    Snoop Dogg actually portrayed Moses in the rap battle, hence the Gin and Juice reference.

    "I feel ashamed know knowing that "you may be gaga *clap* *clap* " was a Radio Ga Ga reference
    but I know that the instrumental for Sinatra VS Mercury is a reference to We Will Rock You, as well as "When I Rock the UK" being a reference to it as well, and maybe the "pack of rodents" line could be a text based reference
