In Key & Peele season 1 episode 6, entitled "Bobby McFerrin vs Michael Winslow," viewers are treated to a clash of the vocal titans as two all-time greats of making sound effects and music with their mouths go head to head in an epic battle.

The episode kicks off with Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele introducing their latest sketch - a reality show called "Can't Touch This" where contestants compete to see who can go the longest without being touched. As with all of the duo's sketches, the premise leads to hilarity as the contestants go to great lengths to avoid being touched in increasingly ludicrous ways.

Next up is a sketch called "Black Ice" where a black man walking down the street must constantly navigate the treacherous terrain of white people's unfounded fears and prejudices. The sketch skewers racial profiling in a way that is both biting and funny and serves to highlight the show's ability to tackle difficult social issues in a comedic context.

The episode then moves on to its main event - Bobby McFerrin vs Michael Winslow. The sketch plays out like a boxing match with Key and Peele providing the play-by-play commentary while McFerrin and Winslow face off in an empty ring. Both performers are at the top of their game as they showcase their impressive vocal abilities in a series of call-and-response challenges.

The sketch is a tour de force of sound effects and musical prowess as McFerrin and Winslow show off their skills with everything from animal sounds to beatboxing. The back and forth between the two performers is hilarious and impressive in equal measure as they push each other to new heights of vocal dexterity.

As the sketch goes on, the competition escalates, with both performers pulling out all the stops to impress the judges and win the coveted title of "best mouth-noise maker in the world." The tension builds to a climax as McFerrin and Winslow face off in a final round where they must perform a medley of popular songs using only their vocal abilities.

The result of the competition is both surprising and satisfying, and the sketch stands as a shining example of the show's ability to combine sharp satire with impressive technical skill.

After the McFerrin vs Winslow sketch, the episode winds down with a few more sketches, including a hilarious parody of the classic horror movie "The Shining" and a commercial for a basketball training program called "Hingle McCringleberry's Excessive Celebration Academy."

Overall, Key & Peele season 1 episode 6 is a standout installment of the show, showcasing the duo's talent for combining smart social commentary with impressive technical skill. The McFerrin vs Winslow sketch is a must-see for anyone who appreciates impressive vocal performances or just loves a good laugh.
