Viral comedians and Smosh co-founders, Anthony Padilla and Ian Hecox, released their first music video since their historic 2023 reunion.

The new single, titled “Submissive and Breedable,” was produced by grammy nominated producer Y2K (Doja Cat, Yung Gravy) and features rapper bbno$, takes a hilarious approach to Padilla and Hecox’s signature comedic stylings.

The music video features Padilla, Hecox and bbno$ in different degrees of submissions; while being spanked, tossed around and tied up.

While Smosh has continued making music with viral songs such as “Girls Are Gross” and “I’m Really Not Sorry”, “Submissive and Breedable” marks Smosh’s first original single since their historic reunion in 2023, which found the duo reuniting as majority owners of Smosh, the multi-million dollar company they co-founded in 2005.

“The idea for S&B all started as an inside joke,” said Anthony Padilla and Ian Hecox, about the new single.

“We already knew we wanted to step back into making music, so once we got the idea, the stars truly aligned from there – especially once bbno$ and Y2K came aboard. We’re incredibly grateful to be working with such talented artists, and to continue delivering our fans the comedy we love in even more creative ways.”
