Spotify Wrapped may not have resonated with everyone this year — and for some, it might have seemed like a discreet plea for attention — but for *Saturday Night Live* host Paul Mescal, it served as the perfect musical backdrop.

The star of *Gladiator II* embodies Myron, a character overflowing with enthusiasm to present his Spotify Wrapped playlist to his friends, believing it showcases his flawless music taste. His leading artists? Kendrick Lamar, Sabrina Carpenter, and topping the list: Satoshi Gutman (played by Bowen Yang).

Not aware of Satoshi Gutman? Obviously, you’re not in the know and desperately need a musical revival. But in case you’re curious, Gutman is a pioneering anti-instrumentalist sound maestro from Dundalk, Maryland. He even runs a podcast, which Myron proudly ranks among his favorite listens. The podcast features a memorable segment where Gutman interviews the one and only Trisha Paytas.

Absolutely legendary.
