Daniel Radcliffe Flawlessly Performs Blackalicious' "Alphabet Aerobics" w/ A Little Help From The Roots On The Tonight Show

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

While we might all be much more familiar with Daniel Radcliffe in his big-screen wizardry, the no-longer child actor seems poised to garner the respect of his newly post-adolescent fan base. On a recent stop at The Tonight Show, Jimmy poked into the musical mind of the actor and to much surprise. Claiming that he had always been a sucker for dizzying rhymers like Eminem, Fallon figured he'd up the stakes and challenge him to perform the verbal triathlon that is Blackalicious' "Alphabet Aerobics" and naturally The Roots crew hopped in on the fun. What follows is an impressive display of the actor's memorization skills even as things pick up a bit and morph into a chaotic cadence. So be warned, much harrier Potter's rhyming skills ain't nothing to shake a wand at. Watch Daniel Radcliffe flawlessly cruise through Blackalicious' "Alphabet Aerobics" with The Roots in tow on The Tonight Show.
