DNL Physics, Seconde
Epic Rap Battles of History
Albert Einstein Vs Stephen Hawking
When I apply my battle theory minds are relatively blown
So take a seat Steve
Opp, I see you brought your own
What’s with your voice?
I can’t freaking tell
You sound like WALL-E
Having sex with a Speak & Spell
I’ll school you anywhere
MIT to Oxford
All your fans will be like:
“um, that was Hawk-ward”
I’m as dope as two rappers
You better be scared
Cause that means Albert E
Equals M C squared
Hawking
You’ve got no idea what you’re messing with here boy
I got 12 inch rims on my chair, that’s how I roll y’all
You look like someone glued a mustache on a troll doll
I’ll be stretching out the rhyme, like gravity stretches time
When you try to put your little p-brane against this kind of mind
I’m the best
I’m the Snoop Dogg of Science
I’ll be dropping mad apples on your head from the shoulder of giants
Einstein
I’m a giant whose shoulders you’d have stood on, if you could stand
I’ll give you a brief history of pain with the back of my hand
You can’t destroy matter or me, for serious
Ripping holes in you bigger than the hole in your black hole theory was
Hawking
There are 10,000,000
Million, million, million, million, million, million, million, million, million, particles in the universe that we can observe
Your mama took the ugly ones and put them into one nerd
You wanna bring the heat
With the mushroom clouds you’re making
I’m about to bake raps from scratch, like Carl Sagan
And while it’s true
That my work is based on you
I’m a super computer
You’re like a TI-82 / Questions
This is referring to a famous Eintein’s theory, which one ?
What is the joke here?
What is the problem with Stephen W Hawking’s voice?
Do you know Wall-E?
“Speak and spell” is a toy with a speech synthesizer.
What are “MIT” and “Oxford”?
Do you get the wordplay?
“Squared” means “au carré” so do you get the wordplay?
“rim” = jantes
Do you understand the reference?
What does “pea” mean?
An apple which falls, does it mean something to you?
What is the reference of “shoulders of giants”?
What is the reference of “a brief history of pain”?
What is one of Hawking’s most important subjects of study?
See with the teacher.
I hope you see the reference.
Carl Sagan was a physicist who said :
“If you want to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe”
Who has a TI-82?
What is the game Hawking is playing during the battle?
Pour le professeur
Ø La semaine précédente demander aux élèves de faire des recherches sur Einstein et Hawking.
Ø First listening without the video:
Who ? What ?
- What kind of document is it?
- How many different people can you hear?
- Did you guess who they are?
- Is it a serious song or not?
- What kind of music is it? What is the tone of the song?
- How many people? singers?
- Who are they?
- What are they talking about?
What did you find about these scientists?
Ø Second listening without the video:
Let’s check.
Did you get more information?
Ø Listening with the video and the subtitles.
Ø Give the questions and the script.
Add/Create/Imagine a new stanza to the song.
