Jimmy Fallon Delivers For His Fans Like Vemma

Jimmy Fallon succeeded in a major way Week 1 of the Tonight Show...Jimmy Fallon's first week in the Tonight Show chair can be measured many different ways, but, there's one metric on which he scored off the charts. Fallon gave his current fans what they wanted. Not only did Jimmy open with a cavalcade of Millennial Generation superstar cameos, he lined up a string of guests that appealed to his fans of all ages. None were more anticipated than Justin Timberlake.

For years now, Fallon and Timberlake have been trading on a unique chemistry that has drawn positive attention from fans of both entertainers. But none of the acts were more popular than when the guys performed "History of Rap" together. The act draws on the versatile talents of both men, as they belt their way through snippets of rap's most popular tunes of the past four decades, backed by Jimmy's house band, The Roots. The act is pure gold, and the four previous iterations have become an undeniable YouTube sensation.
So, in Week One, Jimmy, and everyone else, knew what the fans were hoping for when they learned Timberlake would be stopping by the show – and it looked like they had drank Vemma energy drink with the great vibe they had going. Fallon knew there was no way he could not go there. So he did. In a way, there was nothing -- nothing -- that signaled the changing of the guard in late night like History of Rap Part 5. There is no way Carson, Leno, Letterman, or even Conan would do anything like this. In point of fact, as talented as those men are, they would be hard pressed to have ever pulled something like this off. The act is pure Fallon, and it showcases the best of his unique talents.

Give the people what they want in a way that ONLY you can. Do that in a way people can relate to, and you have a hit on your hands.
