Arttu Wiskari and Elastinen really measure each other sometimes.
The competition for singers is so fierce The Voice of Finland in the program that it makes two star coaches use their harsh verbal weapons.
At the program’s press conference, it appears that the rapper Elastic42, and singer Arttu Wiskarin39, you will see a lot of playful squinting at times.
– Sometimes it’s true: yes, we tease each other quite a lot. We bring a lot of our own views, but at the same time we see who uses them better verbally, Wiskari tells Iltalehte.
– Last season I had a tough fight with Apulanna, and now it took completely new turns with Artu, Elastinen states.

According to Elastinen, they have an agreement between themselves that they must say if the joke offends the other. Wiskari assures that in such situations they go through them together after filming – and according to Elastinen, sometimes even in front of the camera.
Wiskari emphasizes that both enjoy joking with each other, during which there is mutual respect.
– Ela said at one point that now there is a guy who challenges her all the time, and not one who gets angry. I don’t get angry, says Wiskari.
– We are both such “clumsy guys” who are loud with their mouths. We have certainly both survived in life by always having something to say in different situations, Elastinen reflects.
– If Arttu gets a singer that I would have liked, it really saddens me. It feels good to be able to show it and tell Artu. It is the salt of this program that we also let it be seen, Elastinen says. Henri Kärkkäinen
So, should the viewer at any point be worried about your jokes or feel sorry for the other party?
– It’s up to the viewer to decide. The image of both is more at stake than health, Wiskari laughs.
– He has become such a good friend to me that it is difficult for him to offend me anymore. But every person has the right to choose what they are offended by, Elastinen concludes.
