Lin-Manuel Miranda freestyled Jimmy Fallon’s epic voicemail message
Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda is clearly no stranger to epic duels. Friday on The Tonight Show, the MacArthur genius took on The Roots' Tariq Trotter in a new game called Wheel of Freestyle.
Naturally, the Broadway phenom held his own. Watch him somehow not come up empty when tasked with incorporating the terms dinosaur, pumpkin pie, and Darth Vader into the same freestyle rap.
Jimmy Fallon also benefited personally from Miranda's neat skill. After the host bid the highest on a charity auction item, Fallon earned a freestyle voicemail message recorded by Miranda himself. Check out the end result below. Julie Kliegman
