Rap Battle #4
Vinyl was calmly sleeping in her room. She was dreaming of a full dance floor at one of her raves. And, for some reason, a group of butterflies flitting over the crowd. In her dream, she found herself being drawn closer and closer to a red stallion ...
She was abruptly pulled back into the waking world by a loud slam. She sat up groggily, opening her eyes to find herself staring into the purple eyes of her best friend. Scratch grinned widely, reaching over to her bedside table to grab her glasses. "Hey, roomie. What's up?"
She jumped, surprised when the earth pony swiped her shades. Confused, she looked up at her friend's face, which was currently contorted into a look of rage.
" ... you ... destroyed ... my cello! AGAIN!" She was seething as she ground Vinyl's glasses between her hooves. "That's the fifth one this month!"
Vinyl was horrified. Her one-of-a-kind shades were on the verge of being shattered! "Calm down, Octy. And hand over the shades. Carefully."
"I HATE THAT NICKNAME!" Octavia chucked the frames at Vinyl's head. "It makes me sound like some kind of fish!"
Vinyl caught her glasses with her magic before that last sentence sank in. She quickly found herself daydreaming about an octavipus. She shook her head to clear it of that image before responding. "Look. It was an accident."
"Really!" She pulled a cover off the lumpy shape next to her, revealing a pile of wood that could've been mistaken as charcoal, had it not been for the strings poking out of it. "You break it apart and set it on fire, then have the gall to say it was an accident!"
Vinyl rubbed the sides of her head, currently reeling from the consequences of party rocking last night. All of this yelling was just making her migraine worse. She gave her roommate a small, weak smile, embarrassed. " ... what can I say? It was one crazy night ... "
"THAT'S IT!" Octavia stomped the floor with a hoof, scowling. "I want one of those duels you've started doing!"
The white unicorn stared at her with a blank expression for ten seconds. "You want a rap battle?"
The grey mare put a hoof on her chin, momentarily ponderous. " ... so that's what they're called ... " She broke from her train of thought, determined. "Yes. I do. If I win, you stop hosting those ... raves, or whatever it is you call them. If you win ... I promise to come to your 'gigs'. Do we have a deal?"
She rolled her eyes, groaning in annoyance. "Even if I wanted to do this, I can't. Who would DJ for us?"
"Pinkie?"
"No." Vinyl frowned. "The last time I let her near my table, I found frosting under the records. I don't want her touching my precious turntables."
"Well find somepony you trust to do it. Otherwise ... " She glanced around the room, searching for something. Her eyes fell on a collection of records in the corner. She picked one up, a dead-serious look on her face. " ... I sell this."
Vinyl's jaw dropped, staring at the winged circle logo on the front of the cover. "Not my Cloudsmith album! It's the last one ever!"
"Then find somepony to DJ our rap battle!" She turned and left, the fragile disc held firmly in her teeth.
After a day of searching, considering and narrowing down choices, Vinyl showed up at the town square. Octavia was already there, reading a book of rhymes, and, behind her, stood her stand-in DJ, looking at the turntables in slight confusion.
She walked up to the yellow pegasus, smiling kindly. "You sure you can handle this job?"
She looked up at Vinyl, smiling softly. " ... I think so ... um ... I'd like an explanation ... if it's not too much to ask, I mean ... "
Vinyl nodded, explaining how the tables worked and what she was supposed to do.
She nodded, practicing for a few moments. "I think I have it ... oh ... and I'll be sure not to damage it ... "
Vinyl grinned, patting a hoof on the shy pony's back. "Thanks, 'Shy. I appreciate it!" She grabbed the microphones and handed one to Octavia.
Fluttershy put on the headset, watching as her unicorn friend turned the volume up to compensate for her quiet voice. She cleared her throat and, starting the music, turned the mike's mute off.
EPIC RAP BATTLES OF MLP!
VS.
BEGIN!
... UM ... I MEAN ... IF YOU WANT TO ...
You have the gall to take your name from records
When you dishonor their class with your constant discord.
True artists can create their own musical repertoire.
You got famous by using the songs of real stars!
You keep everypony up with your stupid Sweet Emotion.
I'm sick of you, your noise and your inane inventions!
Stringed instruments are the soul of your precious tunes.
My brand of classy rhymes will bring your doom!
I suppose that's an acceptable first attempt, Octy.
Though it pales against the mad skills of DJ P0N-3!
You think you're great since you can pluck strings to make sound?
I'll take your cello Bitback and Burn It to the Ground!
I guess your music could be worth a few bits -
If I bound it to Styx and gave it a little Kiss.
I'll take you to the mountain with the power of rock,
Then use my dubstep dishwasher to clean your clock!
I'll seal your stupid flank into the Mountain King's hall,
Then sing an Ode to Joy as your fan's numbers fall.
You're high if you think that you can beat me, hun.
I'll blow you away like I'm your bass cannon!
You think it's my career on which the sun is setting?
