Talk:Artists vs TMNT/Rap Meanings/@comment-64.114.239.154-20170606214024

I think Leonardo and Donatello (the turtles, not the artists) mentioning the fact that Splinter taught them not to rush to violence and Raphael and Michelangelo (also the turtles) pointing out that Splinter isn't present is a reference to the fact that the latter two are more rebellious than the former two. Something else notable is that It was Donatello (the artist) who made a refence to each word in the turtles' group name:

Immature-teenage

Mutants-mutant

Group of ninjas-ninja

Hard shell-turtles

Also, the reason why the artists' first verse is so long is because, unlike the turtles, they have never worked as a group before.
