Suzanne Vega x The Roots “Tom’s Diner” (Live)

Thursday April 8, 2010 by: Sean

Suzanne Vega recently stopped by Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and performed a live rendition of her timeless hit "Tom's Diner," featuring none other than The Roots. With such a classic song, you might wonder if hearing a live version more than 20 years after it's release would still sound as good as it once did. I answer that with a resounding YES. Full video after the break.

Last night on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, the Clipse performed their single "Back by Popular Demand" as well as their classic hit "Grindin'" backed by none other than The Roots. Stealing the spotlight however was Black Thought, who spit a verse over both tracks outshining the duo in my opinion. Check out the performances after the break.

Honestly this dude Jimmy Fallon's musical guest selection is better than any other talk show out there.  This cover of "Iris" will be featured on Boyz II Men's latest album entitled "Love," which features covers of songs by The Beatles, Chicago and The Spinners. The "Love" album is in stores now.

If you're a night owl like myself, then you've probably seen The Roots jamming a few times or so on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. If that's the case, then you've also probably heard snippets of the tracks they play as the show goes in and out of commercial breaks. Well those tracks are called "Sandwiches" and Questlove has been generous to bless us with a number of those little gems which have been compiled ...

Taking a short break from their current gig on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, The Legendary Roots Crew will set out on a small tour for the 2009 Holiday Season.

Thursday November 26, 2009 by: Brian

Why they haven't made another album? I have no idea.  Blackstar, Mos Def and Talib Kweli, appeared on Jimmy Fallon's show last night to perform "History," which can be found on Mos' hip-hop album of the year (yea I said it), "The Ecstatic." Before venturing out on their own remarkable solo careers, Mos and Talib came in the game together as Blackstar. If you don't know your history, here's a couple tracks to get you ...
