PRINCE Set To Perform On Late Night With Jimmy Fallon!!!

Questlove and myself have been hinting about it for weeks but we can now finally say that PRINCE is set to perform on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon on Friday, March 1st! 3/1/13!

This will be PRINCE's first performance on Fallon's show.

Jimmy & Questlove are big time PRINCE fans. Some would say that Quest is the biggest fan of them all. One thing is for sure, it is gonna be awesome!

We wonder if Jimmy will interview PRINCE and talk to him about the PRINCEtagram from last week.

PRINCE will be in town for a Carnegie Hall Tribute to him hosted by Questlove. He will be in attendance.

We are hoping for an interview and perhaps Jimmy and PRINCE going one and one at table tennis!

The image we are using showed up in our mailbox.  Thank U.

When we have more details on the performance, we will let U know!-DocFB

Diagnosis: Late Night & New York, Are U Ready????

Brian Williams stopped by Late Night With Jimmy Fallon and you know they had to slow jam the news.

This one had to do with the fiscal cliff, a soft Bohner, and a little bit of Salt n Peppa'.

Check out the clip above.-DocFB

Fiona Apple Gets Older; Performs “Anything We Want” With The Roots + McCartney Song! Watch Now!


Fiona Apple performed "Anything We Want" with The Roots backing her up on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last night and the singer was amazing and....looking somewhat older.

I mean, we saw footage of her by SXSW earlier this year and she didn't look like this. She performed new material from "The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than The Driver of The Screw And Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Will Ever Do" or the shorter title "The Idler Wheel" and it went over well with the crowd.

Fiona also did a weird interview with Fallon bringing a pool ball with her to the interview.

In honor of Paul McCartney's birthday, the singer covered "Let Me Roll It" with The Roots backing her up.

I am digging her new song but what is catching your attention more; her sound or how much older she looks?-DocFB

Video:Jimmy Fallon & The Roots Perform “Call Me Maybe” With Carly Rae Jepson


We are calling it now! "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepson will be the summer song of 2012. I know some of you are going to call me crazy. The proof however, is above.

Carly Got Jimmy Fallon and The Roots to perform the song with them after she appeared on the show to sing it herself. It doesn't hurt that she is going to be touring with Justin Bieber. The bonus is when you have Questlove blowing a Kazoo for you.

It is very cool that they used classroom instruments to play the track as well.

The song may be repetitive but you know it is catchy as heaven. How can you hate it?

Check it out above and let us know what you think.-DocFB

Diagnosis: No Kazoo For You!

Here is the performance that wanted them to play with Carly Rae Jepson.

Video: Snoop Dogg & Wiz Khalifa Perform With The Roots

Snoop Dog and Wiz Khalifa performed "Young, Wild, & Free" with The Roots on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

They cleaned up the song a little bit but it still has its cool funk and when you throw in The Roots as your backing band, you know it is going to be hot!

Check out the video above.  It is hard not to funk side to side while listening to it.-DocFB

Diagnosis:  When you live like this you are supposed to party.....
