Jimmy Fallon, was able to snag a very high profile guest for his show this past Tuesday with President Obama joining him on his Late Night show.  Before sitting down for an interview, Obama dazzles the crowd by joining Jimmy for a round of Slow Jam the News.  I may not be a huge fan of his policies, but I really enjoy his personality and the way he interacts with the public.  He just seems like a good man, that loves his family and loves his country.  Thanks to Jimmy's creativity, Obama's stone cold presence, and the Roots sweet jams, [...]

Things got extra wild on last night's episode, as President Obama made a guest appearance to literally "slow jam" the news. Complete with the Roots behind him, as well as Fallon, Obama, and Black Thought exchanging vocal duties, this one will certainly go down in history as a classic piece of television. The topic, of course, was fighting Congress from allowing interest rates on government-subsidized college loans from [...]

This is awesome. I'm still laughing...

Never a dull moment on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon . Last night, the late night host visited the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where one special guest happened to be, as well: President Barack Obama. In addition to slow jamming the news with The Roots, in which Obama aptly digressed on student loans, the once-in-a-lifetime performance was also supported by two appearances by Dave Matthews.
