Questlove, Prince & A$AP Rocky Were All Featured As 'Jeopardy!' Answers Last Night

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

I cant say Ive tuned into Jeopardy! in the last 10 or so years, but clearly theyre trying to win back a certain demo here. While having Jeopardy! answers that land in the world of urban music is nothing new (as Pitchfork mentions, there was a Kanye answer last week), it seems like theyve been going extra hard as of late. During last nights episode, in the My Name Is Symbolic Category the answers featured Prince, A$AP Rocky, and none other than Questlove.

Im not sure if any of the contestants got that A$AP Rocky question right, but Im fairly amazed to see it there. Shoutout to TJ with the no hesitation Questlove buzz-in. Score one for hip-hop I guess? Check the questions below, which I should hope would be lay-up's for anyone reading this blog.
