Justin Timberlake Joins With Jimmy Fallon in The Most Amazing Medley

If you’ve ever thought anything along the lines of “You know what would be a good thing?  If Justin Timberlake were to cover several of the most popular hip-hop songs ever,” then you are in luck.  Toss Jimmy Fallon in there, and I think I just made your dreams come true.

While JT was on Jimmy Fallon’s show to promote The Social Network, the boys ended up talking about the Sugarhill Gang, and from there they launched into what I think is one of the most powerful musical performances of the year.  The duo performed snippets of songs like “California Love” by Tupac, “Work It” by Missy Elliot, and Kanye’s “Gold Digger,” before finishing up with “Empire State of Mind.”  And it was just as magical as it sounds.

I think this performance proves two things:  Justin Timberlake needs to do the world a favor and come back to music, and Jimmy Fallon needs to stick solely to music.   Music is the only thing Jimmy Fallon can give to society.  I think it’s because he has to focus too much on technique and timing to consistently break character.
