Saturday Night Live is officially back, in a new, socially distanced kind of way. Last night (April 11), the show aired a special "At Home" episode that featured cast members filming skits from the comfort of their own homes. Pete Davidson decided to contribute two parody rap videos for his part in the show, both shot at his mom's house in Staten Island.

The first, directed by momma Davidson, shows the comedian give his best Drake impression in a violet-washed clip filmed in her basement. "This is a Drake song / I miss my ex, this is a Drake song," he sings in the chorus, donning a puffy coat that would make Champagne Papi proud.

The second skit, "Andre 2000," pokes fun of rappers who show off rolls of cash in their videos. "I'm a new young rapper on the block / About $2,000 is all I got / I put it in the video in every shot / It's $2,000, it's all I got," he raps. "But it looks good in the video / But it's only twenty hundreds, though."

Watch "Drake" and "Andre 2000" below.

Tom Hanks acted as host on the special episode, giving the opening monologue from his kitchen, and Coldplay's Chris Martin was the musical guest, covering Bob Dylan's "Shelter From The Storm" from his house.
