http://kmedia.m.nbc.com/54153/...4af5cAmazing video clip from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon featuring a 3-minute mashup by Jimmy Fallon, Justin Timberlake, and Roots (LNwJF house band) that aired on the show broadcast early morning on 9/30/2010I'm certainly not a fan of rap or hip-hop music, but this is amazing, and even I recognized many of the songs.Note that this link to the video buffers, so if you have a slow internet connection or a slow computer, it will take a while to load, but will then play smoothly once about half of the clip is loaded.Jimmy Fallon mentioned on Twitter that the link may not stay active long, due to short-term music licensing. It's also unlikely to legally appear and remain on YouTube, again because of licensing restrictions.And if you'd like to start the 'President Jimmy Fallon 2012' committee to recognize Jimmy for doing the most fun, upbeat, creative entertainment show in the history of television, I'm there!
