Very brief snippet of Al's upcoming appearance on Epic Rap Battles of History as Sir Isaac Newton:

Whoa... Excuse my ignorance, but is this going to be a rap that Al wrote, or is he just rhyming from a script?

As far as I know, Peter and Lloyd write and pre-record demos of each battle, and then when the celebrity talent comes in, the celebrity uses the demo to help record their parts. So I don't think we're expecting to get any fresh Al lyrics on this..

Well Nicepeter, EpicLLOYD & the various writers like Mike Betette & Zach Sherwin (Einstein, Doc Brown, Sherlock Holmes, Scrooge) on their crew usually write the lyrics to the battles. But with previous guest stars Key & Peele, they were there in the planning/writing sessions for the battles they appeared in. Al might've been there during the writing or maybe not, but he did record a few weeks ago when he stopped by Maker Studios. Since they are finishing the mix of the audio with Sir Isaac Newton I'm sure that filming will happen soon so Al may be by there sometime to do that!

Yeah, I'd expect Al to be on hand in the planning stage to make sure they don't give him any lines he would think are too profane.

Al will be filming with ERB on Monday Maybe we'll get some more hints to his battle in Nicepeter's Monday Show.

Also Rick Grimes VS Walter White will be the May 5th battle so Al's may be the third since they were filming a second one not too long ago.

Just wish he would do a British accent for the character but other than that, incredibly exciting!

Al was on site recording the actual video for the upcoming rap battle today.

Here are some pics posted by Nicepeter & EpicLLOYD.

Al signed "the" apple that I'm sure he'll be using as Sir Isaac Newton some point in the battle.

Here is Al with EpicLLOYD. Now Al has his hair back & braided which leads me to believe he'll be wearing a white powdered wig over his hair to play Sir Isaac.

Most disappointing Monday Show ever, but Al does make an appearance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOvjS8CSUdg There's the wig.
