Last night on CBS’ The Late Late Show, David Schwimmer and host James Corden threw down in a “Drop The Mic” rap battle, and some hilarious rhymes were dropped.
Corden began with this: “Millennials, let me introduce you to this guy. His name is David – he was famous in ’95. He was on TV then. Now it’s 2016, and he has no Friends.”
Referencing Schwimmer’s new role in The People v. O.J. Simpson against him: “He was a Kardashian on TV, but that was only for pretend. You played Robert, and that was a great combo. But you were so white, you shoulda probably played the Bronco.”
Schwimmer was not intimidated, opening his salvo with this: “We all know as an actor your roles were all the same: the heavy best friend, the humorous side-kick with a belly so big you can’t find your own –.”
Along the way, the former Friends star took aim at Corden’s weight (“They know me in Japan; they know you at In & Out”), and TV pedigree (“You’re late night; I’m prime-time. You’re cola, I’m fine wine.”)
The battle looked like a draw until Rebel Wilson crashed the party with rap attacks for both Corden (“Carpool Karaoke, you think it’s your big thing. But everyone is thinking, ‘Shut up and let Adele sing.'”) and Schwimmer (“David, your career – it’s a huge mistake. It’s like Ross and Rachel; it’s ‘on a break.'”).
Some fun stuff here. You can watch the full battle royale below.
