R&B songstress Alicia Keys hit the stage on ‘The Colbert Report’ last evening. The singer performed ‘Empire State Of Mind (Part 2)’ alongside the show’s host who chimed in with an original rap segment. Keys’ new album, ‘The Element Of Freedom’ hit stores yesterday, December 15th.

That was hilarious! Alicia remained completely focused on the performance while Colbert spit rhymes about how the suburban air was “good for his asthma.” I actually enjoy ‘Empire State Of Mind (Part 2)’ just as much as the original, although there is almost a 180 degree difference between the two. Very good indeed.

Thoughts?
