Aesop Rock Makes His TV Debut Performing "Dorks" Live On The Late Show
This one was a long time coming. After over 20 years of recording music, underground hip-hop mainstay Aesop Rock just made his network television debut last night. Aesop served as the musical guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Making sure to make the most of the moment, Aesop brought along Yo La Tengo to serve as the backing band for his performance of his track “Dorks” - watch it below.
