Key & Peele: Rap Battle Hype-Man
OK...so this one has a little history behind it...It started off 9 months ago with a Montage of the Worst Hypeman in a Rap Battle. The role of the "hype man" in rap music is a backup rapper and or singer who supports the primary rapper with exclamations and interjections, and attempts to increase the audience's excitement with call-and-response chants, etc.
So, when this montage came out about the worst hypeman in a rap battle came out, one guy on Reddit said ""this looks like it could be a Key and Peele skit".
9 months later, Key and Peele finally got around to making it into a skit Key & Peele: Rap Battle Hype Man. Hilarious. And the funny thing is, they didn't really have to exaggerate it that much.
