I especially like the part of the music video where andy samburg unloads a fat turd onto the desk it is funny i wish i was there to see it because it probably smelled really bad.

Moral of the story; do cocaine and have sex in the sewer.

Hilarious Lonely Island moment
Rodrigo_Amaro11 July 2021
Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone strike back with another music video, the single "Like a Boss" where they unload lots of hysterically funny moments and inspired lyrics.

It doesn't sound much great (the music) but the lyrics and words are a machine gun to the senses and everything that's said is in the video so we don't have to keep imagining the routine of Samberg character. Here, the man is interviewed by a company representant (Seth Rogen) who wants to know how is the dude's work routine to which he replies lots of incredible and bizarre situations (like hitting on his secretary, drinking, perfoming oral sex on a stranger, etc.). You know, the usual day for a boss who doesn't get anything done at work.

Every now and then I watch this clip and I always enjoy it the same way as I've seen for the first time. With Lonely Island you can't go wrong, they deliver lots of fun and imagination with their videos and songs. By the time it's through you will be rewinding the video and watching countless times like I do or you'll get the song stuck in your head...Like a Boss! 10/10.

Cannot find a position from which I appreciate this

The title "The Lonely Island: Like a Boss" gives away the name of the performer(s) and the "song" featured in here. There's basically two key components here: the music and the comedy and I was very underwhelmed by both. From the music perspective, it is actually close to worthless sadly. Minimally catchy that's it. Maybe you need to be a big Andy Samberg fan to appreciate this effort here. It sure won't make you one By the way, this was released back in 2009 already, so it is almost 10 years old, maybe 10 or more when you read my review. It's one of the more known works by The Lonely Island and that becomes pretty quickly obvious if you see how many millions of clicks this has on Youtube. Seth Rogen fans can perhaps appreciate it too. The comedy approach is one that goes over the top the longer it goes and quickly relies on Samberg's usual approach in terms of dirty jokes about hitting on employees and performing oral acts on his own genitalia. I think you get the message. I am a huge fan of creative political incorrectness. But this is not it. It's just loud and obnoxious and in your face likes basically everything else I've seen from Samberg. Yeah, not a fan. Highly not recommended.
