Andy Samberg & The Lonely Island Unleash Vulgar Sushi Anthem That's About To Infect NYC

New York City is often regarded as a melting pot of various cultures, particularly when it comes to its eclectic food scene. The city is famous for housing a plethora of Japanese restaurants, harboring a near-endless assortment of sushi eateries. From authentic conveyor belt joints to lavish sit-down establishments, if you crave sushi in the Big Apple, there are plenty of places to go. However, what about secret sushi restaurants only known to the city's elite?

It's a topic so heavily coveted that Andy Samberg's comedy troupe, The Lonely Island, decided to create an original song about it. Collaborating with Saturday Night Live (SNL) to create a digital short, Sushi Glory Hole is riddled with over-the-top lyrics and ridiculous performances. The group delves into the obscure world of clandestine sushi restaurants entrenched within NYC's labyrinthine streets.

Rumored to be discreetly nestled behind an unassuming entrance, such exclusive sushi restaurants have gained notoriety. Potential patrons need to be aware of their location and gain access only through an intricate social network of elite sushi aficionados.

Going above and beyond their signature brand of out-and-out hilarious, The Lonely Island skillfully juxtaposes NYC's quintessential pizza and quick-service eateries against an intricate sushi underworld. SNL alumni Samberg and renowned musical artist Justin Timberlake use elements of satire, providing an exciting dynamic within the presentation.

During their comedy piece, Sushi Glory Hole, the duo combines strong doses of dark humor with the luxurious side of clandestine sushi gluttony. They use catchy lyrics in the performance while taking a dive into their character-driven musical style. Additionally, the song features some creative anime and Hollywood action-inspired choreography.

This release marks The Lonely Island's first digital short collaboration with SNL in nearly six years. In an apparent stab at societal conformity, Lonely Island shines in Sushi Glory Hole. With a brazen approach and boundless comedic flair, Andy Samberg and the rest of the group remind audiences of their seemingly effortless style, humor and an unforgettable ability to poke fun at everyday situations and subjects.

The Saturday Night Live sketch certainly comes in handy, and an ever-growing fan base around the world will wholeheartedly enjoy Sushi Glory Hole. Although many aficionados recognize lyrics will lean heavily towards a playful tribute to NYC sushi, their witty lyrics skillfully showcase their mastery of entertaining - no matter the topic.
