The group was originally formed in Berkeley, California - in 2001 - but they now reside in New York City. They wrote, produced, and were featured in the "SNL Digital Shorts" on Saturday Night Live (Samberg was a cast member, Taccone and Schaffer were writers) most notably "Lazy Sunday," "Dick in a Box" featuring Justin Timberlake, "Jizz in My Pants, "I Just Had Sex" featuring Akon, and "I'm On a Boat" featuring T-Pain. In August 2007, "Hot Rod" was released, which was co-written by the Dudes (with Pam Brady) and directed by Akiva. It co-starred Andy, Jorma and fellow SNL-ers Bill Hader and Chris Parnell, among others.
On February 10, 2009 the Lonely Island's debut record "Incredibad" was released. It includes most of the SNL Digital Shorts as well as new songs featuring E-40, Julian Casablancas, Beck, Jack Black, and Norah Jones.
On their YouTube channel, The Lonely Island announced an upcoming album on October 28, 2010, which would be released in the spring of 2011. On December 18, 2010, the SNL Digital Short was the official music video of "I Just Had Sex" (featuring Akon), the first single off the album.
On January 29, 2011, the group debuted "The Creep" featuring Nicki Minaj and a cameo by filmmaker John Waters, on SNL and YouTube. On March 15, 2011, Direct Current Music reported that the album would be named Turtleneck & Chain and would be released on May 10, 2011.

2 Banditos
The Lonely Island Lyrics
Ooh, two banditos
Well howdy ma'am, we the two banditos
Up in the club wearing bright pink tuxedos
Similar to autopedos, (?)
Gotta turn that frown into more of a frown
Hunter's thinking they were Conner4Real, what's the deal?
I'm on some white boy shit man, tryna stack a mil'
Yeah, I'm also on my white boy shit, that's my birthright
Call my dick the shooting star (why?) cause it burns, right?
I fucked your first cousin with the didgeridoo
And when she came, you know it sounded like "wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow"
Yeah, you know we're two banditos
Yeah, you know we're two banditos
Yeah, you know we're two banditos
Do a little dance and I drink a little water
Man, how'd I get the money? (don't worry 'bout it)
Why they kissing on my couch? (don't worry 'bout it)
How they get so cool? (don't worry 'bout it)
You've been struck by the two banditos
What the fuck is that? (don't worry 'bout it)
Does this make me look fat? (don't worry 'bout it)
I just ate a fucking rat (don't worry 'bout it)
You've been struck by the two banditos
Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, stupid!
My name is Connor and I'm not a model citizen
I'll take a swig from this bottle that I drizzle in
Swimming in her prison, man, my interests is dwindling
And I'm hella bored too, fuck it
Banditos eat a lot of burritos
While we're fucking bald eagles
Hey, let's go back to the chorus dude (oh, okay)
Yeah, we're two cute little kittens
Yeah, we're two cute little kittens
Yeah, we're two cute little kittens
Shut the fuck up!
Thank you
We just robbed the place (don't worry 'bout it)
They just licked my face (don't worry 'bout it)
Took a shit in your food (don't worry 'bout it, rude!)
You've been struck by the two banditos
Pop this pill (don't worry 'bout it)
Is that cocaine? (don't worry 'bout it)
What is life? (don't worry 'bout it)
You've been struck by the two banditos
Wow wow wow wow mother fucker (wow)
Well howdy ma'am, we the two banditos
Up in the club wearing bright pink tuxedos
Similar to autopedos, (?)
Gotta turn that frown into more of a frown
