b"Sing 2 is a 2021 animated jukebox musical comedy from animation studio Illumination. It was directed by Garth Jennings, and featuring an ensemble cast, including Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Scarlett Johansson, Taron Egerton, Bono, and various others. A sequel to the original 2016 film Sing, the plot (Such as it was) featured a cast of anthromorphic animal characters attempting to put together a show in the fictional entertainment capital of the world, Redshore City. The film itself released to mixed reviews from critics, but was a box office success, which would go on to become the highest grossing animated film of 2021.

On a new episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott welcome the return of past guest Patrick S. Barry for a screening of Sing 2, while once again neglecting to view the original. Join them for a general sense of confusion and dread over the anthomorph-inhabited world Illumination created, wonder and befuddlement over Bono's barely present American accent, and for Scott to become thoroughly broken over the course of the movie.
