Completely unassuming character is an insane rapper

1. Dan Smith from Key and Peele's East/West Bowl
In the East vs West rap battle sketch, Dan Smith of team West (who has the most boring name by far and is the only white character) has an extended verse and spits an amazing flow. It's ripe with burns and punch lines, and features an incomparable level of intensity that comes off the heels of the dozens of other characters

2. Dean Pelton's Payday rap
In Community, Dean Pelton puts on a ridiculous outfit and starts rapping to address the delayed staff paychecks. What starts off as a comically simple tune quickly spirals into an scathing and surreal high speed rap that addresses several unexpected social issues and leaves the members in the room shocked. At the end, he is horrified by his own performance and has no idea where it came from.
