>>> WE ARE BACK.
>>> WE ARE BACK.
IT IS COMING UP ON 8:53.
IF YOU WATCH THE HBO SERIES
"SUCCESSION" THEN MOST LIKELY
YOU’VE COME TO LOVE COUSIN GREG.
THE ONLY ONE IN THE ROY FAMILY
WITH ANY KIND OF MORAL COMPASS.
YOU KNOW WHO’S LOVING HIM TOO?
EMMY VOTERS.
>> THAT’S RIGHT.
NICOLAS BRAUN IS UP FOR HIS
FIRST EMMY FOR BEST SUPPORTING
ACTOR.
HE ALSO FOUND SOME TIME TO
RELEASE WHAT IS OFFICIALLY
BECOMING THE PANDEMIC DATING
ANTHEM OF ALL TIME.
IT’S CALLED "DO YOU HAVE THE
ANTIBODIES."
TAKE A LOOK.
♪ DO YOU HAVE THE ANTIBODIES ♪
♪ DO YOU WANT TO BE WITH ME ♪
♪ DO YOU HAVE THE ANTIBODIES ♪
♪ IF YOU DON’T YOU BETTER STAY
AWAY ♪
>> NICOLAS JOINS US.
>> YES.
>> LET’S GET TO THE EMMY IN A
MINUTE.
BUT LET’S TALK ABOUT THE MUSIC.
WAS THE GENESIS OF THIS AND THE
WHOLE IDEA IS EITHER MASK ON OR
PANTS OFF.
HOW DOES THIS START?
>> OH, MY GOD.
IT WAS CRAZY.
I WAS STAYING IN A GUEST HOUSE
IN LOS ANGELES.
I WAS STAYING WITH SOME FRIENDS,
A COUPLE.
AND, YOU KNOW, I JUST FELT --
I’M CUTTING MY OWN HEAD OFF
HERE.
HOLD ON.
YEAH.
I’M STAYING OUT THERE AND I WAS
LIKE, THEY GET TO COOK TOGETHER
AND WORK OUT TOGETHER AND DO ALL
THIS STUFF TOGETHER AND I WAS
SINGLE IN THEIR GUEST HOUSE.
I WAS LIKE I REALLY WANT TO GO
ON A DATE BUT I’M SUPPOSED TO BE
AFRAID OF EVERYBODY RIGHT NOW.
SO I WAS LIKE, OKAY.
HOW DO I DO THIS?
AND THIS CHORUS CAME INTO MY
HEAD AND IT HAD TO BE PUNK ROCK.
AND IT WAS DO YOU HAVE THE
ANTIBODIES.
DO YOU WANT TO BE WITH ME.
DO UFT THE ANTIBODIES BECAUSE IF
YOU DON’T STAY AWAY.
>> DID YOU GET A DM FROM A
RECORD LABEL SAYING COULD WE
MAKE A REAL SONG OUT OF THIS
THING?
>> YEAH.
SO A COUPLE DAYS LATER, I GOT A
DM AND THEY WERE LIKE, HEY.
YOU KNOW, I KNOW THIS IS KIND OF
FUNNY.
HE WAS LIKE I’M FROM ATLANTIC.
I KNOW THIS IS KIND OF FUNNY,
BUT I CAN’T GET YOUR BRIDGE AND
YOUR SECOND VERSE OUT OF MY
HEAD.
I CAN’T STOP SINGING THIS.
DO YOU WANT TO MAKE THE SONG?
I MEAN, IT’S INSANE.
DO I REALLY WANT TO MAKE A SONG?
AND THEN I THOUGHT, WELL, MAKE
IT REALLY GOOD AND REALLY FUN.
YOU KNOW, DONATE TO SOME
CHARITIES THROUGH IT.
I WAS LIKE, LET’S GO.
>> SO NICOLAS, YOU’VE ALSO BEEN
NOMINATED FOR AN EMMY FOR COUSIN
GREG IN "SUCCESSION."
WHEN DID YOU KNOW THAT THIS SHOW
HAD TAKEN HOLD AND WAS A HIT?
WHEN DID YOU FEEL IT OUT IN THE
STREETS?
>> OH, MAN.
IT’S HARD TO PINPOINT IT.
THERE WAS ONE POINT WHEN
SOMEBODY SENT ME A CLIP FROM
"INSIDE THE NBA" AND CHARLES
BARKLEY GOT CALLED INTO THE SHOW
AND I THINK LeBRON WAS GOING TO
THE LAKERS.
IT WAS LIKE A BIG NBA NEWS DAY
AND HE WAS LIKE, DAMN IT, GUYS,
WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME ON SUNDAY
NIGHTS?
THIS IS MY "SUCCESSION" NIGHT.
>> THERE YOU GO.
CONGRATS ON THE EMMY.
>> CONGRATS.
>> IT’S ON CHARLES BARKLEY’S
