WhenWill FerrellandJohn C. Reilly’s characters in the 2008Adam McKaycomedyStep Brotherstook the stage to perform the rap song “Boats and Hoes,” no one could have predicted where it would take them. In the movie, it helps spawn a business for their group Prestige Worldwide and now, in real life, it might do the same. McKay revealed on hisTwitter pagethat the duo were working on a real life rap album.
Are we currently working on a Step Bros rap album? Yup.
Then, in case anyone thought theAnchormanandOther Guysdirector was joking, hetweeted againwith an open invitation to rapper/actorMos Def.
I wasn’t kidding about Step Bros rap album. And we just found out we have a crazy big time producer. Mos Def, you up for a guest flow?
See the song that inspired this album, Ferrell and Reilly’s latest musical opus and read more after the jump.
First, here’s the “Boats and Hoes” music video that surely sums up the tone for the upcoming album and could possibly be the first single.
And for anyone who might think that was the BFF’s only musical collaboration, maybe they missed this recent Christmas video.
Ferrell and Reilly first teamed up as the team of Shake and Bake in another McKay film,Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. BesidesStep Brothersand their numerous online video team ups, they’ve also both appeared onTim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job, though never together.
It’s obvious that both Ferrell and Reilly, along with the help of McKay, can write and create funny stuff, plus their chemistry is totally undeniable. All you have to do is watch anytime the two tall comedians areon screen togetherto see that. But will that chemistry come across in MP3 form? We’ll have to wait and see.
