Diddy’s Super Bowl commercial for UberEats ended up being one of the funniest this year. Moreover, the skit is based on a group of executives trying to get Diddy to make a new song for the Uber One membership. “Diddy don’t do jingles,” his threatening bodyguard tells them, as he sits in silence in his office. However, the commercial then goes into the studio, where Combs and his entourage listen to prospective hitmakers. In fact, they’re all bonafide hitmakers, as you’re bound to recognize all these tracks. Even if they fit slightly into the “one-hit wonder” category, these melodies are more far-reaching than some entire discographies.
Still, it was pretty funny seeing the Bad Boy chief give his take on these “auditions.” Starting things off was singer-turned-minister Montrell Jordan, who rapped a UberEats-centric version of his 1995 hit “This Is How We Do It.” Moreover, Diddy cheered on everyone in the booth- well, almost everyone, but we’ll get to that. Next up was Donna Lewis, who spun her 1996 cut “I Love You Always Forever.” Also, singer-turned-farmer Kelis sang a remixed version of her iconic track “Milkshake” from 2003. Don’t remember that one? Well, it brings all the boys to the yard, and they’re like “it’s better than yours.”
However, once Swedish duo Ylvis hit the booth with a rendition of their YouTube sensation “What Does The Fox Say?”, Diddy asked them to stop their repeated barking. Then, they retorted in Swedish, and the mogul’s right-hand man responded perfectly back. Last, but certainly not least, singer Haddaway emerged from behind Ylvis to sing his absolute smasher “What Is Love.” Overall, it was a nostalgic, brief, and sweet celebration of some of the biggest earworms of the last thirty years or so.
Meanwhile, the 53-year-old took to Twitter to share his excitement over his second Super Bowl commercial. “Proud to be starring in my second #SuperBowl commercial! Watch it tonight during the 2nd quarter!” he wrote. Also, his flame Yung Miami expressed support of her own via the app. “Papi only does HITS,” she wrote excitedly, sharing the commercial in full. Speaking of which, you can see the whole UberEats commercial from Diddy above. Of course, stay logged into HNHH for the latest on the Super Bowl and its amazing commercials.
