Everyone's dressing like that now.
- Fashion was so cool in the '90s, too.
No one gave a [bleep]. We're just having a bunch
of colors and lines, and it was just fun.
- Oh, what a good feeling! I feel like I'm five again.
- Man, he got all the old school dances.
- It's super nostalgic.

"Dedicated to..." Ohh!
- "In Living Color"!
- Aww, that was nice of him. That was nice.
- It just brought me right back to the '90s.
- I would watch that show religiously.
Religiously. - It was my favorite freaking show.
- I liked that! I'm surprised that I liked it,
but I really liked it. - Cardi B, man.
Three songs in the top 10 right now.
- (FBE) So that was a new music video from Bruno Mars
called "Finesse" featuring Cardi B. - Yes!
- Oh, Cardi B! Girl!
- Bruno Mars and Cardi B, ohh, that's a power house.
- We have another video to show you in a second,
but what did you think about seeing these two artists
collab together? - That was awesome.
Honestly, their chemistry was really good.
- I don't think Cardi should be a feature
on anybody's album. Her music is not good.
- Bruno Mars, I get it. He does funky music.
He does '90s. You know, he's cool with that.
I never expected for him to do a rap song with Cardi B.
- You got those solid vocals from Bruno for the chorus,
and then you have Cardi B coming in with the sweet lines.
- It worked. I mean, it really worked.
The whole thing, her even dancing out there,
and showing some moves, it really worked.
- (FBE) So the music video pays homage to a popular
'90s sketch comedy show that they dedicated
the video to at the end. - Uh-huh, "In Living Color."
- "In Living Color." Love that show.
Jim Carrey, Tommy Davidson, the Wayans brothers, all those guys.
- (FBE) So the show was called "In Living Color"
and when the music video was released,
Bruno treated massive praise for the show,
saying that there has never been another show like it.
- That's true. - They're never gonna come back.
(chuckles) We just gotta watch the reruns
if we wanna have that fun. - (FBE) Speaking of,
we have the intro from the first season to show you.
- No way! All right!
- I knew it reminded me of a show,
I just couldn't put my finger on it.
- Get some J.Lo in here. Yes, all right!
- Ah, see, it's the exact same.
- Yeah, I remember this. My mom used to play this all the time.
- ♪ Do what you wanna do ♪ - (laughs)
(sings along) ♪ In living color ♪
- And here comes Jim Carrey.
- James Carrey?
- Whoa! That's back when Jim Carrey went by James?
- We used to just call him "the white boy."
- Oh, I used to love her and her baby voice.
- ♪ Everybody here is equally kind ♪
- ♪ In living color ♪
- ♪ What's mine is yours... ♪ - Yes, all the Wayans.
- ♪ In living color ♪ - It's the exact same set!
Holy [bleep]. - The set is almost identical!
- Oh my gosh. That's identical.
- See, where's J.Lo? Right there.
- And there goes the Fly Girls. - Everybody wanted to be a Fly Girl.
- ♪ You walk on the moon ♪ ♪ Float like a balloon ♪
- You can hear what pieces of this song
were sampled for "Finesse."
- ♪ You can do what you wanna do ♪ - Ooh, I remember that dance.
- (sings along) ♪ In living color ♪
Nice. - Yeahhhh!
- Honestly, most of the stuff
from the '90s was pretty dope, so it's hard not to love it.
- (FBE) Okay, so going back to the music video,
it was released on January 4th
and racked up almost 15 million views
in just one day. - Wow. That's something.
- (FBE) Since its release, the music video has also
been one of the most requested videos
for us to cover. - Oh, I've seen the comments.
- I should've requested it myself. - - (FBE) Not only is the video
full of '90s references and fashion, but the song itself
is heavily influenced by '90s R&B.
- Uh-huh. Yeah, I noticed that. The beat and stuff like that,
it was definitely more like the old school music.
- (FBE) So the '90s seem to be having a bit
of a comeback as of late, with '90s TV shows and films
having revivals and reboots. - Yes, like "Girl Meets World,"
"Fuller House." - (FBE) So what do you think
it was about the song and the music video
that appealed to so many so quickly? - I just think it brings
old school and new school together. - Everyone wants to reminisce
on their childhood or all the things
that they thought were great and awesome.
- You have two really popular artists of today,
and you're mixing it with the nostalgia of the '90s.
The '90s kids are kind of going into the workforce,
and it's like, no, you're not getting your summer vacation
that you used to as a kid, so everyone's kind of like,
"Oh man, I wish I was a kid again."
- When it comes to shows or the '90s in general,
it feels so much less produced. There's something much more genuine
about the '90s shows than there is about new age shows.
- I don't wanna say it was just "In Living Color,"
but it's Bruno too. Like, the way his music
and how he's always bringing back some old school stuff.
I wish I could go back to the '90s. I loved it (laughs).
You see how excited I am! - (FBE) So finally, if you were
making a new song, what '90s TV show
or film would you wanna pay homage to?
- Oh my god. If I was doing a new single, '90s...
Maybe a "Married With Children" thing.
- Besides "In Living Color"? Ah, god. "Growing Pains."
- "Living Single." There were four women
just having a ball. - Oh! Honestly, you know what show?
"Rugrats." - Growing up, I loved cartoons.
I just automatically thought of "Rugrats."
- Some "Rugrats," some "Rocket Power."
Oh, this would be bangers. "All That," damn!
"Amanda Show," let's go! - Oh my god!
If we can do a "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" homage,
that bitch would slap! It's just so funny.
I still watch reruns of it today.
