Hip hop group The Roots really don’t like Michele Bachmann apparently. The band offered up an apparent musical editorial on the Republican’s presidential campaign as she took the stage to talk to NBC late night host JImmy Fallon on Monday, playing a few bars of Fishbone’s “Lyin’ Ass Bitch.”
New York Magazine notes that the band has a history of taking jabs at guests via their choice of walk-on music, meaning the pick was likely not a coincidence [see update: they made their intent clear on Twitter]. Take a look at the video.
Update: Roots drummer Questlove laid it out pretty clear last night on Twitter:
“Aight late night walkon song devotees: you love it when we snark: this next one takes the cake. ask around cause i aint tweeting title.”
