Brian Williams Slow Jams the News About Immigration Reform on The Tonight ...

We all know Brian Williams can rap, but did you know he could slow jam, too?!

The NBC Nightly News anchor showed off his soulful side on Tuesday's Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. There, Williams teamed up with the late-night host and The Roots to slow jam the news of what's happening with President Barack Obama's immigration reform.

This time, though, the veteran journalist was musical without the help of clever editing. Meaning? He actually joined Fallon and The Roots in Studio 6B, and-get ready-even sang a riff on Sir Mix-a-Lot' s 'Baby Got Back!'

With help from Fallon and The Roots, Williams summed up Obama's executive order and the new protections it provides for undocumented individuals with American-born children and undocumented individuals who've been in the U.S. at least five years. (As the president himself put it, 'If you've been in America for more than five years; if you have children who are American citizens or legal residents; if you register, pass a criminal background check, and you're willing to pay your fair share of taxes-you'll be able to apply to stay in this country temporarily, without fear of deportation.')

Obama directly addressed 'those members of Congress who question my authority' to pass this immigration reform, telling him he had 'one answer: Pass a bill.'

Fallon, Questlove and Williams summed this up beautifully, going, 'My Pres. Obama don't want none until you pass bills, hon!'

Ha! So, what was it that promoted Williams' in-person visit to the Tonight Show? Tuesday marked his 10-year anniversary at the NBC Nightly News' anchor desk, or, as Fallon called the program, 'the 16th hour of the Today show!'
