And Then There Was That Time The Roots Slow-Jammed The News With The President

Last night’s Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, filmed at a theater on the campus of UNC-Chapel Hill, was probably the most liberal arts college-y talk show of all time. The two guests? POTUS Barack Obama, and Dave Matthews. And while the latter was just as awful as always, the prez came out before his interview to do a little campaign slow-jam with Jimmy and The Roots. It may not be funnier than Ladysmith Snack Mambazo, but it was certainly cooler.

    Good to know he has a gig lined up when his ass has to vacate DC next January.

    I’d like to see Mitt Romney try that.

    Every time I see a spot like this is just reminds me how much of a joke the Roots are anymore.
