Brian Williams Covers Ludacris' "Rollout" (My Business)

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

NBC Nightly News anchor and slow jam aficionado Brian Williams returns with a cover of Ludacris' "Rollout" (My Business) from the good folks at Porterhouse Media. The mash of video clips from formal news broadcasts features a chopped and reworked Williams rocking a more sedate version of the DTP frontman's standout recording live from the anchor's desk. The clip follows a recent conversation between Williams and Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon, during which the beloved news man mentioned a desire to cover a Ludacris track. While this edit is decidedly awesome, it will be very interesting to see how our friends at The Tonight Show respond. In my humble opinion, it should involve Williams, Luda and The Roots. Check the footage below to watch Brian Williams cover Ludacris. Stay tuned for more.
