Saturday Night Live actor Andy Samberg is a true geek hero: 2007's "Dick in a Box" earned him 35 million YouTube views, an Emmy and a fling with Kirsten Dunst. Now, with the help of his Berkeley, California, hometown buddies Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, he's also a rock star. Spoofing R&B and club hits, the trio's debut CD-DVD features hits like "Lazy Sunday" and "Jizz in My Pants," plus inspired cameos from T-Pain ("I'm on a Boat") and Norah Jones ("Dreamgirl"). Some punch lines feel left over from the dial-up era (is anyone still "doing the Bartman"?), but "Like a Boss" is a Dirty South anthem that's absurd enough for Lil Wayne. Meet the new frontier of White and Nerdy.
