Even though I'm a couple nights late, I'd be remiss not to show this late night TV performance some love. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis performed "Thrift Shop" with help from The Roots on Jimmy Fallon. This one's a straight jam session - look how much fun everyone is having playing and enjoying the music. Love the energy.
In this quick interview above with Hip Hollywood, Questlove simply states that, "you’re gonna get a new Roots album late 2013."
Great news for fans of the band, who should expect to see them continuing their late night gig with Jimmy Fallon leading up to another album's release. I hope it's along the concept lines of undun.
The other night on FOX's hilarious Cleveland Show, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj, Bruno Mars, ?uestlove, and Will.i.am all appeared as guest stars on "Menace II Secret Society" - a controversial episode that is playing up the much-talked about Illuminati. The music stars are a part of the secret society (Kanye as 'Kenny West', his previous character) and Cleveland joins and helps.
I'm intrigued to sit down and watch the episode above. For those who did, what did you think of the hip hop illuminati episode?
The first photo of Bruno Mars, Questlove, Will.i.am, & Nicki Minaj on the upcoming Cleveland Show can be seen above. Hah, it's always funny to see these big names as cartoon characters.
The premise is that Cleveland discovers a secret hip-hop society fronted by Kanye West. Bruno Mars, Questlove, will.i.am, and Nicki Minaj are seen wearing cloaks as part of the secret group that controls pop culture.
Hmm, what do you think of this concept? The episode airs on October 21st.
