Paul Mescals SNL Spotify Wrapped is better than yours
Spotify Wrapped might have been a bit of a letdown this year — and maybe even a cry for help for some — but for Saturday Night Live host Paul Mescal, it served as the perfect musical backdrop.
The Gladiator II star takes on the role of Myron, a guy who can’t wait to share his Spotify Wrapped with friends, convinced it’s a flawless reflection of his impeccable taste. His top artists? Kendrick Lamar, Sabrina Carpenter, and reigning supreme at number one: Satoshi Gutman (played by Bowen Yang).
Don’t know who that is? Well, you’re clearly uncultured and in need of an immediate music intervention. But if you must know, Gutman is an anti-instrumentalist sound guru hailing from Dundalk, Maryland. He even has a podcast, which Myron happens to be a top listener to, complete with a clip of Gutman interviewing none other than Trisha Paytas.
Iconic stuff.
