That’s Diversification
Just a quick thought regarding The Roots. Within the past year, this band has:
- Recorded a song featuring the singer from Fall Out Boy and made a video for it starring a porn star
- Recorded a track and appearance for the kid’s show Yo Gabba Gabba
- Likely accepted the house band gig for the Jimmy Fallon show, which replaces Conan O’Brien this March
In this economy, that’s the way to ensure your future career options.

Well, it’s Gawker, so you never know if that’s truth. But it would kinda be cool.

Parker like to watch Noggin, but doesn’t like Yo Gabba Gabba. Cathy apparently told him once that the show was “Too weird” and now any time it come on or I even mention it he says “No, Daddy. Yo Gabba Gabba is too weird!”

@Candice - INTERNETZ RUMORZ ARE ALWAYS TROOTH!
@Jim - Oh, I can see where Parker gets that; that video made me give the “confused dog” look more than once. Get them hooked young, though, and they’ll stick with you.

And it looks like the entire band is in there, too. Good to see.