Don't forget who the princess asked to play at the wedding.
Your music's in its twilight. My epic wubs are all the rage!
So just turn yourself around and get the hoof off my stage.
WHO WON? WHO'S NEXT? YOU DECIDE!
... UM ... IF IT'S NOT A PROBLEM, OF COURSE...
EPIC RAP BATTLES OF MLP!
Okay, the next battle is finally out! It's been ready for about three days, but I had to finish the Aftermaths before I could post it.
If Octavia's rap seemed off, it's because this is her first time rapping. 
Just saying.
The voting will end when the next battle is decided upon (which will probably be about a day or so) and completed! So, probably about a week or so, total.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy!
Enigma out.~

Nice.....
Wow am I really first?
I say miss Scratch won.
I feel bad for Octavia, but I'm gonna go with Vinyl. Octy did ok on her first try, but it's like having a person open a game and play it fresh out t he box, just to go up against one of the higher ranks. Skill and knowledge are paramount in these, and there can be, unfortunately, no exceptions for the listener. However, if Octavia continues to work on it, I'm pretty sure she can come back with something truly epic.
Vinyl Scratch +1
Vinyl won. Enough said.
I'd say Vinyl won.
Vinyl all the way
I'm going with Tavi on this one.
And as for who is next, I think it would be interesting to get the CMC vs Diamond Tiara and Silverspoon.
Octy for the LOTR reference
DJ-Pon3 for me. Suggestion for next one: Snips and Snails tag-team vs. Gilda?
Vinyl Scratch
Vinyl Scratch.
I stand for Octavia. it kinda reminded me of the Beethoven Vs Beiber, except Vinyl was good.
Octavia, I'll never step down. you won this, and i don't care what anyone else says.
Classiness always wins
Vinyl,
"So just turn yourself around and get the hoof off my stage."
Last pwn. Also,
"Then use my dubstep dishwasher to clean your clock!"
Heheheh. I might have read "clock" a little differently the first time...
Ido belive Vinyl won that one.
Vinyl Scratch won that one
Hm... I'm going to have to give it to Vinyl Scratch on this one...
Octavia gave it a really good go, though! Ya done good, kid... Ya done~ good...
vinyl all the way.
i suggest that the next one be Celestia vs. discord, battle of the immortals. or Luna vs. Nightmare moon, battle of the bipolar disorder.
Vinyl, no question.
But Octy gets props for referencing the bass cannon.
Vinyl won, probably only due to more experience, but she won nonetheless.
I vote Octavipus. Unfortunately, looking at other votes, Vinyl will win.
Got to give props to Octy, but Vinyl won this one, enough said
Octy
Who wants to have a rap battle
684696
umm..... Not to burst your bubble, but there is an old song called "Hall of the Mountain King" It's a piece of classical music. Also, Vinyl totally won this.
I vote for Octy. For a first time she did really well. And I'm just a sucker for string instruments.
Classical beats dubstep for me, Octavia gets my vote.
Do one for the CMC vs Diamond Tiara and Silverspoon or Derpy and Doctor Whooves :D
Scratch. The dubstep dishwasher. 'Nuff said...
Although Octavia did good for a first attempt, I gotta go with Vinyl. For who's next.... Celestia vs. Discord?
684834 What, in the comments?
I'd say Octavia won.
Stop deleting my comments
Rap battle anyone?
684973 sure?
Vinyl won for sure
I gotta say Octy on this one
props for Vinyl for being a all around boss at every thing
I have to go with Vinyl, as much to my dismay. Forgive me Octy!
Fluttershy's the DJ? I see where this is going...
"So, who won 'Shy?"
"Oh, ummmm..... well, I know you take pride in your career Vinyl, but Octavia looked like she wanted to win so badly and....
*several hours later...*
"...And I think Octavia shouldn't be shunned for trying something new, but on the other hoof-"
"JUST GET TO THE POINT!!!!"
"It'satieok?IknowIshoudlistentothefansbutIdon'twannahurtanpony'sfeelingsandpleasedon'tbemad!"
Octavia.
She has more class.
Vinyl won,
Octy for me
Vinyl won for sure cant stop those RAVES
684620
Ooh, so close.
>>enigmaMystere
Octavia won because... *wait for it* ...you can't beat the classics! *rimshot*
DJ P0N-3
Tavi gave it a good first go, but it was Vinyl all the way, stiff contest but still a decisive victory for DJ PON-3.

But, yes, vynil scratch
DOCTOR WHOOVES
VS.
DERPY WHOOVES
BEGIN
Derpy: Muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin muffin
Doctor: umm... What?
I'm gonna have to say Octavia won, but they we're both pretty close.
By teh way, I was wondering if maybe you could recommend a song we could listen to for the rap battles. It was more my fault, but I couldn't find a nice beat to go by for this round.
Vinyl, all the way. Can the next one be Hoity Toity VS Big Mac?
Draw.
