When he first became a cast member on Saturday Night Live , Andy Samberg was easy to dismiss as nothing more than the watered down love child of Adam Sandler and Jimmy Fallon. Hell, his name even sounded like "Sandler"! (We can't be the only ones who called him "Andy Sandler" during his first year, can we?) But something happened before everyone could type cast Mr. Samberg into irrelevancy: he found...

NOTE: Video is clean version but still has lots of bleeping out since every other word is a bad one. Watch at full volume. This is the latest from The Lonely Island, the SNL crew that made a music album . The song, I'm On A Boat , is about being on a boat . Which *yawn* is nothing special if you're a pirate captain like me. Screw your boat , I'm on a ship, bitches. I'm on a ship, I'm on a ship, I'm...

You can't turn on the radio without hearing the impact Auto-Tune , a software program that corrects a singer's pitch. Whether that's good or bad is up for debate , but that hasn't stopped both schools of thought from cashing in on the craze. Jay-Z pumped out his anti-ballad 'Death to Auto-Tune,' and, on the other side, T-Pain now further cements his status as 'King of Auto-Tune' with a new iPhone...

Forget about “Dick In A Box.” Screw “Jizz In My Pants.” The crew from Lonely Island have stepped their game up to new heights. On a motherfuckin’ boat. Not only did Adam Samberg and crew make a big budget visual for the lead single off their debut record, Incredibad, they actually got T-Pain on the track (and [...]

I love this guy, a love that only grows the more unapologetically corny he is willing to be; "Falsetto" is just barely not a Lonely Island production. His best songs feel like formalist exercises in which he has to write a song using only 100 words -- club/love/all/night/pony/ooooh/ooooh/ooooh/baby. His lack of charisma, paradoxically, is even more appealing; love the fact they have to do bendy camera...

FYI, The Lonely Island's debut CD "Incredibad" comes out tomorrow, and it will surely be a good indication of where creators Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone's interests lie. For example—and I had no idea—but apparently they like boats . A LOT. And special guest T-Pain likes boats, too. OH! And they like rapping, vocoders, and dropping NSFW "f-bombs" on boats. Yay, boats!

This is outstanding. Explicit lyrics and all, love it. In order to get it, you may need to see the first video, a new song produced by Andy Samberg's The Lonely Island . This is your explicit language warning. This spoof by a group called JOPA, which I hear stands for the Junior Officer Protection Association, is very well done. Big props to the folks on the USS John Paul Jones (DDG 53) for the creativity...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuvBpGVANYA While listening to Lonely Island’s Incredibad record this weekend, I stumbled across “Natalie’s Rap,” which premiered on SNL last year. Upon closer inspection, I’m almost 100 percent certain that the “Whatcha Want, Natalie,” call and response that occurs at the 35 second mark was directly lifted from Nine’s “Whatcha Want.” The video is below–you be [...]

Wow. The Grammys. Always a rip-roaring adventure. Sarcasm aside, besides the overall Beyonce and Taylor Swift lovefest this year, there were a few bona fide decent nominations. (The full list of the bazillion nominees is up at the official Grammy website .) 1. The Lonely Island & T-Pain , "I'm On A Boat" for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration This is hot on so many levels, not the least of which for the fact...
