The Lonely Island trio is BACK with another fire video.
Andy Samberg and Akiva Schaffer star as former Oakland A’s sluggers Mark McGuire and Jose Canseco (AKA the ‘Bash Brothers) in a 27-minute Netflix special that’s being tabbed as a ‘visual poem’. 'The Unauthorized Bash Brothers Experience' is directed by Schaffer and Mika Diva and explores what would have happened if the baseball stars created a rap album in 1988. McGuire and Conseco earned the nickname for bashing their forearms together after smacking a dinger but as the story goes, they were both later popped for performance-enhancing drugs.
Here’s a little taste:
A ton of stars make a guest appearance including Jenny Slate, Hannah Simone, Jim O’Heir, Maya Rudolph and Sterling K Brown. If you didn’t think the short was enough, you can actually listen to the entire album across all streaming services.
Lonely Island will set out on its first tour this summer beginning on June 15h at Bonnaroo. You can probably count on them performing some of the new hits, and maybe even hitting the stage in a couple of Athletics jerseys.
