Thanks to Janey for the scoop!

Andy Samberg's JJ Casuals commercial (also features Dratch, Hader, and Forte):


JJ Casuals aired on...

I think basically Jack Johnson thinks Andy is hilarious in his JJ impressions (JJ has mentioned that on his site and even hosted some SNL clips there so people could see Andy's impressions of him). However, at the same time, JJ probably is thinking that this whole "Mellow Show" thing isn't the best image.

Andy followed up his JJ Casuals commercial with the Mellow Show. He did two episodes of it, which were on...
04.12.2008

Andy Samberg's Mellow Show (one of them):



Joseph Gordon-Levitt ... Jason Mraz
Dave Matthews ... Ozzy Osbourne
Bill Hader ... Dave Matthews
Andy Samberg ... Jack Johnson
Kenan Thompson ... Boyd Tinsley
Kristen Wiig ... announcer (voice)

I don't think he blames Andy. I think he sees Andy's impressions as more of a reflection of the mass market perception of Jack Johnson. And he really wants to break away from that perception. So I think thus was born JJ's idea of having a brawl music video with Andy where JJ can try to lose the stigma that he's super mellow (or at least dampen it a little).

Given the video above, Dave Matthews is also obviously a fan of Bill's impression. =^)

Enjoy!
