Brian Williams spits rhymes on “Rapper’s Delight”…and it is freaking awesome

Late night show host Jimmy Fallon is riding high on his first week as the new host of Jay Leno’s old job.

On tonight’s episode of The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, the 39-year old comedian/movie star took thing to the next level. Producers went into the vaults of NBC’s Nightly News to do a Jib-Jab workout on the news anchor’s reporting. What they did was genius. They spooled together Sugarhill Gang’s “Rapper’ Delight.” Certainly it doesn’t sound right on paper, but it came together like a cozy glove on hand. And wait ’til you see the guest cameos in the clip.
