, this is such an earworm, every time I see it in my rexommended I listen at least 5 times, it's such a banger and the characters are played beautifully. You really outdid yourselves this time Freshy Kanal, well done!
I looked for a Patrick Bateman rap battle weeks ago, just to see if someone made it. Now I am impressed, and at the same time not. XD Also, Patrick's Cosplay is awesome.
I've watched probably over a hundred rap battles from non-ERB channels, and I always find them either too boring, too long, or just plain bad. I've never seen one that I've enjoyed more than a little. But this battle is different. I'm definitely going to watch your other ones. They seem to be more special than the other channels. Mostly in the sense that everything about it is great. The verses, the beats, the matchup, the wordplay, the length. I don't mean to throw all the other rap battle channels under the bus, but this is the first time I've seen one that is actually stacking up to ERB. Great job! Edit: Just watched 4 more. Your channel is a real gem!
Freshly Kanal is to ERB what Honest Hearts is to Fallout: New Vegas. We didn’t know that we needed it, and not everyone knows about it, but it’s a very neat companion to and extension of something great.
I never really noticed the progression, but I feel like overnight, the production on these videos became incredible. With still the same heart and talent.
I will say this looked much different in my head from the audio alone (mainly during the Sweeney Todd parts) but that doesn't ruin the fact this is still an amazing battle, dare I say, profoundly unique
if only i had a nickel for every time a rap battle features someone from a series/novel with the word "psycho" in its name, and the winner is an axe wielding maniac. Id then only have two nickels, which isnt a lot, but its surprising it happened twice.
0:42 “You and my razor have the same effect, except my blade is sharp when it’s a pain in the neck” has got to be one of the of the best lines in the series.
I love how Bateman's actor has very good rhythm when calm, but when he loses it in his second verse it's not as rhythmic and you can feel how frantic and unhinged he is. (I've seen a lot of people say this, but it needs to be said multiple times)
god this was good... I wanna see more of George in body acting, he killed it. I was expecting to this be live but i was expecting it to be done more in the way of Robin vs Guy where the Body and Voice actor is the same. Though i prefer this, even though seeing a clean shavin' Lawless Marshall just feels weird.
The lip syncing in this video is phenomenal, I love it. Also, he dance that Bateman does in the movie is something I've always wanted to learn but this (1:23) just made it even stronger. How dare you.
@@thymerosemary2890 Depends. I myself have found their flows have been going down for a while now and instead of imaginative rap battles and now it's just popular pop culture characters.

Patrick Bateman's monotone voice turning into one of wild anger is just so satisfyingly thrilling.
ong
The 'do you cut your own hair?'-part was so accurate, both the facial expression and voice, it's almost unsettling
Then just the "now I've gotta return some videotapes"
this is why flecks is one of the best vas in the community, i guess you could say his voice is really ''flecksable''
Especially the part with "stupid fucking bastard. You didn't get very far". Sounds sooooo much how Bateman thinks in the novel when he suddenly gets angry or mean, it sounded like it was ripped straight from the novel
Bateman's final verse is absolutely feral, a fantastic choice to use his mental-breakdown voice for it.
Very true
ikr
Agreed
I misread Batman and from a certain point of view that's kinda true
Okay but let's hear Paul Allen's bars
You should do his bars since you play Paul Allen
Either way he's gonna end up with his f*cking face in newspapers!!

I like how the battle goes through the whole story of both movies, even Patrick killing off Todd by shooting the furnace.
I love that the bullet seems to make the furnace explode, which is a reference to when Bateman made a Police Car explode after shooting it, much to his confusion.

It was Littleflecks who did it
@@lordjr7050 thanks for the info!
like, when he says ''stupid fucking bastard'' he acts exactly like patrick bateman when he tells the girl at the club that shes going to stab her
it was "the stupendium" they have their own channel on TH-cam, they also make great songs
This battle killed it visually. I am out of words to compliment this battle at this point. Great job everyone on the Freshy Kanal team.
i am in complete agreement
Agreed!!
I don't like it or love it
I'm absolutely obsessed with it
So as a fan of the American Psycho film I do have to note how great the "either way you'll end up with your fuckin' face in newspapers" line is, referring to:

What a brilliant analysis! 👏 👏👏
(I, too, am an American Psycho fan as well.) 😁😁

The instrumental change in Bateman's second verse is godly. Much more menacing than in the original track.
