Jimmy Fallon Hip Hop History

I was listening to a talk show the radio the other morning while driving to school when the host started talking about last night's episode of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Apparently, Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake performed a duet of a history of hip hop music, which obviously made a buzz. After explaining what happened on last night's show, the radio station played the entire three minute sound bite of the show on the radio.

Though I heard the entire clip, I wanted to see it too. So, after having listened to the radio while listening to a TV clip, I found the clip on YouTube so I could both see and hear it. And, if I really wanted to, I could have found the entire Jimmy Fallon episode on my TV because I have DVR and record the show every night anyway. But instead, I'm choosing to blog about it.

It's interesting how one 3 three minute clip can travel in so many mediums in so little time. But it's also not surprising how little videos like this create such a buzz within hours of them airing.
