Jimmy Fallon wisely farms out #SpringBreakRaps to The Roots' Tariq
Jimmy Fallon normally reads out his own Hashtag selections — tweets using a hashtag he suggested — but on Thursday night's Tonight Show he handed that responsibility over to Tariq Trotter in his house band, The Roots. Most of the #SpringBreakRaps tweets are about what you'd expect — drinking, hooking up, regret — but there are a few pleasant surprises thrown in. My favorite: "Gonna trash the hotel / We won't clean up the mess / Leave your town black and blue / Like a white and gold dress." So, nice work, @edillades. Watch that and the other tweet raps artfully performed by Tariq and the band below. —Peter Weber
