What did you think of the rap song?

It was the first hip hop single to reach number one in the United Kingdom.

IT KICKS ASS JUST LIKE THE FLICK.

Agreed, it fits the movie and era perfectly.

Fucking love that song, but my favourite from the soundtrack is 9.95 by Spunkadelic.

Nice, never seen that video. Does that song play in the movie?

reply

It actually plays directly after Turtle Power during the end credits.

reply

Also, it is alluded to at the very end of the film after April and Casey kiss! One of the turles shouts 9.95 right before the end credits start!

reply

What does 9.95 mean?

reply

It is a rating below 10 / 10...

reply

It was really good for the time. When my friends and I heard it in the theater, we were sure it was Big Daddy Kane.

reply

Loved it as a kid. And to this day anytime I have to write turtle i hear that robotic voice in my head going "T-U-R-T-L-E POWER!!!"

reply

It's better than the Smurf Song 🤖​...what doesn't mean much.

What the fuck did I just watch lmfao

That song was several weeks #1 in our charts.
Hopefully you didn't understand the lyrics, which are even more embarrassing. 😳​

reply

I really liked it a lot, it takes me back to the early 1990's, I'm surprised it got to #13 considering it didn't get much airplay in the PNW during its chart run.
