Freshy Kanal is a German YouTuber and music producer known primarily for his rap battles pinning various characters and pop figures against each other. His first song to break a million views, “Monika vs. Harley Quinn,” boosted the followings for him and many of the people involved. “Squid Game vs. MrBeast” was his first to surpass ten million views, which is due to the MrBeast meme that started in late 2022.

Freshy Kanal is a big fan of Epic Rap Battles of History, who are known for pioneering rap battles between pop figures on YouTube. He also likes music from various genres, including rap, orchestral music, and songs from musicals. Freshy’s earliest videos are live recordings of an ERB concert in Amsterdam, but didn’t upload his first rap battle, “Freddy Fazbear vs Mr. Bear”, until 2017. His third rap battle, “Angry Birds vs Best Fiends” has gained over 100K views, and most likely the success of this battle spurred Freshy to create more.
