Andy Samberg is Incredibad (Rolling Stone article)

Saturday Night Live's golden boy Andy Samberg will be putting out a comedy album, titled Incredibad, next February, and you can expect it to be just as raunchy as "Dick In A Box" and "Jizz In My Pants." A slew of "real" musicians will join Samberg on the album, including T-Pain, Norah Jones, Jack Black, E-40, the Strokes' frontman Julian Casablancas and Justin Timberlake.

The album is a product of the three-man team known as the Lonely Island, comprised of Samberg and fellow SNL writers Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer.

"We definitely wanted it to be a classic comedy album, but also one you put on more than once," Samberg said in an interview with MTV News. "We've gone out of our way to make it musically pleasing. We started on a few songs that were not funny enough, for us, but they sounded pretty cool. And the bottom line for the project was, 'Is it going to be funny first and music second?' I think it's 95 percent music, and we hope people would throw it on and bump it."

The trio has been posting songs and videos on their website for years, but have always wanted to put out a full album. Incredibad will rely heavily on hip-hop beats, recruiting Sly & Robbie, Jurassic 5's DJ Nu-Mark and underground producer DJ J-Zone to help them create rhythms. Jorma helped create some of the beats as well.

The first single "Jizz In My Pants," has become a viral hit since it debuted on SNL last week and features cameos from Timberlake (as a store janitor), the Sopranos' Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Molly Sims.

Andy Samberg's Incredibad - The Secret Formula to their hit songs

See bold below for Andy stuff.

===================



Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer, aka the comedic trio known as the Lonely Island, aren’t shy about flaunting their indie rock bonafides. Samberg has done a wicked Conor Oberst impression on his day (night?) job, Saturday Night Live, and Taccone has a small library of YouTube clips of him dancing in his underwear in front of SNL guests like Arcade Fire and the Arctic Monkeys.

Their debut album Incredibad, due on February 10 via Universal/Republic, features musical guests like Norah Jones, T-Pain, and Strokes singer Julian Casablances, and note-perfect genre parodies of new wave dance music and thugged-out hip-hop. Samberg says we shouldn't expect any Animal Collective parodies from the group any time soon though, as the guys would "have to learn to sing that good." Then again, that might not be too great an obstacle, as Samberg quickly added that they’ve been considering a Fleet Foxes parody that would highlight "how bad we are at harmonizing."

Most of the song parodies aren't meant to jab at specific genres or artists, but rather to highlight absurd non-sequiter lyrics, top-notch tunes and often tragically deluded narrators. Schaffer says that part of the joke in the party anthem, "Just Two Guyz," is the awkwardness of the rappers, while Samberg's titular white Rastafarian, "Ras Trent," is meant to be as terrible a toaster as possible.

The group's music videos, like the recent smash, "Jizz In My Pants," and the classic, "Lazy Sunday," have garnered a devoted YouTube following (and are included with Incredibad). Though they're aware of the need to balance their own interests with what might be palatable to a wider audience, they're not afraid to throw their followers a curve ball. Taccone jokes that he expects fans of "Jizz" to hate the awkward nerd rap of "We Like Sportz." Ultimately, Schaffer says, the group’s main priority is not what will play on Hulu, but whether a joke amuses them: "If we like something, we'll do it."

Andy Samberg - Is "On a Boat" (SNL Digital Short)

5/26/09 Update: Added NBC Uncensored video.
=============================

Digital Short: I'm On A Boat

T-Pain, Andy and Akiva head out on the open seas. Jorma gets left behind.



I'm on a boat!!! I knew the boys had another one to three hit music videos in them for their CD release, and here's one...

Awesome! It's cool to see The Lonely Island mix these videos up! For example, Andy and Jorma were the leads in J--- in My Pants, Jorma and Kiv were the leads in We Like Sportz, and Andy and Kiv are the leads in I'm On A Boat. It's also cool that the third guy still makes an appearance in all of them.

So we have some pretty silly gags here. Stuff like Jorma getting harassed by the other guys, T-Pain saying that he never thought he'd be on a boat, the mermaid, and oh so much more.

Definitely a great piece both musically and comedically.

What did you think?
