Like Justin Timberlake, Akon and T-Pain before him, Compton’s young champion has teamed up with pop pastichers The Lonely Island. 

This weekend, Lamar stopped by the Saturday Night Live studios with a full band in tow, performing ace renditions of ‘Swimming Pools (Drank)’ and ‘Poetic Justice’ . His most striking appearance of the weekend, however, was a surprise cameo on the new track from SNL’s resident comedy band The Lonely Island. ‘YOLO’ is an ode to living cautiously, and features a memorable verse from Lamar in the guise of a staid financial advisor. Sample lyric? “Get some real estate/How much?/4.2%”.

The Lonely Island’s follow-up to last year’s Turtleneck And Chain is due this year.
