Information on the Rapper
Donatello is a fictional character and one of the four protagonists of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics and all related media. In the Mirage/Image Comics, all four turtles wear red bandanas, but in other versions he wears a purple bandana. His primary/signature weapon is his effective bō staff. In all media, he is depicted as the smartest, quick-witted, and most intelligent of the four turtles. He is co-creator Peter Laird's favorite Turtle. He is named after the Renaissance artist, Donatello di Niccolò.

Trivia
- He is the fourth animal to have a rapping role, after the Easter Bunny, Cat in the Hat, and Leonardo, followed by the other Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
- When Michelangelo says, "You guys draw more dicks than New York pride," Donatello has the wrong weapon, Raphael's sai.
- During the line, "We're the T..." he is voiced by Nice Peter and not EpicLLOYD as he was before.
- This makes him the fourth rapper to be voiced by more than one person, after Nikola Tesla and his brothers, Michelangelo and Leonardo.
- Donatello, alongside with Raphael, has the least number of solo lines out of the turtles, at 3.
- Donatello is the only turtle to not make a reference to his weapon of choice during the battle.
- If you watch the farther back to Donatello in his title card, you can see the neck of Xin Wuku showing once he stops.
