Chapter 1: What is the focus of part two of the Incredibad album discussion?
Hey, everybody. This is Seth. Welcome back to part two of the Incredibed episode from the Lonely Island and Seth Meyers podcast. It's weird because it's going to sound like we were literally picking it up right where last week left off because that is exactly what happened. We did it at the same time. You guys understand how this works. Enjoy.
It's the Lonely Island and Seth Meyers podcast.
So Santana DVX, explain.
Well, it starts with that it's real, and this was before everybody had a liquor brand at all.
Yes, Carlos Santana endorsed a sparkling wine, which, by the way, I had not remembered, and last night had a, was this real? Yeah. And was delighted to know it was.
It was always a limited amount of it. It wasn't like it was something people knew. I only knew because I happened just to have been in Napa for the very first time in my life and had gone to like the Moet like winery for a tasting. And there was a big standee of Carlos Santana in there and he was holding the champagne.
And back then, before everybody had their own things, that was so out of the blue and crazy. I mean, it's so different now that E-40, who is the guest that I'm sure we'll get to in a second, he has a huge line of wines. That's right. In real life. And, you know, Alizé type drinks and food, goon with the spoon.
So that's how much the world has changed since we made this in terms of like artists marketing products.
I mean, it begs the question, do you think that E-40 doing that song with us influenced his decision to go into his own spirits?

Chapter 2: What is Santana DVX and why is it significant?
So now this is a song for the motherfuckers that don't know about Santana DVX.
That's right. Also, this was a moment in time where like talking about champagne and Cristal especially was relentless in hip hop. That's right. Like Cristal was just like, oh my God, Cristal.
Yeah, the idea that we'd have our own Cristal to talk about, but ours is Santana DVX was a big joke for us. Yes. Just that alone. That's why it also is in I'm on a Boat. And is there even a third mention on the album? I can't remember.
I forget, but we were definitely... Yes, in a skit. The normal guy skit starts with you guys talking about how you're going to go to a party and drink Santana DVX.
All right.
We're relentless in our own album mention.
So the fun now is you know the tone and you have a really good beat and this observation, but then you're basically just writing rhymes about how the actual champagne is good and then details about Carlos Santana.
Yeah. That's right.
It's so fun. Very detailed details. The Don Dada.

Chapter 3: How did E-40 influence the song and the world of spirits?
That routinely happened to us because we would always record like a million versions. We'd always like double our lyrics to make them sound beefier and cooler. And then you'd get like something from E40 or Jack would come in or Julian Casablanca. And you'd get these like, like E40 was a one take. And you're like, he just knocked it out. Where you're like, okay, that's how it's done, I guess.
Real talented musicians, not fakers.
There's two interludes. There's two tracks that are marked interlude. The first is Normal Guy. Now, I do kind of want to revisit Normal Guy and do a whole episode on Yorm's Doritos ad.
Right.
Yeah, yeah. Totally. I mean, we really kind of have to. Strong agree. If we're legally allowed to. Oh, are we contractually maybe not allowed to? I think it's been enough years, right? Probably.
Contractually, we're not allowed to put it out. So no one could ever see it. But I guess they could hear parts of it.
I would just say this. Go listen to Normal Guy, the interlude.
Yeah.
And then wonder if you think he's the sort of got a pitchman vibe to you.

Chapter 4: What are the key influences behind the song 'Pimps'?
Ding dong. Normal guy in the house.
Hey, man.
Oh, it's great seeing you other normal guys. Oh, yeah.
Uh-huh.
What are you guys up to?
Uh, not much.
Hey, what are you other normal guys up to?
Seriously, nothing.
Basically, after they tested, they came to us and they were like, look, we can't air this on the Super Bowl. So can you just say that you didn't make a commercial? The competition was so great this year, you just wanted to give up your spot. We were like, no problem.

Chapter 5: What memorable lyrics and moments are in 'Santana DVX'?
Oh, Tiny Tim and it's almost Christmas. Almost Christmas. Sure is dusty here. Sure is dusty here.
He's at the old saloon still, to be clear. Yeah. He's time traveled.
We have two to go.
They are Punch You in the Jeans and Incredibad. Well, Punch You in the Jeans, I will always have a real soft spot in my heart for that because for all the ones that came out of us just saying stuff to each other as friends, was that one that you started, Andy, of just saying, I'll punch you in the jeans?
I used to say I would do it to you at SNL.
Yes. It was something he specifically did to me.
Before we knew we had a record deal or before we had beats to choose from or anything, I just would walk up to Jorm and go, I'll punch you in the jeans.
I'll punch you in the jeans. Roll up on your smooth and punch you in the jeans.
Yeah. It was like our Andrew Dunn rap from Hot Rod, the DP. Yes. It was just something he did to me.
