Video: The Roots Perform The Other Side on Fallon
The house band took the stage on Jimmy’s Late Night to perform a cut from their incredibly dope 13th album, undun with a little help from Bilal and Greg Porn. In other Roots news, it’s now said that NBC will be screening the songs that ?uesto and the crew play, be it for performances or just guest segways. The reason being the other night when Fallon introduced presidential candidate Michelle Bachmann the group proceeded to play a tune by the name of Lyin’ass Bitch by Fishbone. Hilarious to me, she didn’t seem to think so though.

Juan Epstein ft. ?uestlove and Black Thought
For those who don’t know Juan Epstein is a podcast done by Peter Rosenberg and Cipha Sounds of Hot 97 where they get together and talk shit, with their celebrity guests they tend to delve pretty deep into the nerdy side of hip hop and tell great stories.
For those that are fans you know how long awaited a ?uestlove episode was. He’s like our hip hop historian haha.
